What your Competition Pistol Says About You

What does it really mean that you like a CZ more than a Glock? What does it mean that you like 2011s? All that and more on what your USPSA or IPSC competition gun says about you.

I'm a coder and shoot revolver LOL. I got it though: You like being different just for the sake of being different. You get asked "Coke or Pepsi?" and answer "Dr Pepper". You have crippling ADHD which is why you bought a gun that comes with a fidget spinner. You move like a crippled sloth, so you like having the excuse of a more technically challenging reload while moving. You have the easiest gun to dryfire with, but you never do. You can blame the heavier trigger pull for every mike. Despite the mythology of revolvers being "more reliable" your gun is more finicky and prone to breakdowns than Open guns.

Walther shooters - you have class like 007, you value functionality, reliability, and style. You are a gun guy who also likes Apple & Adidas products. You drive a Lexus and shop at Lowes more than Home Depot. You fully fund your retirement plans and are the reliable guy that everyone asks for financial advice. You have a collection that includes of Glock, M&P, Ruger, and Springfield. You aren't a kid and you have the money to buy the perfect gun out of the box. You've changed a couple springs, use a fiber optic front & blacked out Dawson Precision sights. You shoot like a boss and know more about guns than the neanderthals that spend all their time shopping for guns but never shooting them.

[@donh1572]

Yet you pretend that the high bore axis doesn’t matter because your gun returns to zero. Even though it flips more than a dolphin at a sea world exhibition. The slide is so chunky that it would be a good candidate for a body Acceptance award at a woke event or as a former weight watchers picture in an upcoming commercial. You talk about the amazing precision crafted guns but try to hide the elephant in the room, that they are owned by Umarex and they put Walthers name on some very sub par guns over the years. Walther would have been out of business a long time ago, but James Bond is your Lord and Savior and keeps the brand alive

[@ironmonkey1512]

The underlying premise is bad though, who has just one competition gun?

[@jcnikoley]

I shot in US PSA open division starting in the late 80s through the early 90s. What my gun said about me was “this is the best I can afford”. I was shooting single stack when the other masters were using double stacks. I had a double port comp while they had hybrid comps. I was using an aimpoint PDP3, while they had C-mores. It gave me a really good feeling when I would have a stage win, or beat the local GM that didn’t have to reload when I did. All my money went towards my shooting. When I turned 22, I moved out of the house and could not afford to shoot that level any longer. I even ended up pawning my open gun to make rent. Now I have the expendable money, but will never shoot that level again with my 49 year old reflexes. I shoot for fun now but my guns are nicer.

[@tnh723]

49 is still young. Dont put an expiry on yourself. 47 here. You can do it!

This needs an update, there has to be some stuff you can come up with for Beretta, Walther, and HK.

That was pretty good, 🤣 but as someone who doesn’t have, but desperately wants a Walther Q5 Match SF, I’m a bit disappointed you didn’t mention that. Hopefully, you’ll come out with a part 2 and include that, and some other pistols, like Beretta, Canik, FN & HK that weren’t in this video…

I definitely try to convince myself that replacing the s2 TRS is "not that big of a deal." Even though I spent 30 mins cussing at an inanimate object last time. The new design TRS is even more of a pain to install. The new TRS has a longer leg making it harder to seat.

[@Quality_Guru]

LOL - That was great. I don’t shoot competition, but always wanted to, and was saving for the “right” pistol. Now I don’t even know what to get. Maybe I will show up with a revolver and compete against myself in a division that no one is interest in.

[@X420BlazeNoScope]

Hey that's what I do, except I use one that the manufacturer claims to be for competition, has 7 instead of 8 rounds. Gotta love standing reloads but hey at least I won the division

[@robertbiermann4666]

3 gunners comment was funny! Accurate, yes sometimes we use pistol matches for practice and don’t care where we finish. We use them to test gear and get some plate racks in. I have shot them from the hip on some stages, used only weak hand on some stages and re-holstered and drawn on every target on a stage. No, I don’t care where I finish, sometimes. Sometimes I do try to compete. I do care where I finish in all 3 gun match’s. Some of the best pistol shooters I know are 3 gunners and usually they are top 1 or 2 in the pistol matches. Great content! Super funny!

Revolver shooter checking in, I feel slightly offended my "slow" Division was left out of this video and DEMAND (not really) to be included in the follow-up. Needs at least one jab at how I can't even reliably count to 8, and the super specialty ammo that won't work in any other gun except my 929. Technically 9mm but 160gr with a 1.175 OAL may as well be exclusive to that gun since it can't even fit in a magazine. Oh and I say "clips" all the time, because Moon Clips. But really, shooting revolver and beating people in Limited (occasionally Open) feels so good. Add to that people watching are invested, hearing the groans I feel inside when I miss that one shot and I needed all 8 for the position is a cool feeling. Even better when you hook up and it all goes right. Good video. Started USPSA shooting a Glock 17 and can confirm, I eat oatmeal almost every morning for breakfast. (sobs quietly)
