I think my best time of the day, on one stage with a pistol was 2.56 seconds.
Tee hee
& 3.19 was my best time with a rifle. Surprised myself, apparently I can shoot kind of a little sort of maybe, fast. Unfortunately I had feed issues so even with my worst sets removed from the scoring, my overall times are probably not as reflective of what I can do when it's hassle free. Makes it hard to gauge improvements in technique. Thats ok though
I did have fun in part because I had never shot a competition with a pistol (so it was novel) & because the pistol I used was a very, very, very nice pistol. Thank you (you know who)
Speaking of amazing shooters, I also met & shot with LimitedGM yesterday. He was an excellent person to observe (super nice guy too) as well as everyone on my squad. Very good day.
Ahh, the power of competition to highlight any and all weakness in your gear! [emoji1]
Great job.
Oh... & I took my first frag hit. Yay!
Erni, speaking of gear, another thing of note, I have a scope on my rifle & its not a true 1 power so it DOES actually take me a little longer to shoot those targets @ that distance, by a full second sometimes even two depending on the stage. I used another persons dot rifle to do a comparison.

Did LimitedGM get you signed up for the state Glock match coming up in July? There are lots of prizes for that, and even categories for women, and LEO and what not. It's not as fun as what you've been doing (zero run and gun) but it's a good experience. It really gets you to work on your waiting between stages skills. For as huge as that event is, it's very well run.
He made mention of it.
