Points well taken. I think I'm going to buy a holster (which I probably won't ever use for carry) and shoot a match or two with one of my snubbies.
I would like to have the shooting time with the gun and the draw isn't that important (horrors!).
Now to throw another monkey wrench. I have a new 432 (that's a 32 Mag) and that's not in the approved power range, IIRC.
I think I will ask the range master if I could shoot it as I really would be off the books and don't care about the competitive aspect as much as the practice aspect. I would like to see what the gun can do.
I got the gun as a present. Neat little revolver.
The problem with practice is that if you just to the range, it is punching paper. I do that for technique practice but wanted a touch more with a common carry gun.
