For years we were armed with Glock 9MM (17) but have now switched over to the Glock 23. My problem is, I used to be able to shoot a tight group with my 9mm but am unable to accomplish the same with the .40. I talking about range qualifications from 15, 10, 3 and 2 feet. Any Ideas that will help me to improve my accuracy?
I think greasy is right. you are used to the full size frame. just practice a lot with your new weapon. try to get as much of your hands on the g23 as possible. don't anticipate the recoil... as you can probably tell, there's not too much difference in recoil between the two rounds, but your g23 has a shorter barrel, so it will kick a little more.

get youself a snap cap or use a EMPTY case and practice dry firing it this really helped me with my CZ copy in .41 mag i would do this while watching tv so i wouldnt anticipate hammer drop yeah, i know glocks dont have hammers but try it any practice is better than none
