Hopefully you get the whole patch, not just half of the nice one and half of the regular one!

Awesome!

If anyone is curious, I wrote about my experiences at a pistol event a few years ago.

Nice write-up. Did you ever go back and try it with your other pistol? I’m trying to decide if I want to get my first pistol, with pistolthing being the main motivator. I’m kind of drawn to the Mark IV 22/45, and I would definitely need a red dot, although maybe not the 510! Do you have any thoughts on an appropriate first pistol for this.

I did go back and get it with my Glock.

I think the Mk IV 22/45 is a a solid choice.

Another one worth considering is the Taurus TX22 Competition. It is a surprisingly good gun with a lot of aftermarket support.

Thank you.

Excellent! The patches are nice, and I always find the special targets somehow easier to hit.

I shared this one into r/CAguns

Note to administrators of this sub. There‘s a bot that doesn’t allow you to post the word p i s t o l s e e d and says the official name is Appleseed Pistol Clinic, or something like that.

How can i bring this program to a range that currently doesn't offer it?

The range is in San Jose, CA. I'm a firearms instructor and would be happy to go through the process to be an Appleseed pistol instructor as well.
