RUSHARP2

One of the few things I miss about living in Atlanta is Chris and CPWSA. He was 30 minutes from my house, and we shot the same monthly matches. Not only does he have a darn good business, he is one heck of a shooter, and most of all he is one of the nicest guys you could meet. I think all my USPSA guns, and my ARs came either from or through Chris. I wish more people/businesses were like Chris. Matt

amen. I started the process to build a 300 blackout last week, got the lower before it all went crazy. still searching the BCG under $300.

my buddy bought a 700 in 308 from Dicks last week(the ADL package with decent little 3x9), and had them bore sight it. Well when we pull the caps off the turrets, the top is all jacked up and wont turn. So we decided to take the whole rig back, as it wasn't bore sight either. We get there and the manager comes up to talk to us. My buddy says he just wants the scope replaced. To which the manager responds that they cant exchange part of a firearm. I asked what he meant and he said that the scope was part of the firearm and because of form 4473 they can not exchange the scope. At that point I tried to explain that the scope has nothing to due with form 4473 or they would have to do one on every scope. He didnt get it. He also quoted what I can only believe as Dick's policy as federal law more than once.

I would like to know as well... Or better yet how to get the logo to use on a shirt, so I can add other logos as well. I contacted Tanfoglio but they just sent a patch.

I was at an archery shop yesterday buying my first bow in a really long time, and it was all that they were talking about. I wish NBC had better coverage or move information as to when certain events would be on. For instance... I watched womens basketball yesterday, I think Turkey vs. Angola rather than the USA archery match. It would seem to me that NBC would have coverage of all USA events.

I used the match in limited without an issue. Your 45 might be at a small disadvantage due to caliber, but use it in l-10. Since I started in production, the magwell was not that important anyway. I happen to run a real nice match 9mm in 3 gun and dont have any issue. matt

I am not sure how old he is, but there is young guy in Georgia that passed the exam and runs shooters. Pretty sure he is the youngest ever. Since I moved to Texas, I was at a club match where the MD/RM stated the range would not allow an "minor" to be a RO running shooters.

You loading your own ammo? Some like a little longer oal. I load mine to about 1.18. What exactly is the issue, btw? Stovepipes?

I went with 40. Already loaded for limited, so no need to change reloading set up. Works great in my Trojan.

Amen.. Havent had a toy fund since getting married. Not the wife's fault, timing just a coincedence I hope. Hope your fund gets replenished quickly.

Did you think about contacting one of the builders via PM and see if they could help you out. maybe they would be willing to talk about what they do, since it is not feasible for you to get the gun to them. Never know. I would gladly take pictures of mine. I have work done to the lifter, bolt lightened, modified for ghost load. All by C-Rums. Then Trapr (redneck Tactical) opened the loading port, smoothed everything out and added a sight on the vent rib for slugs. I had the work done with C-Rums about 6 months after getting the gun, and the work with Trapr about a year after. I needed to be a better shooter in order for those mods to make a difference. Still not all that good, but better. Matt

Problem iwith texas is the hot part. It was 104 today. Dont get me wrong, I love living in Texas. I am going to mention Atlanta, GA. Three really active outdoor clubs around Atlanta, then a couple more indoor clubs that shoot weekly. Then there a some good clubs that are outside the greater Atlanta area. You can pretty much shoot year round and there are a bunch of great shooters. Big enough population to support another practice.

Its weird but there is a site call the naked whiz that has a ton of info on ceramic cookers including recipes and charcoal review. You can google naked whiz charcoal review and you will find it. I use the chimney when i am going for a high temp cook. For long low cooks, i go with the little fire starter cubes or paper dipped in veggie oil wrapped tightly.

I've had my egg for about 6 years now. You can find the kamado style cookers everywhere, the local lowes had one the other day. I added a pit minder for long overnight cooks start a brisket or shoulder and let it go. Had a 12lb shoulder cook for 24 hours with no issue. Lump burns for hours and will add flavor. It also does great on steaks or burgers as I can get the egg up to 700 or so and get a great sear then drop the temp to 350-400 and finish it off. I have done veggie kabobs and they turned out as expected. There is a ton of info in different places for how to cook on the egg(or similar style cookers) I am a huge fan.

They are accepting pre orders. No date has been mentioned regarding a ship date. I am waiting to here as I may let me 1x4 model go to pick the 1x6 up, but would like to know a date.

There was a nice limited for sale with mags in the classifieds. If you are thinking about a new gun. Maybe use the Match, just get a 40 top end. I was looking at doing that for 3 gun, in reverse(have a 40 needed a 9). Turned out to be about the same cost wise to buy a used Match. Also what about limited minor? New mags are getting 22-23. Who am I to talk, I have a Match in 9 & 40, then a Limited in 40. Matt

My local Dicks Sporting Goods will sometimes offer a discount if you buy a whole case. I think the last time I bought a case they took somewhere around 10% off, but it may have been more like 20%. So I paid somewhere under $7 per box then got the $2 off as well. I figure asking for more off never hurt. Plan to hit Dicks this week to find out. Matt

Swfa.. I have the 1x4 hd and it is great for the price point. I am not that good, dont travel to far for matches and couldnt see spending 2k on a scope. I got mine in a deal with a mount, throw lever and the scope for only the cost of the scope. I am really considering going to the 1x6, but what i got seems to do just fine. Matt

Shoot all 9 plus chrono in a half day. Last year it was pretty nice. Solid quick stages with small squads. I am pretty bummed that i am going to have to miss this years match, Peter and the gang put together a good match.

40(major) for me. Didnt want to load for two different calibers.

I am not sure about the post screwing it up, but if it throws your line of sight, then there is something to it. What did you zero it at? Put it in the larue, and re zero. If you were closer, l would sit at the range with you to figure it out. Ni may be bored enough to do it any way..

Russ, Its Matt form the BOTW monthly matches.... Call swfa about that scope. Maybe the guy you bought it from too, see if he had issues and passed a lemon on to you. I zeroed my swfa and have not had an issue. Made a ton of difference in th long range and even the mid range stuff for me. There is generally nothing wrong with the new swfa 1x4 hd. Yours is the first one that i have heard of that has issues from those that I know that has anyissue. I would think swfa would make it right. If you dont stick with it, look at the mtac... Lost of folk talking about it and value at its price point. Matt

I bought one of Mark's set up and with a few nights practice(3), I am in the 6 second range for 8, which is a little over half the time of my strong hand reloads. I am really impressed with the GTO... heading to the practice range tomorrow to go through a box of shells. Matt

There was one group, wearing grey shirts that said "TEAM GILL"; I think they might have actually been a family. I think they were all using the same shotgun - one would come off the stage, the next (usually the hole shooter) would grab the shotgun and an RO, go over to the side berm, fill the tube, and put the gun back in the rack. Their equipment prep must get intense. And I really want to know what type of shotgun they were using, if they were indeed all using the same gun, that could stand that much shooting in one weekend - and what lube, too! Team Gill Rocked. Father and 3 sons. One of the sons was shooting single stack (Not WWII). Got lots or mag change practice on the plane stage. They had two shotguns.. and I think two rifles.. My stage was rifle/shotgun so I saw it first hand, and had to make sure they were spaced correctly in the shooting order.

I searched for posts by 00bullitt(Todd), he is/was a huge fan of the SX3. I hope this helps a little. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=87438&st=0&p=1007436&hl=fn&fromsearch=1entry1007436 http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=85501&hl=fn&st=0
