Now I want one.SW40VE wrote:I have a millennium pro pt145. 10+1 and it feels GOOD in my hand. Points naturally, accurate, no problems as of 500 +/- rounds, and economic ($325 out the door!). I would definitely recommend it.

I looked at the pt145 and wow , i didnt know it existed. I like the looks of it. I looked at the g33 and it is still small like the 36. I really cant hold on to it. thanksOverEasy wrote:G.C. Montgomery wrote;

A Taurus PT745 is: 6.12" long, 1.125" wide, 5.2" tall and weights 20.8oz, 6+1.
That's down there with the Kel-Tec P11 and the Kahrs. Pretty compact in my book.
scooter03, you might want to to checkout a Taurus. The PT145 is about the same size, 2 oz. heavier and has a double stack mag. 10+1.
Or, you could go rent a G33 and try it, you'll forget all about .45acp

Re: ME
Yes I am looking at a 45 acp, I really like the feel of the G36 with the grip extender but I really think putting pressure on the mag while gripping it really caused problems with loading and ejecting of the spent rounds. I hope someone on here has a G36 that can relate to what I am talking about. I currently own a 4 in barrell 1911 in 9mm that I really love but am wanting a 45. thanks for the help thoughshootthesheet wrote:I was thinking of getting one until I held it.

If you want a small .45 you might try Springfield's little 1911s. They are heaver and the external safety takes some getting use to. But, with the single stack mag, short grips and barrels. They seem to fit many people well. If you still want a 36 you can have grip work done or find one that is already done. They are more expensive but might be what you are looking for. I like .45 ACP but, the choice is limited for the smaller guns.
As far as the FTF. I haven't heard it being a problem with the G36. Your control issues and possibly worn out springs may have been the problem with that one.

Glock 36, Disappointed
I shot my first 36 today and yes it was a rental, so maybe that is why I was disappointed. I shot 50 rnds and guaranteed 10 or more did not fully load while shooting. While shooting, it wouldn't fire so I just barely pulled the slide no more than 1/8" and let go and it continued to load the rounds. It felt very slippery in my hands, and it felt like the tighter I held it, the worse it shot. I have very big hands and sure wished that the grips were just about 1/2" longer. I know you can get the mag extenders but it seemed like the more pressure i put on the bottom of the mag when gripping the more it fouled up. Does anyone else have this problem. maybe just me.
