Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. I ran a Carlson's Light Mod, with the exception of stage 1 where I put my Mod choke in, I didn't have any trouble with any of the targets. Everything came off the stands, nobody spun, texas star went down like normal. Used #6 3" phesant loads for the spinner and turned in 4 shots. I think they're will still be targets that spin for some shooters even with small bases. Solid hits will take them down. Overall it was a great match, I did not shoot the '10 or '11, but I participated as an RO the 4 previous years, and this one was smooth and enjoyable. I'm looking forward to next years match!

  2. I believe the fram is already cut for a ramped barrel. What about the mags? Do they need a spacer? or will they run as-is?
  3. What is required to convert an STI Edge in 10mm over to a 40 S&W limited class gun? I know I'll have to get a new barrel, but will I have to swap ejectors, extractors, magazines? I have the oportunity to pick one up locally for a really good price, its coming with 5 mags, a holster and 700 rounds. If it will be just a barrel swap I will probably jump on it, but if it gets more involved than that I will probably just troll for a used setup. Thanks, Polytech
  4. I skipped the endine buffer after the reviews I read of them busting. After all they're just a gas shock in AR-buffer form and will eventually fail. Instead I went with an adjustable gas block and the "blue-collar LMOS" (commercial carrier and empty buffer) and my gun doesn't move off target on 200 yard plates. I'm running an AR-stoner 18" barrel with a Tri-Delta comp and PRI adjustable low profile gas block with a ctr stock. PT
  5. This is indeed the case. However, if you want to put a rail segment on the bottom up front, you will not clear the gas block due to the backing piece you screw into to secure the rail. You can however cut that and clear a mid length just fine. Also, even when you get it on the clearance between the protuberance that the gas adjustment screw is set in and the wall of the tube is VERY minimal. You can deflect the tube enough to make contact with it. I've got rail sections at 3 & 9 by my gas block, they fit without touching when the tube is installed. Its pretty tight, but they fit. There is some contact on the adjustment side when rotating the tube to take it off, but that doesn't bug me too much. I'm going to try and use the rail segments as poor-man's K9 barricade supports, we'll see how that works out. PT
  6. wouldn't the magazine springs have more to do with the bolt catch engaging? That is, if the bolt catch is of the proper dimensions and not damaged at all? The mag spring/ follwer is what pushes the bolt catch up correct? PT
  7. the PRI adjustable low profile (.750") gas block will fit under a troy trx 13" on a mid-lenght AR-stoner 18" barrel without modification. You will have to drill a hole to adjust the gas, or just take off the tube (what I do). PT
  8. PRI low pro adjustable will fit under the TRX, there is no room for any sort of locking nut for the adjustment. I just staked/peened my adjustment screw so it won't move. I was initially going to us a longer screw and small nut to lock in the adjustment, but it was too much to fit under the TRX.
  9. I'd call Larue, they'll be able to get you set up with the propper mount that will duplicate the position of the aimpoint in the larue mount. PT
  10. I'll be there in a [insert RO shirt color]shirt running shooters! Mr. Payne, I expect some lawn-chair space for post match BSing at the motorhome wouldn't be right to be at a 3-gun match and not hang with the MN folk! PT
  11. Disclaimer: opinions of an RO on stage 3....... The no-shoots weren't what slowed us down, it was the taping of the targets. We could get most of the squad's to hustle down and start taping, but everybody would just stroll back. warning, extremely personal opinion ahead!..... Also all of the air gunning after the walk-thru, between shooters consumed a lot of time, along with shooters slowly collecting up their gear after shooting. Let me put it this way, alot of the time we were behind could be attributed to shooters not following instructions promptly. But this is just the opinion of one RO on one stage. BUT the vast majority of shooters did well and hustled We were set up for failure (as far as time goes) with the large amount of shooters and all of the high round count/ technical stages, unfortunately the only way to remidy this would be to limit the ammount of shooters and nobody wants to turn people away.

  12. The Minnesota crew is certainly looking forward to seeing you in the red shirts next year! I'm half tempted to shoot the dang match so I can post some decent scores. Its tough to shoot well after a full day of running back and forth with 80-some shooters, then gearing up and trying to get stage or two in before dark it does not make for good scores. If I don't RO next year I expect a slot on the MN squad PTK
  13. For all of the complaining about the steel, 99% of the people who spun steel on my stage put bad shots on them, simple as that. If shot size and choke was a problem all of the people that ran the 590's or the other "defensive" shotguns would have spun all of their steel. And for those shooters who brought all of their powder-puff loads because there was no power factor, well that was the gamble for gaming it. When its all said and done, I had a lot of pleasant shooters come through my stage and a lot of them who worked real hard to score and re-set and kept up the hustle for their whole squad. And the appriciative thanks that we got at the end of a few squads goes a long way to bring us back the next year.
  14. Is anyone making one of those side-ways C-more frame mount for the glocks? I'd like to hop back and forth from limited to open so I'd like to keep the dot as close to the slide as possible. Polytech
