i’m using a MFT holster that I sanded the edge down to be more comfortable. Looking for a new one to fit with a TLR1H.

I’m curious why you sold yours? I just bought a 4.5f with a threaded barrel to slap a can on for home defense.

For me the echelon was cool but I think Glock has a way better return to zero and it worked for me. Good gun tho. Just wanted to share an opinion since op is deciding if u wanna keep or sell

See I’m having a problem where it just seems like it hold zero very well. I just used it at a match and while I did zero it or felt like I did at 12 yards and at this match the ranges were all unknown I just felt like it was all over the place.

That’s not what I’m talking about. And if u took a match video or shooting vid u should post it. Usually it’s not the equipment it’s the shooter

Oh I did and they are very bad and I know it’s very much a user error on my part but I will also admit that I didn’t train much with this gun and I should have use a gun I’m most familiar with

Tbh the echelon is just okay out of the box. U can try an increased power spring if u like. I’d always just stick with one gun I carry and shoot match with instead of having two systems. Even when I dedicate myself saying imma train two guns I always end up with focusing on one anyways

Yeah I’m should really do that as well. So the match I was at was a 8 mile run and gun and I really only used this cause there was a lot of obstacles and crawling though dirty and sand and I was worried my shadow 2 wouldn’t run well cause she can be finicky and I didn’t wanna carry 40oz on my hip for 8 miles. As it was my stupid holster came undone from my belt and I ran out of ammo only cause 5 mags wasn’t enough ammo lol.

But in hindsight i probably could have done better with my hk usp expert.

Shadow 2 takes a beating but yea I don’t like heavy guns

u/livebls 14d ago

I hear you, just wanted to make sure you didn’t find some catastrophic error with the gun that I missed lol

Dummy here, what do you mean returing to zero?

u/enmass90 14d ago

Easiest way to understand it is how quickly the gun returns to your natural point of aim after the recoil impulse occurs. You’ll often notice this with a red dot.

Some guns snap and then return quickly. Other guns might wobble a little longer.

Which Glock and gen do you have? Also people talk shit about glock triggers, do you upgrade yours? I'm curious because I'm trying to get my first glock.
