Match #1, final results

[ac12basis]

OK, its Monday, so final results of the 1st Match AP match is:

score  shooter        gun                    sights            pellet
91    - ac12basis,   Walther CPM1,  open sights,  Vogel Sport
79    - daved,         Diana P5,          open sights

see you next week and hope a few more of you can join us

OK, so I am confused here.  What is the difference between a "Match Pistol" and a "SPP" pistol?  Does my IZH-46M count as a match pistol (open sights)?  Does my Beeman P3 with a 1X red dot scope count as a match pistol?  And does "Match Pistol" imply that the pistol is shot only with a one-hand grip, or is a 2-hand combat style grip OK?

I figured the GTA organizers created this category to pull the match AP guns separate from the sportsters like the P3.
I asked that question in reverse on the co2 pistol group.  Because, if I could shoot my match co2 pistol in their match, a match pistol would have an advantage over a sportster pistol.  They said yes, so I did.
So if anyone wants to shoot a sportster pistol in a match pistol match, that would be OK, but they would be at a disadvantage from the point of the mechanics of the gun.  

re - pistol
Your IZH-46 IS a match pistol.  SSP is simply the powerplant.

re - grip
Since it is a match pistol category, I would say we "try" to align to standard match rules, so initially I would say one-hand grip.  
BUT, to not exclude people, if you shoot 2-hand, then just state so in the post.  That way I will know why you beat me :-)

re - sights
I'm open on sights, as even at the national level, I've seen discussions on allowing red-dot sights.  
And as some of use (like me) get older, it gets harder to see the front sight and target.  I'm using open sights as long as I can, cuz I'm in denial of my bad vision.  :-)
