Match LTT, perhaps 160 rounds at a local USPSA match.
Match LTT, perhaps 160 rounds at a local USPSA match.
I checked the zero on my 1187. Fortunately, it shoots Federal Truball slugs, Hornady 00 Critical Defense, and Hornady Varmint Express #4 buck to the same point of impact at 25 yards. I shot six more mags through the 9mm Shield and several magazines through my M&P40 2.0c off duty gun.
Good job today! Your match placement is steadily increasing, and you beat a bunch of shooters today.Originally Posted by Rapid Butterfly

As I have whined about before, my first center fire handgun was a M-15 I bought in 1973, and in the early 80s it was taken in a burglary. It was covered under homeowners insurance and it was quickly replaced with a 19-4. Back when it was just a nice revolver I had a local guy (who I think could have been a big name gunsmith, if he was willing to work on guns for people he didn't like) convert it to round butt and contour the trigger and bead blast and refinish it. Yesterday I picked up a set of nice Altamonts at OGCA and this morning I decided they should land on the 19, and I cleaned it up and took it out.
I have also recently snagged the JMCK IWB-3 for my 5" M&P 2.0 and a TLR-1 and I have been practicing with the light just to be used to it in case of apocalypse. Turns out that is one way to break that habit of putting your off hand finger on the front of the trigger guard...
Did some USPSA practice, and finished with some ECQC shooting with a P-07, where it is actually good to shoot some tight Deltas.

Speed steel match yesterday, match LTT, about 165 rounds.
Carry LTT, about 800 rounds over two full training days this weekend training with Mr. White in his excellent PST 103 class at the PSTC in Clackamas, OR. I hit some personal performance milestones this weekend, and this LTT is now at 10,195 rounds since she came home with me at the end of April of this year. I think she is an outstanding weapon.

Shot some steel. Had some issues with 1911s. Ammo wasWWB 230 grain FMJ.
Les Baer Comanche has been giving occasional BTF with a variety of mags and ammo. Had issues today with 10 round cMC mags that have been reliable in other guns. It may be time to swap the guts for Tripp super 9 kits.
Had an odd malfunction with the Dan Wesson Valor. Mag was a 7 round SA TRP mag. Both gun and mag have previously been reliable. The casing had some odd markings almost like the case wall was unusually thin.

Zero’d my CETME-L from the show off thread. Then I moved to a newish G48 I’m vetting to replace the 19x/43 pairing I am currently using depending on attire. No issues with the 48, but I was struggling with the Bold sights at 10 yards- good groupings, but consistently about an inch below the 3x5 cards I was using for targets. Last mag of ammo I decided to back off to the 25 yard line:
Not near as good as some here, but for a small gun I’ve only fired maybe 150 rounds through, I can’t complain too much. Especially since it was the end of an hour and a half session in 30 degree weather with about a foot of fresh snow.
Anything I post is my opinion alone as a private citizen.
Around 200 or so from my match LTT at the weekly PPL at PSTC in Clackamas, with Mr. White as emcee. Some fun stuff I’ve never done before, like low light bowling pin shooting with and without flashlight.
