Guys, guys, PLEASE STOP IT, I have a G23 and I'm EXTREMELLY HAPPY with it.
I carry this beautiful pistol every day and go to the range every thursday and religiously shoot at least 150 rnds weekly (I take my G23 and any other one of my guns), by now I have shot more than 5000 rnds with it, and it only misfire one time when I changed the firing pin spring for a lighter one.
I have almost all the accesories for it: Titanium firing pin & plunger, lasermax, trijicom, extended mag & slide releases, 3.5# connector, 2 match target barrels (1 long ported), marine spring cups, 2 G22 Hi cap mags (15 rnds) & 1 G23 Hi cap mag (13 rnds).
I have to inform you that I mix and match all these parts when I go to the range and have never ever had a problem.
My personal choice for carry is like this: titanium firing pin & plunger, lasermax, trijicons, extended mag & slide realeases, factory barrel and factory connector and of course the Hi cap mags all around, not the factory 10 rndrs.
This pistol is so good that I'm willing to bet my life on it any time any place.
As for kabooms, I have never heard nothing more than some cheap talk in some forums.
There is no doubt that the 1911 was, is and will be a great pistol and a standard to measure performance, but you have to get over it and admit that it no longer set the rules, It had it's time but sadly it's over.
For accuracy, all I have to say is that if I need to shoot farther than 50 yds I probably use a rifle or at that distance I can avoid an encounter. At 25 yds I put all rnds inside the 8 ring with iron sigths.
Oh yea, the loads are standard factory ammo only.
This gun is so simple to clean & change parts that you only need one simple hex wrench to work it.
It is ridiculous to think of another weapon to defend yourself.
This gun is capable of shooting underwater, let me know if the 1911 can do that.
This is my baby and I worship it.
I like my SS P 220 but I prefer my G23 for carry.
