I am interested into getting into competitive shooting and at the same time, I need a new CCW weapon.
I am a huge Springfield Armory fan and see they have released the Range Officer Compact and Champion models, both in 9mm and .45 ACP. If you had to buy one gun that you would use as EDC and use for competition, what would it be and what Division of USPSA or IDPA would it be?
I'd prefer to use a 9mm as the ammo cost is cheaper and I do not currently reload. I don't know much but I thought I read/heard bull barrel 1911 will make it illegal for certain divisions.
I'd like to be fairly competitive with this gun. I know practice and mechanics are going to be more important than the gun. As my father always tells me when golfing after I hit a bad shot and complain I need a new driver, it's not the arrow, it's the Indian.
