S&W Model 57

Ruger target, 50rds at 7yds. The low shots were the first ones. The rest were after I made my self slow down and focus
SR1911 CDR 7yds 230g 50rds by awp101, on Flickr
Model 57 target, 12 rds at 7yds. My first go 'round with the .41 Magnum and I can certainly see the attraction
Mod57 7yds 185g Hornady 12rds by awp101, on Flickr
Let's see who else has been burning powder recently!

Brought a couple out that don’t see light that often, the scratched up Colt has got to be my favorite. I think the last time I shot it was maybe 4 or 5 years ago, a couple drops of oil and it shot like a champ. I traded into the Wilson and in typical Wilson style it shot great also, at some point I will change out the rear for one with a smaller notch. The 640 is one that doesn’t get shot that much either, it shot great also. I sometimes carry a S&W 642 and shoot it regularly, the difference between the 2 J-frames is light night and day with the 640 winning. The Glock 43 is one of those all the time pistols and was what I was carrying today so I put a couple magazines through it.

Older pic but I ran the WMB in a SS for a class this evening. I am very new to more tactical style pistol shooting. This thing made even me look good. As usual, no failures, just under a couple hundred rounds. I was hitting shots that I have no business making, albeit slower than the regulars. It's just so easy to shoot. I lost a lot of time on the draw and reloads but was darn close for the shooting speed. Not me at all. It was tons of fun and I'll go back. I was easily the youngest person in the class by about 10 years, and one of two running a 1911. The other one was a single shot kimber. All very nice people.

Switching back over to the X Tac as my primary competition and training gun.
The trigger, front strap, and beaver tail are different on my X Tac than my GI No Name. I find thay I need some practice with it to be able to shoot well at speed. Likewise when switching back to the GI after shooting the X Tac for an extended period of time.
This was my best 3 shot string of the day. The drill was simple: shoot 3 shots from 25 yards at a B8 target in less than 10 seconds.

Full disclosure, my 5 shot strings didn't look nearly as nice. I can put a 5 shot string in the black, but barely. I think my concentration starts to break after about 3 rounds.
