  1. I guess it's different for everyone. For me I was 15% faster first time shooting a dot. With the same pistol.
  2. I'm new at this game also. I'm learning quick that you need A's. Lots of them. Trying to move with the PCC is going to take some mental work. Accesing the stages also can be altered compared to pistol. Plus I'm a senior ;-)
  3. I'm new to IDPA... I shot my 1st match in 2003. Maybe I'll catch on. HaHa....I've seen a few rule changes. They might address this in the future. Or not....I'm good either way.
  4. I ran the IDPA match alone at times. Kept it going...even recruited new members. The current match director was one of my students. The thanks I got was underwhelming.... its a stupid rule. They lost a hard working guy.
  5. They enforce the 1 match rule where I live. Was told I wasn't welcome back unless I join IDPA.... The friendly folks hang out in USPSA.
  6. I've always thought 10 rounds in any widebody pistol was dumb. Yes....dumb now throw in an optic with a full mag. I'd call it fun! if you wanna do reloads shoot single stack. You know...the one with the narrow magwell. Don't be skeer'd. HaHa....
  7. I run the Hyperfire Eclipse 24S for me it's a winner only got about 1k rounds on it so far. It's never skipped a beat. Nice pull.
  8. Hiperfire Eclipse.... love it!!!! highly recommend
  9. I just got a PSA .... Glock style. Put a Hyperfire 24C in....couldn't be happier. almost went with the CMC... glad I didn't.
  10. You'll have plenty of time. Loctite doesn't harden quickly.
  11. Thanks for the template.
  12. If I wasn't concerned about the rules I would've never asked about the stage. I had 3 brand new RO's that couldn't say 100% as to it legality. Along with several old ones. We run the range Cold and by the rule book. It seems you're taking this way beyond the original question. I'm now sorry I asked. Thanks to the ones that did help by posting the rules that applied.
  13. I'll pass along the information to our match director. He checks out every stage and makes changes as necessary during walk through. Come shoot with us....I think you'll have an enjoyable time.
  14. Great rule....if you've got the match stages pre-designed. The only one that's on paper at ours is the Classifier It takes manpower to make things happen. We're short on workers. ---- The stage wasn't designed any differently for me than any other person. As for the use of props. I've shot many matches with a multitude of them. I can tell you the most challenging stage I've ever shot had several. I'm glad! To this day I still talk about it. El Presidente isn't for all of us ?
  15. It was just our local club match. We setup morning of. Only Verbal description during walk thru was given. I do need to find a course design program. would help in posting and asking questions.
  16. That's what I was thinking. I can see a few tricks to be added to make it more challenging. I like run and gun, the hidden target, star, polish plate rack but something different alway appeals to me. I'm seeing a rope, a briefcase and a backpack coming into play very soon. Solving the stage can in fact be the challenge. Doing it accurately and quickly the reward.
  17. Seems if I use props their's a gray area that fits my needs....I think. Question: if the stage calls for carrying a briefcase in your strong hand could the round count be over 6 shots?
  18. Hmm... I've got plenty of doors at the range. And I've got some rope. You've got me think'n.
  19. I do enjoy making one think "out of the box" The hidden target only goes so far ;-)
  20. I kind'a got the idea from shooting multi-gun. Weak side rifle has bit me more than once. Plus I've loaded off a table, out of a drawer, a briefcase, backpack, Etc. never empty, holstered weak hand only with a pistol. I like spicing the game up. Makes it more of a challenge. I can't remember the last time I've needed my elbow pads on a stage. Seems the game has dwindled in some respects. Still fun tho!
  21. A couple of new RO's said you couldn't make the shooter swap hands but since it was all weak they weren't sure. I'll go with the flow and not use the scenario anymore.
  22. Gotcha....on the medium. Trust me it was nothing like IDPA.... It was a great slow walk straight line field course. Of course only a revolver shooter could appreciate that ... HaHa Btw....I left off the part where I have a handicap. My right (strong hand) doesn't work that well due to a spinal cord injury. But I deal with it. It let me see how others would deal with a surprise in life. I shot 3rd overall on the stage 73% An A limited won A Master open 2nd. I'm usually near the bottom. Thanks for cueing me in on the rules. I mostly shoot for fun now. Let's say it played out well.
