This video details an accuracy challenge where two individuals, Gravy Train and Smoke Wagon, test the long-range capabilities of their everyday carry (EDC) Glocks. They progressively move back in 10-yard increments to a steel target approximately 100 yards away, documenting hits and misses. The video highlights the performance of modified Glock pistols, including optics, lights, and upgraded triggers, at extended distances.

Quick Summary

EDC Glocks can achieve impressive accuracy at extended ranges. In this test, a modified Glock 19X hit a steel target at 90 yards, with the shooter confident up to 110 yards. Modifications like red dot sights and trigger upgrades are key to this performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far can an EDC Glock realistically hit a steel target?

In this test, an EDC Glock 19X with modifications like a Radian Ramjet/Afterburner and Trijicon RMR hit a steel target at 90 yards, with the shooter estimating confidence up to 110 yards. A Glock 17 Gen 5 hit at 10 yards but missed at 60 yards.

What modifications improve long-range accuracy for Glock pistols?

Upgrades like red dot sights (e.g., Trijicon RMR, Holosun 507C), compensator systems (e.g., Radian Ramjet/Afterburner), and improved triggers (e.g., Glock Performance Trigger) can significantly enhance a Glock's accuracy at extended distances.

What is the accuracy limit for a stock EDC Glock?

While stock Glocks can be accurate, this video suggests that for extended ranges like 50+ yards, modifications such as optics and trigger enhancements are crucial for consistent hits. One shooter's stock-like Glock 17 Gen 5 struggled beyond 50 yards.

How does pistol caliber affect long-range accuracy?

While this video focuses on 9mm Glocks, the principles of sight radius, shooter skill, and firearm stability are paramount. However, the inherent ballistics of 9mm limit its practical effective range compared to rifle calibers, making hits beyond 100 yards challenging but achievable with practice and the right setup.
