I use just the basic SLIP products. 725 gun cleaner and then EWL lube afterwards. Generally break down and clean it every 1500 rounds or so, add lube periodically between cleanings if looking dry
My biggest issues (not even a big issue though) with IDPA are that I can't use my actual carry gear (AIWB holster and mag pouch) and in battery reloads are penalized. I don't see it as defense training whatsoever though, just a chance to work on skills.
I still play along and just use strong side IWB though as IDPA is the only weeknight option around here
Seem to be somewhat random with the factory spring. I think it's a good practice to just go ahead and replace the stock one with the Cajun trigger pin and spring.
Keep the factory one as a backup for a match bag
Also, Oak Hill has the following prices right now
Shadow Custom - 1249 (but out of stock)
Shadow Custom Target - 1454
Accu Shadow - 1531
I normally would say Shadow Target but with the Accu Shadow being within 100 of it, might as well go for the accu
Stuart posted this in another thread elsewhere

Target II, adj sight in factory dovetail, checkered al grips. ( Available through CZ-USA)

Know what, I goofed up. I grabbed the list from another site then linked the article to her homepage. If I had used my own link, would have shown the equipment list you have

If it was for range only, I wouldn't bother with backup sights
I've seen others mention that they use the sights to find the dot on the first shot but I found them to just be a distraction personally
600ish... I am a die hard Glock guy, but the 320 is nice. It has a better trigger then the glock (even a tricked out trigger). The only issue is their aren't a lot of parts for it yet, and it is still just left over P250 slides. But when Taran comes out with a base plate I may switch over.
I've seen quite a few in the 500 shipped, just got to wait for a sale
I haven't shot one yet as I don't want to be tempted to switch right now
