I also attended the match. I totally agree with Postban that the Nowlin was heads and shoulders above the other guns. I rank the guns as follows:
1) Nowlin. Every bit as good as my Wilson Protector or CQB Compact.
2) Springfield Professional. Fit, finish and trigger were excellent.
3) Kimber Super Match. Tough for me to rank a Kimber Super Match 3rd, but the other two were just better.
4) Caspian. Nice gun, just needed to have a couple of the kinks worked out of it. It lacked an ambi safety and that make it tough for us lefties.
5) Springfield. Also missing an ambi safety.
It should be noted that this was a replacement gun for the STI that became inoperable half way through the match.
Overall this was a fun event that should be explored by other clubs. It gave all the shooters a chance to try various guns under match conditions.
