Blackwater Steel Challenge Nov 19th

[Robb Jensen]

I shot my M&P9 (3rd match with it so far), and didn't do too bad. I did my own trigger job, I'm using a Wolff steel Glock 17 recoil rod and 15lb recoil spring, Dan Burwell rear sight, Speed Shooters Specialty front sight and skateboard tape. I used American Eagle 115gr FMJ. It was a great match and I'd love to shoot it again, I think there's one in the Spring 07.

We shot 7 stages from the Nat'l Steel Challenge, I shot a total score of 142.58
my scores were:

Showdown 18.98, Pendulum 24.12, Accelerator 19.61, Roundabout 17.77, Outer Limits 23.38, Speed Option 23.06, Smoke & Hope 15.66

How do you like your M&P? Looks like a great shooter. I am anxiously awaiting the .45 ACP.

I love it. The M&P to me doesn't feel much different at all than my STI 2011 that I've been shooting in Limited all year. I've handled (not shot) the .45 M&P about a month ago (Ernest Langdons) and it's damn nice. Rumor has it that it will be available in a few months.

Awesome I was 3rd in Production and 12th overall. Not too bad for my 3rd match shooting the M&P9. I do need to work on my draw speed, I got spoiled shooting a Race style holster (Ghost holster) w/my STI all year.

I guess they said since I was using the 17 round mag I had to do limited even though it was stock.

It's BS that they made you run Limited just because you had 17 round mags. The guy specifically told me that I could use my 15 rounders, just to load them with 10.

When is the December match?

[Robb Jensen]

There isn't a December match. There should be one in January if it isn't snowing.

[mark5pt56]

No big deal in a sense. I used one mag anyhow for two runs so I could have loaded them to 10 to be in the Production class if I knew.

That's the first IPSC match I've done in about 10 years. I stopped doing them at Dam Neck when people you or anyone never see shoot always won and then the sand baggers on the qualifiers.

This club seems pretty squared away though


I think they have them every third Sunday?
