  1. They need to be shot in the air. In USPSA they are disappearing, In other rules they are not and count as a miss so you had better break them or your stage is pretty much shot.
  2. With the A1 sights, I would say you wouldnt get a whole lot out of it. I would split the cmore up and sell it seperate. The upper would probibally be in the 250 range by its self without the Cmore or bolt
  3. Just a different feel in how the gun recoils and how the sights track and come back dow. Easiest thing to do is buy both and see which works best for you.
  4. the upper swap requires a couple tools ie the receiver block and armorer wrench. It isnt too hard of a job. If you dont have them a smith should be able to swap the pretty quick (might be a good time to get a FF handguard too). You could always build a second upper for the gun as well
  5. typically 12.5 or 14 for the 40 depending on personal preference
  6. + 1 all mine is 50 round boxes. My 9mm of choice is the ranger 127+P+
  7. I think the high sights are more of a hinderance than a help on a shotgun. I have found I cant get near the cheekweld as I can with a straight bead sight. I shoot the bead faster than anything including a dot
  8. Key to doubles is in the timing. You want to make sure you do not wait too long on the first shot to cause problems with the second one. Just remember only 1 target is on each side of the field at any point in time as they cross at the middle. If you ride the first target way to long you are rushing for the second one. I have also seen people try and rush the first shot to try and get to the second one quicker. You really have plenty of time to take both shots. Just shoot the first one, shift the eyes for the second. The more you shoot them the more you figure out where the 2nd one should be based on where the first one broke. The real fun is the doubles on 3-4-5. When I shot alot of skeet I would bet 90+ of my practice was on doubles and ALOT of that was on those 3 stations
  9. The warren sevigney or the dawson sights are the way to go. For mags 5 should get you through. As expensive as perscription glasses are, I would spring for a set if you need to shoot with the perscription(I wear them but cant shoot in them and see the sight picture clearly so use regular ones). You only have one pair of eyes so that would be first on my priority list to protect them.
  10. Really wish they would make the ranger I again. I love the commander silde on an officer grip gun but its few and far between.
  11. Never done it and don't really see much of a point to it. I like guns I can actually afford to shoot and can easily locate ammo for
  12. Sounds good... but how do you get it off and preserve the sights? you spend the few buck and replace the sights. The rear sight can be flipped around for the black side
  13. Easiest thing to do is if you are shooting a target without activating it finish the COF then slowly walk to the area of the activator keeping the muzzel in a safe direction then activate it. Time is taken off the last shot.
  14. Saw the tutorial on cutting the grips for the techwell with a dremel and myself and a dremel do not mix for gunsmithing. Does any company or smith out there cut the actual VZ grips to fit with a techwell?
  15. The speed of a match can change quite a bit even with the same number of shooters depending on how everyone works and how complicated the stages are. Throw in a ton of problems waiting to happen ie alot of activating targets and reshoots can add alot of time. Stage placement in the bays can also help avoid jamming up ie speed shoot right before a long complicated field course. There is a local here that has some massive turnouts and never been out real late. We had upwards of I believe 18 or 19 on our squad once and we kept up with other smaller squads and they did not have to wait on us as everyone works and has a quick turn around on the stage.
  16. Go with the Spartan. MUCH better gun than the taurus
  17. Difference is in L10 EVERYONE has 10 rounds. In SS minor, 9mm guys do. The stage can make a big difference as to the benefit of major vs minor. If it is setup as more 8round friendly with little steel its not as much of a benefit. If its set up more for 10 rounds it can definately help to have those extra rounds. Alot of steel also helps as you have more margin for error on a minor gun than a major gun round wise. I shoot better with the 9mm than the major PF guns both more accurate and faster
  18. I say buy once cry once and go straight for the dillon. It can run one round at a time if you want or go progressive. The 550 is super simple. A single stage would get old VERY quick
  19. the stage can make a big difference as well. If it is basically set up for 8 rounds with little steel its not much of an advantage. If it is set up basically for 10 rounds it can make the stage planning much easier, with fewer reloads. It also gives you a little extra cushion on steel. For me at least, I found I shoot the minor gun more accurate and faster than I did with the major
  20. Kevin, same problem, ,but with inserts in my Rudy's I can see the front sight. The correction is in between reading and distance. Limited, L-10, SS and on rare occasions, Revo and Prod, even rarer Open. Interesting that I need to ware my regular glasses to shoot open! SSSHHHHHHHHH!!! As far as my wife knows glasses would not work for me and I HAD to get an Open gun! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!! Funny you mentioned it but I also noticed the dot is perfectly clear with regular glasses whereas iron sights are quite blurry! Saw the same thing here. I need glasses etc to see a red dot clear. If I try to shoot Irons with them I cant get a sight picture. Im not sure why it is but I have to stick with regular non perscription for the irons
  21. Carver makes a 9mm comp for minor loads
