Hey guys - I appreciate all the feedback. It sounds like the SP-01 would be as good as anything for practical shooting. I always felt a little slow shooting a 1911 in .45 doing controlled pairs/double taps/hammers. I just couldn't get in a hurry or accuracy suffered too much, even fairly...

Have you ever shot a 9mm auto with less felt recoil? And if so what was it? I'm looking to get back into practical shooting and I wanted to go with a 9mm this time since ammo prices are a bit steep for my 1911. I have heard that the SP-01 feels about like a .22LR when shooting it, and I would...

Thanks for the info guys.

Has anyone been to the USPSA Nationals before? I believe they are in Tulsa, OK this year. Specifically, how are the matches from a spectator point of view? I'd love to see all the fast guys from TV battle it out, but can I even get near the action? Where to stay? Camping? Any advice I can get...

Hey Mods - Sorry to do this, but I am going to re-post this under General to see if I can get a hit.

mquaack - This may sound strange. I saw the new Walther SP22 at Shooters Supply and I think I may pick one up. Since the price of ammo has gone crazy, I bought a Ruger MKIII (.22LR) and I have been shooting the heck out of it and really enjoying it. I put optics and all this stuff on it and...

mcquaak- I was in Kiesler's today and the guy told me they had 50 of them on order! Of course, they didn't have any in stock as I'm sure they are one of the places you checked. Two other places I've checked don't have any either. I'm seriously thinking about blowing my LCP ca$h on another...

I've been debating the same thing myself. My 1911 has about 4500 rounds through it and has started "crunching" the last round ejected from a mag. Plus, I have a stripped grip bushing. Does anyone know what kind of turnaround time SA has? Thanks

I bought a Mark III target model (not the 22/45 version) last summer for the exact same reason. I have a 1911 that became too expensive to feed, and I specifically went to a gun show to see/feel the 22/45. The problem is, it didn't feel like a 1911 to me. I'm not sure why? I then proceeded...

I have one too I work at a hospital where prison inmates come for treatment. I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. A few years ago, one of the guards in a patient's (inmates) room shot a hole in the wall while he was practicing his "quick draw". Let me say that again. This guy was sitting in a hospital...

A different thought Wow, I can't believe I'm the only one that does this. My "car" gun is a SW J-frame that I keep in the pocket on the back side of the passenger seat. That way it is always secure and easily within reach, but it can't be seen from outside the vehicle. I keep the snubbie in...

Indiana is one, but may have added pistol.

I have seen guys use "opposite" hand shotguns in tactical-type competitions. The strings of fire typically are for 2-10 more shells than what the shotty will hold to start with. If you fire until empty, the quickest thing to do is single feed the last couple shells if that is all you need. I...
