Guess the Glockteen 11 with a chamber full of empty space wasn't so popular.

It could just be your long and bony fingers, so I apologize if I'm wrong here, but from these pictures it looks to me like your grip is a bit off. It's like your hand is rotated too far inboard, if that makes sense.
If you hold the pistol and make sure your wrist is perfectly straight, is the gun also perfectly straight?

To clarify, it's almost like you're cocking your wrist to the RIGHT and causing your thumb to wrap further around the gun on the LEFT.

Well, yeah. My thumb won't reach the slide release enough to leverage useful force if I don't. I can actuate it without cocking my wrist and it still results in my thumb's skin on the right flipping the safety. It's just a lot less comfortable.

Here's a better image of my normal grip and me using the slide release while avoiding cocking my wrist. As you can see, the skin on the right of the thumb between the knuckle and joint causes the safety to engage as I press down on the lever. My thumb is currently pushing down on it (not enough to drop the slide obviously) and I can feel the skin putting upward pressure on the safety. When the slide drops, the safety engages right after.
Adjusting my grip as in the previous images gives me more leverage and leaves a slight pocket for the safety so my thumb doesn't always touch it, but when it does the same effect happens.

Roger that. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. Looks like you're going to need to use your left hand after all, because you don't want to be changing your grip or accidentally engaging the safety during a gunfight.
>>661273
Yeah, I get it now. Sorry about your unique anatomy, bro.

Appreciate the help. I'm going to see if I can change out the safety for something that fits more flush with the frame.

Yeah, your hands really are a little abnormal, or at least the thumb is. That's just how the genetic lottery goes sometimes. Looking at these and your other pictures I'm really not sure what further advice I could offer you without being in person to get a closer look at things, but I think you've already made the right conclusion by deciding to do it left-handed. Your thumb's definitely longer and thinner than mine although I do have slightly buff thumbs for what that's worth.
You have some nice shootas, by the way. How do you like those GI style sights with the long barrel? I'm a three dot guy myself.

The GI sights mean that any advantage the 16 inch barrel gives are neutralized by being unable to effectively engage at distances beyond like 35-45 yards. I can barely see a fucking thing. Using the stock helps a lot but I'd like to replace the GI sights with 3-dots.

I'd happily recommend either irons like mine, or some raised target-style ones. You obviously aren't planning to use a suppressor unless you bother to replace that long-ass barrel, but high profile irons are also way nicer for shooting at range. The rear sight on mine is technically adjustable, I guess, but honestly I've never touched it. GI sights are kind of ass, though they were designed with a military sidearm in mind, so it makes sense that they're less useful than other sorts. Fair warning, most sight replacements are gonna require a smith.

Well, I guess I shouldn't say most since I don't actually know that, but I know a lot of the ones I've used have a non-standard dovetail and quite often a screw down into the slide as well to make sure they don't move.

Colt and FN guns are breddy much the same, you're just paying for the rollmark. iirc FN is doing it cheaper than both Remington and Colt.

Rumbles and murmors are that Colt's quality has been slipping the last few years, and the shutting down of shops and cutting costs has meant that one of its greatest assets, its human capital, is bleeding out and some of its good gunsmiths and best guys are leaving/gone. that quality is slipping, that Colt isn't just in cash problems, its reaching a dangerous point of no return as its liabilities and prices continue to go up while its quality, its old strong point, decreases. Every time you look at it, it just keeps getting worse. Colt needs those guns to sell for those prices, and once its last thing beyond the name brand go its a safe bet to say the brand is just waiting to die. A slow, decades long, miserable death.

You might as well have listed a Khyber Pass company, because that's what all publicly traded companies are.

How many off the books gunsmiths exist in America?
I'm willing to bet that their quality exceeds that of any major manufacturer.

To be honest though, original PL-14 had an absolute assload of reliability issues and wasn't that good, but PL-15 fixed pretty much all of them.

Allow me to disagree. Minor gains in major factors that can't be had any other way for a mere $600 (or 2x) price of Glock sound like a GREAT biz model.
For fucks sake, browse any normie gun forum like (((Calguns))). Every Boomer and his nephews are all adding $600 worth of shit to their Glocks and don't get me started on AR-15s and 1911s. $1100 is a starting point for "big name" 1911, and it goes up past $4000 easy.
I'm not a big time shooter, but I've shot my share of pistols and bore axis is pretty much THE thing, so just say "better than ANY other" is a big, big deal.
Any new venture is risky, but I'd have considered investing. I'd consider it again. Lots of ideas take a couple of tries.

But the H9 doesn't change bore axis at all, and functions worse than every other $1100 pistol I have ever seen with the sole exception of a Kimber. It's not "better than any other", you fucking moron, the reason the company failed is because of no noticeable improvement coupled with glaring reliability problems. Don't even get me started on your Reddit spacing or necroposting.
