Been selling off all my other pistols because of it

Funny you say this- am trying to sell one of my 1911s locally to fund a P01, PCR or SP01.
Yeah, been trying to sell off a custom RDS Glock 22  I had built. No such luck so far.

Another successful day shooting the P09 at a match. Came in 3d in SSP, 11th overall. A buddy videotaped on of my stages & was amazed at how little recoil was shown-- I knew the gun handled it well, but the slide appeared only to go back, no muzzle rise. Am loving this gun.
Like a midget at a urinal, I'll have to keep on my toes

Yep, I shoot mine in IDPA and also in our new local sport GADPA.

So enlighten me- what's GADPA?

I'd consider a P07, but just got a Sig 320 (another sweet gun)

GADPA is a very nice blend of USPSA and IDPA. Use of foot fault lines, but the target has two different sized zero zones, one for minor and one for major.  You only have to have one zero hit to neutralize a target, so if you are super accurate you shoot half as much. It's pretty flexible, but it's what resulted on the IDPA 2013 rule book revision and the change to required to classify for a major match, and the catastrophe that was the 2014 Georgia state IDPA championship

I started shooting GADPA in April '15.... sounds like I missed out on the fun.  :)

I'll shoot IDPA... but it's not my favorite. I like being able to manage my reloads as I see fit... so much prefer GADPA.
