In most states, personally-owned firearms may be transported legally if they are unloaded, cased, and locked in the automobile trunk.

Nice purchase. I was never a fan of the trigger that the 92 had. If you're happy with it, thats all that matters.

I just sent in my paper-work today for my CCL. I will have my permit in hand in 6-8 weeks.
Keep looking. If you're anything like me, you'll find one that just calls you. This wasn't the exact weapon I was looking for, but after finding & holding it, I couldn't walk out without it. lol

As for the CHL, maybe getting so used to the weapon isn't as important as you think. Here are the range qualification requirements in Texas:

Quote:
A total of 50 rounds are fired during the course of the qualification test. A score of 70%, or 175 points of a possible 250, is required to pass. The target used is a TX-PT which is a human-shaped silhouette target measuring 45 by 24 inches. All shooting is from the ready position, which means the gun is already in your hands and aimed in. No holster shooting or shooting from concealed is required.

Course of Fire:

3 yard line - 20 shots:

1 shot in 2 seconds, 5 times
2 shots in 3 seconds, 5 times
5 shots in 10 seconds, once

7 yard line - 20 shots:

5 shots in 10 seconds, once
1 shot in 3 seconds, 5 times
2 shots in 4 seconds, once
3 shots in 6 seconds, once
5 shots in 15 seconds, once

15 yard line - 10 shots:

2 shots in 6 seconds, once
3 shots in 9 seconds, once
5 shots in 15 seconds, once
source
That's surprisingly easy. You can pass before you even get to the 15 yard line.

And thanks for all the congrats, guys. laugh

Just got back from the range with my new friend, and I'm even more in love now than I was before. It shoots like a dream. Easy to hold & to fire. Not too much oomph to be overwhelming, but definitely enough so that I feel confident if I ever have to defend myself with it.

I did mediocre in accuracy, but that's because I was more having fun than aiming. For example, for my last 12 rounds, I put 3 in one mag & 9 in the other. Fired three off quick at the target, dropped the mag & slipped the other in, then unloaded the other 9 as fast as I could. From about 10 yards, they all hit the guy in the stomach. Not bad, since I wasn't really aim. lol

from 10 years out? that is a massive amount of sniper-ability.

Glad you like your new weapon.

Uh, no. Gun either says on me, or stays with a lock on it, and the key stays on me. If someone breaks into my house, they will be getting shot. Not the other way around. End of story.
