You need to determine what matches you are going to shoot first, the biggest and most common mistake is a newbie shooter buying a cool sounding gun then trying to find a match to shoot it in. This is plain dumb, go to clubs and see what matches you think you may like and see what the top shooters are using. No point buying a single action revolver for a match you need 10 shot strings in with a reload in the middle. Today I saw a newbie shooter rock up with a model 17 glock...he had to walk down to 5 yard line to hit the target as it didn't come with adjustable sights.

Glocks should be at least windage adjustable?
