Report your score for each section of the test (ie. 98-4x) and if you were within the time limits on sections 2 & 3:
Section 1: 89-4x

Apart from M2CattleCo, has anybody else had further issues with the trigger binding?
I am super pumped for this pistol. Count me in for at least one.

There are several high-volume Beretta guys on this forum who will hopefully chime in, but I know there are a lot of 92s with high round counts out there. I think I remember reading that Ernest...

Slowly but surely getting rid of the bulk pack of full-size B8s that I bought last year.

This is certainly not a definitive answer about the concept of tunnel vision, but physiologically, the fight-or-flight response is mediated by the sympathetic arm of the autonomic nervous system -...
Are the frames cracking in the same location each time? That's pretty concerning. I thought the 229 was supposed to be one of the more durable 40S&W platforms.
Generally the rear sight is drifted for windage adjustment, but you might consider having someone else shoot the pistol to confirm that the sights are actually off (especially since you indicated...
I've had 2 1911s make it through the 2,000 round challenge without a stoppage - one was a $3k+ Wilson, the other was a Colt XSE. Besides, if you're going to go 1911, there's really only one choice...
It's not stainless, but there is a Colt Competition Pistol in .45 ACP on Gunbroker right now, buy-it-now for $834. As a recovering 1911 guy, if I were in your shoes, that's the one I'd buy. Fits most...
There are reports of both Beretta and Sig frames with 100k+ on them, so with modern designs/alloys, seems like aluminum frames are not as much of an issue when it comes to high mileage (Although of...
The polymer actually begins to degrade as soon as it leaves the mold, albeit slowly. As previously pointed out, UV and moisture will accelerate breakdown of the polymer. I asked a polymer chemist...
I'll add a data point - I don't think the 2000 round challenge is particularly hard on the gun, either. I did the 2k with a blued Colt 1911, and after wiping the crud off, there was still bluing on...

Thanks for the information! With your practice schedule it seems like your practice gun must have racked up an impressive round count fairly quickly. What kind of life do you get out of the frame...
I shoot a 625JM in IDPA occasionally. You don't need a speed loader with a moonclipped gun, you just simply grab the moonclipped rounds off your belt and chuck 'em in (lots of .45 wheelguns have the...
I was an ophthalmic tech before going to medical school, and I helped a few guys from our local IDPA club get set up for shooting post cataract sx with pretty good success. If the stick on bifocals...
IMO, you just described the V-Strom 650 perfectly. I own a 2013 model and love it. I think it's the perfect "do-it-all" motorcycle - which is a sentiment shared by most V-Strom owners. One major...
