Ruger target, 50rds at 7yds. The low shots were the first ones. The rest were after I made my self slow down and focus

Model 57 target, 12 rds at 7yds. My first go 'round with the .41 Magnum and I can certainly see the attraction

The x tac which I thought would be my least favorite of the bunch shot very well. The sight picture with the fiber on front is phenomenal. Also has a 3.25# trigger. Besides the 9mm, probably shot the best groups with the xtac.

Oh yeah it was about 20 degrees so no time for glamour shots!

How well does the front strap grip on the X-Tac. It looks cool, but I've always been skeptical of it's utility.

I didn’t notice any issues however I admit my hands were pretty cold by time I shot it.
The weather sucks. Thankful for indoor ranges!

This morning at around 6:00am, Shadow 2, Les Baer P2 9mm, Caspian .45 build, Beretta Elite 2, Beretta / Wilson 92G Compact. I left the EDC X9 home or the first time since I got it.

What indoor range let's you shoot at 6am? You must belong to a private club?

I'm not challenging your claim. I'm just curious, because I would love to find a range like that.

Belongs to a friend. However, many private ranges have 24/7 indoor ranges. When I lived NJ, I belonged to a Old Bridge club that had such an indoor range. I’ve been there at 2am. (Used to be a night person, now I’m a morning person.)

Shot a Fusion Reaction 9mm that I have slightly modded at Deep River's IDPA match today. Shot 9th out of 34. Considering my feet were numb (25 degrees) and I was likely the oldest mothertrucker out there I'll take that score gladly.

Put another 200 rounds through the Baer. One minor failure to feed about midway through. I only had 500 rounds through the gun when I started. So, I'll chalk that off as a break in issue. Otherwise, my Baer is to a loaded mag as a husky is to a loaded sled. It likes to run!

I shot a pair of 19s this morning. One was a bottom feeder (Glock), the other had one of those cylindrical chamber thingies (S&W).

Also shot the Cabot S100.

Finished breaking in my new Kimber Pro Carry II in .45acp. Also put around 100 rounds of .22 LR through my Ruger Mark II. Both at 40 feet of so.

I forgot to order 45 acp ammo, and now I'm all out. My resupply wont be here for another week. Ugh.

So, today was a black rifle day. I don't shoot my rifle as much as I probably should and it showed. Inside of 15 yards, I have better speed and accuracy with a pistol.

Shot the Wilson CQB today to determine if my lower power factor match ammo is what is not locking the slide back on empty, or if I am simply a moron (looks like I was riding the slidelock Saturday). So apparently I am a moron.

If I shoot a match on any Saturday without a range session during the week, it's like I completely forget how to shoot.

Also ran my new G48 today. *dons flame suit*
I made the same groups at 25 yards with the Block as with the Wilson. Not sure what that means, but this 48 will be a good skinny carry gun if the wife doesn't take it for her own.

Yeah, those Wilson's are total garbage. Since I'm a nice guy, I'll give you a brand new Glock in exchange for your Wilson. How does that sound?
