    Thanks for the update. I am still running and training exclusively with my G19 Gen 5. I’m up to 2000 rounds and no issues. The only mod I made was change out the factory night sights with Trijicon HD and found I can acquire my front sight quickly. My shooting skills have improved by focusing on this one gun. To rotate, I picked up a new G17 Gen 5 as a home defense and set it up the same as the G19. Both shoot the same and I can continue my training. I have enjoyed following your progress with your videos of your One Gun.

    Good job sticking with it brother. I picked one to really train with and it's made a big difference in my shooting in a small amount of time. I don't think I could do it for year though but it does seem to make shooting more enjoyable.

    Good info. I just bought a 19 gen 5..I admit I'm a Glock fan. I own 2 Sigs P229 in 9mm one is the SAS and the other is enhanced elite. Like them both, but I end up taking my Glock 19's to the range. It's because that's what I prefer to carry 19 or the 26.Most of the time it's one of my 19's
    Always enjoy your informative video's, keep them coming.

    I’ve had similar results ! I have moved on to the 19 gen 5 mos pretty much going to run it the same 5k rounds or so . Gen 4 mos platform has been a solid performance piece. Finding gen 5 a bit more accurate in all distance targets . I am very happy with glock because they’re starting to listen to us , the gen 5 new line up of pistols has proven that! Or the competition is on there heals taking market share away. K

    @idraw4me181 5 лет назад +1

    I find this interesting and it has me thinking as well about doing something similar mainly just because it makes sense. Just don’t know if I would chose the same gun, I would likely go with the 19 gen 5 MOS though.

    Man, I want you to do the PX4 compact shooting review, with the competition trigger. I’m on the fence whether I should buy a competition trigger group or not.
    Regardless, I have been shooting more my PX4 and have become more accurate. Same with my G 19.

    Just hard to beat the classic and versatile g19. I like the 19X the best out of my glocks but I also love my ppq M2 5” and cz p01. If I could only keep one 9mm it would probably be the g19X.

    Would you buy a gen 4 g19 to use as your 2nd Glock or would you buy another gen5 ??

    • @jhelmsing
      @jhelmsing  5 лет назад +1

      I really don't have much of a preference. The Gen 5 is supposedly slightly more reliable, but I've never had a real issue with Gen 3-4 reliabity or the finger grooves. I also have a ton of Gen 4 parts and sights lying around. I usually get blue label guns which is why I've been using the Gen 5. Both Gen 4 and 5 are with 10$ of each other with their pricing scheme.

    I like your video... But instead of 2 guns, one for range one for carry. Why not just get an extra holster that will cover the slide so you don't burn yourself. Just a thought

    • @jhelmsing
      @jhelmsing  5 лет назад +1

      I've used one, I carry iwb so there is heat sink either way. Also doesn't prevent the wear and crud build up. Thanks for the idea though. Probably with enough care it could be done.

    • @jhoodwvu
      @jhoodwvu 5 лет назад +1

      @@jhelmsing I think a big reason I can do it, even after running 250+ rounds, is the aiwb holster I use is an incog Haley strategic... Which is super thick for that carry position.

    No failures? What about when you snapped your back sight off because you had a round stick in the chamber? I would call that the king of failures. Why are you saying it hasn’t failed?

    • @jhelmsing
      @jhelmsing  5 лет назад

      It was an ammunition malfunction as the root cause, although plastic sights are a terrible idea. I did count the three ammo malfunctions in the recap.

    Yeah I think the 'my gun is better than your gun' stuff is pretty silly. I'd be willing to guess that a lot of those who always stay in that argument back an forth don't hardly shoot anything even on a 'infrequent' basis and further are the ones who say so often 'well I have this gun but I need to do something to it because it doesn't shoot well...' The reality is no dude. It's not your gun that doesn't shoot well, it's you, lol. Lot of bullshitters basically.
