    Gees not me for comment!
    I know a bit about the range design rules, but not the comp rule book(or at least for those type of calls)

    I'm still a VERY amateur (immature) shooter really - but keen!
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    Just one.....

    Plus, just go along, bring some ammo, return with the brass, and a few memries of having a laugh....

    And if your a shit shot (like me), just shoot more quickly and you'll win! Its a great mix.
    And the reloadimg is cheap/easy, most of the pistol shoters are a relaxed, good barstards, etc,....

    @gimp

    What holster do you use with your shadow?

    I was thinking of ordering the Double Alpha PDR Low Ride Holster.

    What do you recon?

    And good luck with the SI Champs.

    I haven't been to an Island or National champs since 1994.

    Cheers
    Pete

    You can't draw quickly from it, even with the retention backed right out the pistol binds in it and it twists up against the belt. There's also a bit that gets in the way of your thumb and stops you getting a proper grip on the gun when drawing

    @gimp

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Might have to reconsider my holster choice then.

    What do you like about the Ghost holster?

    Cheers

    It's easier to draw from.
