Skychief12,
Good training discovery. I found a similar relationship between muzzleloader rifle (hair trigger) and archery with release aid (set very fine). They seem to work synergistically for trigger control and follow through. For some reason shooting one helps to improve my shooting with the other. I know what you are talking about with your training with the Kahr and gaming with the 1911. You're on to something as far as training goes.

I'm using my PM40 for IDPA, just because it is my carry sword. I have NO question that my scores would definately improve with a gaming gun, but I want to be as good as I can with my PM carry gun. There's No bug class in our IDPA game either. As long as my improvement curve keeps moving upward each time, I don't worry about the rest of the game. It's all about the gun handling improvement with my carry gun. But again, I concur with your training method.
