USPSA Grand Master – L3578

Brian Nelson has been shooting competitively since his first IDPA match in 2007 – since then, his life has revolved around performing and teaching marksmanship.

As a competitive shooter, Brian holds the classification of Grandmaster in USPSA’s Limited, Carry Optics, Production, and PCC divisions, and has represented the United States on World Championship teams in IPSC Rifle and Shotgun shooting. He is currently a member of the Taran Tactical Innovations Pro Team along with some of the top shooters in the world.

“The 1911/2011 pistol dominates the competitive shooting world because, in the arena of performance shooting, that combination of grip shape/angle/trigger makes performance shooting as intuitive as possible. I use the M1811 grip module anywhere a 2011 is not allowed or practical,  because the 1811 is the only solution that makes the grip on a striker-fired handgun correct.  The 1811 module dramatically increases the shootability of a standard P320, more so than any other grip module – it’s like turning it into a completely different gun. On a P320 with good sights, you are getting 90% of 2011 performance with 1/3rd of the maintenance and 1/4th of the cost. I’ve personally used an 1811-equipped P320 to take a few titles this year with the same pistol I use for CCW and military class demonstrations”.

Known as “Carde B”, Josh is an active duty Marine stationed in Quantico, Virginia.  His first experience in competition was in 2019 where he participated in the Marine Corps Marksmanship Competition in Okinawa, Japan. He was selected that same year as a Summer Augment for the Marine Corps Shooting Team.

Primarily shooting 3Gun for 3 months before returning to the fleet. Due to obligations to the Marine Corps, it took 2 years until he was able to start competing again, shooting his first USPSA match in 2021. He received orders to the Marine Corps Shooting Team and focused primarily in the Carry Optics division, earning the classification of Grand Master in just 5 months.

“I chose to run the 1811 grip module for the first time at the 2023 Carry Optics Nationals. I’ve always preferred the “1911” angle and the grip provided an intuitive shooting experience. It increased the shootability of the P320 than any of the modules that I’ve used before. I use an M18 at work and its hard not being allowed to slap the module on, knowing full well that I would have an increase in performance.”

"The M1811 grip module sits in the hand better than any other P320 option out there. The module is much less blocky than any of the OEM or other aftermarket options out there, and gives your P320 that single-stack 1911 feel. For me, with the M1811 module installed, the gun points and tracks much better than any OEM option.

Brouwer LLC listens to their customers, and I’m excited to see that shooters now have many choices with grip color, texture options, and magwells."

"I chose to run the 1811 grip module because I wanted to see what else was out there coming from the Sig Sauer TXG grip. Immediately in dryfire I noticed how the presentation and index was very similar to my 2011’s. In live fire I noticed a more consistent and repeatable return to zero due to the 1811’s ergonomics and the way it fit in my hand. While being significantly lighter than a TXG, the gun behavior in recoil is more predictable thus allowing me to shoot more aggressively."

Keith Larkin is an active duty Navy Corpsman that begun shooting in late 2022. He first started competing in USPSA after learning about the US Navy Action Shooting Team’s requirements for joining.

3 weeks later Keith then won his 2nd ever match earning the 4th ever Gold Pistol Excellence in Competition badge awarded in naval history. 2 months later he earned the Navy Action Shooting team jersey and continues to improve in performance.

"After trying just about every grip module available for the P320, I found the M1811 offers the best grip angle, ergonomics and function. The grip angle not only allows for a natural presentation of the sights, but it aids in the return to zero during recoil. The M1811 is also the perfect thickness between a 1911 and 2011, not too wide or too slim. The dimensions of the M1811 allow it to fit amazingly into the hand with access to all of the controls. I also felt the higher beavertail and fencing around the slide lock/release allowed me to get a very high grip on the gun, leading to faster follow up shots and accuracy."
