Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. Dot flickering = low battery voltage = near dead battery Noticeable decrease in dot intensity = battery on the way out = change out to new battery. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Hey, we’re gun guys - how can you hate CZs or Glocks? My perspective: In USPSA, Steel framed production guns, Stock 2s, Tanfos, CZs, are a very short step from a 9mm Limited SV/STI. The triggers and ergos are great, but you pay substantially (not compared to your average open gun, but for your average Production setup) for that. Guys are paying big money for those ‘production’ platforms. The changes to D4 are going to make the plastic framed guns, and I think Glock as much as any, more competitive and economical. Allowing mods to grips and triggers are a big deal with the Glock platform. It’ll be interesting to see how that plays out this season. Let the games begin (well in May anyway).

  3. This was my first nationals (Open) but I've been shooting USPSA for a long time. This match deserved the National Championship moniker. The disaster factor was high on many stages. There wasn't a stage where you could let your guard down. You paid for every mistake. The stages tested all requisite skill sets. Everyone I talked to that shot previous nationals said it was the toughest in recent years. Look at the match percentages at the top of Open. There are some great shooters in the mid to low 80% range. The match staff was great and showed a lot of poise in some blistering weather Friday. Plenty of water, lots of portajons, and a great facility with a practice area so you could warm up prior to the festivities (I wish that was available at every match). Leaving everything else aside, the members of USPSA should be proud of the nationals this year and the people who produced this event. To those people I say: Thank You.

    Squad matrix

    You da man - Thx!
  5. I can't read the squad matrix on USPSA website. Any help?

  7. I just set up my belt with TMMS system and I really like it. I set my Quadloads like CJW. I even set up a couple of AP Custom 4x4s in the event I have to go prone with the shotgun and the possibility I might have to load in that position. I'd just grab a handful and weak hand load. I set up my holster also - I really like being able to remove it and pistol on the stages where I won't need them. You can't beat the flexibility.
  8. For USPSA: I started with an 8, went to a 12, went back to an 8, now shoot a 6.
  9. Yes, it's true that all of the above is on the cutting edge of technology and yes you can make a successful argument for weapons mounted illumination devices but the possibility of a weapons mounted light on a civilian CCW concealed carry weapon is slim at best. Switch to LE Officers, the chances are even slimmer. We are issued lights and they are not mounted on the weapon and when deployed have to be installed on the weapon (the light is carried in a pouch on the duty belt). Fact is CCW holders do not utilize the aforementioned technology in significant numbers. Just because S&W mounts a reflex optic on an M&P pistol does not mean it should be a legal option for IDPA. The overwhelming majority carry pistols with iron sights of varying designs and manufacturers. Why not allow these more 'modern' devices a place in IDPA? They would be competing only against one another.
  10. IDPA's core value: defensive pistol discipline... I've talked to several armed professionals that say not so much, And... No gun mounted lights, no lasers, no slide mounted red dots: These technologies are the future of defensive pistol discipline and you can't argue that these technologies are even cutting edge as they've all been around for some time. Technology marches on and interested spectators and historians know that the victors of wars (and by extention, self-defense encounters) possess the best technology.

    Gan's ?

    My last communication with him was Friday and all was well. I sent him an email yesterday and haven't received a response.

    Gan's ?

    I sent him an email yesterday to let him know I was ready to send him my parts. Too bad if it's true, but lucky for me on the other hand.
