I forgot to mention that both of those targets have 7 rounds in them. A full mag + 1.

I am impressed. The shots that I took looked like the second sheet but i was slow firing. For me it was all due to the trigger which Ruger says 8lbs and his gun felt like more. I prefer 5lbs for my DA and 3lbs for SA.

With practice I'm sure I could do better. I only put about 250 rounds through that gun so far.

The lack of quality, high contracts sights is more of a hindrance to rapid shooting than the trigger. Yes, I do prefer my triggers to be lighter, but for a pocket gun I think it is a good compromise. As a backup gun or a "I can't carry anything larger than this" it is a good option. If you can conceal a larger gun I highly recommend it.
