Glock 23 At 230 Yards

[Spitune2011]

That's awesome. Laser sight and deer season next my man!

[puppynamedmoleson100]

A bunch of Federal Law Enforcement agents and officers carry the Glock and Sig. Most notable sig users are NCIS, while glock is the FBI's and most Office of Inspector General sidearms

[SuRihtanil]

@puppynamedmoleson100 very good

[Mr223wssm]

Awesome

[bikernut1969]

Impressive I just bought my first Glock 22 Gen4 on information from a fellow employee that shoots IMSIC.

[Sypher117]

Just wanted to say thanks for the informative vids. I just bought a 23 gen4 on your recommendation and I absolutely love it. Every other gun I've ever owned has been one handed down from my dad. When I bought my first purchased gun I wanted it to be powerful, accurate, and practical. I have a Colt 357 Python that was my grandfathers and dads before me, but it's just not a carry gun. (Two much sentimental value.) My new 23 however, fits the bill. Thanks again.

[stacky512a]

Hickok, realistically would that do much damage to a person from that range?

[FBIagentNinja]

19 people got shot with a Glock 23.

[jango306x]

Your videos are fun, informative, and suprinsingly inspriring. Makes me want to spend more time (and money) at the range!

[details78]

I love you man!

[thegoldenhurricane]

Wow! Mr.hickok,great shots!

[JWillow925]

What a good showing of marksmanship to hit a Target from that distance that is rare shooting skill I desire to have one day

[whitestang99]

my friend gave me FPD hornady 155gr lead, is this bad for the glock 23??

[0SideSwipe0]

I just bought a Glock 23c today can't wait to try this myself

[north808boyz303]

whats the mag cap on the 23

[FURRYnacho123]

@north808boyz303 13 rounds

[north808boyz303]

@FURRYnacho123 thanks man just got the glock 21 .45 acp check out my vid let me know what u think

[nyhcdoowakcep]

Well done

[domino2205]

I know I have asked you this before but still hoping to get an answer, but my question is how do you approach shot like this in relation to your sight picture? Do you use a normal sight picture and aim above or whats the Hickok way?? Thanks your the man!

[DeanMLFlame]

@domino2205 he actually tilts the gun to get a different sight picture but still holds like he would at 30yrds, if that makes sense. Holds on the bottom but tilts the gun back.

[KirilG1]

This is my favorite gun, and you are very, very good! Thank you!

[droski1020]

i want to be this grandpa

[slitherlock]

badass....if that doesn't say volumes for Glock nothing will

[ThePhatsaq]

You're an inspiration. I really enjoy your videos.  You sir, are a beast.

[Clapacino]

Do you use the factory barrel??

[DrippinAcrylic]

Beast.

[MrHail666satan]

I like it how he rolls his neck like Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon and nails the gong. Awesome!

[Jdavis294]

Nice shooting!!

[Jdavis294]

Wow that's some shooting now! Thanks I can use this to make a point with a cow worker!! Lol see it can be done!!

[elvaqueromuerto]

I was doing the numbers for trajectory, and I know they say it's a sub-MOA round. What was your compensation at 230 yds? Something like 4.2" per 1 or 100 yds? Something like a 9" upward compensation? I haven't shot at anything past 50 yds with any purpose, just to shoot. So now I'm very curious to try.

[waltereg0]

To see the distance, and which target it is, jump to 3:48 to see the camera zoom in on the target.

[mynameisjohn87]

damn...i can actually see the bullet decrease speed and slope as it hits the target, that's badass

[TheBigFella1911]

Great shooting Mr.Hick45! very inspiring!

[Investing2011]

Holy crap

[ChristianArmorOfGod]

O I can hit the bottom of a dixie cup waxed at 100 yards with my 9mm Glock, never tried past 100 though

[SniperOwnageLol]

Lol, nice shooting

[htkilic3000]

sir, u shoot that pistol better than me with a scoped rifle!

[htkilic3000]

sir, u shoot that pistol better than me with a scoped rifle!

[htkilic3000]

sir, u shoot that pistol better than me with a scoped rifle!

[JWH3574010]

those really should b banned.

[JWH3574010]

i dont like those mecury filled hydra bear claws much as most people.

[JWH3574010]

i try to keep a mag. of both on me.keep hp in the pistol most the time though.

[JWH3574010]

on the back of the blazer brass ammo box it says not for law enforcement .why cause its not a hollow point.?gotta break up auto engine parts sometimes dont you?

