In my cousin's words, "It turns out, the gun was the problem."
« on: December 20, 2021, 10:16:07 PM »
This was after shooting my Shadow 2. Every shot was placed exactly where he wanted and he had his best shooting session ever. Turns out, every other gun just isn't as accurate or as easy to shoot as a Shadow 2. I think this is a good perspective from a person who likes guns, but doesn't dive into the minutiae as the online folks.

Had my wife take a couple of shots with my S2O a few days ago. She complained it was heavy, but shot it well. If the S2 was a $700 gun, it'd take over the world.

Some people shoot certain guns better than others. Some guns are easier by nature too shoot well than others. The human hand though is a poor medium to chronicle the true mechanical accuracy of a gun. Few people can shoot a snub nose revolver even close to as well as they can a full size pistol but mount that same snubby in a ransom rest and be amazed at how accurate it can be.
All that said I've always found my CZ's to be the best shooters in my own hand compared to others I own and have owned.

This has been my experience as well.

I shoot everything very well....some are just more comfortable than others.

P.S.

A friend shooting one of mine.

I love snub nose revolvers!!!!

Until you shoot an accurate gun it's hard to understand what that means.

I was ruined from the days of the S&W 586 6", the Ruger Mk1 5.5" bull barrel and the Colt Combat Commander.

Spent a lot of time/money/effort learning the P07 .40 and P09 9MM I have are awesome, too.  If they don't shoot a nice group - it's my fault.

I just keep wasting time and money on other brands trying to find/make one shoot like my P07 and P09.  What is wrong with me?
