  1. The CanyonCreek product is worth the wait!!!!!!!
  2. I'm partial to Bearcreek. good product at a good price. moly coated lead bullet. been running the 180gr for several years and have always been good.
  3. Canyoncreek for the magwell. It's the way to go. IMO
  4. Factory ammo or your reloads??
  5. Check out Competitive Action shooting sports on FB. The info about the new Vltor slimline vis is there with pics. Sorry I couldn't get them loaded here.
  6. area of upper receivers and railed hand guards for the M16 / AR15 family of rifles to address the demands of modern warfare and the needs of our modern war fighters this has resulted in several innovative products: CASV (adopted by U.S Navy EOD Teams) Gen 1 VIS VIS-A5 VIS KeyMod The VIS SL is the newest product in this evolution and is based on lessons learned from over a decade of continual combat operations. All VIS receivers are a monolithic railed upper receiver that are of polylithic construction, two components that are permanently bonded together prior to machining of the 12 oclock rail. This allows free f loating of the barrel without the increased stresses placed on the bolt and barrel extension portion of the upper receiver that traditional rail/ hand guard systems exhibit. Traditional rail/ hand guard systems have 100% of the rail / hand guard weight and the weight of any enablers used supported only by the barrel nut on the relatively short barrel extensionThe hand guard body along the 3:00 and 9:00 positions between the four short sections of fixed M1913 rails is slimed down offering the fallowing enhancements: The transition between the slim section and the fixed M1913 rails gives the shooter: Enhanced ergonomics, lowers the profile of the system in the primary griping area Integrated hand stop Integrated index points Integrated thumb rest / *thumb rest [generic]* The slim section is textured for enhanced grip to aid the shooter with: Driving the muzzle between targets CQB muzzle strikes CQB weapons retention Side bracing in a improvised rest ( window or door jamb) KeyMod direct mounting points at the 1:30 and 10:30 positions are not designed to accept rails they are optimized for low profile mounting of KeyMod enablers such as: Offset iron sights Offset Mini Red Dot (MRD) CQB sights Visible Lights The bottom of the hand guard along the 6:00 position incorporates the following features: Removable lower hand guard for M203 mounting Wide flat bottom that aids in a improvised rest No mounting points in the 4:30 and 7:30 this lowers the profile of the system in the primary griping area Full length KeyMod along the 6:00 oclock position VIS SL incorporates key features to support legacy M1913 enablers as well as emerging KeyMod enablers while also incorporating features that enhance the shooter to weapon interface in a slim and light package. No KeyMod holes are present in this area to eliminate the pinch and snag hazards they would present in a CQB environment. This texture is aggressive enough that many shooters dont feel the need for a add on hand stop or angled fore grip device in the 6:00 oclock position of the hand guard
  7. I'm working on getting the pics up. Its not surprising they haven't even posted on their FB page. It's a really idea. Please visit their FB page and ask about it. Vltor has a history of developing great ideas and product, but never following through. As an example I give you the Bren-10. Where is it?????? This new rail is awesome and I'm sure with enough feedback they will get the hint.

  9. That is sooooo wrong!!!!! If a mag has no rounds in it, it shouldn't matter if there is a round in the chamber. long live IDPGAY
  10. Berry's is selling for $130 on their site. I find it hard to believe that someone is getting them for $50 less per thousand for 180gr .40
  11. I get it. there are probably some out there that have used a roll crimp without realizing it.
  12. Just putting out there what I read.
  13. There are some on other forums that do use a roll crimp, but that is primarly with revo.
  14. I'm currently using the FCD die with bearbreek 180gr molycoated bullets with zero issues. What I have found is that some guys are having issues with coated bullets cause they are using a roll crimp and the FCD die as the last step in the process on progressive presses. Check your dies as a roll crimp will cause the case to cut into the coating and this is where the problem occurs.
  15. Well I just got off the phone with LEE and the .40 FCD crimp die is a taper crimp. FYI to clear this up.
  16. I CARRY ONE MORE MAG THAN I WILL NEED TO COMPLETE THE STAGE. I MAINLY SHHOT LIMITED AND THIS HAS SERVED ME WELL!!!
  17. Just go really really fast the accuracy will come. JK JK take your time get your hits and dont get caught up in the equipment race that so many do. Run what you have and have!!!!!
  18. haha I'm sure I can find a collector that will give me a fair price for a rare pair of revo's
  19. Wow thanks. The two I have don't come with the original boxes etc but thanks for the info.
  20. I took this in a trade and looking to see if anyone knows anything about the value. I know it was produced in 1980 and was part of a military contract, it's a 38SPL with a lanyard ring. Thanks, Brian
  21. TAKE A BREAK we all get to that point at some point, some sooner that others!!!!
  22. USPSA does not need that kind of division, that is why we have IDPGAY to shoot if we choose.
