Please - go to some matches and try different guns. Rugers are tough and good guns but they aren’t right for everyone. Lots of folks like the feel and balance of a Colt or Colt clone. Make the choice yourself. No one but you can decide the best fit for yourself.
Just my $.02 worth.
If you haven’t sent your app in - do so soon. You will be on the wait list but at least you stand a good chance of getting into the match. Don’t wait!!!!!!!
