    Unless, of course, a Bernadelli 32 wadcutter pistol follows me home.
    Took it to the range yesterday along with my STI 9mm TargetMaster with the idea of deciding which one I can shoot better. I must have done something right in a previous lifetime. Shot one inch, 5 round groups with both pistols at 33 feet offhand. I'll probably never do that again. An opinion shared by a few skeptics in attendance.
    It doesn't happen all the time but I sure love it when a plan comes together.

    These are great guns! Congratulations! Grip angle and long sight line makes it the most used 9mm for competition target shooting over here.

    I have the one with the large 45 frame with the 9mm slide. The grip is very thick. I got a much better grip on it when removing the grip panels and taped the grip with skateboard tape. Doesn't look too good but my score went up!

    Yes, When I first saw it I was concerned the grip might be too large, it looks like a 2 x 4.
    But it doesn't seem to affect accuracy. The actual wood grip panels are real thin.

    You can also get aftermarket grips of aluminum that's even thinner. I'm not sure who makes them, but they are out there.

    It has a grip profile reminiscent of a Benneli 76 to my eyes. Very nice!
