True, I should've been more specific. I meant a G19 size with a 15 round mag.
Also, I really meant a striker pistol. The VP9 is arguably too big to CC. I think the grip customization of the P30 and VP9 hurt the mag capacity. You need the basic frame to support the side grip panels then the actual grip panels add too much thickness IMO.
The VP9SK is just a chopped off little porker that needs a pinky extension to feel right.
The p2000 is a good size if it held two more rounds. Sure, you could x-grip it to use the p30/vp9 mag but then the grip is just too long kind of like the G19X.
With the recent P30 price decrease, I was hoping the p2000 price would again come down some more. If it drops to around the $500 mark +/- I'll definitely grab one.
On the capacity point. The loss of 2 rounds on the gun I've considered and personally, if I shoot the gun better than my 19, and it requires less ****ing around with to get to where I want it to be then I might be willing to take that hit on capacity. Considering I am running a 19 now and I do shoot a DA/SA gun better still, even shooting a Glock almost exclusively for the point of training with what I fight I wouldn't lose too much sleep myself over 2 less rounds in the mag. Besides 14 rounds is still damn near twice what most of the guys I know who carry have in their pocket blasters. :) Lol.
That said, I am still waiting on the extended H&K mags for the P30 series.
The P2000 is fantastic . 2 rounds? Ok I guess but ait should be noted that the P2000 is a true 13 plus one. Nobody recommends downloading them because HK engineers a monster margin of error in their mags and they can basically be loaded to the max by and seated on a closed slide by a 90 year old lady.Years ago I ran way over 10,000 rounds of straight-up garbage monarch steel while cleaning it in puddles and sinks with zero issues. Another member here bought it and kept shooting the crap out of it. I only wish they would give it a more aggressive grip texture.
That is very true. The Glock 19 should be a 13-14 round magazine. When the base plate bulges and it stretches out the mag catch slot, the mag is overloaded.
Larry Vickers, something of a g19 fan, recommends downloading them to 14 in his class. My Lord, the CZ P10 has some of the most thumbusting mags I have ever dealt with.
