Right now I am pretty jealous. My Modified Blaster doesn`t look so awsome... Nice one you have there... Benny

Hello.. no I actually have no clue about the how much... I received the blaster like shown.. but in in a couple of days I will find out because I am going to modify another C-More for my open-modified-gun-project... so I will see how much. But I think there is not much more room at the module, I think what I have is kind of maximum.. I will convert my open blaster into a ultra shorty open/Modified type 9mmMajor gun. It way too long at the moment I like the handling of those little buggers so much.. Beside that: I you have issues in getting the geometry right for the box I suggest you to cut off a little more at the grip/magwell. you can`t go wrong there... DVC Benny

+1 on that.The modified virus is kind of stimulating... I am really thinking about a conversion for my Open gun. Its way too long... I think I will change it to a 9mm Modifed-length open-blaster for shooting minor-modi/major-open and bugging the open guys in OD at local matches where no modified division is available. But in that case with a 140mm mag Benjamin

+1 for that. The same for me and my zero with 6MOA dot. I was at a match last weekend with some 3meter targets it worked very well for me there.. DVC Benjamin

I don`t. Shoot right there where I want to make some holes. Almost Alphas on that close targets so I think I am right. Maybe I do subconsciously but I will check at the next training session. DVC Benny

I have sighted in at about 20m (approx 22y) and I found out that my hits are just in the Dot. Up until 50m (55y) My dot is 6 MOA on both pistols my Open (9mmPara Major) and my Modified (.40 Major). I don`t have more trajectory than my dot is in size. We have had targets at about 32m at the 2009 Med-Cup in France, my shots were exactly on the same position like my dot was. So I am always fine with my zero. No thinking about it at all. DVC Benjamin P.S.: Sorry for the grammar..don`t think that was correct 100%.

Good luck with that... you will not regret your decision about the modified division... its so much fun shooting those little firebugs As I said before: welcome to the even darker side..... DVC Benajmin

Hello and first of all welcome to the even darker side... My advice will be: Go for a compensated gun in .40 to be competitive My Blaster is shooting kind of flat, not as flat as my open but pretty flat. I don`t have a hybrid, I have a two chamber comp with another two poppy holes in the barrel. My blaster: another picture: here is a disassembly picture: My Load is: 165grs Frontier 7.1 grs N340 CCI500 Small Pistol Standard OAL: 30.50mm Brass: mix Have fun building and then shooting your modified-blaster DVc Benjamin

I use for my DMS-1 the Millett M4 Riser with medium Tactical-Rings also from Millett. Works great for me. Here you go: DVC Benjamin

My XR15 with Millett DMS-1 in M5 length.. Benjamin

I used to load Win small pistol, now I am using CCI500. Works fine for me. Price issues no primer issues. Benjamin

Modified is so much fun and its innovative for the enhancement of those nice -in my case- STI Guns. My blaster is with a two chamber comp and two poppy holes instead of the SVI-like 6 holes in barrel (think it was tribrid). That is the kind of next generation modified-guns. In my opinion. It shoots very well in .40S&W with major... my dot stays in the lens of the C-More. I finished my way to the dark side....

124grs Hornady FM-ENC, 7,3grs Longshot and COL 1,22" (31mm) and CCI 500. Note: For IPSC a minimum bullet weight of 120grs is mandatory. I think for USPSA this weight is obsolete.

Well thanks so far... I actually load the 9Major to 1.16", with the 124grs bullets. I increase the length to 1.22" because of the longer bullet to keep the seating depth. Iam realy interested to find a load with the propellants I have at home.. Thinking about loads like: 5.8grs/6.1grs/6,3grs/6,5grs of Longshot. What do you think about that? Or should I try N340 for that purpose? Maybe 5grs for the 145? @JimmyM: The velocity for Major(165) will be 1140 f/s for the 145grs bullet, for the 124grs it has to be 1330 f/s. I think the feeling will be a little less than my Modified...

At the moment I am running Hornady 124grs FM-ENC with 7,6grs Longshot and a COL of 1,160". This is good for a good Major Faktor. The Dot stays in the lens of my C-More. Gun is a STI-Trubor 5". I also have a Modified Blaster which I am running with Frontier 165grs .401 Bullets and 7grs of N340 at 1,2" with a good Major Faktor. So much for the situation... My thoughts are: Why shouldn`t I use heavy bullets around 145grs in my Open Blaster. The Modi is kind of a pretty short open with .40 caliber... why do I use so light ones in my open and not in the modi? Has anybody here experiences with a Major Load with 145/147grs bullets and maybe N340 or Longshot for 9mm Major? I pretty much don`t know where to start but I really would like to try this because I am shooting the Modified as my main-gun and the Open for training and want to have kind of the same feeling shooting my babies... Thanks.... Benjamin
