Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Keith Many of the guys I know abandoned the arvid grind years ago, the jam you describe is consistent with the lack of support & guidance for the shell as it chambers that occurs when you remove material from the carrier. Sounds like your gun has some other issues as well, you need to hang out with the right pumpers to get yourself sorted N
  2. Been using my M2 since 2007 & always followed kurts advice on lube as detailed above, I got the grease & FP10 he reccommends shipped here from the USA & my gun runs sweet & always has. However many of my fellow countrymen have had various problems & some have since switched to the Beretta 1301 instead. I cant help thinking that if they had followed the advice kurt has given above, they may have saved themselves the cost of a gun. N
  3. Hi Stuart I have most of Basshams books & CD's including the Mental Management System & the coaching system CD's as well & Im in the UK, postage is not that slow, I recently bought the new book written by Troy his son called Attainment which is also good, I have Saul Kirsch's books & DVD too, Steve Andersons book is also excellent & perhaps easier to grasp the principles being discussed & includes a list of the most common mistakes to avoid. If you attend any of the four4islands matches in the UK I would be happy to let you take a look at what I have, before deciding for yourself. N
  4. At today exchange rate the €350 entry fee comes out at around $452 N
  5. In the UK a growing number of shotgunners, clubs & range owners have grown tired of all the IPSC rules & we now have an organisation that only started this year who are working with the clubs to hold a series of new shotgun matches, if IPSC & also our UKPSA continue as they are doing it is sure to swell the ranks of this new series. Next year they already have a growing calendar. They have a website here.. http://four4islands.org/ N
  6. Terni 2003, was the year of enlightenment hope your well amigo. I tend to drop the muzzle down slightly in order to shorten the distance from my belt to the port for the first shell, but still keep the gun shouldered to save time, then as I load the last rounds im raising the gun up to its firing position, it works the same if your loading 8 or 4 & it works just as good when moving.
  7. Hey Amigo, congrats on your Ft Benning win. :-)

    See you in Hungary for a few beers.

  8. Hey Traps I had the modified (Arvid Grind) carrier in my own gun & Jon H also, we spoke with Paolo & Silvia while at ESC09 in Cz & they dont use it on their team, both Jon & I have had serious shell feeding issues that have "gone away" since changing out the modified carriers. I cant recomend that its worth the effort at this time & as yet I have not missed it. See ya soon hopefully Amigo. N
  9. On the Agenda for the IPSC general Assembly being held on September 11 2010 in Serbia. 16. Motion 23) That the 2012 Shotgun World Shoot be hosted in the Region of Hungary. Moved Seconded Carried___ Denied___ Shotgun World Shoot ! Yeah Baby, Its all good.... N
  10. Sako/Anyone Do you know what make of pump gun Roger was using ? I didn't see him at ESC09 in the CZ Republic & was just curious. N
  11. Trapr. Perhaps this discussion should be split off as I dont wish to disrupt the pan am thread, sorry Linda. The issue of FFC at the Pan Am is not what im concerned about, clearly the ammo is available for all to purchase on site, so its fair. Im more concerned about some possible future shotgun world shoot say, that might be held outside the USA or in a country where FFC was unavailable. Clearly those who could purchase it before they leave home would have an advantage over those in regions where it was not available. I also dont like the fact that it makes the game easier to shoot, what happened to learning your pattern inside 30yds. N
