Look at Glockworx Game Changer G34 comp and slide top end. It is what KC Eusebio will be shooting in 9Major open.
Do you have a link? Tried searching but coouldn't find this type of set up.
Thanks,

LASIK
in What I Like
So I got hit by a semi truck on my bicycle last year and received about a $10k settlement after paying the lawyer and other things (I suffered a separated shoulder and my collar bone sticks up. It'll never look the same but after my cortisone shot, I have had no significant pain after that). I am going to save the remainder of the money, but I spent some of it getting LASIK surgery yesterday.
The gift of sight is something so amazing that those of you who have never had to wear glasses or contacts might have a hard time understanding. But for me, I was -7 in one eye and -6 in the other, which meant even if you stood 6 feet away from me or so, I couldn't tell if you were a man or a woman unless you had a full beard or some immediately otherwise identifying feature.
The fact that there exists a procedure that takes less than a half hour and can liberate the person from their glasses, at least from nearsightedness, for life, is so amazing that I can't even put it into words.
This weekend, I will be shooting the Indiana state USPSA match with my new eyes. They might be a little irritated, but I can assure you, that I don't think I've ever seen this well. I have worn glasses since second grade, and just 11 hours after my surgery, I can read the computer screen, drive, etc., without the need of any vision correction at all.
If any of you are thinking about doing this, but are scared or anxious about the process, DO IT ANYWAY! There was basically no significant pain or serious discomfort for me, and it was over and I was walking out of there with my new eyes in less than a half hour.
I was at a match last weekend and talked to a number of other shooters who actually had the surgery or were thinking about it. If you can afford it, DO IT.
This is just so amazing that I can't put it into words. The gift of sight is so taken for granted by those who have it.
I don't know if the doctor told you about limitations but when I had mine done, the doctor said to take it easy for a month, no swimming, no exercises (strain), no heavy lifting and use sunglasses when out in the sun. I didn't go shooting until after a month and man, what a difference...I had mine done 2 years ago and it is one of the best things that happened to me...

I'll second the kodak playsport...easy to teach anybody..just tell them to push one button to record...For my head cam, I use a contour roam...pretty good also because you can attach them to your ear muffs and also just slide the switch to record, slide back to stop..

a swinging Texas Star?????????????????
Yeah,,,,that seems to be getting a little extreme.
Man...what else are they going to come up with next?

Man, I really like to look of this open glock..how does it shoot?
-
Use normal household vinegar. It removes lead deposits on the CMore window as well.
Cool...the vinegar works like a charm...now my cmore is like brand new...

Agreed. Open Glock is the best thing since sliced bread for 3 gun.
The Schuemann barrel is great for minor and is not hard to keep running and is super soft and flat to shoot.
Here's mine...
Hello sb3,
Can you tell me who worked on your slide and fitted the barrel? Looks cool...does it shoot factory ammo? how light is your recoil spring to make it run? thanks..
Glockworx did the milling for me and I can say that the fit and finish is stellar. It is really beautiful work (as much as a glock can be) It will shoot factory ammo all day long but every gun will run better on a good specific reload. I'm running an 11# recoil spring on it but it functions reliably on a 14# as well. I just liked the feel of the 11# better. The huge plus to this system is its not finicky, as comped pistols can sometimes be. It runs well on minor pf ammo and is very accurate , shoots softly and is small and quick. It will also run 9 major pretty well. It hits your palm a little harder with major ammo than a 2011 comped open gun but there is almost no flip. Surpisingly, the porting on the Schuemann loses very little velocity and of course works even better when you throw more gas to it.
I have ben very pleased with the deltapoint as well. I labored over the decision on what sighting system to use for this project, but the deltapoint is an obvious winner. It aligns well with where the factory sights would be and enables you to find the dot quite instinctively. Its bright in daylight and the 3.5 moa dot is more like a 6moa cmore and the glass is incredibly clear. With the inherently looser slide to frame fit of polymer guns(Glocks especially) a slide mounted optic is great and holds better accuracy than I have seen with frame mounted solutions. On top of this, the ability to use factory shaped kydex holsters is a big plus for 3 gun.
All in all I am extremely pleased with the results and while a comped gun will be inherently softer to shoot, this setup is just plain flat and fast. After all we are talking about minor PF ammo and if 9 minor isn't soft enough for you I think there may be bigger issues. I'm sure this isn't for everyone but its working great for me, so I thought I would share my findings. Hope this is helpful for someone.
Thanks for the info...will check it out..

Have you all noticed also that the seals were not shooting full auto...seems like semi auto with 2 in the body and one in the head...they make sure that the bad guys are dead...well except for the mini-gun scene...cool!
-
All I can say is "wow" too...this movie is one of my favorites and can't wait for the blu ray to come out...
-
Yup, I'm a lefty too and shoot a buckmark at steel challenge matches. I just start at low ready, safety off and trigger finger out...

Hello Rick,
Got a question from a friend and I didn't even know about it until he asked...Do we need to be a member of SCSA to shoot the match?
-
Now, I will definitely watch this...
-
good, because after spending that much time on the belt sander, all the info is long gone! Plus it's shinyyyyyy!!!!!
oh yeah, and I pulled out the 80 series junk, lightened the trigger, ripped out the sights and made a dovetail racker for it. Also made 5 mag bumpers to go with the new magwell (and removed mag safety) Just have to machine the 90* cmore mount, as well as make a comp from stock and we'll be in good shape!
Pictures please...I am planning on getting a Colt 1911 22 to set up for steel challenge also...I want to check on how your are going to install a comp...
BTW, which parts are aluminum on your gun? both frame and slide?
