So ... com'on Danny!! We need a range report!
Yes, I did go, and it was a great time. Damn, sure shows you how BAD you are, though! lol
I need to learn to shoot from cover, to move while shooting, etc. Six stages, I think I had one procedural penalty and one non-combatant shot. Damn. The procedural was that I was supposed to draw and be moving backwards while firing 6 shots at a moving target - no, a swinging target! I got the target pretty well, but forgot to start moving backwards until I had started shooting. Dangit. Oh well.
Overall, it was a good time... I sure learned that I need to work on shooting on the move.
And shooting moving targets.
And shooting from behind cover.
And reloads.
And drawing from concealment.
And everything that is essentially not just standing and shooting at a piece of paper at an indoor range. lol
Wow.... I gotta lotta work to do!
Not sure I like the 1911 for this stuff... damn 8-round mags suck arse.

I wouldn't call 2nd overall a bad start!
Sounds like you had fun and found out its way different than a typical day at the range. HOPE your hooked on it.
If you only got one procedural that's not bad for the first time. Jack loves to get the non-threats close so they get shot plenty. Heck 6 people shot them this week.
I assume you shot a .45 1911, that should have put you in CDP, not SSP. Everyone in CDP will be using 7 or 8 round mags. So your not at a disadvantage shooting within your division.
The glock 22 can shoot in SSP, depending if you what modifications you have on it. Everyone there will have 10 rounds or less in their mags. If you reload look into .40 minor, it will bring the recoil down to the 9mm level.
2nd? Huh? Do you know something I don't know? Only way I coulda been 2nd was in my CDP and Unclassified... and that'd be if there were only 2 of us in that group!
Exactly... I was CDP/UC. I only had 2 mags for the Glock, so I ran my 1911 .45. The Glock has nothing but a slip-on Hogue grip. I don't reload (yet), but I will definitely be getting into it, as I think this is something that is going to occupy me more than I expected!

So ... yeah ... you could be SECOND!!
