I'm seriously thinking about sending Taran my G34 for his RTS (Ready to Shred) package. If any of you have a Glock with some of Taran's work, please post up your photos. Thanks, Trace

Some of the best Limited shooters in the DFW area are Cops. A couple of them run the range at their Department and probably get some additional Department ammo...... As to their covering the windows, my guess would be low light shooting or maybe some of the Narcotics officers were shooting and they wanted to protect their identity.

Welcome. There are lots of places to shoot around the DFW area.

Good for you and congratulations!

So which is more important, building the sport or safety? I have never seen ignorance of the law stand up as reason not to follow it. I set up a new shooter safety certification course at our club and run a match specifically for new shooters. In the year we have been doing it I can tell you about 1 in 5 new shooters at the PSSC is ready to try this kind of match before the class. The other 80 percent need to be taught what is safe and what is not. About 1 out of 5 should not be allowed to participate without more, much, much more experience and training and testing. We routinely ignore the warning signs of shooter danger in order to get bodies onto the range. I see shooters who have been competing for years and decades who do not know the rules, are not safe and are not going to pick them up by osmosis. Don't be in a hurry to get your buddy into a match. Take him out and teach him, see if he's capable and safe and if he's not, make him be or don't bring him out!!! This sport is hard and very stressful. Don't throw new shooters into the water to see if they can swim. Dang Rob, you must have been extremely bored to be on here!! I'll send Holland back out to Arizona to give you something to do!! I think he likes having to buy your lunch! In my opinion they are equally important. Without the sport, you don't need the rules, right? I like the idea of a more intensive new shooter briefing. Obviously you can't cover everything, but something more than the usual "breaking the 180 and keeping your finger out of the trigger guard while moving" would be great.

You must have watched a different video than I did. The Bayou bullets looked much less smokey to me. Of course its VERY early here in Texas......

4.7 under a 180 grain JHP loaded to 1.22.

That looks great!

It's not the total weight of the gun, it's the total weight of the reciprocating mass that matters with 9mm, especially in 9mm minor. The lighter the slide, the better. A 6" unlightened slide can feel very sluggish with 9mm minor. That is why I suggested a 5"...

I'm not an RO, but I would support what happened there. My guess would be that the majority of new shooters have not read the rule book before their first match and if they don't have an experienced shooter guiding them through their first few matches, they might break a lot of rules. Depending on who that new shooter was, had he been DQd at his very first match, he might not have ever shot another one. I do realize that safety is extremely important, but so is building the sport. Now is where you blast me with "So where do you draw the line?"......

They sold that one on Friday, but have a couple of G19s with a lot of ZEV goodness

If your only options are 5" or 6" for 9mm, go with 5"....

No worries

This one gets my vote.

Ya'll are making me want one!

Who cares, buy one!! They are the only ones who know how to make a Glock look sexy!! A gun store near my office sells them and had a G22 all Zev'd out. It looked great and the trigger was pretty sweet too!

That is my all time favorite design........

Not entirely true....I've been running Protecmac antivirus software on our two for a few years now....

Vented meaning popple holes?

Brandon had shot both set ups a lot and told me the sight recovery was better/faster on the standard dust cover. The Butler cut will add quite a bit of weight because it's on a Bianchi width frame as well.

I can't rack the slide because I have dummy rounds that are beat to crap in my magazine.....

+1

Nice