[scandmx5atl]

As of yesterday at 3PM I am the proud owner of a brand spankin new Glock 23! I used to be a hater, then I drank the Kool-Aid and spread the word! Glock = bliss. Thanks hickock

[TheMadMedek]

If there wasn't a lot of physical aspects to top shot I'd think Hickok would definitely be at the top of the pack

[JWH3574010]

thanks hickock.i think your a pistol guy i can relate to.the statements you made about handgun "accuracy " are right on..long live the glock 23 and long live hickock 45.

[JWH3574010]

ive been on 35 year quest for the perfect handgun.this is as good as it gets.gotta have two though.!

[hesmotit]

WHO THE HELL WOULD DISLIKE THIS VIDEO?!?!

[kushluk33]

@hesmotit jealous people

[RedBrickStudios1011]

@hesmotit some pussy who hates guns which i find IMPOSSIBLE!!!

[Yselalujan]

@hesmotit I'm from San Francisco....and even I love this video!!! Very impressive!!

[umustafarted]

U can shoot your ass off

[Taj2444]

Man me and my dad love you. You actually turned us on to buying a glock I own a 27 my dad has a 22 and 19 we love them. As you would say " life is good" keep on shooting buddy.

[slicknick76]

Yeah, I agree. You sir need to be on that show "Top Shot". I think you are better than most of the past contestants! I've seen most of your vids and I can say you are one of the most well rounded marksmen I've ever seen. You really should compete. I would love to see you woop all the young bucks with all thier fancy crap! Ha ha! I would think this kind of long range shooting would ONLY be possible with a seriously modified gun...for instance a Desert Eagle .50 with a scope, trigger job, custom

[AveragePope]

This is one of the coolest people ever in history.

[gewehr421]

That target is incredibly far away!

[nernjp56789]

Thats awesome man I have a hard time at just 25 yards :)

[EVILANDKANE]

Great shooting

Your life is good

[Shottacle]

Your truly talented sir again I'm amazed well done if one day I could shoot as half as good as you can wow.

[Faugermire]

I have trouble with targets at less than half that range...

[Slightapex]

No. I haven't :(

[Slightapex]

I've done that @ 260 yards w/ a ruger lcr.......

[ScottForLostSouls]

Outstanding !!!

[BrewMonkey1]

Wow. Some people have difficulty shooting like that with a rifle.

[bigjc12000]

Wow, if I could hit that with a rifleid be amazed.

[FreemanFPS]

That is more than amazing! It would be cool if you do it with a 1911 as well :)

[ThePurpleTape1]

VERY NICE!!!

[juiceman616]

I'm impressed

[BTruitt18]

how do u have 230 yards of land...i wish my assets were that big lol

[SamuraiX6288]

WOAH, when he did the zoom, that's when it really sunk in just how freaking amazing this is. I thought it was the usual gong, not the one way behind it... FREAKING AMAZING!

[ILITTHEWORLDONFIRE]

its all about practice

[STRIKERZ3R0]

two words, TOP SHOT

[ThermalSh0ck]

My best is 150 yards hitting a average size coffee can with a Ruger P95 on my 3rd shot out of 5 winning $5 lol good shooting, I wish I was as good as you

[timothyheidorn]

good aiming dude

[airic554]

@timothyheidorn good everything, really haha. thats a tough shot.

[shaynemcallister]

This was the first @hickok45 video I watched a few years ago. Been a viewer ever since. Thanks for such a great catalogue of videos sir! I've learned so much from you!

[imawsm500]

outragous...i could do that at maybe 50 yards but not 230

[Silvershines76]

That is an unbelievable shot you are an excellent marksman.

[abeismain]

Lol.. wow 3:30 awesome shooting...

--

gotta watch this:

/watch?v=FSaeRHE4_fo&feature=c­hannel_video_title

[venzaneww]

Damn thats amazing.

[crambone34]

how high are you holding at that distance with the 23?...

[Zebracakes305]

Amazing shoot sir.

[biggerm82]

There you have it. Proof that if you can't hit anything with your Glock 23, it's because YOU suck. Not your firearm. ;)

[Tyranidalex]

That target looked like it was two feet in diameter. And you hit it at a range like that?! With a Glock?!

I'm impressed!

Great vid and nice skills!

[FicoBezKocnicaBL]

Ah Tennessee the patron state of shooting stuff.

[steeeeve1111]

Target..... how big is the target. Thanks and Happy New Year!

[steeeeve1111]

How big is the targer? I am guessing 18 inches in diameter?  Your videos rock!

