I just spend a half hour re-reading some IDPA rules and I still don't know what the present holster rule is. I gave up USPSA but I could be persuaded to pull the holster off of the IDPA-banned belt if it means I can shoot IDPA/ESP with it.
Heal of the gun has to be above the top edge of the belt and the holster has to be no more than 3" from the shooters body. I went back to my RHT dropped and offset. And of course your cover garment has to cover it.

Sarge pointed me in the direction of the one that works with the hundo. I can gauge 100 rounds and have them in the case in 90 seconds now.

The only knock I get is the powder funnel pulling out of the case. Cycle it 8 times with no cases to make sure the noise isn't there first. Then put a primed case under the powder die and see what happens.

I can tell you that if I shoot duty ammo out of my PCCs, I will often get some hot debris on my face....keep in mind, I'm a lefty and my face is on the same side as the ejection port. Never happens with softer shooting ammo.

Welcome to Texas!

This is where the Big Panda should chime in........

Got it - does it feel different turning your head with the weight of the headset or is it pretty light?
It's pretty light, but you certainly know you have something on your face. I don't get a crisp view, probably because of my eyesight. I've not messed with mine in many weeks. It's the kid's game now.

Anyone here using this and need glasses? Curious how that works out with the headset. Never had VR so not sure how real it feels visually.
It comes with a spacer if you need to wear glasses.

Used mine again yesterday. So quick and easy to use. One of the best investments I've ever bought.

I shoot an XC in IDPA. No issues with the box or weight with 126mm mags.

yeah, I forgot to mention, I shoot IPSC in the Netherlands (Europe)
Shooters don't paste or RO at our matches.
But we see the same thing... persons being out of breath after shooting a long course which took them 24 seconds and included one semi-sprint.... and on top of that, being tired from just standing around for a few hours...
Physical condition is definitely an issue but even more so in the US, from what I can tell from match footage on youtube...
Well keep in mind, from what I've read, most of us hold our breath when we start shooting. So, that might be the reason for being out of breath.

that was my thoughts as well. COps dont even do anything about actual crimes when you call. Somehow I dont see this being recorded anywhere, past whoever answers the phone saying ,,"thanks"
You're right. We don't do anything but get a paycheck.

Well the original grips sucked, so I know why they replaced them. I bet the 600-800 range would be correct. I traded a G43x with optic and light for the same generation P220 not long ago. It is all original and I will likely never shoot it. I've got a P220 Legion if I need to scratch that itch.

That's not how it works. Somebody might run into the same issue and want to ask you or some of the other posters questions.

I wasn't thinking much of it until I experienced it. We were in downtown Fort Worth doing interviews, so I thought we were going to miss it. Probably 100 or so TCSO folks got to enjoy it.

Thank you all for your replies, I just shot it again today and the same problem persists definitely not the optic or anything that’s loose. I do have a question, how do you check the barrel link? When it is in battery and push down on the barrel, it does not move. The only thing I noticed is that if mount the barrel in the frame with the slide stop in the link and not using the slide, it doesn’t lay flat on the frame it kind of wobbles from side to side. I thought if you don’t have the slide on the gun and the barrel is in the frame with the slide stop and you push it forward and down it is supposed to lay in that gap between the rails. Mine does not. I think this might be part of the Problem but I don’t know what to do to fix it.
IIRC, Remove the slide from the gun, put the slide stop through the barrel link and push it back into the barrel lug. The slide stop should still be able to rotate inside the link.

My club uses wood strips with rubber matting attached to it, and duct tape to help hold it in place. And Chalk lines for where it is supposed to be. Tape doesn't stick very well on the dirty concrete floor.

I've shot a ton of their 124 Match Winners and they are good. But I've found a source for 125 HAPs for the same price. Much cleaner on the comp and extremely accurate. Shot a 1" group at 25 yards today in an uncomfortable position.

RMR makes awesome bullets

If I was starting over, I'd go Mark7. But I've got my 1050, bullet feeder and RF100 running great. So, I don't want to start a new learning curve.
-
Depends on how you look at it. My current load is a Hornady 125 grain HAP over 4.8 grains of N330 to 1.125" using fully processed brass. This costs me around 26 cents a round. Can I buy factory ammo for less, yes. But if I want to buy a round that is similar to what I'm loading, it will be at 50+ cents a round from Atlanta Arms or Staccato.

Welcome to the forums. You picked a strange time for USPSA right now. Maybe get back into IDPA till things settle back down!!

Well that's interesting. I picked up a Platypus as an IDPA gun (also just really wanted one) and was considering porting it. Comping just isn't an option on my gun, but ports are easy.
I'd port it for sure. The only thing keeping me from spending the money to add ports to the XC is one of the head Smiths at Staccato says they sometimes cause jackets to peel, especially on plated bullets.
Any new primer collaters? 2024
