  1. Not a good idea. Atlas hand fits slides to frames.
  2. https://atlasgunworks.com/product-details?id=91998790
  3. I have one Atlas DLC mag and this mirrors my experience. I just wanted a black big stick
  4. Atlas, but Im a bit biased you could say. I really like my Artemis, but Im working on an Athena right now thats a bit different than the normal Athena.
  5. If they are hell bent on making this division separate from CO I just wish they would drop the "Limited" name from the division. Call it Tac Optics or Sport Optics, Action Optics or anything else. IMO putting "Limited" in the name ties it too much into the current Limited division.
  6. Not data per say, but a good read. http://preparedgunowners.com/2016/07/14/why-high-powered-5-56-nato-223-ar-15-ammo-is-safer-for-home-defense-fbi-overpenetration-testing/
  7. If you do a little digging around on the net you'll see that pin hole damage to 9mm AR lowers was a thing way before HF triggers. Its the bolt speed whacking the hammer that in turn translates to extra force on the pins.
  8. I put a small carabiner on my flag and have a steel ring on my belt about where a holster would be.
  9. It can get kind of loud depending on the room you are in, but I kinda like being able to hear the noises. Ive used the machine long enough to know what it sounds like when everything is working and can pick up on stuff going/gone wrong by the noise the machine is making.
  10. Ive used two different manufactures of bolts and 3-4 of pins and springs in my PCC guns, never had this happen. I'd send the company an email.
  11. @NickBlasta I get that, but how to get past the fact its stated that hovering over the grip is legal when its not specified? Or that DNROI said a PCC shooter could have been touching the gun when I asked if that was OK when hand position was not specified?
  12. As I said before I posted that document just to show that hand/arm placement is not a WSB requirement. If its not specified and there is no default, then yes do what you want within the rules. For handgun that means whatever you want as long as you are not touching the handgun or ammo source. For PCC that means do what ever you want as long as you are not touching the ammo source.
  13. Yeah, its reason enough. It was just a curiosity thing and if it does reduce effort its something that could help sway me into getting one.
  14. I do use case lube, but I have seen at least one review stating lower handle effort. I was just looking for some more input on that.
  15. Im mildy interested in a roll sizer, but I have a question. How much, if any does running roll sized brass through a manual machine (like a Dillon 650) reduce handle effort using a Dillon or Lee sizing die?
  16. While I almost agree with you, 8.2.3(if thats what you are talking about) can not apply to PCC. If you think about it. Table starts are the only(that I can think of) time that a PCC shooters is not touching the firearm in the stand by-to-beep time.
  17. I would think so. Just like a lot of handguns, a lot of PCC guns wont allow the safety to be applied when in the unloaded hammer down position.
  18. I dont think so, that document mentions only handguns where there is a rule in place to prevent touching(stand by-beep). No such rule is in place for rifles. I only used that document to highlight the fact that hand position is not required in the WSB.
  19. "Since the rule change, I have seen many WSBs that specify where the handgun competitors are standing and where their feet are, but the hand position is missing. If you don’t specify a handgun start position, savvy competitors who know the rules can have their hands hovering right above the grip of their pistol. This is now legal, providing they are not touching their handgun or magazine/speed loader, but it usually takes stage designers and MDs by surprise because that is not what they intended." source-https://nroi.org/stage-design/to-wsb-or-not-to-wsb/
