SSP- MA
SSR- MA
ESR- EX
ESP- EX
Now CDP- MA.
By way of the MVSA regional.
Did it while chasing a DM but still got beat my him
-
ESP only, simply because it is a permanent modification.
Friend of mine in the Memphis area had it done and HQ ruled it ESP
-
10+1 for me. I like dumping the 11th round, because it makes Bill Wilson cry.
See, I like 9+1 that way I get to explain to every SO that it is indeed legal to shoot with 9 round mags in ESP and no they can't give me a PE for it.
Oh, you're THAT guy....
Don't be that guy

No, I'm not shooting CDP this year....

score another vote for the 460 smith, I have the standard 8 3/8 in gun and iron sight hits a 200 yds are easy with hornady ammo.

In the years I have been involved with IDPA, my experience has been one of the biggest things that weigh on the Match Directors(at least the ones I know) is how do
they make fair it for their SO and Staff crew.
I have seen many approaches to this from bringing in Master class shooters to run the SO's, to running a split SO day allowing only the CSO and SO to run the timer
for there stage. I have volunteered to bring an out of town crew in to run the local SO's through at some troubled matches in my area. I have also shot matches that
were run by an out of town crew as well.
As far as the sour grapes aspect and not performing well at a match you are SOing, practice always helps. Take a moment for yourself when you're on deck clear
your mind then shoot to the best of your ability.
The SO advantage the great debate. I have shot and worked 8 National Championships and 1 World Championship(7 of these as a CSO) and I am always proud to
see the number of SOs who get to take home a trophy, this is not because they had a benefit by shooting the day before the regular competitors, being called looser by
the other SOs(I promise you this, we get called harder)or the occasional re-shoot for stage adjustment. It is because they are the most dedicated group of people
that are more worried about the shooters they will see the next day than about how they themselves are going to perform.
Just imagine how well these people could perform if they weren't working for the competitors sake, and for love of the sport.

no
No more than 25 percent per stage and no more that 10 percent for the whole match can be steel

Confirmation e-mail today, Squad 14 Friday Morning and Saturday afternoon.
Can't wait for June

I am shooting ESR again this year,
also bringing a friend shooting SSR, with of all things a Python.

+1 to Jane. She nailed that ruling. Actual slide locking back is not required for a "slide lock" reload. Just make sure you count well and when you slam a new mag into the gun and manually cycle the slide, that an unfired round doesn't come flying out the ejection port. If you fire your next round before you pick that round up from the ground you get a 3 second "bonus score". If you do count well, you're GTG.

Actually, if you do have a round come out when you rack the slide then you would need to pick up the dropped magazine, NOT the ejected live round, before firing your next shot. Otherwise you will have performed a speed-reload which is not IDPA-legal and would earn you a 3-second PE.
--Lin
Unfortunately regardless if you pick up the round or the empty magazine you have still done a speed load(not an approved IDPA reload) and will still receive a procedural per Robert Ray.

19 Hands down.... K-frames win. Just sayin....
+1 for the K frame, with the reduced PF it should be fine.
Don't know that I would chamfer a recessed gun though.
By the way good buy, from the pic the gun looks great
-
if you do reduce the engagement be sure to keep an eye on it since it will not take much wear to deactivate it at that point.
A gunsmith for a high end 1911 company let his wear to much and was DQed from the nationals a few years back

under ammunition carrier notes pg 32 of current IDPA rulebook
number 2
two full speedloaders/moonclips maybe worn directly in front of the holster and they must be positioned as close to the holster as possible.
one additional may be worn behind the centerline on either the right or left side for a total of three speedloader/moonclips on the belt
the rule addendum adds
addition to rule page 39
number 2 the speedloaders in front of the holster must be within 1 inch of each other and the one nearest the holster must be within 1 inch of the holster
the rule book and the addendum states speedloaders/moonclips, not carriers.
I use a modified double stack north mountain and wear only it in front of the holster with a single on my left side

i shoot 4.4 grs tite group with 158 berrys bullets figure for a reliable 132-135 pf out of a 4 inch smith mdl 15
-
that model 19 would be perfect for SSR in IDPA until you can afford a moonclip gun.
-
have a friend locally with a 686 SSR that has 4 out of 6 chambers larger than SAAMI maximum allowed spec
-

-

I shot both sports this weekend
IDPA is a little easier on the budget in the beginning, but can turn expensive if you try to shoot all divisions
But with Production and Single Stack USPSA is not much more expensive, just a couple more mags and pouches added to your IDPA rig and away you go.
Having shot IDPA for 10 years and dabbled in USPSA for most of that time I joined USPSA last year for a benefit revolver match and had a grand time and will continue my membership with both.

they still flop a little bit but it doesn't seem to affect accuracy any. The one on my 15 is so low that the hammer nose knocked a divot in it when we first put it on.
-
i can definitely second the weigand blade, I have one on 3 out of 5 of my smith revolvers, Mdl 15, 625, and 617 all with patridge front blades as well
-
I know of one person that was DQ’ed for having a series 80 slide on a series 70 pistol. With out the corresponding series 80 parts in the frame he had to remove them from the slide so the gun could fire.
Same goes for removing magazine disconnect safeties, even if you can buy the same model without it, you can’t remove it.
who might that be?
-
I had an old model 15 converted to the standard pinned in smith sight setup at S&W while the trigger stud was being replaced.
Just have them put a patridge blade in it, once you get it back do what you want with it.

I believe the world needs more lady revo shooters!
SSP Question
in IDPA Rules
Posted
as per current rules the hammer on your CZ must be fully down.
the CZ pistols that I have handled will not engage the safety with the hammer fully down, they will at half cock though.
The BD model CZ pistols lower the hammer to the half cock notch. This has been an ongoing deal within IDPA and hopefully will be dealt with by the TT.
All the traditional DA guns that I have handled that have a separate decock and safety variants have this issue.
