Yes, I know it exists. But the TDA version wasn't mentioned as an option in the description. Hence, my question.

Gun and holster used: Glock 17, wing claw
Distance: 3y
Total score: 49, dropped one off dot four, of all things.
Pass or fail: Big fat fail
Anything you noticed: I had a lot of low rounds. I'm not 100% on whether I was looking over the sights or mashing the trigger. More work to do. The SHO and WHO strings were gratifying.

[Mr_White]

Sure, TDA version is fine!

Gun and holster: VP9, Bladetech Eclipse OWB
Distance: 5 yd
Score: 49
FAIL

Threw the last shot on #4 about a 1/4" outside of the line ... ugh. Usually when I screw up early I go crap afterwards but I beared down, kept my head in the game with strong front sight focus and cleaned it from that point forward. That's a positive I guess.

distance: 5 yards
Score: 49 cold, 50 second attempt.

Shot this from concealment (GameGuard fishing shirt)





Ammo was Independence Aluminum case 115 grain FMJ. During the first attempt one of the weakhand rounds felt hotter than normal. I had a malfunction caused by a popped primer. as described here in the Ammo section: https://pistol-forum.com/showthread....-Popped-Primer
