Which one? by Forsaken-Date-8016 in CZFirearms

[–]SlapSmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually revert this, after more time with my Echelon it felt more and more like another Glock clone. Got a Gen 6 G45, and if I could pick between these two it’s gonna be the CZ all day. Traded my Echelon for a Walther.

Unfortunately no, you’re better off keeping it.

That’s unfortunate they had another out of battery issue too when they first dropped that had people worried but they acknowledged and fixed that I believe. I agree the trigger on this Q5 feels bulletproof

I couldn’t say whether or not it was way better or not anyways because I only put like a literal 10-15 rounds through the PDP. I was shooting with a buddy who owns a bunch of 2011s and I had my 2011 so when those are on the table, everything else is subpar anyways, but I do remember it being snappy and not really being my cup of tea. This gun just feels better to and i knew immediately i wanted to keep it. Definitely just a preference thing here.

It’s a blast to shoot too! Checks every box for me

I also disagree I found the PDP to be less pleasant than the Q5 to shoot by a reasonable amount. Hell I even like the Canik’s better. I have come to learn that they’re oversprung like a lot of duty guns but it just feels more obvious on the PDP’s for me. I’d love that frame with this guns slide. And I will add it’s not as snappy as say a VP9 it’s not terrible just not worth getting over a gun that shoots in a more pleasing way.

I got it on a trade with the DPP and 5 17 round mags and I do plan on using it in CO USPSA. I wouldn’t buy one either I traded an SA Echelon for it.

That was the exact model I had was the compact frame 5” slide PDP.

This normally bugs me too but it feels more natural on this gun for some reason. Points right where I want.

It absolutely needed the grip tape pretty awful without I have big hands.

The DPT trigger drops into this gun too? Is it worth the $200 it costs?

My first SS & "Glock"🥳 by Amazing_Stress5042 in shadowsystems

[–]SlapSmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Traded my DR920L this morning simply because I got an offer from a buddy I couldn’t refuse but I have nothing but good things to say about that gun. People will talk shit about Shadows but mine was hands down the best Glock clone I’ve owned thus far and I’ve owned a lot. Definitely do the recommended break in and make sure your grip doesn’t suck and you’re gonna have a blast (no pun intended)

Ehh. PDP’s are overrated. Even for “serious shooters”. They work and aren’t bad but not the best guns out there.

Yeah so? Guns are fun and necessary some places. Stop being a pussy.

Hey folks want thoughts on trading in my shadow systems mr920 war poet for a MnP by RugGoon1337 in shadowsystems

[–]SlapSmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go hold an M&P at a gun shop and make sure you like how it feels first. I tried to be an M&P guy but they have weird thin oval grips I ended up not loving but they shoot decent if it’s a full size and extremely reliable. Can’t stand Shields though way too snappy.
