    Well alright then.

    Very nice piece. I met a man who had one of the Sporters and he graciously let me shoot a magazine full. What a shooter! Those star-gauged barrels are no joke.

    I shot about 40 rounds of .38 Special reloads from a Model 28, four inch, and
    two snubnoses, an M649 and an M38. The 28 is a former cop gun and has
    Pachmayr rubber grips. A very serious-looking revolver.

    Target was a plastic Folger's coffee can. Locale was a sandpit outside
    town. (It's closer than the area ranges and I was in a bit of a hurry.)

    Range was 20 yards at first, then I stretched it to about 40.
    The can had one hole in it when I started. It has a whole lot more
    now.

    The 28 has always shot well and today I did OK with the snubs too.

    The weather has cooled off and the bugs weren't bad at all this
    morning.

    What did you shoot today?

    As part of my exploration of IDPA, I shot the 5x5 Classifier twice at the beginning of my practice session--using an IDPA legal lightened Shadow2. Here are the times:

    (all 10yds)
    5 freestyle: 2.59, 2.43+1
    5 SHO: 3.82+1, 3.49
    5 reload 5: 6.50+1, 5.74
    4 body 1 head: 2.73, 2.82
    Raw: 15.64, 14.48
    Points down: 2, 1
    Total: 17.64, 15.48 (cutoff for Master is 18.47 or less)

    (Note the head shot is where the upper A zone is on a USPSA target. Still not used to the IDPA targets...)

    What is that bottom firearm? Or is it even a firearm?

    I guess technically that would be considered a destructive device. It is a single shot 40 mm less lethal launcher. It is made by Lewis machine and tool. The best way I can describe it is that it is a big single shot shotgun that uses a Smith and Wesson revolver action. We use it to shoot a variety of impact and chemical munitions. Our patrol guys only use foam impact rounds. Hurts like hell, but you can shoot it as close as 5 feet from someone and if you shoot them in the correct area it should not seriously injure them.

    Where did you get the stock pouch? We had two available to patrol, and when I took it out sometimes I’d stick an extra round in a pocket but that wasn’t ideal.

    Those are Tuff Products 40mm pouches.
