[Standard Deviation]

All,

Thanks for the replies!

I still think I would measure standard deviation as a population instead of a sample, but I like dialog... thanks again!

[Standard Deviation]

Why does my chronograph calculate standard deviation as a sample and not as a population?

I get that the recorded shots are a sample of all the rounds of that lot that could be fired, but I'm really only interested in the shots that were fired.

Looking forward to some knowledge

[Lefty Weak Hand Thumb Placement]

I'm going with grip-tape for the time being... but I have contacted the builder to determine cost/time to convert to a Serendipity.

[Ok, I need some serious thinking - 9mm Major and FTE]

Tell our mutual friend that I will pay him $1 for the gun and mags and pay half the shipping to get it to Austin. If the wife signs off, I will be able to do $2.

Ha

Dude, you know I'm first in line

[Lefty Weak Hand Thumb Placement]

I'm looking for a broader, higher grip surface my weak-hand thumb.

I've shot a couple of open guns that had a c-more Serendipity which has legs on both sides of the frame. The right leg gives a broader, higher grip surface for the weak-hand thumb than just the frame below the slide.

And, while i'm going to consider a thumb-rest, I'm more likely to have the single-sided mount changed out for a Serendipity.

[Lefty Weak Hand Thumb Placement]

There you go, that's what I'm talking about

Thanks!

[Lefty Weak Hand Thumb Placement]

I'm new to open and shooting a shorty with a single-sided C-More mount.

After much fiddling around I've decided that I would prefer a Serendipity with mounting brackets on both sides because the only place for my weak-hand (right) thumb is the frame and that's just not large enough.

The frame is not drilled on the right-side so anything will require a gunsmith to drill and tap the frame. I'm thinking my options are having a Serendipity installed or some sort of thumb-rest.

Looking forward to any thoughts/feedback/comments before I ship it off

[Book of Eli]

Liked it. Don't think it's all that profound. The twist was interesting, but I don't know that it added much meaning.

[Speedy shoot - (You want WHAT?)]

It was a fun stage... the poppers really made people look at it twice.

[Looking for Info / Advice]

Thanks for the additional info.. I am going to look into the lapping... some of the High Power / Service Rifle guys I know swear by using Tubb's Final Finish http://www.davidtubb.com/finalfinish.html which is a lapping system.

Thanks!

Thanks to both for the replies.

Yep, it shoots fine; more accurate than I am.

I'll just enjoy shooting it.

Thanks,

Scott

Evening everyone.

It's been a while since I posted here, hope everyone is doing well.

On to my question... while cleaning my 625-3, I noticed a faint ring inside the barrel, about where the frame ends. Unscientific testing seems to indicate the ring is right at the barrel/frame joint.

It's faint, but definitely noticeable. I've attempted to take some photos of the ring. Pics here

I would appreciate any insight... I've never had a squib in this gun and don't recall the ring always being there.

Thanks ahead of time,

Scott

[2010 USPSA Area 6 Championships]

Just got home from working the match today. Will be shooting in the Am. We had something like 7 DQs today. Mostly were breaking the 180. Got to see some of the Super Squads come through. Pretty impressive shooting.

Good luck to everyone.

What stage were you working?

[My gun is set up for 38 Super Comp]

My antique SVI runs the tj brass fine but my shellplate on my 550 won't hold the brass correctly. It slips out on the sizing downstroke.

[Justified]

Compared to most of the other crud on TV, I've thought it was pretty good. This weeks episode was not as interesting as the previous two but I am quite sure was better than the episodes of 90210, Melrose Place, American Idol, or Dancing with the (Wannabe) Stars.

I mean you have a hit nosed Marshal known for a quick draw whose Dad is either a Knucklehead or a really Bad Guy, has worked his way out of the hills of Kentucky and suddenly is re-assigned there as punishment. And his girlfriend blew her husbands head off with a 12 ga.

I mean what is not to like!

There is definitely a lot of gun handling.

[Justified]

Anyone watching 'Justified'?

Evidently it's based on a short story by Elmore Leonard.

The guy who was the lead in the 'Hitman' movie is a US Marshal.

I've seen two episodes, but don't think it has the stuff to last... it's no Shield.

[2010 USPSA Nationals Slot]

So, if you win a slot at an Area match, is it for the current year or the following year?

For example, if someone wins a slot at the upcoming Area 6, is the slot for the 2010 or 2011 nats?

[OKC ICORE]

If you build it they will come. How can I help?

Are you back in OKC?

[Being a New Dad]

Cute, congrats! Our first is 10 months old... it's the best!

[Falling Through a Ceiling]

Get well soon......RBGC is just around the corner.

Thanks, I'll be there!

[Revolver Specific Skills]

Javier,

I have a couple of the Hougue smooth wood with finger grooves if you would like to try them while here in GA.

Why don't you come to our Sunday night shoot in Cumming this Sunday night? That way you can get all set up for Cherokee on the 13th.

Scott

[Falling Through a Ceiling]

Thanks for the responses. It was before a match and I was above the shooting area getting equipment down.

[Falling Through a Ceiling]

Tonight I fell through a ceiling (like a dumb*ss) because I stepped where I shouldn't have.

Eight feet or so to a concrete floor and busted up my ribs.

And at a match no less!

[Limcat Price Check]

Thanks for the responses.

I ended up with an SVI.

It may have been the same one you were looking at JRBean

[Brian's book.]

You know, someone should come up with an index or concordance for Brian's book. I'm just saying...
