Disappointing range day

[Xbonz]

Thanks to the mystery may be solved. I changed my grip to one where my left thumb rested on the frame, good possibility I was impeding the slide... Thank you sir.

Hopefully, that is all it is.... Been there, done that.

When I shoot thumbs forward, my left (strong) thumb rests on the safety, weak thumb on frame under that

I usually have my thumbs fairly close together. Short thumbs doncha know? This time out I tried the grip as it is shown in the RIA video.



Guess there's a chance my thumb was putting pressure on the slide. Going to pick up the pistol and try it my normal way and see how it goes.

Good luck my friend! Where do you shoot? Lets get in a range day sometime, if my current ammo supply allows!

How much does it usually cost for your trip there? Do they allow you to bring your own ammo?
