Newbie with new CT380 gold slide
Hi, I just bought the gold version of the CT380. Came with 2 mags, both too heavily crimped on the bottom plate to open without tools. A little tapping of a chisel where needed and they work fine now. Couldn't find a place in AZ to rent one, but finally found one (and one only) to handle at a gun show in Phoenix. Haven't shot my CT380 yet, but I've field stripped it and exercised the recoil springs well.
Have a class in cleaning and lubing in a week and a half followed by a beginner marksmanship class. I'm handling the recoil springs well enough. Went about finding the lightest gun that I could get all 3 fingers on the grip, only to discover my concealed carry purse weights almost 2 pounds. Need to get that cow replace.
I've ordered the itargetpro laser system, and want to get good at shooting from waist level. Bummer, local shooting range won't let you shoot from the waist. I'll be visiting their competition a lot I expect.
