Went to the range today with my son. We had the following:
Hi-Point .40
Glock 21 .45ACP
KelTeck KSG
20 year old Winchester 1300 Defender Wood stock.
4-26 round KCI magazines for the Glock
2-30 round KRISS magazines for the Glock
6 rounds of .50 BMG – 12 gauge sabot
30 rounds Winchester rifled slugs.
First, the obvious. The Hi-Point has an occasional trigger linkage malfunction. It has to go back to Hi-Point for repair. 15 rounds and we gave up. Nice gun when it fired.
Glock 21. The two factory 13 round magazines worked perfectly. The two KRISS 30 round magazines also worked perfectly. Of the 4 Korean made KCI magazines, two worked perfectly, one had a stovepipe failure, and one had an unusual "failure" in that when the last round was fired, the gun did not lock in the open position, but the magazine did fall out of the gun!
The .50BMG Sabot rounds fired with much less kick from the Winchester than I expected, and traveled downrange with more accuracy than I expected. Only one round keyholed at 50 yards. These rounds were only fired from the Winchester.
The KSG drew a lot of attention. It fired well, but I do need to add better sights to it as it was difficult to aim accurately. It kicks like a mule since it is so light. 14 rounds were fired from the KSG and that is all my arm could take. There was one failure to cycle, which I believe was caused by the selector switch being bumped out of position, and one failure to load, which is cause by short cycling. Both being operator error. A front grip can be attached to the lower front rail and I highly recommend it. I would add high sights and no optics at all to this due to the kick it gives.
The Winchester finshed off the slugs, and it worked like a champ. It was my very first long gun and I take care of it.
