Champion firing video

Fired four rounds in the first video and then my thumb accidentally engaged the slide stopper. The slide stopper is extended type so one has to be careful not to engage it accidentally.

One shot missed the target therefore three shots are visible in the first target sheet.

Thanks for the video. The jump is pretty evident, what is your take on that? Is quick follow up shot possible with 50-100 round yearly practice.

Seems like the only decent Made in India pistol. Though the ammo is still pretty expensive. I think I would get the full-length pistol if I had the money, might be easier to control from what I remember of shooting a friend's 1911 COLT.

Thanks to all friends.

Yes, ammo is expensive and as more and more people buy MSD and Webley .45’s, ammo shortage will cause the price to go up. Import of ammo is very limited.

What ammo are you using, Vineet? That looks like a very decent pistol and pity you can’t reload with a or even use cast with a tailored load. My be a bit of a sharp boot with full house 230gr loads

Good shooting Vineet.
Requires a lot of practice and training to do an effective double tap with a short barreled .45ACP.

Vineet, thanks for those videos and targets.

This is so much more helpful than those "how the pistol comes out of the box" videos, as we see how the gun reacts in your hand, as well as how well it puts lead downrange.

Your shooting shows what one would think, that the gun does react with barrel rise when shooting. I'm also seeing that you had no problems with feeding, which is sometimes encountered with these compact 1911s. It appears as if they did their job when engineering the short pistol.

A fun day at the range for you! Thanks for showing some meaningful and useful shooting pics and vids with us.