[infinitelimitation]

TO EVEN GET INTO THE RADIUS OF THAT GONG AT 230 YARDS WITH A 4TH GEN 23 IS AMAZING SHOOTING

HATS OFF TO YOU SIR :)

[Gjams100]

Have to tell you that was some darn good marksmenship !!!!!! Keep the video's coming !!

[drenM1A1]

Dude. I might hit that.....from dumb luck and a million rounds once. And...I could never ever do it with a glock, hat's off to you sir.

[omascho]

Manskills

[MaggotBurrito]

hickok45 for next top shot!!!!!!!!

[Flankitto04]

I didn't appreciate this video until trying to hit the target a 25 yards using a 4th gen 23. Awesome shooting.

[Robin18us]

I've done 100 yards with a 22 LR Ruger with a 6 6/8 barrel no problem. But 230yds with a handgun seems like good shooting to me. Nice job. I'd like to give it a try, but our range only goes to 100yds.

[McClacky23]

sick property

[MrJeaton111]

Hi Hickok, Just found this today. Outstanding. Did my certification for carry today with my new Glock 23. I have a question if you don't mind.

I am about 8 months out of carpal tunnel surgery and could really tell it by the tenth shot. After my 50th round my hand was really aching. Do you have any suggestions as to how I can modify or adjust to compensate. Thanks.

[TonechannelTV]

Hickok, you are a marksman, a gentleman, and a scholar. Amazing shooting.

[wolvesnrp]

What kind of bullet drop do you get at 230 yards?

[FiveTwoSevenTHR]

@wolvesnrp From my experience doing this with a .40, it's about 5 feet as I recall.

[jemuvegen]

can you try the 26

[LiveFreeOrDie1985]

Hickcock I love my glock 23 but I always here people say the .40 has tons of recoil.

The .40 was my firsthandgun. I shot it great very accurate I didnt notice much recoil when I compared it to a 9mm. I just let the gun do its thing and recoil. Do you notice a big difference in recoil from the 9mm to a .40?

[TheSageCommander1]

Mr.HICKOK45 you proved that glocks are the best! Along side of 1911!!!! SPRINGFIELD 1911

[johng42193]

Nice shooting man! Thats better than I can do with some rifles. Keep on keepin on!

[LollercoasterLULZ]

I used to be able to hit a gong at 230 yards, then I took an arrow to the knee.

[Shlitz54]

@LollercoasterLULZ how much skyrim has changed our lives

[MrStrongarms]

this is completely AWESOME !!!

[lowsten]

Awesome video. It seems to me that if your arms didn't get so tired you could maintain your sight picture and hit the target with every round in the magazine. Also, are you aiming center mass or a little higher? Thanks and keep up the good work.

[c619cuesta]

He would rape top shot!!!!!

[theCANaDiAN1987]

Show-off..

[Jcerillo70]

Like they said before. You definitely need to go on Top Shot Hickok45! I'd absolutely root for you brother!!

[KiwiBowhunter]

Nice shooting mate!

What sort of energy would the bullet still have at that kind of range though?

[soulReBeL42zero]

@KiwiBowhunter enough to get that big gong moving around! lol def not point blank knock down power but i bet it would still penetrate pretty deep and maybe kill somebody

[ScarletAvatar]

Impressive!

[valiosubaru]

This video was made in the summer right ? I can see you T- shirt and the green trees !

[fistfullofitch]

my coworkers all stared in amazement when i was hitting targets at 100 yards with my .357, but this is a whole new level of wow.

[DystruktoBoi1]

ok so no matter what Hikok45 is armed with don't piss him off within a 200 yard radius, MINIMUM

[Goat644]

@DystruktoBoi1 and I would suggest that if you do piss him off you should run in a zig-zag fashion while getting to cover. Although you would only die tired.

What a great shot !!!

[cultofjimjones]

i saw the title and immediately yelled "get the fck out of here!"

im still yelling it.

[hairydawg721]

i love it

[pjhoneycut]

you got a cool laugh lol.

[jjs5243]

Hickok please go on Top Shot please

[KennyCommander]

nice shot

[FraserMGZR]

AYE ITS HARD AS FK BUT WEV'E GOT THE WRITE MAN 4 THE JOB.

[FraserMGZR]

USA + NATO ....

[smcombs100]

hey hickok, my birthday is coming up and i was wondering if you could get a hold of a HK Mark23 and do a review on it! i know you dont like DA/SA guns but these things are amazing.

thanks! 

[Reyesthekid]

I'm a great shot.... But your better.....

[PowerViolenceForever]

hickock your a fucking machine. This video does not give the difficulty of these shots justice...

[tiggerr42431]

I suspect we are both lucky to have mother in law's that love us. I love this video most for the grin on the first shot that hit. Best response to a comment I have read on any video by the way.

