    Wow, yes she has. 1-for-1 on almost all the steel, and very smooth. There's an obvious increase in her speed and aggression (and possibly confidence?) over the course of the video. I predict another "level up" when she figures out how to release those skills on every stage.

    Make room for all the trophies...

    The funny thing is she hasn't looked at match results in three years -- all she is interested in, is continuing to get better.

    Built by Ed Cameron. I have identical guns in 38 Super Comp and 9 major (that also reliably shoots 9 minor factory ammo with no spring change).

    Red dot vs iron sight gun

    I shot my first IDPA match in nearly 10 years, competing in two divisions, CO and ESP. (This match allows two entries per competitor). I used my carry guns from AIWB: Prograde CZ P-07/EPS and P-07/irons. I have not shot irons seriously for over two years, and was interested in how atrophied my skills would be. I also wanted to test my skills with my carry guns.

    The first stage was a Mozambique standards, and my iron sights run was a disaster. I racked up 15 points down by not seeing my rear sight at all.

    After that, I got my head out of my ass and the match went well, and I took 3rd overall with the CO gun, behind two M class guys shooting a gamerized 2011 and a Legion.

    My irons scores were about 5% below my dot scores.

    I shot better with the irons gun on two stages. One was a hoser/activator drop turner, and the other was a pretty tough standards stage with a 20yd partial.

    The take-home for me is that irons (shooting target focus) require a bit more confirmation, but at IDPA speeds (at least at the level I can shoot it), there’s less of a deficit than for USPSA.
