I am not new to guns (have a large collection), but am new to competition shooting. I am looking for help in deciding what gun to buy. For IPSC limited, or Steel Challenge, it would appear to me that a longer barrel/slide would be better for accuracy and speed to follow on shots. It would also make higher power factor with less recoil due to the increased muzzle velocity. Yet very few shooters use the longer barrel guns. Anyone know why not? What am I missing?
I noticed Jessie Abbate won the Female World title in Limited at the World Speed Shooting Championships Steel Challenge 2007 with a Glock 24 (6 inch barrel). Does she know something others don't, or is this just an anomoly?
