[My last Child graduating High School]

Congrats Kev! Me too except Xavier University

[What gun have you sold and regret it to this day...]

Colt Python 4" nickel plated - Mint

[Modifing 1911 grips to fit Techwear Magwell]

Thanks for sharing! Now to do this with a G10 mica grip.

[Plastic Barrels]

I'll have my guys start saving them for the club, however I will need pick up help.

I should be able to get a dozen or 2 before the match.

[So much for building an Open gun!]

That is what happened to my Vette and my bike, but after 20 years I am finally getting another bike!

Congrats!

[Custom Limited 2011]

I've had 2 SV and 1 Bedell built and all took less then 9 months and all were well worth the wait. I do strongly recommend buying a gun from someone who has been building them for a while. Just because someone is popular or knows how to shoot doesn't make them a qualified (read trained) gunsmith.

[Loading 9mm Costs per round]

I use VV powder and plated bullets and my cost is around .10 cent per round. You can go cheaper with powders and bullets and I know a GM that does and does well.

[$10K open vs $3K open gun]

Your original question was what makes a $10K Open gun better than a $3K gun - my guess is the person pulling the trigger. That of course could go in reverse, with the $3K gun being better.

Just my .02$

[Name My Vette]

HOSER

HAMERDN

[Favorite weight]

If your just plinking and not competing buy 115's you get more shots for you money!

[Stages and squad lists]

Thanks for the ride offers everyone, I'm set!

Cheers!

[Stages and squad lists]

Is it pretty easy to buy you way into someone rental car or should I just rent one of my own? This is my 1st National (Squad 17) and looking to split the car cost with someone shooting on the same time frame.

[Slide Rackers?]

I have both and prefer the ball dent. After the Open Nationals I will be converting my primary gun to a ball dent to hold the slide racker.

[What causes this?]

I had the exact problem and determined it was the extractor. I replaced the extractor in the middle of a match and the problem was gone!

[2 match's , same day at Warsaw, IN 10-10-10]

Too bad it is the weekend of Nationals!

Bedell Shorty for my load

[Case lube removal]

I tumble my loaded rounds in corn cob media for about 10 minutes to get the lube off. I then wipe the rounds down before storage.
