We reached the end of the outdoor shooting season here in Switzerland, with two friendly club closing pistol competitions
First my own club. Ten shots at 25 meters and ten shots at 50 meters
I used two different (but almost identical) SIG P210-6, the 9 mm for 25 m (bottom) and the 7.65 mm for 50 m (top), so I don’t have to mess with the sights at different distances

First two practice shots, perfect, almost too good to be true

Result. Finished 3rd out of 27 with 139/150 and 29/30 on the practice shots, used to break eventual ties.

More Swiss shooting
The week after we were invited by the Lausanne police corp shooting club.
25 meters competition, 5 practice shots and 20 competition shots on the ISSF speed target
Again the 210-6 9 mm is my weapon of choice, with vintage military ammo

Result, 2nd out of 19 with 188/200 and 46/50 on practice, used to break ties.
And I made some money, as you get 10 Swiss francs if you score 175 or better and another 30 Swiss francs for 2nd place

Love your post and what a nice way to end the shooting season. I'm glad to see shooting in another country and the quality of weapons available. The Swiss are definitely doing things right.

Wow! It always amazes me how different things are there, versus the United States. Looks like the good food is as much fun as the shooting!
