Some cars are more prone to warped rotors than others. It helps to torque the wheel nuts to the recommended value...not have them put on with an air ratchet.

Jesse, I got DQ'd on Stage 7 before the buzzer even went off because the RO asked me in the howling 30 mph wind to move one step forward instead of saying "load and make ready" like he should have.....I drew my gun to load, he put the hammer down. Everyone called BS, but there was nothing I could do. $100 arbitration is a bad joke that needs to be changed. Left me with a feeling I was cheated out of time, effort, and money..... Sorry you got DQ'd,too...

I got DQ'd at Area 4 yesterday, a real BS call, too. I seriously fumed for a stage, then helped tape and set steel a bit while alternately watching other squads shoot. Same here., And, at an hour or so per stage, I can see where folks could easily decide to head out.

Generally, a heavier slide can run with a lighter recoil spring and a lighter slide needs to have a heavier spring.Too little slide mass in major PF guns must be made up with higher spring rates. I had the slide of my Limited gun lightened by an ounce, and I had to increase the spring rate by at least a pound to get the "optimum" recoil characteristics. IMHO, lightened slides are more appropriate in minor PF guns.

Both, that's what I did.. Are you going to be shooting IDPA or USPSA?

These grips from CZ Custom might work... My link

hammer down.

You can haul your ass to Little Rock on the first Sunday of the Month....USPSA at CASA. casarange.com Old Fort Gun Club in Ft. Smith has Multigun once a month. THe Benton club shoots an IDPA leaning multigun match occasionally, 3 gun matches take too long to complete, so I rarely shoot one, perhaps someone else will chime in who is more involved....

The 9mm mags you want are the newest design Mec-Gar produced magazines. You can order them directly from EAA. They are about $25 a piece. I got some from Midway, also. They have run flawlessly. YOu do not want the magazines with the red follower as they are the old style mags.

I thought it was going to be MFS ammo, which is owned by RUAG,the same company that produces GECO...but the match ammo is made in Hungary....

Even though it's now knocking on the door of being "classic", some Uncle Tupelo (and later Son Volt + some early Wilco)might pique your interest. Even though it's labeled as "alternative country" since they frequently have a punk tinged edge, but they put out some great music..and when they rocked, they really rocked. Yes indeed there on both counts.

I may be mistaken..as my Match does not have the same thing as my Limited does...

I think the mk7 versions with t he interchangeable backstraps actually look better than the original, but damn, they need to hire an Italian or SOMETHING to work on the looks of those things. So what if she is ugly, can she cook? Production division was designed for the Glock so it is ugly division anyway

I thought it was brand new..it's on the IPSC production list....yes, it is ugly. The stupid "X-Calibur" on the side looks terrible too. I'd take a plain slide version, please.

I guess the question is..do you see anything that would make it illegal for production?

If you take the slide off, there is a place inside the frame in front of the trigger with a date code....at least on my Limited A 09= Agosto 2009 The two digit code I referred to in an earlier post has nothing to do with the serial number. both mine are like that ea28226 (witness p) ea23149 (witness)

Those two examples are the same gun.. The main addition to these over the standard Shadow is the slide has been milled for the adjustable sight.

SP-01 or Tanfo Stock 2

I've never shot an STI in competition.... the recoil on the Tanfo Limited .40 I usually run does seem a bit snappy, but it is very quick back on target. I've found that if I use a strong grip and have my shoulder very forward when shooting, the recoil is easily controlled and I can get quick split times with the gun....I'm just a "B" Limited shooter, though. I've had the slide lightened, and I run a heavier spring. For a slide with no weight reduction, the 10.75 brings the gun right back on target...

my 2009 Limited is CD

Look above the trigger guard on the right hand side of the frame for the two letter stamp in the box. AB=1976 AC=1977 AD=1978 AE=1979 AF=1980 AH=1981 AI=1982 AL=1983 AM=1984 AN=1985 AP=1986 AS=1987 AT=1988 AW=1989 AZ=1990 BA=1991 BB=1992 BC=1993 BD=1994 BF=1995 BH=1996 BI=1997 BL=1998 BM=1999 BN=2000 BP=2001 BS=2002 BT=2003 BW=2004 BZ=2005 I think CA=2006 CB=2007 CC=2008 CD=2009

If you just want something for the range, I would bet a regular 16 rnd Mec-Gar witness mag would fit, although it'd stick out far from grip. You might try a Baby Eagle compact mag. It probably won't feed anything but factory ammo, but it might fit.

keep an eye on Gunbroker, there are bound to be some come up for sale.

Solo 1000 works for me...
