Glock 18 Controlability?????

Is it possible to unload a full magazine (32 rd) from a Glock 18 at 10 yards all into the ten ring?

I couldn't do it. I played with a converted 17L for awhile...looked like I was trying to pattern a shotgun-from 100 yards. I could barely keep it paper on a B-27 target.

The idea with full auto is that you don't have to...

What ctdonath said.

Doubles n triples are usefull at times. Held down is rarely used cept in true machine guns. and even then usually for short times.

We shot several full auto's at the academy including the Glock 18. I could hold an uzi on target through an entire magazine. With the Glock, I was lucky to stay on the B-27. It's true though, the magazine was empty before the first empty cartridge hit the ground.

With practice, 5 round bursts at 10yds go into 8-9" groups.
