Training with Glock 44 Calibre .22

Is a .22 of any relevance as far as firearms training is concerned? The short answer is yes. 9mm ammunition – even reloads – are expensive and the affordability of .22 ammo makes it the perfect training calibre. An argument is that the recoil is almost nonexistent. This coupled to the fact that the report of a 22 is significantly less than a 9mm some may argue gives the shooter a false sense of what’s to come when moving onto bigger calibres.

Most importantly, the fact remains is that the more you use a handgun, the more familiar you become with them. The result is the better shot you will be.  Trigger control and learning sight alignment and sight picture are fundamentals regardless of calibre.  In an ideal world, your training .22 should have the same weight, trigger pull as your defensive carry weapon. In summary, the  Glock 44 is exactly that: the best training/ab initio pistol for the existing or aspirant Glock user.
