optical Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 We'll i got the chance to shoot a G27 the other day as well as feel the G23. (27 had the mag grip extension) Will be making a purchase this friday but am torn between the two. They both feel nice in my hand. any suggestions that would pull you one way or the other with these 2 guns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 the g27 is very small its my daily carry piece actually but for shooting it alot its a snappy thing. I dont carry it with the grip extension on it but that pretty much mackes the grip feel about the same as a g23.

CJ18 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I have both. I am currently carrying the 23 daily. I used to carry the 27, but I picked up a 23 because I like having the extra 4 rds. I do prefer having the grip extension on the 27 since I have big hands and it allows be to get a full grip on the weapon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optical Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) It was pretty snappy but seemed very accurate. I wish i would have got to shoot the g23 but didnt have much time. I plan to carry but not for a few months or when i become comfortable with it. Smoke i believe carries the 23 daily as well, im sure he will chime in soon.

CJ18 Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I personally like the 23 better, I feel that I am more accurate with it, and it is much more comfortable to practice with at the range than the 27. The 23 is also a bit heavier. I am 6'5'' 245lbs, so a little extra weight on my belt doesnt bother me at all, but it is something to consider.

I have a feeling i am going to go with the 23 just because i want to eventually carry it and i am way more comfortable shooting with the full grip. of the 23's i held one had a mod under the trigger where it was sanded and that felt a little nicer than factory.

Have you done anything to yours? So far I have added a heavier guide rod and 3.5lb connector. I have not gotten to the range since I made the changes yet though.

I believe the mods i will start with are night sights and as i become comfortable with it and learn some more i may try other things but for now i just want to improve my accuracy and respect for it.
