  1. We don't need to be like NASCAR! Changing rules every year, even during the year, to keep "EVERYONE" on a level playing field. The LEO's that shoot with us, shoot their duty guns. They make the choice to keep doing that or decide to go to another division and equipment because its fun and improves their gun handling skills immensely...
  2. A LH Buddy shooting a PSA AR9 found TC Accessories brass deflector is good for keeping stuff from hitting your face when shooting left handed. I'm a lefty and the debris coming back at my face was the first thing I noticed when trying his PCC. After the TC accessories piece was added, it didn't seem to be an issue. It was the A3 style piece, you can mount where it the most effective. Powder choice plays a big part in reducing the "debris" coming back. Faster is better for blowbacks.
  3. Bingo! Desktop was locked. Thanks all for the help! John
  4. yep, I can drag and drop the new icon just fine. Tap and hold the old one doesn't bring up the popup box. Is there a setting locking any changes to the "special desktop"? john
  5. when I update app from 1.3.8 to 1.3.14 the "new" PS shortcut isn't on my home page. Old one is still there just deactivated. I can get the new one added to the home page, my question is how can I remove the old shortcut from the home page?
  6. If you can't ride the safety with your thumb, these come highly recommended! No more accidental safety movement. Scott was easy to deal with.
  7. Yep, had the same problem. Like was already said, fully push the shell thru the elastic holder. If you leave the shell so it isn't all the way thru the elastic (Hey, I can grab it better this way), the recoil combined with the tension of the elastic on the end of the shell, tends to squirt 'em out like a water melon seed. When you need it...low and behold it isn't there or it has moved (closer to the moving bolt handle).
  8. We held a Multi Gun match today. Temps started out 8-9* then eventually made low 20's by the time the match was over. Cold depletes batteries faster.. but leaving the WiFi on the Nook when not needed, positively DRAINS them. You should still be able to do a match w/o the Nook shutting off cuz of low power. We try to keep them inside jackets with the back of the Nook to the shooter when not scoring. Seemed to work ok. We have bought some hand warmers to hold on the nooks, just didn't use them today. 4 stages, 2 relays of 12 shooters. Need some type of pouch to keep them in with the warmer(like stated above, just something waaaay cheaper.) Our Nook's have a leatherette cover on them BTW. John
  9. Anybody have contact info to so I can get a Rim Edge C More mount for the 22/45?? thanks, John
  10. The slide is marked 40 or 9. So putting on a 40sw slide on a 9mm frame, then putting the 40 to 9 conversion barrel in it would not be Production legal. Technically, swapping a complete 9mm top end onto a 40 M&P frame would not be legal either. But unless the chrono guy(inspector) has a list of serial numbers per caliber only you would know any different.
  11. I'm not entirely sure it's "another one" if you look at the web page here: http://www.nelsoncustomguns.com/22lr-conversion/ You can see they clearly tout "Designed by Bob Marvel" which would lead me to believe that they are using the same basic blueprints, but we all know that implementation can vary widely from vendor to vendor. Would be interesting to see what all will interchange between these. Ideally I could wind up running the Nelson mags in my Tac Sol upper. NightHawk also has their version of the "Designed by Bob Marvel" .22 conversion available... these are the latest (Gen2)version of the original Marvel Prec.. conversion. There are subtle packaging diffs/options tween them.
  12. For info on that "Tommy Gun" you like the looks of, try http://abernathygunworks.com Jeff Abernathy is the one I believe that built that "TommyGun" Good luck on your 1911 hunt.
  13. I'll add my .02 worth to this...Tim has gone above and beyond with great customer service, in answering questions AND fast shipping. John
  14. By the looks of the pic, I'd say it's healing pretty well. I lost a little bit more than you did, I've barely got a nail at all... You'll be good to go soon. Dryfire at first to get the feel of the trigger again(or lack of). I have a bit more take up on my triggers now. Little or no take up can surprise you...Trust me, your finger tip will just be numb. Sensitivity will come back, just not right away. Practice a bit before heading back to matches and you'll be fine. With off season coming up, maybe you'll be able to take in indoor match if available. (takes the cold out of the equation). Good luck! John
  15. I've experienced the near the same injury to my strong hand...I was lucky(?)mine healed good enough without add'l work by Doc. Get used to letting the R.O.'s know about the shortness of your finger. You'll also appreciate finding short reach trigger combinations and Grips. With the nerves kinda fubar'd that finger tip gets heat/cold INSENSITIVE. It'll take some effort but, soon you'll not be thinking about it and just shooting. Good luck, John
  16. It was our pleasure guys! Thanks to all the shooters that helped make the 2013 Great Plains Sectional Match a success! John
  17. Try over at rimfirecentral.com for your answer. Alot of info on anything .22 cal. Someone over there should have the info you want.
  18. I've had an M2 and a VersaMax Tactical done by Benny @ Triangle Shooting Sports. The way he opens them up with the mill can't be duplicated at home. Benny's loading ports are as BIG as they can be made. Look great! Best money I spent for improving my shotgun reloading times. Double or quad loads are easy. Also,if you haven't had your lifter welded...that also comes highly recommended. John
  19. got mine yesterday. LOOKS great! Quality throughout. (as expected) My forend never did lock down without a little wiggle on the stock setup. Nice and tight now. It was a pretty tough to break the stock one loose. Well worth the effort. Thanks,Mark!
  20. Waterfowl is 28" correct? Most like 26" or shorter. Grabagun has Blk 26" in stock. Great starting point. I've got the tactical, but wouldn't hesitate getting a 26" length barrel. LM choke is generally a good all around one. Tactical choke came right out and will never get used. Welded lifter is HIGHLY recommended! Caught my thumb once on the clock...You don't want to do that!
  21. I'm a lefty with smaller hands. I use my Middle finger to hit the mag release w/ Trigger finger along the frame(it helps support the weight and keeps it out of the trigger guard). It was easier, with less contortion for me to use the middle finger than the index finger. Try the right side mag release for awhile and I think you won't go back.
  22. Thanks for passing the info on. Really great price. Ordered one. Good karma will follow.
  23. I've got a couple of 22/45 Rugers with replaceable grips. A "Lite" version with Cmore and a 6 7/8" "Hunter' bbl for iron sight class. VQ internals in both. Love 'em! YouTube helps you thru installs and tear downs the first couple of times. After that everything just falls into place.
  24. Welcome to the Benos universe. Where's you home club?
