well I have been off work on holidays
I was meant to be going away over to Victoria for a weekend of Black Powder Shooting and then a bit of a hunt after that
however that did not happen due to me spending way to much on my car so..
stayed at home just so happened to be the Combined Services State Title Shoot on while I was off so off to get some Ammo for the Match and a little bit more for a bit of plinking :)
so the CS Match
I ended up with
Saturday
Pistol
C Grade Silver Place with Class 1 (.9mm).
C Grade Gold Class 2 ( .357Mag. )
Sunday,
Rifle
Grade C
Class B Silver ( the good old .303)
Gold Trainer Rifle ( hehe Borrowed someone's and won hehehe )
during the week I went back to the range for a little more plinking
wish I shot like I did then on the Sat before :'( :'(

Come to Florida! Haz will adopt you. You just have to be Hazerita boy and keep mini-Haz from bayonetting himself. I'll pay the air fare if I get the recipe. ;D

Well, I guess if I gave Green Mountain Gringo a hard time about shooting a DA gun SA, then I need to do the same to you. (Fair is fair after all) ;)
If you are going to shoot that gun like a sissy, you better paint it pink.
;D

If it will make easier for you to own down there (part of a feminist affirmative action thing or some such) I'd say go for it.

That's to make it easier for unskilled shooters with no trigger control to hit stuff. ;)

You can take it. ;D

Except that you're still probably shooting more accurately SA the he is DA. That should take some the sting out of it. Sorry, if I want precision I cock the damn thing. If I want rapid fire I use a Glock.

Ahhhhh.......that would be a big negatory. Wherever the sights are when the trigger breaks is where the bullet is going, SA or DA. It's called practice and familiarity with your weapon. If you own it, become proficient with it. Besides, most revolver DA triggers are better than a glock trigger any day.

On the better than a Glock trigger we agree.The only thing I like about it is the fact that there is a "break" where you know its going to go bang after the long takeup. This makes it OK accurate. But OK accurate is all I bought them for. This new Smith I have, is a horse of a different color. Not something I would choose over the Glock for SD, but scary accurate on the range. I have to say, I'm not sure I still want to sell it. The gun has grown on me.
