Most things I was told many years ago, and ignored, have come back to be true as my understanding grew. A sidearms only use is to get you to a long gun.
One of those things that, at least for me, is the superiority of a long gun over a pistol.
It seems so obvious. But such a painful fact of life. My M9 did and does everything a gun is supposed to do. No reason you can't hit a running jackrabbit or cotton tail with one. No reason at all......
Except range. The difference on a target at 10 yards vs 25 yard and 50 yards maybe the 1/2 the width of your front post, and holdover. With your outstreched arm. I get point shooting, hell I do it subconciously fooling myself into "must be a combat hold" or some foolishness.
But enter the pcc. Tougher to carry? Yes. But success breads comfort, and comfort joy, and joy practice. So to sum it up I crunched some numbers...
I shoot my pcc 87.9% more than my 92fs as of this moment in time. Since 2019. Before that, my 92fs was my single 9x19 weapon. And I shot it alot, had copious amounts of training with it. I am still passable with it. The ONLY advantage it has is portability. No small consideration, but I want to devise a way to make the pcc just as portable.
I CAN hit a moving eye socket with my pcc now. Or my ar's. Doing it with the pistol is simply luck.
Mission accepted.
