Been right there with ya, Websniper. I have had 8 to 9 on the 10 scale for lower back pain on one side. Did the ortho visit, they did the steroid and nerve med scripts. It didn’t seem to help this time. I’ve just been taking it easy and lowered the height of the seat in my work van….it’s up there!!!! Last time, borrowed an inversion table- that cleared it up quickly. Finally bought one- should be here today.

Yeah, I did this route for neck, upper back issues that were causing the same thing down my arm a couple of years ago. That, PT, and changing my desk situation helped . I've had lower back issues for going on 20 years now, but this time has really handed it to me.
Hopefully this works. Dr said she has had varying results on the shots directly in the back, and doesn't like to go that route if she can avoid it. I didn't press for an MRI up front this time, like I did with my neck, upper back, since I've had some of this before. If the pain keeps up though that will be what I press to do next, to really see what's going on. I've got good insurance and already met the HSA deduct and beyond with my wife's conditions.
Hopefully the inversion table continues to work well for you. Not sure if hanging with my head below the rest of my body would be a good thing on my side. Tends to make me nauseous pretty quickly.
Similar results when I did the local gun club Wednesday Pistol shoot
They do IDPA/USPSA style and I had never been timed - plus the Routine ( shoot 3 - change mag - shoot 3 ) -
I was 15ᵗʰ runner up ... ( Last )
But you tried, and that's better than most would do.
You were 15th but you weren’t last. You placed ahead of all the “capable” shooters (like me) that didn’t show up and stayed on their couch.
Just picked mine up.
Made in Czech Republic. Sights seem to be 3-dot NS with a white outline around the front one. I'll have to get them to a dark place to confirm they are night sights but they appear to be.
Edit:
I Czech'd, it does have night sights f/r.

Looks like they are, since they light up when I walk into a dark room with the gun.
Frame says made in Czech Republic molded into the side of the dust cover. Metal plate on the bottom of the dust cover with the serial# says KC.
Evening all!
Got my 97 over to the Wizard today but will not get to pick it up until next week. The Wizard and WT will test fire it on Monday for the first range report but from what Losey tells me I accomplished my goal which was to leave DA close to stock trigger pull but move the trigger back. He installed CGW reach reduction kit with the ’flat’ trigger and hammer kit with a race hammer. A little wizard magic and the SA looks to be sweet. Here is the “spreadsheet” @mcapo asked for.

Anybody looking for a 1911 to build the Springer in the classies looks to be a fair deal — $650

WTS: - SPRINGFIELD ARMORY 1911-A1 SS 45 ACP
FOR SALE: Excellent condition Springfield Armory Combat Blackened Stainless Steel in 45 ACP. Comes with Springfield Armory carrying case, 1 magazine, 1 bore brush, 1 holster, 1 mag holder, 1 owners manual. It is my understanding that SA did not make many of these and I will say I do not see them...
I think it will get better as I get used to it. I want to try several guns to see what I shoot best at this event .
Bruce's 97 turned out great. I should clarify that the trigger measurement with the hammer down was taken from a line from the inside front of the trigger guard back to the front bottom edge of the trigger. The reset was measured from the lower front edge of the trigger back to the frame. I use digital calipers and my micrometer like bad eyeballs so lets say + or - .015
I think it will get better as I get used to it. I want to try several guns to see what I shoot best at this event . I set all my triggers to 3 lbs so I can shoot in the stock division with no visible mods or red dots.
Does there seem to be a caliber preference or just whatever you shoot best?
What you shoot best, more or less. They have categories for .40, .45 as well as 9mm and even rimfire.
Evening all. Quite a day. Glad to be home and turkey'ed. Lots more to do, Magpie's 7th birthday Saturday!
Time for a brown liquid relaxer potion.
Edit: and an ice cream sammich.
