October 2008 3-Gun Match...

Okay, before you watch the video, take a look at this picture, and fix its meaning firmly in your mind:



Ok, got that? A magazine blithely falling out of my weapon whilst I attempt to keep shooting, happily oblivious to what is going on.

This will of course come as no surprise after that picture, but I did not win 3-gun today. [sigh]



On the good side, I know why my magazines weren't sticking, and it won't happen again. Also on the good side, it was still a lot of fun.

On the bad side---it was REALLY annoying at the time. And like the video says, my run took 50.29 seconds---24 of which was taken up attempting to make the magazine work. With the accuracy level that I managed on that stage, I probably would have gotten first in my division in 3-gun today had I not had that problem. [sigh]

Ah well. Two weeks until the next pistol match, I and need to really work on some dry fire practice. Same as always---dry fire accuracy, trigger control, reloading, and reloading on the move.
