Thumbs up First Custom Carry Range Trip

So I took the new CC to the range today, unfortunately my son could not make it so I had to go solo today.

Les Baer Custom Carry with 1.5

Indoor range.

200 rounds for Winchester White Box.

6 magazines 2-Les Baer, 2-Kimpro, 2-ACT

Shot at three distances 7, 15, and 25 yards.

The gun has an incredible tight lock-up.

I had problems seeing the front sight as the lighting was low but not so low that the tridium kicked in.

The trigger brakes without any creep but it seams to be a bit heavy.

Pic before the shooting session, mag's left to right ACT, Kimber, Baer:



48 Rounds at 7 yards:



Next 48 rounds at 15 yards I had a number of flyers here as I think that I was hurrying my shots:



8 rounds at 25 yards:



Unloaded the remainder of the rounds at 15 yards:



Obligatory dirty gun pic.



No failures of any kind the gun ran like butter.

The gun is more accurate than I will ever be, all I need is to have rounds hit center mass and this gun does just that.

I am one happy camper.

Sorry for the cell phone pic's.

Glad you're happy with it, Mike. Congratulations on the new purchase. I wanted desperately to buy a Baer a few years ago but found them so tight I wasn't strong enough to rack the slide
Enjoy. And shoot safe.

Thanks guys.

The worst of the trip is that as I was walking out the door my grandson asked if I would open up some dvd's that we had just bought him at Sam's Club. I ended up getting one deep paper cut across the the pad of my shoot'n finger.

The finger hurt like heck toward the end of the shooting session.

I am really liking this gun in that it really has a nice balance to it.