[FreemanFPS]

There isnt many people in the world that can do that.

[erik7x57]

@FreemanFPS I know some guys that think they are experts that can't do that with a varmint gun off a bench. 

[FreemanFPS]

@erik7x57 haha very true.dont give hickok a sniper rifle.Give him a pistol to snipe the enemy.That north hollywood shootout with the two guys that had ak's and body armour? Next time dont wait for swat just call hickok45 along with his glock.holy smokes

[tomanddakota]

/watch?v=7E9Qil7JFec&feature=r­elated anyone else hate this kid already

[redmax28]

That is really amazing!! But at that range; wouldn't a .40 have the power of a .22? I think I'm wrong though.

[AtariBoy99]

Nice I love it keep it up!

[MrJigssaw1989]

Now do it with glock 26 :D !!

[MrJigssaw1989]

Jury wouldnt propably be too happy about self-defence at 230yards :D:D

[EviLNox8]

@MrJigssaw1989 I swear I felt threatened... he had a knife and was running straight at me. In another 20 seconds he might have gotten me!!

[DANKNUGZZ211]

@MrJigssaw1989 this had me rollin on the floor laughing

[TheWyatt007]

i know you get a lot of requests.. but im interested in what your thoughts are on a Berretta 92... or even the 90-two

[MATTER767]

HEY HICKOK I THINK YOU HAVE A TRAINED MONKEY BEHIND THE GONG SOMETIMES?????

[hickok45]

@MATTER767, I keep telling you guys, it's my mother-in-law. I have her back there with a little hammer. Her instructions are to "bong the gong" when she hears the bullet hit the wall behind her. I advise her to skip one occasionally so that nobody will get suspicious. :-)

[COOLGuitardude17]

@hickok45 shes a brave woman :D

[TypeRSXdc5]

@hickok45 I wish I could like this 100 times!

[DANKNUGZZ211]

@hickok45 havent read a funnier hickock response to date

[friedmeat]

@hickok45 tell the truth,you are really aiming for the mother in law but miss and hit the gong.

[taystew]

@hickok45 LOL

[fighterjetfreak09]

unreal!!! what does the target look like at that distance?!?!? very cool

[death2pc]

Daddy-O, you're outta sight..........

[100REALM]

I own a Ruger P95 9mm. I've shot over 5k rounds since I bought it in 08 and I swear I've never had a failure to fire. It's been the most reliable gun I've ever owned.

[1pelletgun]

for the gun license how nuch do u have 2 pay plz reply

[billrock12]

@1pelletgun it's free.. go to the police station and tell them you want a permit

[WVMarkyVW]

@1pelletgun it matters were you live here in georgia well were i live in georgia its 70 dollars

[WVMarkyVW]

@WVMarkyVW well nevermind that is a license to carry lol

[VitalShot21]

damn fine shooting

[Hardheadedsob2000]

Hey Hickok i have a question for u would u pick a glock 23 exo gen 3 or a glock 23 gen 4 which would u choose cause I am having a hard time deciding which I want could u please help

[cbr1000fhurricane]

I would very much like to find out what holdover is needed for a shot like this with the 23.

[thahchad1987]

Sir, I have purchased a glock for the first time in my life, I am originally a 1911 kind of guy. I wanted a reliable backup pistol that's compact with nice stopping power so I purchased my g23. Your amazing video is making me salivate on waiting to pick it up. 10 day California rule.

[airic554]

@thahchad1987 Have you takenit out to the range yet?

[DesireBros]

@PeanutsAnDEgO He's from Georgia. Hart County to be a little bit more specific.

[DANKNUGZZ211]

@DesireBros who are you his husband???

[samthecat07]

unbelievable

[Ascenscion123]

@PeanutsAnDEgO He is FPSRussia not Russian its an act

[Tonycalvo1991]

if you can run well and go through obstacles you should apply for top shot! best shot I've ever seen.

[ShadowPatriot12]

He looks like one of the guy from Lemonparty(dot)org.

[begginersatanist]

3:07 for hit

[tiggerr42431]

Classic video, classic shooting at the limit of the equipment, and classic reaction with that grin.

[domino2205]

Great shootin as usual, but when your shooting at that or extended ranges what is your sight picture or how are you aiming at the target.

[Advandnaruto]

such a badass!!

[jschin79]

This guy is a great shot, I mean he hit the target like 5 times...

[yobouty44]

Love your laughter when you hit it. It's infectious! The joy of shooting!

[TheZmanShow]

wow.
