Went out this weekend and shot my SIG Mosquito. Haven't shot it in a while. I am concentrating on not pulling the trigger on my handguns but on squeeeeeeeezing the trigger. I hope it gets to be habit soon. I don't seem to have the same trouble with my rifles, but my pistols I have to really concentrate on. Anyway, lets see what you all have. Any caliber handgun, any position except bench. 10 rounds at 10 yards. Target is anything that gives you an 8" circle with a 1/2" diameter bullseye. I used Remington Thunderbolts, 40 gr, conical nosed bullets at an indoor range. Here is my entry.

And the pistol.

I also have a mosquito, but with the threaded barrel for a suppressor. Won't be able to shoot this weekend, got plans already. I will try to work some shooting in again this month and post a photo here if I do manage to get it done.

I'll be sure to shoot my $200 carry pistol this weekend. I'm predicting a tight group. :)

Might take my Spartan V out this week end and post pics, if some one can please give me a fool proof way of posting them. I have tried NUMEROUS times with out success. I would like to show off my shooting prowess (or lack thereof) with my handgun. Any help would be appreciated.

To post a picture, first you have to upload the picture you want to post to a photo sharing site, like Photobucket. If you pay for a membership here you can upload the picture to the site's gallery. Next, open the picture and then right click on the picture and click on properties. In the new box that opens highlight the URL so you can copy it. In the post that you want the picture in type the command , then paste the URL and type the command after the URL. When you submit your post it should show the picture instead of the commands. Hope that makes sense.

My new witness 9mm with 119 grain lead reloads, it groups well but hits 3 inches low and a bit to the right. being off of windage I can deal with, but I FUCKING hate when a fixed sight gun hits low.

So with the .44, were the first 5 shots the ones that made that one big hole or the last 5?

My SIG Mosquito shoots about 4" high at 10 yards. I had to aim at the bottom of the target circle to get close to the bullseye. I do have two other front sights I can put in, one to raise the point of aim and one to lower it. I just need to decide to put it in.

Still a great grouping. Much better than mine.

File that front sight down a bit. Damn good group
