    Need something new: Competition pistol

    So after just a few doses of competitive shooting, I find myself already addicted. What I have been doing is IDPA and carbine competitions, and to be competitive I need a pistol that can run with the big dogs. I am usually the youngest competitor and the guys I am up against are 35 and up with years of experience and fancy guns to boot.

    I do not want to run in the enhanced division, or in IPSC open. So far I have been running my Glock 34 in stock service pistol, and it gives me a slight edge over some competitors I believe. The extra barrel length, lightened trigger pull, extended slide release, etc are all from the factory so I can legally run the pistol with no problems. That being said, I just don't shoot as well with it as I do with 1911 pattern guns or other hammer fired pistols.

    The carbine matches I run require pistol transitions, and the Glock is long and awkward to draw when I switch. the good thing about the carbine stages that require a pistol though is that there is no pistol classification, so you can run whatever you want.

    I need something that fits the bill for both, and if I can find something right I am willing to pay good money for it. I think I might just bite the bullet and get a Wilson Combat or Ed Brown 1911, but if there is something else I am all ears.

        get a super, it can be loaded to make major power factor and the recoil of a super is very controlable.

          My witness out shoots all of my Target pistols (for some reason). It's based on a cz75. I hammer the competition shooters with it.

            I have looked at those as well. I have a cz75, but I can honestly say it has the worst trigger out of any pistol I own. It has way too much positive engagement, the hammer moves back damn near a quarter inch before dropping.

            I guess the Czechs have a different idea of "single action" than I do. That being said, I like the gun and think it would be a lot better with a trigger job.

              you should do a trigger job. My witness is an immediate release. No problem grouping at 50yds.

              If you come up for the holidays ill bring a few Target pistols out, take a few for a test drive.

                I've been looking at the CZ75 (almost bought one yesterday.) I read the trigger gets better the more you shoot it?


                There's also the SP01 Shadow custom - but your going to pay for it. There's one on gun broker for 1160.

                The dual-tone Shadow Custom is a competition ready IPSC Production Division pistol. Starting with a trigger job by world champion Angus Hobdell’s CZ Custom Shop, this version of the SP-01 Shadow gets the competition treatment including the Custom Shop’s fixed competition rear sight, and the slim-line Aluminum competition grips, competition springs, and a CZ Custom stainless guide rod. Are you ready? Standby……

                      I cant stop looking at the phillips screw head on the grip though! Ugly fastener for a slick pistol. Maybe i'm just weird.

                        You remember the stories John use to tell us about the the three chinamen playing Fantan? This guy runs up to them and says, "Hey, the world's coming to an end!" and the first one says, "Well, I best go to the mission and pray," and the second one says, "Well, hell, I'm gonna go and buy me a case of Mezcal and six whores," and the third one says "Well, I'm gonna finish the game." I shall finish the game, Doc.
