No offense taken.

Keep in mind that (1) there was a guy shooting his .44 magnum (hand cannon) in the stall next to me. Everytime he fired a concussion wave hit me. (2) I was more concentrating on putting rounds through it and seeing that it wouldn't jam. (3) I wasn't braced at all... this was standing with two hands and new unfamiliar sights. and (4) It is a 3" barrel. I'm not shooting a competition with a bull barrel and a scope. A three inch barrel with iron sights does have limitations.

In any case... with my 9mm as a home defense gun 8" groups unbraced and in semi rapid fire will be more than sufficient to do the job it was intended. Trust me... if I propped myself against a brace, steadied all my shots and the wire my target was hanging on wasn't swinging violently downrange, I'm sure my shots would be much tighter.

EDIT: I just pulled a ruler out for curiousities sake. Remembering my target last night I would say my groups were more in the 5" - 6" range. My eyeballs haven't been calibrated in a while sorry. I was thinking 8" was a smaller diameter.
