I decided last week with my tiny bit of free time to take out all my handguns and test fire them at 15 yards with 50 rounds each just to see which one was "more accurate" (by more accurate i mean which one I shot better in an indoor range, temperature controlled and literally 0 stress or pressure)
All pistols are 100% OEM parts minus sites on the glocks and the Walther PPQ. (all substitute sights are Trijicon HD's with the yellow front site)
The list in no particular order:
Glock 45
Glock 19 gen 3
Glock 19 gen 4
Sig P320c RX
Sig P320c
Sig P320sc
Sig P365
Walther PPS m2
Walther PPQ m2
Kimber Custom II
Colt Government
My most accurate in order are:
Sig P320c
Sig P320 RX (I think i need more practice with a reflex sight, this is my first experience with them)
Glock 19 gen 4
Glock 19 Gen 3
Kimber Custom II
Glock 45
Sig P365
Sig P320sc
Walther PPS m2
Walther PPQ m2
Colt Government (shes very old, very worn and wasn't taken care of very well. I inherited it)
now, the top 5 accuracy differences are minimal. The 45 was WAAY off.. I went from 2 inch groupings to "bird shot" (though all were center mass)
All of them are accurate enough to carry on a daily, but lets face it, we are never a "good enough" shot.
even though the walther has the best trigger I've ever fired in a striker fired pistol, I'm not really used to it so it kinda threw me with how DIFFERENT it is. I DO love their standard 3 dot sites, though the PPQ sites are flimsy plastic (like glocks OEM) The big white circles just jump out at you and slap your eyes they scream "SEE ME!" and you definitely see them.
the 1911's surprised me, i was expecting them to be 1 and 2 (though i really didn't know what i was getting into with the colt until I did a full field strip before I left for the range)
the P320 also surprised me, I was not expecting to shoot it the best, I was thinking the 19's would be the most accurate as I have been shooting them the longest. Also, Reflex sights on a pistol are interesting. I will have to experiment more with them and see if i like them long term or if I'll just stick with my iron sites. I was pleasantly surprised at the trigger and how well it preformed even after firing pistols with "superior triggers"
The subcompacts and micro pistols surprised me at how well they all preformed in comparison to the larger pistols, though 15 yards isn't all that challenging.
Also Note, I DID save the targets, however I left them in the garage on the floor and they got all soaked and destroyed thanks to the rain. Sorry no pictures
