Seems awkward to do while keeping them close enough to your belt to satisfy the division rules. Also a good way to drop your gun and get DQ'd probably.
I again. That was a joke!
-
Either way any fix short of a new bbl is a crude fix on an expensive gun.
-
Don't know if rmr match winners are hp or full metal jackets. Hp's have no exposed lead on base. fmj's have exposed lead that gets vaporized and could be what's fogging glass.
-
Are you using hollow poi ts or round nose bullets.
-
The ports are angled towards the glass??that would explain a lot. I would try reciting front of hole forward a bit and see if that helps.if not can welder replace. I would lean to replace.
-
Welding on one side of Barrel will deform bore to some extent. May affect accuracy. New bbl is best solution. May try to angle holes forward before welding. Can't hurt.

"attached to the competitor's belt"
Most WSB will say "gun flat on table"...because people have been trying to game this for a long long time...Ya, that was meant as a joke.

I suppose if you could position yourself so mag is in mag pouch and under the gun at the same time?
-
A good tig welder can always save a over cut safety also.

In my experience a lot of dot mounts the locator posts are to loose and dot moves around shakes screws loose. Pins should be almost a light press fit.a dab of epoxy with release agent on pins may help.

Looks like perfs. To me but my eyes are old.

Well said.
No means no

From the diagram it looks like 3 separate shooting areas but I also know arguing about a stage design based on a 1 dimensional drawing is a waste of time.

I find shock buffs in open 38 super lasts 10000 rounds

A true gunsmith with a mill can do it easily. Talk to fellow shooters in your area. Make sure the smith has done before, you don't want to be the experiment.
Good luck.

Sure as a repair. But that's not needed if the slide was cut properly in the first place.
If all you have is a manual mill it's what you have to do. I have access to cnc mills so I always mill the posts.

Uspsa has never been a pure shooting contest. Has always had problem solving as a large part of it. Either physical or mental problem solving.

Hell no. And is that a DWX that was ruined?
Can always drill ream and add pins.

No recoil posts would be a no for me
Agreed. Will break screws off without posts. Have had to drill out broken screws and add pins for several people

This is not a USPSA problem this is a local problem. In my area we have 25-35 yd targets in every match. Seldom have movement more than 15 yards without shooting. If your local club puts on a crappy match shoot elsewhere or step up and help run a better match.

Accuracy- There are DAMN few tests like the 50 yard standards. There is no room for sight or trigger error at 50 yards. Yes the hosers would while like a jet turbine if we brought that back.
Speed- In the early 90's, my number is 177XX, it was speed to recover between shots as much as speed of movement, at least in the area I shot. As the game has turned into a movement test that has been weighted almost too much.
Power- I cant argue with what has been written- It takes work to develop the technique to manage a major limited gun, and honestly I dont have the time for that so I take the Minor penalty.
USPSA today is NOT about shooting- it is about Gun handling. Moving, reloading, draws etc are not "Shooting" they are what we do to get to the shooting, and done on the clock.
This will send some off the deep end- but one way re-rebalance the three parts of the DVC triad is to make it score divided by (time x 3) with Major and Minor in all divisions, except for single position speed shoots where time would be as now. The tablet could do the math for us. The net result would be to push folks to A's while minimizing the weight of speed. Fast shooting- recoil management and recovery- would be rewarded in speed shoots and movement time would be less weighted in long courses. I doubt the real top echelon would be impacted much, though I'd like to see how the other 97% of shooters stacked up.
Yes I know it will never happen.
All that would do is change hit factor.3x 15 seconds is still half as much as 3x30 seconds slow will still be slow .

Why not just go to the inevitable end and go airsoft now ?

I find the more complaining before they shot it the more they like it after they shoot it

The hammer will not fall when you pull the trigger on a flagged gun. The disconector de activates the trigger from the sear unless the bolt is fully in battery.

Used to be couldn't mandate a reload if movement was involved. It changed in last few years. Don't ask me when, I only pay slight attention to rule changes anymore.
