The Walther PPQ M2 family of pistols have extremely accessible controls. Almost too close for my liking, but give them a try. One of those steel PPQs would be competitive for sure.

I like broadside’s fly fishing idea. I don’t do it myself, but the skill involved and the outdoor part definitely appeal.

Billiards can be practiced at home and allows for local competition. It even has a “classification” type of skill rating system. If you are near water, there are usually competitive rowing or outrigger paddling clubs that offer weekly practices and occasional competitions.

I've never shot a match like that, but it looks pretty interesting. It's kind of hard to tell much from the diagrams, but I do like movers and ispc targets. Mostly because I don't see them very often here. I never really thought about comparing the match entry fee to the round count, but I do like matches that have a distinctive style, so I would probably go if I could.

It’s actually a choice within your color options. Black heavy duty I think it is called. I did the thinner version which may have been a mistake, but it seems ok.

I just did the r/c owb quick ship holster from JM Custom Kydex for $42. Nothing fancy or double layered, but it seems to work well.

I managed to get a box. $66.90 to my door......Yikes! Oh well.

Did a little mallet testing of my own with primed cases and the springs and FP I had on hand. CZC extended FP with rami FP spring - ignition with mallet. I can confirm that, with the 11.5lb mainspring, the hammer rests on the slide, and the tip of the FP extends past the hole. Stock FP with rami FP spring - NO ignition with mallet. This might be the best scenario, as the tip doesn't extend past the hole, but the hammer is still resting on the slide with a 13lb mainspring. This setup lit off CCI with a DA pull. Stock FP with stock FP Spring. - NO ignition with mallet. The stock FP spring does hold the hammer off the slide however (if it matters). Even with a 15lb mainspring. This setup lit off CCI with a DA pull. DA pull was 8lb.

Just sharing some Sport Pistol info from my chrono session this morning. Felt soft and the 25yd freestyle group was all in the head of a USPSA target (not the A box, but I'm not that capable).

Sapoutfitters has the receivers.

I just buy 10/22 receivers from S&P Outfitters.

I like my Berger Precision one a lot. I ordered through facebook.

I think that is the 507C.

Maybe.... your stiffest belt $0 2 RLN pouches $35 Safariland 5197? $35

I use ACME. I like the new profile version 124, and their shipping is real fast.
