Not ready to release the P30 LEM video yet, but as luck would have it my dear wife and the RO somehow linked up and I have timer footage on two runs on steel with
split times of .17 and .15. That is not shooting the berm, that is at a match on day one and on target. LEM...for slow people? LEM not a competition trigger? Hmm... Maybe
it is, maybe it isn't...more time behind the gun will tell me.
The video below... 1.01 draw, .21 split for target 1, .26 transition to target 2 with a .15 split on that one then on to the stop plate at .28 for a total of 1.91

Guns are just machines and without you they can do no harm, nor any good
Great shooting Patrick, I look forward to the full review!
What intrigues me is how some can pick up a LEM gun and have no problem shooting it well, while others struggle with them.
If I had to pick one thing that many need to work on (and I must remind myself of at nearly every match!) IS...G R I P@!
A really well grasped pistol will not only respond well in its ability to function, but it will work to dampen otherwise crappy trigger
manipulations.
Watch enough of my videos and I talk about "running my grip up" as in grab the damn tool like you mean to do business with it!

if you learned to shoot bullseye pistol first, where the only thing that counts is accuracy, then you were taught to hold the pistol with less than death grip firmness. to let it recoil back, as follow up shots had plenty of time to happen. but that same lesson will hinder your two handed action shooting performance, where you want to reduce recoil as much as possible so you can get back on target as fast as possible. you have to hit a 8" or sometimes a 4" circle most of the time, far more margin for error than the X ring at a little over 1" in size (1.695" to be exact). the 8 ring on a B-8 is 8"!
so hold on tight, put your sights on the target, pull the trigger without moving the sights, and do that again as fast as you can.
enjoyed your videos Mr. Kelley. a buddy of mine just got the P30L, so i'm looking forward to his impressions of it and see how well he shoots it next match (sunday).
