  1. Any interest in a trade for the pistol? I have a 1.5-8 Ior Valdada.

    Jager strikers?

    I've been hoping to pick up some jager extended strikers but don't see any on their site. Also noticed that Vanek shows them out of stock (was looking at ordering his gm kit). Anyone know of they are around or will be available soon? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Don't know if it's been answered, but who is the Match Ammo provider?
  6. As has been said previously, you have to remember that the reliability is a product of gun, ammo, and mags. I just finished shootin the glocks only match in Idaho and saw a LOT of Glock malfunctions. Most were a result of bad reloaded ammo (out of spec) or garage gunsmithing. Mags are less of an issue because there is only one magazine available for glocks were 1911's have a lot of different mags with different specs. I've got a springer loaded and a les baer that run every bit as good as my glocks. As long as the mags and ammo are good they are set. The problem (for both glocks and 1911s) is the user making modifications. Both guns will require maintenance and will have parts break. The 1911 just has more parts and accessories available so specifications can vary.
  7. Any updates or reviews from those that have the new srts system?
  8. Lets some some pictures of those Caspian wide body guns!

    CZ Accu-Shadow

    Any updates? I'd like some pics or reviews for those with access. Add this to the srts and I'm saving pennies as long as it gets production approval.

    CZ Accu-Shadow

    Good question in legality. Also, Stuart can you fill us in some on the bushing? Will the front site be retained by anything if the bushing comes off? Does it use a wrench?

    CZ Accu-Shadow

    Wow very cool. Id like some further details. Why not ipsc legal?
  12. Having tried a lot of different stuff, I've settled on simplicity, reliability, and low cost. Go with the 3.5lb GLOCK connector (which you already have) and order either a Glockworx or Wolff reduced power spring kit. That'll give you a nice, crisp, reliable trigger. Plus it'll only cost you $8. The key is to replace the springs regularly (2k rounds) to avoid light primer strikes. For a little extra money, a Jager or Glockworx extended firing pin will ensure 100% reliability with all primers and the lighter springs. I've got 20k rounds through this combo and love it. It's not as light as some of the trigger jobs out there but it also costs next to nothing and always works. I just think it's crazy to drop $250 on a trigger for a $450 gun. I've found time and again that chasing a super light trigger in a Glock leads to problems. That isn't to say that the Glockworx, Glocktrigger, Vanek kits aren't good, they just aren't THAT much better than what I've got IMO.
  13. I really don't think it's a question of weight. Weight in production is a trade off. With a CZ you can definitely increase your split speed because the gun DOESN'T move in recoil. With a glock the gun is a little quicker in transition. I think the biggest reason that the DA/SA guns like CZ are gaining favor is the trigger system. You get a 1911 like trigger and only have to contend with the DA trigger for, at most, 20 shots. At the nationals they usually have a couple empty gun starts as well which cuts down on the DA shots as well. A well tuned CZ single action feels very very nice with a short reset. It's hard to get the polymer guns to compare. I think that is the biggest reason for the shift. When I was shooting a CZ I remember thinking that I was cheating because the gun felt much more like a limited gun than production.
  14. I would definitely second the RIA guns. Great quality for the price.
  15. Wow, awesome match! Some very challenging and fun stages. Nationals quality if you ask me. Thanks to all that made it possible.
