Since my CCP finally showed up in the mail I thought I should get familiar with my P3 before I started carrying it. Not sure why but I've never fired it since I bought it, until now.
I was shooting using some reloads, 100 grain FMJ. I shot off 100 rounds of it with only one jam on ejection caused by a limp wrist. My shooting wasn't consistent as the gun is hard to control. After the first two magazines I decided to put on the mag extensions and my grouping got much better. I did dry fire it a few times forgetting that I had fired off the last round. I'm hoping I haven't damaged the gun. I guess I'll see when I get it apart to clean it for the first time.
I now have a Pachmayr grip on it and hope that will improve control a little more. Overall, I'm very impressed with the gun. Worked flawlessly and I was concerned having read about how it's been hit or miss for some people. This is an awesome gun and will be perfect once I start carrying it. Another plus is that the range also had some Hornaday Critical Defense which I've been trying to find forever, plus they had a ton of range ammo as well.
Here's a shot of my first target. The worse groupings were before I put the mag extensions on. This is from 35 feet, or 11 and 1/2 yards. Yes, that one in the yellow spot was intentional. I'm satisfied being my first outing with the gun. I can't wait to go back and do a little better.
