Aww, well thanks Chris! It was awesome meeting you as well (great shooter too!). I really appreciate your donations and all your encouragement! You guys are awesome!!!! I met Micah Barcelo and Bill Seevers. Two awesome guys as well. Thanks to them as well for the encouragement and donations! I think I finally figured out which one of you is trouble..... it's got to be Micah!? JK! I hope to run into you all again in the future!!!!

The first 1911 I shot was at a small match shooting a Springfield with adjustable sights. I have never shot so good in my life. I was able to get a better picture with that sight for some reason. Don't ask me why... Anywho, that's kind of why I am stuck on them.

I was just wondering if dry firing was bad or not. I know people who wig out if their pistols are dry fired. I personally don't have a problem with it, but know I wonder about it. So whats the deal?

I was just hoping someone could give me some opinions on the new Ruger SR9. I never really have been a fan on Polymer pistols, but for some reason, this pistol might get an exception from me. Anyone shot one?

(This doesn't seem like the right place for this, but there were not really many other options!) Hello, I am new. Someone sent me over hear from another message board. I have a question or two for anyone. I am getting into USPSA and am now looking for the right match gun. I am already getting a 45ACP SA Loaded, so I don't need much help in that department. My question is actually About 9mms for Production. I wanted to get a 9mm anyway, so I started looking and figured that I'd get something I could shoot Production with if I wanted to. I kind of have narrowed it down to these, because of my price range and specs: CZ-85 Combat 9mm Para LDA Tac-Five 9mm I considered this EAA Witness too, but I don't know if I can use it in USPSA. ? My question was in regards to the Para and the reason I was directed to over here. Someone said, "Before you buy a new Para, go talk to some folks that compete who you trust. Or go ask on the competition specific forums at: http://www.brianenos.com/forums/ Their "Power-Extractor" has a less than stellar track record with people that shoot a lot. And being a proprietary part, you're essentially stuck with a Para replacement. No aftermarket solutions, like an Aftec extractor, which normal 1911s use". So, what's the deal? Is this really something I should worry about? I plan on shooting a lot and would rather not have to replace my gun very soon. Also, I had also considered this CZ-P01, but I wanted adjustable sights. This one doesn't have them, but is the gun any better than my first choice? I have heard CZ has some reliability issues. How true is this? If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. I am a very small person with small hands (4' 11"). I have to get guns that will fit my hands comfortably. Also, if anyone has any other suggestions to offer, I would love to know! Specs that I am sticking to are adjustable sights, 5" barrel, ALL METAL (no polymer) and the $300-600 price range if possible.
