RUSHUSA is advertising a replacement grip for a 2011 for use with single stack magazines. Has everyone tried these?

I seem to remember a rule stating no full length metal dust covers for ESP (and now CCP). But I cant find it in the rulebook. Am I just missing it, or did they do away with it or was there never such a rule?

I think that the 10+1 vs 9+1 is a bigger deal in USPSA then in IDPA. The advantage is almost always in relationship to steel targets and USPSA uses a lot more of them. When CDP can regularly win HOA in State and Regional matches with 8+1(and a lot more recoil) that kind of kills the argument. Is more ammo better, almost always. Is that extra round going to keep you from winning, no. Lack of talent or practice will but not an extra round in the magazine.

Yank Price was the guy who thought the whole thing up and put it all together. He has since moved on to other things and is living in Florida. I designed all of the stages and set the par times. I had a couple of guys helping with the setup and teardown. We only had 3 bays so while they were shooting on one bay we were setting up on another bay after tearing down the previous stage. The Arizona Wrecking Crew was basically as described above

The bulk of the dot bounce does come from the heavy BCG slamming back and forth which is why its so hard to get rid of.

Its not the recoil that everyone is trying to eliminate. Its the dot bounce ....

less weight, we use a lot of titanium in our muzzle devices. Aluminum doesn't have a long service life around corrosive or high pressure gases.

Hard to outlive stupid ....

Which can get a better double action trigger?

I was referring to the ability to control group size, not prevent bullet tumbling. More about the whole gun stabilizing not the bullet. We regularly shoot our PCC's out to 100 plus yards and the long barrel/gun seems better at those extended distances. We have PCC's in our R&D shop with barrels ranging from 4" to 16" and we carefully record all test results. And of course its just opinion, but it is opinion based on daily real world experience. As far as proof, not sure what to offer. I did have a few PCC's at Area 1 for a fund raiser this weekend ranging from 4" to 16" that a couple of 100 people shot. If you would have come by I would have let you try them at 100 yards to see for yourself. Your results might have been different then mine.

Really light and short is cool for high round count close in stuff but it doesn't like to stabilize on the longer, tighter targets. The best balance is probably going to be around 12-13"

I have both, currently I prefer the 16" over then 10".

Or just ream the chamber.

I started out with Remington 1100, went to a Remington 3200, then a Winchester 101. Ran a K80 for a long time, loved it. Currently using a Browning XL Ultra, very happy with it. Whatever you end up with, pay someone who knows what they are doing to fit the stock, it makes a big difference.
