So my buddy is the range master for the police department in the town I grew up in. The cops have their own small range in the building and he runs it. So I finally took him up on his offer to go shoot some police weapons there. Here is what I shot

H&K .40

H&K UMP-40

Ruger .40 cal carbine

Shottie. I didn't get the model I was too excited to shoot to pay attention.

Glock 23

SW .40 similar to this.
Here is a picture of my target at 15 feet first two mags in the H&K .40 pistol (the instructor mad the smiley at 21 feet):

Here is a video of me full auto on the UMP:

This was only my fourth time ever shooting weapons and the first time with these. At 25 yards I put 4 out of 12 in a 1/3 size Q target with the H&K .40. At 21 feet I put 10 of 12 in the 1/3 Q target with the H&K .40.

The carbine is not tactical at all so the police don't like it, but it's accurate as hell. At 25 yards all 9 rounds went in the dome.

I had a lot of fun. Definitely buying a hand gun in the next year. Probably .40 cal then I can just steal all the cop ammo I want. Maybe the glock G22 or a Para model.

I really appreciate how difficult it is to fire these weapons accurately and correctly. I give you military guys a lot of props, I can't imagine operating these weapons safely and correctly under stress. It would require a lot of training.

honestly if your not getting the 9, go for the .45 it actually has less recoil than the .40. dont know why but i have shot them both side by side and the 45 actually had alot less recoil

[Pete]

The reason I am looking at the .40 is because .40 ammo may be more available to me at a serious discount. Wink wink.
