I once borrowed a friend's open gun with an SV safety. I broke it within 100rds. Another local friend has broken several SVV thumb safeties.

The cake is a lie.

have to buy new mags and trying to talk myself into a new gun....kevinm, I also don't understand why you don't just load your existing 40 to Minor and try it. Reloading for 40 is peanuts more than reloading for 9mm, and you get the benfit of using the same gun for both. Currently I use 180gr bullets and load to 144PF and 172PF. Both shoot to the same POI. To top it off, my 144PF 40 loads shoot softer than similar 9mm loads.
I have a really nice 9mm 1911 about to go on the sales block.....just sayin'

The hammer doesn't change the reset.
The 1-piece sear is the biggest difference maker. If you know some one who knows how to tune them, it can be made 1911 short.
The disco doesn't shorten the reset, only the pre travel after the reset point.
The hammer absolutely reduces reset distance. Shorter hammer hooks = shorter reset (given properly adjusted pre and post travel)
True, but the hook depth on the OEM heart hammer and the Titan hammer is negligible. Ergo, no appreciable difference. At least not in the handful I've worked on.

I've been shooting SS minor all season. I doubt I'll go back to major. 9mm 1911s are just too much fun.
The only time I'd want major is for classifiers, but if my math is right, I won't even care about those anymore after the next update.

Rob?Hi Allen!
That's me!

Tripps 9 mags are nice, but not perfect. They run really well in terms of feeding and whatnot, but On many guns, the lack of a wall on the front of the mag allows the top round to be dragged forward as the gun cycles, which then causes the mag not to drop free.
They'll also allow the top round to pop out when they hit the deck.
-
Cut 2 coils off the springs in the ETM. Then they'll seat easily, and still have plenty of strength to feed and lock the slide back.
It'll also correct the feeding issue caused by the mags being entirely over sprung.

I'm not ruling out the RO just a little disappointed that SA seems to have dropped the Loaded in 9mm. The RO would actually save me about $150.
Something to keep in mind is that the 9mms tend to be heavier and you may need to swap some parts to get it to make weight.

Everything is proceeding as I have forseen. lulz
but statistics are dumb.

Make no sense to get it. The hard chrome is a better finish and you can get all the EG parts for a couple hundred bucks total
This.
All xtremed up. Except the FP, because the Henning pin works better than the xtreme pin.

For the record, the ft. Wayne team has some of the best club match stages I've ever seen. Interesting mix of shot difficulties with options!
Definitely not a boring 8-8-8-8 kind of match.
Well worth the 2 hour drive for me.

I thought IPSC production allowed 15?

It was good shooting with you!
It was not good for me to see an open gun that runs, though. That looks like more fun than should be legal.

Why not elect someone who promises to change it? Your membership dues entitle you to a say, however minor and insignificant.
But i suppose when they say one thing and then do a another self-dealing thing with no practical mechanism for removal, whachya gonna do?
Volunteer to do scores! because that will change the incompetence and/or corruption at HQ. Running that practiscore report really keeps those guys in WA in line.

My stock 2 came with a 2-piece in it. Is there somewhere stateside i could get a 1-piece that preserves the firing pin block functionality?

I've been trying to figure out what is different or special about his LSPA block that keeps getting mentioned.
Despite all the mentions, I haven't seen anything explaining how this LSPA block is different from the stock parts.
Google pointed me to this thread, and would like to bump the OPs question about it.

What specifically makes you think the organization is corrupt?My USPSA dues are up in July. Thinking about dropping membership all together. What's the point in supporting a corrupt organization? I pretty much only shoot locals anyways.
Having a section coordinator and former bod member thank the cheater for rendering a bunch of major matches meaningless isn't proof that the whole organization is corrupt, but it's certainly not confidence inspiring either.

I agree 100%All I know is that some of the supporters comments have made me question the integrity of the supporters
There was nothing honorable about his weak apology. "Shortcoming" does not come close to equaling overt cheating.
I'd be embarrassed to be associated with the guy, and I surely wouldn't try to go to bat for him by posting supportive statements.
I certainly would not shoot any matches run by people that publicly support a blatant cheater either. To me, willfully turning a blind eye to overwhelming evidence of cheating indicates a serious ethical shortcoming
If you're willing to support the guy after everyone knows he's a cheater, you'll probably support (or have supported) him while he cheats as well.

Seeing the last split is part of verifying the time. If hendrix were a smart cheater, he'd have just given the timer a little tap after a few seconds had gone by, or held it somewhat close to the gun at ULSC to get the slide snapping shut to register a time, to screw the people he didn't like, and could then say "I just read the timer!" with plausible deniability.
Classifier Updates
in Match Scoring
Posted
I ran into this very same issue this weekend using an ipad master, 1.667.
The android slave device were able to successfully update the classifications though.
