Me and my buddies went out so shoot today. All we brought were pistols though. Mainly because we all got new pistols recently.

Heres what we brought with us. Glock 19, Glock 17, XDm .40, XDm 9mm, Desert Eagle .50 AE, Browning Buckmark, two 1911s, Taurus PT100, XD45, S&W Sigma .40, and a Ruger GP100 in .357 Mag.

Over all it was a good day. We had an 18x18 steel target at about 15 yards, and another at about 25. I recently downloaded an app on my iPhone from Surefire. Its a shot timer. Gives you the time from the first shot, and the time between shots. I was using it and shooting at the target at 15 yards. I was able to hit it every time a few times shooting fast.

EDIT: Seems the time charts arent copying and pasting right.

With the Glock 19 I got the first shot off at 1.80 and was done with all 15 rounds at 6.45. Longest split time was .47 with the next longest being .37.

Then with the XDm .40 I was able to get the first shot off at 1.41 with a total time of 6.62 seconds for 16 shots. Split times were the same as with the Glock 19. I actually got a .47 split time on the second shot with both pistols.

My friends were really impressed with me being able to shoot it that fast and get a hit every time. I was telling them that proper grip and stance are the best way to get it. So I was showing them how to use the thumbs high hold and thrust the gun out infront of you.

Another thing I learned is that the thumbs high grip is a bad idea on a Desert Eagle. It will bite you pretty hard. lol

P.S. .50 AE Desert Eagles are awesome. Im getting one.
