Another qualification with the PM9 and all went well.
The PM9 ran like a Singer sewing machine.
40/40 ain't too shabby for an old guy. ;)

No, I shot with the Lake County SO at their training facility in Tavares.
They run an excellent HR 218 program.

Really like my PM9 too, it's a great little carry piece.

We do have to do the course in time, I just didn't look it up. The target most use here is the B-27. Even with my eyesight and nerve damage in my RH I'll still average 220 with my PM9. At one dept. I'll go shoot at, the range officer is a good friend and he is just amazed at how well my PM9 shoots when he shoots it.

My PM9 got some attention from two of the range officers.
One commented on how well it shot...not how well I shot with it. :)
