  1. Matt Cheely always in the tech sections helping people diagnose problems and help people get the most out of their gun, loads, runs, techniques.
  2. God knows if I tried to keep any shooting trophies at work I would be called "creepy" and asked to remove them.... stupid government jobs...
  3. Can't wait to see how my new one turns out!!! Sweet pistole Adarn!!!
  4. and STI is the grip only, no MSH or anything, just the grip a roonie...
  5. shoulda hooked her up for reckless driving!
  6. word on the street is there are few in the whole wide world that do a finer trigger than Rich.... The only downside I can see is the slightly shorter sight radius
  7. If the grip is too small you could build it up with some clay or something??? Saul Kirsch does that to get the right grip shape for his hand. SVI offers one plastic grip size, they do offer different size grips in the metal type but they are nearly half the cost of your shiney new edge
  8. I have that whole video on my puter at home. It is either Czech or something, I forget who. The dogs that they train are on the hairy edge the whole time. At one point during a training excercise the handler exectues a successful OUT command and then the K9 turns and starts biting him, it is pretty nuts.
  9. absolutely! A custom gun does a couple things for you. First of all if you have one built by a reputable smith then it gives you the piece of mind to know that your shiz is going to run like a hose. I have found in the very short time I have been involved in this sport that it is similar to other physical/mental sports like tennis, golf and things of that nature, 99% mental and 1% other shtuff. So, if you have a high-quality custom that runs then you don't have that extra facet of your game to worry about, you can focus on the sights lifting and calling your shots. Pride in ownership is a little one for some people but I like showing stuff off. I work hard and like to spend my money on stuff that makes me feel good about all the work. Custom guns do that more for me than a stock gun. You can make GM with a bone stock Edge I would bet but it is more fun to do it with some bling in your hand. These guns aren't tools for me, they are art and they represent the fine people that build them and I like to rock the cool shiz!!!! You can't shoot a cowboy with a bent arrow so it about the arrow, sometimes as much as it is the injun. isaac
  10. the trojan will feed long ammo just fine.

    Maku mozo!

    today's was/is dynamite!!! When you're betting for stones in an archery contest, you shoot with skill. When you're betting for fancy belt buckles, you worry about your aim. And when you're betting for real gold, you're a nervous wreck. Your skill is the same in all three cases - but because one prize means more to you than another, you let outside concerns weigh on your mind. He who looks too hard at the outside gets clumsy on the inside. -Chuang Tzu
  12. a used one with two mags just went for 700 on arfcom, now that the supply is about 200k guns behind the demand the prices on glocks are going up up up.... I wish I had my 34 back....
  13. or just buy the 5" caspian that Jim Anglin is selling on USPSA classifieds. 1650 with 5 mags, chrome, full custom
  14. +143091340 Grams, I dropped in grams +4mm pads and his spring follower kits and got 20 reloadable without having to touch a thing.
  15. you've accomplished one of the most important things in making it appear like you have nothing back there with the back door closed(looks like a 4runner interior) so I think Vault is a great word for it
  16. Able Ammo has M2 fields in all three lengths in stock...
  17. any word from customs on whether or not the Ultra's are going to be released?
  18. why not just spin the comp off when you go coyote huntin'? That is what I have done in the past with my MSTN brake. Just spin it off and put a thread protector on and away you go.
  19. the best I have found are the Tanel turfs. They make them in a high-top and after you break them in a little bit they are the most comfortable shoes I own. Because of the design of the sole the cleats do not dig in nearly as much as a nike shark (football cleat) or something similar to that. I wear these year round for softball and will wear them for USPSA now. http://www.tanel360.net/catalog/product_in...products_id=334 if you click on the TECHNOLOGY information thingy below the picture you can see what the sole looks like. They are the bee's knees Isaac
  20. Henry is a GREAT American company, built in the USA and the only firearms manufacturer that I know of where the CEO himself answers the emails and what not. Great great company to deal with.
  21. plus 1000, competition with friends and peers is awesome and the smell of a slow-cooked roast when you get home is comforting smells like.... victory!
  22. I got into this habit a little when I was being coached through a bunch of drills on 5 and 7yd shots. I found that while I am not to the point of seeing sights lift, I do get better hits(higher and more centralized "groups") when I am focusing on my front sight with the target in the periphery. Lowly unclassified shooter, Isaac
  23. I don't have anything really helpful to add to this discussion at this point but I have been shooting A LOT in the last few weeks. Whilst I am not paying 100% attention to my grip I have noticed that I am closer to equal pressure in both hands. This still allows me to manipulate the trigger and get what I consider to be fast splits. I tried the full supporting hand wrist-crank and a more natural position and the more natural position imparts less "steering" on the gun. With practice I am sure it is possible to get my grip to a point where I can do the wrist-crank and not drive the gun wacky with it. I am not getting any forearm pump or any other side effects from how hard I am gripping the gun so I am pretty comfortable with where I am. Just an update Isaac
