The way my son shot, glad he was on the yank team.......... But for a 16 yo he had a great time, special thanks to Benny & China for not letting him shoot himself and for putting on a great afternoon, I'll try to post some pics tomorrow

What exactly are you trying to imply? The way I was shooting, I'm surprised I didn't get traded to the Yanks!
the thought had crossed my mind....

I apologize to team USA for not showing up. Although by the looks of things I do not know if I would have been a help or not. Please keep in mind, no matter what the results were on Saturday.......we still won the war!
ONWARD!

USA gets to keep little brit if selurcspi keeps telling him to slow down, and every once in a while throw in a little talk about front sight trigger squeeze.
Get that boy a little bit more quality practice, and he can show the rest of us how it is done.

It was definately a Trial by Fire for him. I think it was the 3rd time he'd fired my pistol or any pistol for that matter. Now he's bugging me for his own pistol now I'll forward the positive words to him Ben......thanks

He did exceptionally well, considering the pressure. He has potential to go a long way with some experience and training.

The more I hear about this shoot the more I am about missing it.
I'll try to join next time!

Yup - that day sealed it for me - I am on to building a Race Gun now. Benny - I was really impressed with how you shot.
I have a 1911 that is just sitting here doing nothing for me - a compensator and a bunch of mags.......
We shall see what I can whip up in the short run here - a race gun looks fun to play with - mine will be in 45 shooting fluffy bunny loads
Next time ......

I have been thinking of putting one together based on the XD. But there is a 3 month lead time on the barrels. And I am having probelms finding a comp that has the same threading as the barrels.
Glock and 1911 setups look easy to do. Still expenisve, but easy.
