Frequently Asked Questions

How can I improve my accuracy with a Glock .40 Gen 1 at 25 yards?

Focus on smooth trigger control, maintaining a consistent sight picture and sight alignment. Practice deliberate follow-through after each shot and be mindful of the .40 S&W's recoil, which may require a slightly slower pace than 9mm for optimal accuracy.

What are the key differences in shooting .40 S&W versus 9mm?

The .40 S&W caliber generally produces more felt recoil than 9mm. This means you might need to adjust your shooting pace, focus more on recoil management, and ensure a firm grip for consistent accuracy, especially during rapid fire sequences.

What are the characteristics of a Glock Gen 1 frame?

The Gen 1 Glock frames, like the one on the Glock .40 Gen 1 shown, are characterized by a smooth surface with minimal to no texture. They also typically feature plastic stock sights, distinguishing them from later generations with enhanced grip features and improved sights.

What is the importance of follow-through in shooting?

Follow-through is critical for accuracy. It involves maintaining your sight alignment and trigger press even after the shot breaks. This ensures that any residual movement from the shot doesn't disrupt your aim, leading to tighter shot groups.
