You would be more than welcome to try it. I won't be there this coming Monday, but I'll be attending the IDPA clinic there on Tuesday. Wifey says the budget during deer season will require me to pick one or the other next week.

Tom got me excited about the games and drills that are ran and I see that being totally worth the experience. The only hiccup I'm having is finding the holster that's right. I'm about 5'9" and 160 so I need to start with a low profile one. I've heard others mention Crossbreed but I'm the kinda person that I want to try before I buy. I know for sure I need to adapt my wardrobe a bit because all my clothes are regular fit and if I reach up it's possible to expose.
Your model 92 will fit just fine in my crossbreed , your welcome to try it out for size if you go to one of the Monday night IDPA shoots at the Arms Room. I'm a lefty, but it will give you an idea of what they feel like.

I'm easy to spot at those shoots, I'm the short fat guy shooting a stainless Beretta from a left handed IWB holster.

I carry a Beretta 96 for EDC in a crossbreed supertuck. I love the Beretta and the Supertuck!

Welcome to the forum, Tom is a good guy that I have met several times during IDPA shoots at the Arms room and at Bestshot. He's an excellent shooter with great fundamentals, I strive to reach his level one day.
