I am trying to decide between a M&P 2.0 Compact, Glock 19 Gen 5, Glock 19x or Sig P320.
One of the main things I want is accuracy. I read the Army was wanting a pistol that could shoot 2 inches at 50 yards. On Beretta's website they claim their 92 can do that but I can't verify if any of the guns on my list can. I emailed Glock and S&W and all they would say is some of their guns can shoot that good but that is not their "factory" standard. If that is the standard the Army wanted why would they submit a gun that couldn't shoot that good?
There are some things I like better about each gun such as, I like the thumb safety on the M&P and the XM17, I grew up shooting 1911's. On the M&P I like the stainless slide and grip angle. Of course everyone likes Glocks, but they keep switching their slide finish, the Gen 5 had the latest greatest but now I think the 19x has something different. Sigs are great but the bore axis is higher and I don't know if they have a thumb safety on the P 320?
I know these are not target guns but I still want to hit 5in plates at 25yrds off hand like I can with my old (non tuned) 1911 or Ruger Mark II 22.
I do have a Glock that has lots of vertical play at the breech of the barrel and I have a SW SD9ve that can out shoot it 10 to 1. I have seen other Glocks that are tight as a vault. So which gun would be the most likely to be accurate out of the box?
