The apiero double stack is what I'm talking about. ( It's been a long match day, so excuse the muddled thought process). --JCB

I thought it would be legal for limited-10 with only 10 rounds in the mag, or 120mm mags loaded to 10 rounds. ---JCB

I have had three AET barrels, and they were the most accurate barrels that I have shot especially out of the ransom rest. I have shot all kind of bullets except lead cast bullets. As a old bullseye shooter ( shot for 18 years, Disting. Master) , in my opinion they are more accurate than the other favorite bullseye barrels. ---JCB

After having an SVI open gun, and a Limcat open gun, I ordered two more Limcat limited guns . One for my son, and one for a friend . I do not know what you'all are talking about on slide looseness, all of mine were exceedingly tight. Did you buy them used? As for myself I will not be buying any more SVI, it will be Limcat. - JB

Chuck, When do you plan on having your USPSA match dates. ( first sat, fourth Sundays etc? dates?) Thanks--John Booth

cecil, Have you chronod the load that you are using?? You may be at major already. I use that load, with my Limcat, with six holes, and make 172 power factor. ---JWB

A great match, with stages that seemed straight forward, but could trick you up. Thanks Jake, and the great RO crew. The RO's were very helpful, and friendly. Good time. PS. did anyone find a Sidewinder slide racker (silver) on stages 15- 18 or 1-4. The slide racker came out of my open gun. If so would you PM. me, and I'll give you shipping address, and shipping money. Thanks---Hunter Booth

Mads, It was good shooting with you today. A very good match, and a great squad. ( the match as great also, but I will have too many greats in here). It's always good shooting with Bill Seevers, because I always learn something. Thanks for the effort.--John B

STI makes several 2011's with stainless slides. The Apiero for one. Check out their web page. ---JCB

Bountyhunter, I believe he is in error. I have Colt 1911 Gov. Models from the early '50's, '70 series, and '80 series. They all have .198 pins . From when I started shooting Bullseye in 1974, the standard pin dia. has been .198. We used .200 pins to take up the slack in worn pistols. They would lock up a little tighter that way.---JWB

The Apiero has a stainless steel slide , Not hard chromed. The Executive has a Hard chrome finish, all over. I have both.---JEB

Mfrits, Check the recoilmaster closely. When they start to come undone they cause this kind of problems , Just like a shockbuff coming apart. I like recoilmasters, and I think they do a good job, but they do crack, and start to separate at the flange. JWB

The 9mm head diameter is .394. The 38 super head diameter is .406. the 38 super comp head diameter is .374. That is why Dillon puts a 380 ACP shellplate in the kit with 38super dies,for38 super comp when you buy a press with dies. so, it all is a little loose, but still works. The 38 super comp head diameter is the same as 380 ACP. ---JCB

Forgetful, I would not worry to much about it. I have about 90,000 rounds through a STI eagle, and never replace any of them. I TAKE THAT BACK . I DID PUT an aftec extractor in at about 40k.I also have an executive with 20k. I have done nothing to it. Just my.02 worth---JCB
