USPSA has a new Pistol Caliber Carbine category.

I have a Colt R6430 9mm carbine that I bought back in 1992. I've mostly used it as a sub-caliber trainer for my AR-15s, and I can shoot it on the indoor range and on steel plates without worrying about damaging the backstop or the plates.

I shot my first sanctioned USPSA match with it yesterday morning. This match had a lot of longer field course type stages. I really enjoyed shooting the carbine, though I felt just a little bit awkward a few times from being a little rusty.

I'm going to continue shooting the PCC through the summer so I can get classified.
