Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. No issues with any I've used including PD. Try moving to a higher locking piece. What are you using now?
  2. For me, snug, then a little additional until the handguard mounting holes line up correctly.
  3. Remove the C clip from inside the receiver, push the pivot pin to the outside, and the ejector will come out. There is a spring in the rear to be aware of, but it wasn't too eager to fall out so I've always left it in while I work.
  4. Same trigger, just a curved vs flat bow.
  5. Dual charge is all you'll likely get. Given they don't even make any of their off-the-shelf versions with a side charge receiver it seems unlikely that they'll mill a third JP5 receiver design on top of the two they already do.
  6. The SD3G is much better than the standard EZ trigger on the off-the-shelf models. I was pleasantly surprised by the JP Fire Control Group setup I got in one of my JP5s, but I swapped it with the SD3G so all my JP5s have consistent triggers.
  7. What are the rules on storing a flagged and uncased PCC?
  8. If the barrel break-in process is "shoot the $^@% out of it" then yes. I'm in the camp that says that for non-precision (sub-moa) barrels manufacturers provide break-in instructions because customers want break-in instructions.
  9. And, bringing the discussion full circle to my original question, pushing PCC shooters to uncase at safe tables would promote leaving PCCs stacked up on safe tables ready to unbag (or already unbagged), potentially out of sight of the competitor. Given there are no rules on leaving a gun unattended this would be legal per the rules, but have some obviously undesirable consequences. There is nothing wrong with safely unbagging a flagged PCC into the berm, nor is there any time limit or distance defined in the rules that would limit a shooter from arriving at a stage, dropping their case by the berm, unzipping it, and placing the PCC on top of the case with the flag visible, even if they have the entire squad ahead of them in the order.
  10. In SCSA you start and finish, at most, a couple steps from the starting point, and it is very easy to ensure the bag is out of the way. Thats not the case in USPSA -- do we expect someone to bring the bag out to the shooter at ULASC?
  11. PCC staging areas are just designated locations for uncasing (and storage) within 2 yards of a berm. PCC staging areas have no official status under the rules. Thus uncasing (and storage) within 2 yards of any suitable berm must be just as acceptable.
  12. I read a different discussion on the lack of chamber flag specifically -- missing a chamber flag is not a DQ under any of the 10.5.x rules, but should be corrected to comply with 5.2.1.4 (which specifically states that a lack of flag should be resolved under RO supervision). The discussion was regarding how not every rule violation is a DQ offense and that there are other resolutions. Now, deliberately removing a chamber flag outside of LAMR or a safe area is a DQ under 10.5.1.
  13. That's a good theory -- sequencing situations where rules transition from one to another are ripe for issues, but I find USPSA is pretty good on those (actions before vs. after LAMR, etc.). I suppose in the act of uncasing one could say the PCC is being "carried" but as one must uncase horizontally directly into the berm, that would then invalidate the entire uncasing rule. I consider "carried" to be the act of moving an object from one place to another. The other thing we'd need to find is a 10.x rule that would create a penalty -- 10.5.19 (failure to point at berm while uncasing PCC, doing other safe-area type tasks) and 10.5.1 are closest, but don't seem applicable to 5.2.1.7 uncasing as long as it is done correctly.
