spd522 Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Im using a Para 18.9 LDA. It can be shot in SSP and ESP and i shoot Para guns in IPSC so it uses the same frame size. I love my 1911's That may work at local and club matches but you may find the P18.9 LDA not allowed in larger matches. It is over the 39oz. SSP weight limit. It should be OK for ESP. I have a P18.9 single action I shoot in ESP and love it. I agree that the 9mm LDA is an excellent gun. I intend on getting one for USPSA Production class someday.

I'll probably use my S&W 5906 but have considerd my M66. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangram Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 CZ 85 Combat ESP or SSP with a reworked trigger, fiber front, CZ hard rubber grips, grip tape on the straps. Worked well out of the box... Nothing wrong with a Glock or _______ I just have a inclination toward something different. The CZ works excellently.

Joe D Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I mostly shoot a G35, but have been playing with a G21 loaded to a 135 PF. Those 200 gr SWC lead bullets make a really nice hole. I figure I saved at least 2 seconds the one match I have shot it in due to the large holes. There were 4 or 5 shots that would have been -1's had I been shooting a 9 or .40.

bierman Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I use my duty gun for both SSP and USPSA Production, a Beretta 92 FS. The only thing I have done to it is the D mainspring. I am thinking about going to the Elite IA because I hate the tiny front sight on my FS, but there is not much I can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacted Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 A couple of years ago Bob Vogel won the WV state IDPA championship with a USP 45 i believe it was an Expert model. Competition is only what you make of it. As long as what your doing aligns with your goals and makes you happy everyone else should be thrilled. I was on that squad. What a pleasure it was to watch him shoot. Oh, yeah, what do I shoot in SSP .....S&W 6906 PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Casper Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I originally classified with a S&W Model 39, but now I use a Glock 19. I am a revolver and 1911 fuddy-duddy and don't shoot SSP much, but I am classified just in case I want to switch guns for the heck of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chills1994 Posted October 2, 2006 Author Share Posted October 2, 2006 gunfighter, is your 226ST too heavy for SSP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 gunfighter, is your 226ST too heavy for SSP? My 226ST .357 barely makes ESP weight... with either the factory plastic grips or Nills. (SIG's website says 42.2 oz with mag). So this year I've just shot a Glock 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
