Yeah... x2

As much as I have an appreciation for Race guns. The majority of games that go on are combat oriented. Exactly how many U.S. Marines... or any Soldier do you see carrying around a pimped out STI Target Pistol?????

Combat guns are BLACK.

Nobody would bring that thing onto a field. None of you seem to understand that it's an IPSC pistol.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but does IPSC not stand for International Practical Shooting Competition. I just don't see a gun like that as being very practical. Especially with all the sharp edges, raised sights, extended baseplate. I don't want to have that catch any skin on the way out of the holster.

On a sort-of related note, what's with the "ISPC style magazine holders" for your belt. How is placing the mag at that angle outwards practical in real life.

Exactly. In addition to the many law-enforcement officers carring matte black Sigs, Glocks, M9s and the like. And I do have a great appreciation for the custom-gun industry. It's something a little different. I'll take a plain old black Glock 17 any day over that...thing.

Don't bet the house on that.

This thing is a tactical shooter compared to "standard" IPSC pistols. Especially for the open class...

In other words, this was designed to never, ever go onto a field. It is purely for target shooting. And at that, given that it is a CL piece, it will probably excel.
