Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. After firing, what's the distance of your reset when it catches the sear wedge again? I have the Ultimate match kit too and all works fine, and I get a crisp reset. However it would be nice to still have a bit lesser reset distance (guess I'm used to my CZ Shadow's reset), if possible and safe. Is it fine to reduce the "little wedge" further to still lessen reset distance? Or is this the max position where reducing it further would jeopardize the other parts (ie. perhaps like reduce the distance of the striker safety)?
  2. Couldn't this be caused too by the gun dipping after recoil, perhaps due to some shooter's grip methods? After firing a shot, I sometimes notice the sights dip a bit past the horizontal center (front sights bit lower than rear sights) before rising returning to alignment. Perhaps caused by the camming of the support hand, inducing this as the slide moves forward?
  3. I see, thanks for clarifying. Appears to be a better alternative to glasses. OTOH, it wouldn't be practical for me though, since I only need the correction when it's my turn to shoot on a stage, while I don't use any correction while not shooting (aside from the brief moments when I'd just have to read something really up close).
  4. Not sure how different it would have with my setup (+1.25 for right-eye, no correction for left-eye). With or w/o contacts, one eye would still have different grade from the other. No problem when viewing through the sights alone with the right eye, but I'm concerned when changing focus for the wider view to see the surroundings when starting to run (both eyes open).
  5. I see, what grade lenses do you use on both? So the different points of focus in both lenses doesn't make you dizzy when moving around? I'm just concerned I might feel dizzy when you switch focus from front sights (right eye) to distance (left eye) when you start running to another position in a stage. Or will the mind adapt to the left/distant eye? Yes, as @GrumpyOne mentioned, this is one result from a search. OTOH, anything wrong about it?
  6. Reviving this as I didn't seem to find any mention regarding running around on stages. With 'no prescription for non-dominant eye', and 'prescription lens, +1.25 for dominant eye', won't you get dizzy running around the stage, from one position to another, where you change focus to distance? I'm asking because just recently, my reading glasses increased, now to +1.50 so I had a new lens made (front sights) for +1.25, and when I initially tried them, though they were good for the front sights, I felt dizzy when looking at the periphery to move to another position Previously, with only +0.50 for front sights, it wasn't drastic so I didn't have issues. (For distant view, I don't need corrective lens). And with this, were you still using the patch over your left-dominant eye?
  7. Some clarification, does he mean lock the support wrist, or the strong hand wrist, or both? Just clarifying as he waves his strong hand every time he says lock the wrist. Thanks. Also, with locking the support wrist, I notice a bit lesser grip strength, vs a less canted/less locked wrist, but I guess grip strength should still be enough.
  8. I know this is old (just restarted after a 3-year break), but I hope the gurus respond to this. In the slow-motion parts of the video, I notice the gun stays slightly up after each the shot, rather than return down naturally. So I see Travis has to manually lower the sights and align them. Shouldn't the objective be, with good grip/stance/etc, that the sights should return down automatically after recoil? Mods: sorry, forgot my original login (sherpa) and created a new one.
