Nice looking Clark PPC gun. I knew Jimmie Clark and had quite a few conversations with him at Camp Perry during the Nationals over the years. His workmanship was impeccable. I'd buy that in a heartbeat!
I shot PPC from 1969 as a rookie officer until I moved here in 2017. Love the sport, too bad it's still not practiced like it use to be. I had 48 years on the job and spent the last two as the director of training at the Flint Michigan Police Academy. There are now more practical training programs and courses for police officers, but PPC is still a great start for the basics, either with a revolver or semi auto. And nothing like it when shot with a wheel gun!
Anything by Swenson in a 1911 is a classic and another buy in a heartbeat! I'm over plastic guns, they are great for reducing the weight on an officers gun belt which gets heavier as new gadgets come out. But they just don't have the appeal of steel and wood, or Pachmayr/Hogue grips!
Nice purchase, hope you can find a PPC match to try it out in!
Just my opinion.
