So he knows grip angles folks but the rest of the world doesn't. To compared a Glock grip too a CZ is a bit of a joke ... I will agree I do find that the 365 front site presents low but that goes for most pocket guns I've tried. The Sig 938 being the most natural sight alignment for me personally. I'm just not sure where he's getting all the Gibber Jabber about 1911 angles and thumbs forward vs glock and CZs.
Still waiting to hear a user consensus on this thing.
Maybe I just buy one and put it through a 5k round burn down test?

I thought about doing that during the debate we were having in a different thread. I just didn’t want to spend the money on a pistol that I did not have a lot of interest in. It’s just to small for me at my pistol shooting experience.

I just tried out a p365 yesterday. It was a rental. Put 100 rounds through it. I was surprised how comfortably it shot for its size. I did have 2 failures to go into battery fully, but the gun looked pretty dirty inside.
Just my very limited experience with it.

See you think you understand grip angles, but you really don’t. Yeah I found that a little bit like WTF is this guy talking about. My 15 year old probably knows what the grip angle is??
I belive what he was getting at was how so many people think the 1911 grip angle is the best and most comfortable and a glock grip angle is uncomfortable and weird.
But they fail to realize that the modern way of shooting is thumbs forward which is better suited for recoiled control and works with the more pronounced grip angle of say a glock and with guns like a 1911 (and sig) it causes the nose to dive

I think the really good sights I put on it are the main reason.
But I don't find the grip angle of the Glock to be objectionable. I don't actually notice it when I am presented on target. What I have started to notice that while the Glock grip is comparatively uncomfortable the width of it creates a gap between the tips of my fingers and the back of the meaty part of my palm of the firing hand. This gap is perfectly sized to allow the palm of the support hand to sit right in there. As a result I get a very stable grip. The other thing I notice is the Glock shoots very flat compared to the PPQ which itself is known to be quite flippy.
As I continue to get trigger time on it I am becoming quite the Glock devotee actually.
It just works despite, or perhaps because of, its quirks. I'd have to get behind the trigger of other polymer sticker guns though to say if the grip angle has anything to do with it. The difference I feel between the Glock and Walther, I believe, is down to the Walther's much higher bore axis combined with it's fairly light weight.
