i have been considering getting a ruger 22/45 mark iv and giving speed steel a try. not that i think im any good, but that i will be fun and cheaper to shoot than 9mm
Ruger seems to be the standard for rimfire steel challenge. I run a 22/45 and 10/22. I'm considering trying a tx22 competition instead. I prefer the grip angle. I've been running CCI Clean ammo. It's been reliable. The last order was $0.09/round shipped, taxed.
I'm no good either but I enjoy it. There's a lot a fine, like minded people at the matches. Much like the chainsaw gtgs.

i figure i can get a new ruger for 500 ish or a used one for cheaper to give it a try. im so much shakier than i was when i was younger but i think i can still hit the steel plates. the problem i face is i dont have weekends off of work.

$500 seems right. Tandem Kross and Volquartsen have some nice upgrades. I have a thumb rest that is helpful. Volquartsen trigger kit, Holoson 507 too.
I found a local steel challenge league. We shoot monday nites.
This site is a great resource to find matches. https://practiscore.com/dashboard/home
Its also nice to login and follow my score, compare it to prior matches.

Looks like a Sig 365xl
I like those sigs but not the price
The rost martin feels really good in hand
I prefer the original arex design
oddly magazines for the rost martin are only like 18.00 so I ordered 5
Same mags
Arex mags are 25.00 and up
No idea if they're american made or not.
I'm starting to prefer the arex to the ruger rxm and my other striker fired Pistols
Just a simple well made pistol
Nice double action trigger.

Here's a rost martin they bought gave designs for the Arex delta and redesigned it slightly View attachment 458629
It's manufactured in texas
Could not believe the beretta px4 price
At one time a version of those was made by stoeger wasn't they?
My friend has one it was like 200.00

Not sure who manufactures them. I believe they are a rotating barrel instead of the common Browning tilting barrel. The exception in the PX4 Storm sub compact, that is tilting barrel. A friend had one. Horrible double action only trigger. He sold it for over $500 on GB and bought a Canik Mete and had money left over.

Have any of you guys had any experience with the CZ P-09? The full size one.
It seems to fit my hands very well, and very comfortable, but I haven’t shot one. Any reliability issues or comments you can give?

I've shot my friend's original p-09 quite a bit when he first bought it a few years ago
He also bought a p-07 for his daughter a realtor to carry
It's hard to fault anything about them good trigger's and ergonomics
I like the new nocturne they have out

I have both P-07 and P-09. They have both been great with no reliability issues. They are great guns!

Thanks fellas! That’s what I was looking for! I’m very close to pulling the trigger on one. Pun intended. Lol
The Nocturne 4.5” is what I’m looking at.

One thing I've never owned is a ported pistol
So I ordered one of these just to put a ported barrel in it
These have very good reviews on YouTube.
I already have like 30 mags and holsters,parts for the glock 19
I really like the g force rapture I bought last year.
Hopefully this is not to hideous being
Cerakoated white.
I can always change that.
