...ok this is what I got. They had a 17 gen4 which was very nice, but they found this in the back. They didn't even know they had it. Gentlemen came out and said was hidden back there just as I was filling out the paperwork for the 17. Always wanted one (an RTF version to be exact), but we all know the chances of finding something like that sitting NIB with blue label at my LGS lol.
Anyway, I got this instead of the 17. Test fired March 7, 11
Obviously has the 336 ejector, but she functioned perfectly at the range today. Dipped extractor, all brass up and to the right somewhere (don't ask me where exactly, I wasn't looking and really didn't care..they weren't hitting me). Shot a lot of controlled pairs... The range I was at did not allow rapid fire. So yeah, basically I got another 19 (love them).
Ammo was Walmart specials (Fed) x300
Going to order some Ameriglos tonight, already have an OEM Ext SSL on the way.
One last thing on this flash...I didn't notice it unless I was looking for it (shooting indoors). I was focused on front site which was always there. As far this back blast, I felt none fully extended (there was some guy on YouTube that did a comparison between a 19 and 19C, and he said it really bothered him - fully extended and he was outdoors to boot. Anyway, he must have had pink underwear on). I also fired a few from retention, and it was minimal.
So here it is: Gen 3 19C
