Here's mine (also posted in the "Daily Carry" thread). Love the look of this combo, but only the pistol leaves the house:

I just finished setting up my Springfield Armory Trophy Match for Limited 10 in USPSA. Surprisingly, the big honkin magwell is very lightweight and the gun is under the max weight for IDPA by over half an ounce. I'm not sure she'll fit in the IDPA box though. :evil2:
Tomorrow she gets a work out at the range to see if any tweaks need to be made but I think she's ready to rock.
