As promised I've attached photos of my new to me Les Baer Monolith Comanche Heavy. I've also attached a photo of my first target. I shot about 100 rounds of mixed ammo including Wolf, Critical, Aquila and Winchester white box. The Baer ate everything put into it without a hiccup. It shoots similar to my Kimber CDP but better. There is practically zero muzzle bounce and very little recoil making target acquisition very easy without much in the way of recovery time. It feels good in the hand and comes up onto to target very nicely. It's easy to reload and to handle. The trigger is right on for me and both safeties function with no noticeable effort. The only thing which will need some attention are the sights. It is equipped wit night sights but in my opinion they're weak. I need a more noticeable front sight as I found it difficult to see the front sight. I haven't decided what corrective measure to take and am looking for suggestions. I shoot at three different distances 7, 20 and 25 yards. I was pleasantly surprised at the results especially at my results at the 25 yard line. Please keep in mind I'm not an expert shooter, I'm just a 62 year old who shakes a little and mainly shoot M1 Garand rifles. I was happy enough with the results that next trip to the range I plan to shoot at the 50 yard line, I probably won't be posting those results! Any way here are the photos, comments and suggestions please.
