On my phone right now so I'll have to add pics later. I did some competitive pistol shooting for a few years. Mostly "Bullseye" which is shooting targets at 25 & 50 yards one handed, standing, unsupported, with a .22 & .45.

Red dots are allowed and I had one on both my Springfield target 1911 .45 ACP (accurized by Springfield armory) and my Ruger "hunter" (7.25" barrel) .22. The 1911 has a 4.5lb trigger (the legal minimum for bullseye) and the Ruger's is 2lbs. Mostly just did local league shooting but did go to two full 1800 matches (180 rounds fired) and scored expert with both the .45 & the .22.

I also have a custom Fusion commander sized 1911 with tritium night sights on it (My ccw gun). As well as an EAA Witness Match in 9mm with custom grips (my action shooting gun). The Witness Match is a very underrated gun. Super accurate and has never failed to fire even when playing with different ammo). A very fun gun.

My favorite though is my 1976 Smith & Wesson 41 Magnum (yes .41). 6" barrel and a hair trigger. I can hit a dinner plate at 100 yards standing unsupported with it......and then hit a target at 20 yards without changing the sights.....a very flat shooting round.

I do have a five stage progressive reloader and make my own ammo for the .45 and the .41. I just buy 9mm and of course .22's.

A "promotional shot" for our bullseye league - me with my Springfield Target with a red dot:

Here is a generic picture of the EAA Witness Match:

As well as my Ruger Hunter (minus the red dot):

That gun was specifically set up for "Bullseye" shooting. It also has a lighter spring in order to cycle properly with the much more accurate lighter target loads.

I have a bolt action CZ Silhouette that is just stupid accurate. Instead of shooting a milk jug at 50 yards we were shooting the caps off the milk jugs.

My carry is also an officers 1911 (.45). I prefer SAO pistols and four out of my five are. But I come from a competitive shooting background.

Here is my 1976 .41 Magnum:

That's pretty cool.

It's funny....I have a fair number of hobbies (and even more if you go back in time), but I guess I'm just not a collector. Right now I enjoy pinball, guns (almost entirely handguns), and watches.....with some very minor interests in audio/video (and headphones) and EDC tools/knives/flashlights....and a passing interest in photography (very passing).

But I don't "collect" in any of them....not really. I find things I enjoy using and then make minor tweaks/changes to those over time. I've owned 19 pinball machines but never had more than 6 at one time. I have about 6 guns that haven't changed at all in years, and about 12 watches (trying to get down to 8 or so). Guess I never really got hooked by pure "collectability" in anything.
