    Just sayin...
    This guy's going to stay as is I think. I like 3" guns for EDC, especially since I prefer aiwb, but I like 4" guns too.

    So far so good. It's a well worn k frame. What's not to love?

    She does shoot slow though. 910fps/905fps with 5.7 be-86/5.2 unique.

    I am a big fan of having an exact duplicate pistol for training and high round counts.
    A long time ago now I had a come to Jesus moment when I witnessed a good friend of mine experience a parts breakage malfunction with his Glock. We had just got to the range after work and he cranked out precisely ONE round before the gun went tits up. Now he had a pretty high round count on that gun with no maintenance, as he liked to brag about how tough the gun and didn't need maintenance, yet what stuck with me was that this was his carry gun.....and he only managed one round....in a Glock no less, the uber-pistol the gunrags (waaay before youtube) were always telling us are indestructible.

    After that I became a convert to the clean, lube, maintain religion for my carry gun, and using a dupe for training.
    Admittedly, I probably neglect my range guns still.

    Not to shabby with my new wadcutter recipe (4gr 231 under a 148gr dewc from rimrock.)

    The 2 flyers were my first 2 shots which spoiled the whole group but they felt off so I won't blame the ammo.

    Flyers...?

    That looks like a pretty damn nice grouping of three controlled pairs.

    Not too shabby indeed - nice shooting.

    Indeed. It looks more like they went *exactly* where you aimed them, but were not sure of your sight picture vs POI. I'd be pleased as punch with those results.
