My friend if I can't hold 1 inch at 25 yards I would give up competitive shooting, my STI will cut one hole at 25 yards and 1" inch at 50 yards. Granted its a match grade pistol and I certainly wouldn't take it to a gunfight because they are softer loads and would have zero wound channeling. The issue is Glock owners here, they do have this strong belief they are owning a "Ferrari" when in fact they are more like a VW beetle.

Wilson Combat Custom Beretta 92G
A shooting buddy of mine just acquired one with the green grips, it looks and feels great except its still a freaking 92. The barrel lock up on these pistols is horrendous and unless you get it shopped expect a 7 ring group at 50 yards. The 92 is what we call a tv gun, yes granted they are Bullseye champions but those are so heavily modded they can barely be considered a 92 anymore.
Out of the box a 92 has horrid accuracy over distance.

A lot of missing information here. Such as: 1. What will it be used for? 2. Will the whole family shoot it? 3. What's you and your family's shooting experience? 4. Have you or your family had training?
Once these are answered, some real shooters can help you out.

I appreciate the information provided by you all. Here is some additional information, hope it helps.
It will be serving as a backpack/bug out bag firearm and could potentially be used by any number of friends/family members. I have been shooting for years, and carrying for almost three decades. However my training is heavily centered around CHL carry and defensive shootings within an established legal framework (unsure how much that is applicable to SHTF/WROL/disaster). I presently carry a compact .40 S&W and have fired many chamberings from the .22lr, .38 spc/.357 mag to 9mm, .40, .45, 10mm and some oddball calibers (25acp comes to mind).
I do have several rifles, including a WASR, AR-15 M&P Sport 2, Colt 6920 w/ M16 fire control group/RDIAS, several bolt action .308 rifles, a .300 win mag rifle and a C308 SA .308. I also have various shotguns which are my home defense weapons of choice. For the shotguns we have 2 12ga 870s and a Mossberg (I believe 590) in 20ga.
tjack, do they still manufacture the PMR30? For some reason I was under the impression it was going away, am I mistaken? Very interesting alternative.

I appreciate the input vxn, and not to get off topic, but are you on YouTube? I have definitely seen the guy in your avatar in a video or image somewhere related to SHTF/firearms/or survival.
