I went to the range again this morning and shot at the USPSA practice that they hold every Saturday.

Things are progressing well. )

Sounds like you are doing solidly. Honestly, any sub 2.0 reload, if it is a CONSISTENT thing, is good. I can occasionally knock down a 1.1, etc., but not consistently, so like I said... ;)

I like the open guns, they look fun, but they aren't for me, at least not now. One of these years I might mess with one.

You should shoot a match, or even several. The best way to practice for matches is to shoot matches.

Oh yeah, and shoot/move, you can work on that at home. Just set up a target and walk around, forward, lateral, reverse, etc., while maintaining the sight picture. If you can keep the gun level while moving, you can shoot while moving.

I've started doing that a little bit. A friend of mine just bought an airsoft G19 and was in the process of building target stands today. I'm going to go shoot his airsoft and work on the shooting and moving in that way to. I'd buy an airsoft myself, but that's 647 rounds of ammo I could buy otherwise. Everytime I get to that point where I consider buying something I new, I wonder if I should just buy ammo instead. Guess what happens?

Speaking of things that are new. I sent you an email about that tungsten guide rod. Did you get it?

Yeah, ammo and shooting a real gun should take precedence. So do some airgunning with your regular gun, it's free. :)

I did get your email, will probably send that thing to you this week once I get some breathing room...

I'll go check it now...

I don't care how you would handle the situation if you ever came face-to-face with Osama.

Hahahahah!!!!!!!!!!! I find this pretty funny also. They'd piss their pants and run, is what they'd do, 'cos O has got a lot of badass dudes with Kalashnikovs traveling with him.

It's not funny because they'd piss their pants and run, it's funny because the likelihood of it happening is infinitesimal.

He might have a lot of dudes and they may have Kalashnikovs but I doubt they're badass. As a rule, brown people can't shoot very well.

They know how to handle knives, tho . . .

You know the old adage, "Never bring a knife to a gunfight."

I figured that my quip about brown people would evoke more of a response, I am pleased that it didn't.
