New Shadow came in today...Rob & Angus Rock
« on: April 14, 2009, 08:41:02 PM »
A big giant thanks to the guys a the custom shop!! Thanks for the help and the speed of service!

I went to my local FFL to pickup my new shadow but had a hard time get the guys to let me have it...lots of ooos and ahhhs...and plenty of grief for the red grips. I really am glad I got the red ones!

While there we compared a 75 that was in the case...no surprise I guess but it wasn't even close to feeling the same.

I left that shop and went up the road to the shop/indoor range and put a quick 100 rounds through her. WOW what a nice shooter. The first mag was basically a ragged hole at 10 yards...I had a couple flyers but only because the range is SOOOO loud inside...and I got jumpy from the guy next to me blazing away.

Just thought you guys might want to know...

Congrats on your new purchase.  I go to the range during the week days at opening time. I usually have the place to myself.  8)

Nice! Looks just like my shadow except you have a polished barrel. How did you polish it?

The polished barrel hood is part of the Custom Shadow package, not sure how they do it.

 Very nice. I like the grips on it. Plus I fixed your title and yes Angus and Rob do rock.

Nice looking Shadow. I LOVE the red aluminum grips!! Are you going to use that thing in USPSA for Production division or just a range gun? ;)

Well Addict - I might just shoot some production this year. I got "promoted" to C class the day after she landed in town last week...that to me is Karma...I'm 0.26 % away from C in SS...ugg

I'm going to use it next weekend, along with Angus, (well, he'll BE there too) at the Blue Ridge 3 Gun in KY. Seems none of you local guys wanted to go... 8) I didn't know Angus was going until I just looked at the squad list. I'm not on his squad which would be cool but I'm hoping to be a little more mixed in with the "beginner class"...I don't think our local side matches are quite the same...and yes...I'm in WAY over my head with this match but it WILL be fun. I hope to get lots of pics and video. Drive down with the Mrs...you can run a camera.


Here is a link to the match.



Here is a link to the beautiful park.


Thanks MrsArmor!

Looks like a heck of alot of fun! Thought you were going to do Fort Benning this year? I recognize one other local, Jeff on the squad list and a couple of USPSA Youtube phenomenon, Angus and Kaci. Try and convince his CZness to do the Ohio State Championship in October. Me and the Misses will be doing that. Sorry cant run the camera for you - have to do the MRPC that weekend. I wanna see that sweet Shadow run on the following week! Be safe at the 3 gun match and enjoy meeting all the new folks.

It should be mentioned that Rob is a GM too!  You can find a few vids of him shooting on youtube and on this forum.
