  1. No on the modified stupid stuff! Yes on reset but to factory default. Yes!
  2. Primers will not stay at .20 ea. Not at the level of production now. People aren’t going to pay .17 more per round of ammo and continue to shoot at the level they do now. At least not forever. Everything has a limit to “worth it”. We’re already seeing a decrease in participation. Yes there are more people coming into the gun market but that’s not gonna last forever either. Like you said, primers are out there if you want to pay. Nobody I know is paying those stupid prices. We can talk back and forth all day long. I totally support the free market but sometimes that means not buying. If prices go back down, maybe I’d get back in. Again free market. Which also means I’m free to wait for normal/reasonable prices. Companies have to choose what’s best for them. Thinking not just in current time but looking to the future. I don’t envy their current situation. I would not pay someone $25 to stand inline to buy me 1k primers. I don’t really even understand your argument here. But whatever. I’d be surprised if you were paying $300 per 1k like the “market supports”. If you are good for you. Hope you shoot them all before prices drop and you can get them for $50 per 1k. Do you man.
  3. The market won’t support primers at .20per primer. Some people may be paying that price currently but that price won’t keep people involved. So, it can’t hold. I’ll straight up quit shooting and take up another hobby. As will most people that shoot as much as I do. People still may shoot but not at the volume they do now. people straight up going for blood trying to make as much profit as possible, and really let’s just call that gouging since that’s what it is, are jerks. Straight up. There’s a difference in increasing cost because they have to pay more or will have to pay more for future materials and people waiting outside cabelas to buy primers and then running to the guns shows to mark that up 1000%. Any companies doing this will loose customers when things get back to normal. There are companies that I’m watching that will never get my business again. I’ll go without before in give them a penny. I choose to support companies like PV even more now. So, I’ll make the extra effort to buy form them. Even if their prices are higher. Free market. But..... you’re correct that people can buy primers if they’re willing to pay. As with pretty much anything else on the planet.
  4. Being pro free market doesn’t mean you can’t gripe and complain. not to mention not buying because of high prices. Pretty sure that’s part of a free market too, no? Price is more than someone wants to pay, so they don’t. Free market. prices come down maybe they buy again. Prices don’t come down, they continue not buying or get used to the new price and buy. Free market. Seems to be how it works, no?
  5. The email address makes sense why I’m only getting 22 to show up on the website. I changed it about a year or so ago.
  6. That shows 123 but some of those are idpa. I noticed it shows some matches I’ve withdrawn form. I’ve withdrawn from a lot. probably 10-15.
  7. Mine has always been wrong. I know because I just happened to count last night. That’s why I asked where the info was. I thought maybe there was another place to look. Anyways my count is 87 total. 16 of those are majors.
  8. Are you seeing a number somewhere or are you counting? is this form the competitor app or on the website?
  9. I like PV for what they’re doing. I agree in the free market but I like that they won’t pay those prices and that is how you drive prices back down. If people would quit panic/hoarding and paying crazy high prices, primers would be available at more normal prices. PV!
  10. This! It should be required reading before shooting you first match.
  11. Good shooters, are good shooters with any gun. None of those gun options are bad. There's no mysticism involved in who wins/does well with what gun. it’s not the gun. It’s not the gun. It’s not the gun. it’s not the gun
  12. Can the gun be switched over, back and forth, a lot? I would think, screws would think threads would start to strip?
  13. To be straight up with you, go get some quality instruction for a reputable instructor. The info you're gonna get here is going to be a mix of good to down right wrong. Most people don't even know how wrong they might be and you being new/unknowing/inexperienced won't know the what's right or wrong.
  14. Was just joking about the thread being a goof.
  15. This is a troll, right? We're being trolled right now, right? But I bet it happens eventually
  16. Everyone needs to just go back thru this thread and read what CHA-LEE is saying. No need to argue or debate. He lays it out and it's correct. No need to read anything else posted in this thread. I just saved you time, money and effort. You're welcome!
  17. Mbx unfortunately doesn't seem to offer any more rnd than other options. So, I see zero reason to pay the extra price for those. I'd buy Henning baspads and put them on stock mags. Get a rag and spray Teflon or get a silicon treated rag. Wipe the mags. Keep pro grip off them. Wipe the inside of the grip down. Wipe everything just enough to coat. Not dripping wet. Learn to keep the gun virtical when dropping the mag. That's the best setup I've found.
  18. So the high pressure of major is too much?
  19. But how's it run? With serious round count
  20. Edited. I understand what you're saying now. My comment was that a variant of the S2 (made by the original manufacturer) isn't legal? But they'll allow you to cut the reg S2 and add any aftermarket parts you desire? If this is in fact the case, that's crazy! Also, I pretty sure that the proper paperwork will be submitted shortly.
  21. So, I want to understand here. NROI is saying this is NOT legal? But the rules were changed to allow any hammer, trigger, non OEM external part? That's funny. And sad at the same time.
