Vinnie is going to tear you a new one, car loan guy

Wow that's an excellent summary.

Kimbertarget, when you get a chance, show me someone who finished in the top 50 in Single Stack Nationals with a scandium or titanium frame. Any year would be fine. And since you asked - I have a Masters degree in engineering. I've learned a little about materials on the way.

I second that. Kimbertarget, you are making an ass out of yourself.

I'm not an IDPA shooter but I just picked up a Para Pro Comp 40S&W for USPSA Single Stack. It's a lot of gun for the money, and Para just announced the Pro Comp in 9mm. I'd look into that based on what I've seen from the 40 model.

Carmoney he's a COLT fan, and I'm sure Colt hasn't even heard of MIM.

Let's face it though. Give Stoeger, Mink, or a number of other people about any factory 9mm - let's say a Ruger SR9 to pick an obnoxious example - and they would still demolish almost anyone reading this thread, certainly myself included. I have an Accu Shadow and it's a great gun, but it's not magic.

If Les Pepperoni says it's good then you know it's good!

I assume in some cases it's to help make weight. I have a single stack gun with a long square dustcover and a square trigger guard - I'm not sure it would make weight if it were not tri-topped.

Might check Automatic Accuracy. I believe they have one left.

I agree. I know Akai's Master series single stack guns have both the trigger guard and dustcover square, and one of those won SS in Florida Open last year.

I think the square dust cover is perfectly legal. If it's not, a lot of big matches have been won by people using them.

The Sentry is also a forged frame, for whatever that's worth.

No, he wants a COLT not a Colt

An A class sponsored shooter? Very impressive!

I think by Sc he means Scandium. Not sure where he gets these ideas from.

I have no expertise on this, but I'd be concerned the plating might chip if it wasn't continuous (covering the whole part)

The rest of us call that an undercut trigger guard.

Ignoring some of what you said, I'd look hard at the new Para Pro Comp. Get it, have a trigger job done, and still be within your budget. Seems hard to vest if you think age can handle a .40

-6 here today.

I've taken one of Todd's classes. What I remember is him teaching the press out for two reasons. First, so that you can get the sights aligned before the gun is at full extension. Following on that, the second reason is so you can start squeezing the trigger (safely) before the gun is fully extended. He said all of this was developed when double action pistols were the standard. I only did the press out when we were specifically doing press outs, and he politely ignored that I used a "normal" draw the rest of the class.

That's kind of where I'm at. I want footage of myself for analysis. I don't want to bother others. I'm thinking with multiple stationary GoPros I can capture the complete stage and then splice the multiple videos together. With a remote I can start the cameras as I walk up to the start position. But the biggest dilemma is that I don't want to distract anyone else.

Yes. If they are sold as a catalogued item available through Glock's distributors. And if they certify that 2000 of them have been sold, and that they are generally available to the public.

Glad we are on the same page, since the AccuShadow is sold through CZ-USA http://www.cz-usa.com/products/view/CZ75SP-01Accu-Shadow/
