If you are going to make your gun bigger so that you can hold it properly, maybe you should find a bigger gun to start with.
This 26 is perfect with the extension and pinky grip. It feels great to hold. It feels even better when firing. There's no need for me to purchase a larger pistol when this one is perfect with a simple mod.

If you like it and you want to buy it, more power to you.

Generally speaking, small guns are harder to shoot well than big guns.

And yes, you're right. Even though I'd say the 43x and 26 are close in size, the 43x kicks much harder. First time I shot it in the backyard, I was surprised just how much kick there was from that little thing.

Technique is key. I carry a full size M&P without a problem.

If you want, I can show you how to fit a big gun in your pants.

I wear skinny jeans!


Side note, I HATE my M&P. If that magazine jams one more time while loading, I'm gonna throw it in the Mississippi River. I like the laser. Hate the gun. I'm going to sell mine.

Really? Mine are damn near perfect.

Could be just that one mag is out of spec. Shit happens and sometimes parts leave the factory out of spec.

If you do sell it, do it now while the prices are still elevated. Prices are dropping quickly.

Asking $500. I think that's fair price. I hardly every used it. Had one guy interested in it for his girlfriend. I asked him for her information to run a background check on her and he said that I was weird for wanting to do that and he was no longer interested. I won't sell a gun without doing my due diligence.

Sell it through a FFL. That way, the shop has to do the work. You'll lose about 40% of the price, but you gain piece of mind.

I do have to say that although I don't like small guns, I do like my Sig P365XL. It seems to be just the right size so I can get a full grip on it, yet it is easy to conceal.

There has been a shortage for awhile, but it finally seems to be easing up. Stock seems to be building and prices are actually coming back down. Try Ammoseek (https://ammoseek.com/) or one of the other search engines that looks for gun stuff like https://gun.deals/

When buying guns if you have a local FFL you can always go down the rabbit hole and look for guns on Gunbroker.com. They have everything there.

Sexy ass gun.
A good choice though I kind of like that eggshell blue colour and of course you're right in doing checks before selling any unwanted weapons, that last fellow was very suspicious walking away when you wanted to check.

Not willing to lose up to 40% on it just yet. It’ll stay for now. Guns are like shoes, can never have too many.

Right? I already live in a high crime city. Not looking to add to that if I can help it.

For what? Im pleased with the opportunities at the shooting range or competetive matches. There are few guns to shoot on my list but I dont feel to rush.
