First time back in eons

Ok, I shot my first match since the 80's. Found out I need contacts to be able to shoot. Couldn't obtain a good sight picture with my glasses. SOOooooooooooo.... I was really really bad. :(( Already got a eye appt. for contacts. :))
Sent the Encore out for a trigger job already to a smith recommended on Bellm TCs website.. That didn't help either pulling that anvil of a trigger.
So hopefully with a trigger job and contacts I'll be able to see the sights and targets.

To be honest it quite embarrassing. But oh well, it was the first time. Hopefully it can only get better.

The main thing is that you're back! :YMAPPLAUSE:
You might also try Jim Henry for your trigger job. If you can hold off and make it to the WCC, I think Jim will be there and you can have it done right then.
Again welcome back!

I would say "Welcome Back", but I don't feel I'm qualified since I just shot my first match in over 25 years a little over a week ago. ;)

I'm right there with you. I'm re-joining IHMSA and will shoot my first match since the mid 90's. Can't wait!!!
