Wife and I practice for Steel Challenge 2x/week with our SA 9m, 1911s, but these last two days I've been shooting my 9mm P2000 V2 EDC getting ready for a tactical pistol class this Sunday. I probably ran through 700 rounds in the two days and, no surprise, no malfunctions. I've never had a malfunction with the HK. I bought two in the fall of 2015 as carry guns, qualified with them, but didn't get my license until August 2016 and I'm darn fortunate being in CA.
One gun is back at Lazy Wolf Guns getting tuned up, but there is nothing wrong with the stock V2: great carry gun. I used the steel challenge stages for practicing double taps and reloads so I think I'm ready for Sunday which should be a 600 round day.
My wife is a 1911 person: Dan Wesson, Kimber, EMP and the aforementioned SA 9mm 1911s, but she gave the HK a try. She ran through one of the toughest stages without a miss albeit a bit slower than with her 1911. Of course she had the benefit of my excellent free instruction. But she's sticking with 1911s fortunately; I do not want to buy any more guns right now
.
I love the trigger on my 1911, but for HD/SD the LEM is a great trigger. And you can run it pretty fast, but you can't wait until sights on target and then decide, "Gee, I better start moving the trigger". You can come back pretty aggressively well into the second stage as you're coming up on target, steady sight picture, break shot. If you have a mental lapse you better hold the sights on target for a few tenths unless you've got a gorilla grip. I know I'm not strong enough to snap-shoot accurately from a slack trigger.
I'm definitely going to take the HK to the next match just for fun.
