I shot my 5th match with my Tripp Limited gun today. It is still running perfectly. One of the stages, required a reaching/leaning shot to the right. I am left handed and for some unknown reason, I switched to my right hand and shot the two targets!! It was not planned or required, it just happened and cost me several seconds.

Anyway, despite my mistake, I won my first (local) match in limted today. There were only 6 people shooting limited. I am still unclassified, but should be soon.

There were 30 shooters in all and I finished 11th overall. BJ Norris was shooting production and won production/5th overall. It is pretty darn cool to be listed on a ticket with a World class shooter!

Thanks again to ALL of you for your inspiration and motivation!

Wow that thing is almost so preatty I would not want to shoot it. Great looking pistol!
Lifes journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body,
But to skid in sideways totally used up, and worn out shouting "Man what a ride"!
