[Why no love for the full size steel Witness?]

 
What are your options for sights? Sources?
 
Small frame or large? Does it take readily available CZ or Tanfo mags?
 
Fit a standard CZ model's holster?

(Tristar P120) I love the stock 3 dots. It takes standard cz 75 mags. It comes with 2 mecgar cz 75 & +2 baseplates (19 rounds) I also use sarsilmaz 17 rounders. And I used an m&p holster in the vid. Retention didn't work, so it's just a gun bucket.

Have you considered a Tristar S 120 or P 120?

I have a P 100 that I really like a lot.

CGW offers a ton of parts to upgrade the pistol.

I polished, replaced sights and springs, and that is it.

Runs like a champ and a very smooth trigger.

I am in to it for a whopping 450 bucks.

I just purchased a P120 from Buds for 400 shipped. I love the thing! I really like the stock trigger and reset.  Being a beginner, I think I can go really fast with it. And then when I feel I'm better than the gun, I can get some springs to customize it at CGW.  I think I made a good investment with the TriStar P120. Here's some some fun action vids:

Tell Pro Gun Club their web site sucks. [emoji38]

Oh yeah! Haha. I had to find out through USPSAs website and contact list and reach out. They told me you can follow them on Facebook. Search iscope group. They actually sponsor the events.

[How often do you live fire practice?]

I hit the range at least once a week.  I would only shoot 50-100 rounds of 9mm.  I just picked up one of those laser trainers, and I have one of those Ben Stoeger scaled target packs for dry fire practice, Now that my grip is tuned pretty well, I think I just need to practice my trigger control, so I am live-firing less these days (used to be 2-3 times a week).

Do you guys do anything special for your dry firing?  Like Snap Caps or anything?  Or do you just do a regular dry fire with nothing in the mag or chamber?  What type of firearms?

 

Seems like everyone is posting up that they are doing a ton of dry firing (which makes sense and is good) and I just want to make sure that it is okay to do with my XDM 5.25".  I'd hate to do a ton of dry firing with it and then find out months later when something breaks or wears out then someone tells me that I shouldn't have been dry firing a striker fire without snap caps or something.

 

On striker fired guns, the firing pin is flat in the front, so its cool to dry fire those no worries.  On hammer fired guns (like my CZ), I destroyed my firing pin retainer.  sheared straight through.  I fixed it with CGW parts.  Now every time I dry fire, I throw a A-zoom 9mm snap cap in the CZ. 

[What are some tips to "riding the recoil" to the next target?]

Something I struggle with and still work on consistently.  Lead with your eyes, then your gun will follow is what people say...    

 

The leading with your eyes really helps with the transition to the following target as you won't over swing that target.  Over swinging makes you have to recenter and such which slows down the entire transition aspect. 

Right, I read that in Mr. Enos's book. What I like to do at range practice is on a fresh paper target at 5 yards, shoot at the left shoulder then the right shoulder as fast as I can.  Vary the exercise with pairs and triples on each shoulder.

Welcome.  You're in such a fantastic area for the shooting sports.  

 

Good luck!  

Oh yes, its quite fun here in the Valley.  if anyone is interested and didn't know, Pro Gun club in Boulder City has A super fun 'dynamic' steel match once a month, and paper target matches every weekend besides steel match weekend.  So every weekend is something fun.  Its about 20 miles from the strip.  If you stop by Vegas, you should check it out Saturday or Sunday. 

 

Thanks for the kind welcomes

Mr. Jack,

I bought a P09 that I love! I shot one steel match with it.  Then I bought a P07 (mainly because of the 22 kadet kit).  I found I like shooting the p07 way better.  It has faster (for me) target acquisition with the 1 inch shorter radius, and for some reason I ride the trigger faster than the full size. 

Heres a few links of some action vids:

 

I had some mag troubles on this one I blame the wind ;P :

 

 

my first comp with the P09:

 

Thanks for the welcome guys!

Hello everyone! I just signed up here and wanted to say hi.  I am just starting up in pistol competition and thought I'd try this forum out for some learning.  Sorry, but I'm not really schooled in online forum etiquette.  I tried Glocktalk, but I don't really like it there, so I wanted to try here.  I really really really like Mr. Enos's beyond fundamentals book, and look forward to being a grand master one day! Thanks for stopping by!
