The only thing I have done to that gun is cut 2 coils off the recoil spring to lighten the pulse out of the slide return. Other than that it is box stock. I'll be putting on some Dawson Sights this winter though, the straight eights suck for competition.
I use a ContourHD camera from VholdR mounted to the bill of a baseball hat. If you check the MI State match video I have on youtube, you can see it on the camcorder video.
I shot this on Friday in a middle of a typhoon. Pouring rain and wind gusts up to 40 mph. As you see in this video, the shooters on Saturday had a much nicer day. It was a great match and I will remember it forever, I got 2nd as a sharp shooter and was bumped to Expert! Congrats Cody, btw, do you want to sell your old camera?

Yeah, I shot Friday too and the weather really sucked. Nice COF and everyone did a great job making this happen.

You were supposed to step to cover on stage five before the first shot. You got away with a procedural! ;)

Yep, right after I shot the head my brain went "the finger is sticking out", but alas no finger, no procedural. :)

I was the SO on that stage and I missed it! It would not have changed your final score enough to matter.
I shot friday and did not do well. I sot a PT1911 as well.

The PT worked great. I was very pleased. It wouldn't have hurt, but it wouldn't have helped either. that death jam on stage 16 really hurt me though.
Thanks for enduring the rain and SOing on sat.
