Well,I'm so glad we get a week at this
I decided to put my Viper Holster on my Utility belt and get some Draw technique practise in
I'm still a bit on the large side so needed to adjust the buckle to get a decent fit of the belt (aint paying the silly prices for the extension to the belt). It needed putting into the grab section of the belt
Being thick nylon, I needed to put a lil ole pressure on it with a tool. My tool of choice for this task would normally be a flat bladed scredriver
I didnt have one to hand so grabbed a Phillips that was nearby
Ouchthing went through the nylon belt and embeded itself inside the knuckle joint of my trigger finger on my left hand
Luckily I am right handed, but as I pulled the implement out whilst gritting my teeth, I felt the tendon twang back into place and all of a sudden I felt quite I'll.
For such a small hole the pain was unbearable. I've cleaned the wound and my tetnus is up to date etc, but i find typing one handed very awkwardHope to get my scores in tomorrow Jim

I've been re profiling the adjustable rear sight on my ppk this evening,
Going to shoot some practice rounds tomorrow and see how I get on.

I haven't had the chance to get out and shoot it yet myself, Crabbet: been "out", yes, but working in the yard.
I also am going to do a practice run first: I generally just shoot 5-10 rounds for a warm-up, but this competition is SO different, I want to do a complete practice run.

Know what you mean. It was meant to be raining here today so I'd intended to loose a few off; however they got it totally wrong as usual and it was a cracking day. Took my horse out for a stroll instead. Tomorrow is set fine so will ride out early and give the day a chance to warm up before I shoot.

But, you don't need it for THIS comp: fast shooting, yes: fast draw, no, since "time" starts with the pistol in your hand.

First scores on way
Hi Jim,
PPK scores on way to you.
Zastava scores hard to read, I do need to short out target paper, by the end of stage one a whole part of the 8/9 area had been torn up and shots were not able to be registered.
The PPK was much more fun though
Loving it.
