Shot it last night, pictures later today.
My emtry.
7 yards, wadcutters loaded to MAX. Shot 4 targets, these are the best.
with Iron sights, single action, 3 1/4" group.
With Laser sight, 1 3/4" Single action.
Fired 5 shots right, then 5 left hand (one hand) and realized I was shooting left hand right Eye. I shot another target with my left eye, a little more spread out bue centered better.
Laser is a no brainer. Both Eyes open, hold the dot as steady as possible and squeeze.

One more try since its christmas, I used the S&W 624 that was my dads.
5 shots left hand right eye, 5 shots left hand left eye, 5 shots right hand right eye.
Nothing fantastic, but I learned shooting from the left hand, shots go right. Not enough to matter in a close encounter.
Then I used my Bulldog. On this one I found out the silver sights show up better on the black bull.
Merry Christmas

I have been following this thread with interest. I have a couple of questions. When you say right hand, left hand, does that mean one hand or can I support my gun hand with other hand?
I am going to shoot my S&W Ladysmith, Model 60 with 2" barrel. I will be shooting my Kimber Ultra also. (I can't have the Kimber feeling left out.) Does the Kimber count as a "stubby"? Three-inch barrel.
Thanks

I mean one hand in case the other one gets shot or cut off in a situation.
Go ahead and shoot the kimber. Be sure to show pictures of the gun and target.
This is all in fun, Just get out and shoot, so you can be better with your firearm of choice.
With participation as low, you will probably win.

Last Months Winner is WYO with 1.82" C to C.
I shot a few targets with my LCP last week. Had some good ones going then a flier on the last shot almost off the paper. The trigger guard smacks my finger. Left handed, I could not take it and flinched big time.
FOR FEBRUARY we will shoot 7 yards 2 hands DA only. 10 shots.
Hoping for more response

This is a cool thread....
I didn't pay a lot of attention because I'm no great shakes at shooting snubbies, but I've acquired two 'J' frames and I see that some of you are about the same speed as I am and the fun of just participating is a real draw. I might throw my hand in. I really enjoy looking at other's targets, especially something challenging, like a snub.
Question: Is all shooting done in DA?

This month its DA. Sometimes it can be both. If you tell us how you shot, it is fine. I make it DA because all those 642 type out there.
gman-51 if you want to know how your shooting stacks up to others, follow the instructions in the first post and shoot this months match.

Of course I don't see this thread until we came home from shooting today. My dad, son, and I took the .38 snubbies out today (along with the 617, the model 60, and the .44 stealth hunter. Had a great time, even though the targets didn't show it. That and once I figure the picture thing out here.

Well no need for me to show my targets. Most here are shooting better at 25 yards than I shoot at 10 yards.
Even using my Sig P226 at 25 yards I still can't shoot as well as ya'll are doing with snubs.
99% of the time I only shoot from a 10 yard point so at 25 yards I can see the target but I have to walk to the target to see where I even hit. Ya'll are much better shooters than I am for sure. I will enjoy watching how ya'll are doing though.

Nice stocks. So far you are in the lead! I need to get out more, I always carry a 637 with CT laser grips. I should shoot it more.

My entries for February. That 342 is a wonderful little carry gun, especially in an ankle holster, but it is snappy to shoot! As usual, I shoot best with the K frame Model 10-5. Not sure why one of the photos is rotated when uploaded, but you get the idea.
