I am paid but not gonna make the match..... If anybody wants a cheap slot let me know soon !!!!

"significant advantage" seems very subjective to the stage and shooter... Kinda like an IDPA rule.

Interesting thread... At the Limited Nationals a shooter in my squad engaged two targets with two rounds each while out of the shooting area and was given 2 procedurals....one for each target not one per shot fired. Explain that one !!

Registration is open from 1-6.....GET THERE EARLY !

Buy a Glock...

Don't forget Derek Trucks and the amazing Warren Haynes.... And a local guy to me that is pretty damn good.....

No. See: The fact that you won't use the holster/pouches is irrelevant..... I routinely remove my rig before lunch and put it back on after lunch....I see lots of people do this. I guess that would be a violation as well... Sounds like an unenforceable rule.

Not all of us are members and receive the Tactical Pamphlet.. My renewal of membership is largely dependent on what comes out of the Tiger Team process...

Where are you located....Couldn't find an address on the website

We had our own line last year.......And in that line was the defending Limited National Champion !!

Thanks Kyle !!

Anybody interested in purchasing my spot at a reduced rate ???? Let me know through PM ASAP....

Awesome Paul Looking forward to meeting you there. I am shooting Friday, I think 201 squad with Julie and Sara and Many. That is until they figure out they put me on that squad and move me...... I think that dude with half a booger picker is on that squad too.......

HUH.....Maybe the Kool-Aid poison is finally out of your system....

Welcome !!!! I grew up in Hayden but now live in the arm pit of the midwest...

And how do you quantify "enough force to keep it in place"? Is it enough force to keep it in place with the back of the magazine touching the pads in the gauge? Or is it enough force to keep it in place that the mag doesn't fall out if the mag and gauge are held with the long axis going vertical? Hence the very reason I started this thread !!! Enough force to keep the magazine on top of the gauge while holding it up to a light to see if the pads are in contact with the magazine. Basically, very little force. I like it even better when I can just slide the mag up and down in the gauge. The gauge is made oversized, so a 'legal' magazine should fit in just by setting it on the gauge. As for the Glock basepads, I have not seen any that did not fit in the gauge. What model Glock magazines have this need for extra tall basepads? Bud Once again, your "idea" of how to measure magazines is not in the RULEBOOK

Stick with one method and SPECIFICALLY call it out in the PRINTED RULEBOOK..

Then why is the GAUGE used at major matches and the NATIONALS to check magazine length ???....When it is checked.

So does the gauge superced the ruler method ??? Kinda sounds that way

Good point/question. Doing it this way I feel you would end up with a subjective procedure... That is why I started this thread awhile back. If clearification can be made on HOW to USE the GAUGE and have it PRINTED in the RULEBOOK, then all of this wouldn't be an issue.. We have a gauge with tolerances build in... Let's all learn how to use it !!! It's crazy that we are still having this discussion nearly 2 years later. Help me out here, Nick. You don't like the way the gauge was used. You don't like measuring it old school. What will work??? I personally think the gauge is the way to measure, makes the process objective, which is what I love about USPSA. However, there is no mention of such gauge in the rule book or how to use the gauge. Yet, there is a BOD addendum saying the gauge is the official tool for measurement !! So......How is it to be used.... Should the magazine rest in the gauge naturally ( no external force) ?? Should the magazine have reasonable force applied in order to give the competitor every opportunity to comply ?? Which was my case BTW I personally don't care which method list above is used.... Lets pick one and use it...Oh ! and PUBLISH IT IN THE RULEBOOK !!!

You can't ask for better service !!!

CHEELY CUSTOM GUN WORKS....He is also a forum sponsor and a heck of a nice guy !!
