Our USPSA winter league started.

 Our annual USPSA winter league started and I decided to shoot my most recently acquired, but rarely shot P07.  Overall I came in middle of the pack, which surprised me as I thought I did poorly.  Some days you just don’t perform well- this was one.

1st stage was an eye opener for me as I did well on what I thought would challenge me most and did poorly on what I thought would be easy.  The procedure was to shoot one array freestyle, perform a reload and shoot the other array weak hand.  One array was 3 targets with various hard cover painted, the other was 2 standard and 2 mini pepper poppers.  Decided to freestyle the paper targets and weak hand the steels.  I shot the paper quickly - and it showed, but surprisingly got the steels in 5 shots.

I tanked the classifier, again going too quickly and pulling shots low  & left into hard cover.

Still a fun day.  Needless to say, the gun performed perfectly.  I hope to shoot the P07 throughout the league and improve my performance..

I sympathize! 

I pulled out a single stack 1911 and shot it on Thursday after many sessions with the P-10 striker pistols, mainly the P-10S.  Talk about a different pistol!  I still shot it OK, but the trigger was treacherous and the grip too narrow for my hands.  I have some thick rubber grips around here, I may have to try them.  The gun itself is nearly perfect, mechanically, Kart hand fit barrel, EGW trigger parts.  Shooter is the problem!!   It is easier--and safer--to go from a bullseye match trigger 1911 to a striker gun than the other way around.

My P-07 is a nightstand and carry gun, iron sights and all.  I did win a local bullseye match with it using a red dot temporarily many years ago.  Scored almost the same as with my 97B"E".  Fine pistols.

As long as you had fun and got back home safely, that’s all that matters the most  👍.

Yup, my metric is having fun.  I do want to do well, but don’t get worked up if I tank a stage ( or more).  Key is did I have fun shooting challenging stages with like minded folks.  If I did, the day is a success regardless of the score.  Though winning is nice too

Shot an all steel match on Saturday and missed poppers on the first stage.  They are usually my strong suit but not Saturday...LOL

I feel your pain.
