The two range buddies playing their domination/submission game is not interesting to me.
I have seen people shoot a G26 better than a G17, G19, or G34. In each case, the person was shooting low and left with the bigger gun, but dead-on with the G26. I don't think any differences in inherent accuracy or sight radius played any role whatsoever. What I observed in those examples is that the shooters' pinkie fingers were not able to apply any force to the grip on the G26, so when they shot they couldn't twist the gun low and left as they were pressing the trigger. It helped prevent them from disturbing the alignment of the gun before the bullet exited the muzzle.
I have seen a similar thing happen when people have trouble shooting with one hand. I have them remove their pinkie from the grip and suddenly they're hitting the target. Then you know where at least part of the problem originates and you can take corrective actions.
