Did an action pistol match on Saturday, and a PCSL 2-gun match on Sunday. I did tolerably well on the action pistol match, but I need to practice moving and shooting more. I... Got DQ'd for a major safety violation in the second stage of the PCSL 2-gun; I was sprinting to the last shooting position, slipped on wet grass, and fell, dropping a loaded firearm. (To be clear - it's the 'dropping a loaded gun' that's the safety violation; a bouncing firearm is going to break the 180 rule.) It was really disappointing.
On the other hand, my handgun worked flawlessly in the action pistol match; I'd had a major issue with it in the previous match I'd shot, and while I was pretty sure I'd corrected the problem, I wasn't sure.
Holy shit it was humid; the rain stopped for both matches, but that just meant that it was oppressively hot and humid. Woooo, climate change... :/
