The G3 is a pistol perhaps not best suited to folks with smaller hands. Something I immediately noticed is that the grip is slightly fat. If I didn’t know better, I’d assume I was shooting a far more expensive gun. The pistol is comfortable to hold and run and is easily controllable for fast shooting strings. The recoil impulse is about what I’d expect, no different from my G19 really, and despite the fact that there’s no serviceable “gas pedal” ledge for my support-hand thumb the muzzle rise was not bad at all. Were the takeup shorter, I’d take this trigger on my EDC gun any day (but it is so very long).įor the first couple of shooting strings the long trigger press led me to shoot rather low (owing to the fact that my trigger mechanics are deeply ingrained muscle memory specific to my EDC gun’s triger), but once I fixed MY flaw, things evened out and I had no trouble at all keeping rounds where I wanted them. Length of travel aside, it’s quite a nice trigger very soft up to the wall and then a less-than-5lb break. The overall experience was virtually as nice as shooting any similar Springfield or Sig! The very first thing I noticed, however, was that the trigger takeup to the wall is looonnnng. Price: ~$345 (often found in the mid-to-high $200s)ĭespite the fact that it’s a “budget gun,” I really enjoyed shooting this pistol.Capacity: 10, 15 or 17 rounds (with extended magazine).Slide: Stainless steel (black matte ?).Sights: 3-dot: Front fixed, rear drift adjustable.Action: Single Action w/Re-strike capability.Safety: Manual thumb lever (left side only) and trigger tab.Roughly the same length, height, and width of a Glock 19, this pistol feels and behaves like many of its more expensive brethren. The price (typically somewhere under $300) is as low as I could ever imagine for a pistol like this, so if you are a fan of Glock or Springfield or Sig medium-sized pistols, but don’t want the $500+ price tag, the G3 would seem to have been made for you. features and performance is about as good as I’ve ever seen on a pistol. As my review here should indicate, the price vs. I supposed the best reason to consider the G3 is for its value.
