  1. John, the G34 is not IPSC production division legal.
  2. Sherlock, Nice post. It's always good to find out stuff yourself. That's what Brian and Rob (and most of the other great shooters) did. I think it's "the way" of really improving. You can read Brian's book over and over, but it's only a bunch of words until you start to understand and see for yourself. Thanks, Björn
  3. Erik, you're assumptions are correct. And as far as checking the list goes: it's not very clear (at least to me). I would not assume that model Tanfoglio T95 Stock is the same as the model they advertise as "Stock". Especially since there are so many models on the list.
  4. ...........................and would you kindly remove your gun from my forehead
  5. AFAIK, the guy that finished 2nd in to Dave Sevigny in the last World Shoot, shot a Tanfo Stock. This gun was designed for PD. But...I'll wait until Darth has his saying in this. Bjorn
  6. "If you think 5 seconds is fast, you will never be faster than that" Isn't that (or something like that), what Rob Leatham says in the foreword of Brian's book. That little sentence grasped me the first time I read it. Very cool story Ron.

    What I Like.

    Hi Henny, So...the dutch mafia is expanding This place is about SHOOTING (and then some). It's crammed with info. I doubt I would have improved on skill and mental ability as fast if I hadn't joined the boards back in 2001. Enjoy! Regard, Björn Dietrich

    My Open Gun

    That's a very clean setup. I like it.
  9. LMAO, I knew when I wrote that down it was completely stupid I meant to say she had a "different kind" of temper. The kind that makes you call 911 when you're about to disagree with her
  10. Spook, I guess you live in the wrong country then. Move to Italy man! Skywalker, my last girlfriend was Italian. Loved her, but she had quite a temper though

    Reloading

    Viggen, the high ready is a position in which you have the gun fairly close to your body (pointing forward and up at about 45 deg), and have a visual of the front sight on the target (so the front sight is already on target or very close). As you push the gun to the target, the front sight stays on the target and the rear sight appears. Basically the FS moves in a straight line towards the target and the RS raises to FS height to provide a nice Sight Picture. I'm not loading very low or high. Somewhere just above belt level. Skywalker, I'm still envious, because I HAVE to reload 3 times as many as you do
  12. http://www.robleatham.com/libraryrldc/pict...or/egretweb.gif No, I'm not
  13. Hm, I wonder why Eric Grauffel still uses the stuff

    Reloading

    I like that one too. It saves lots of time. BTW, should we move this to our own pretty little revolver forum? Moderator? Mover480, 1.35s for a revolver reload is AWESOME!
  15. Thought you might say something like like that Spook, you're "way" younger than I am, get your priorities straight (I noticed the P7 too, but you shouldn't have ) Well, a nice custom hard chromed P7 gets my attention anytime. And I guess I'm just a little picky when it comes to women (I don't like blondes )
  16. kdj, I recall having had the same problem with my P7M13. I think it happened most when it got really hot, or when I overlubed it. You might want to try the P7 forum on: www.parkcitiestactical.com Good luck Björn

    Reloading

    Bubber, for closing the gun, I do the following (I started out using my palm too, but it slowed me down considerably): 1) I insert the clip 2) As soon as the clip is in completely, the gun cants to the strong hand side (making the cylinder "fall" back into the frame window) 3) at the same time, the thumb of my weak hand pushes the cylinder in, while assuming the shooting position on the gun (it's already there, so it's easy to do) 4) Gun cants back and into high ready Big time saver I think, but it depends on where your thumbs are during the shooting.

    Reloading

    Thanks guys. Well, I did three or four in 1.61 - 1.68, but that doesn't count, does it? Anyhoo, I'm going for sub 1.5 seconds! Bill, I'm still trying to figure out which way of reloading is the fastest. Jerry M is very fast with the transfer-reload, but I've always thought of the last part (transferring the gun back into the strong hand and bringing the gun back on the target) was the weak point of that way of reloading. The weak point of the strong hand reload is obviously that there's a gap between dumping the old clip and putting the new one in. I've found that the best way of reducing this gap is to use your weak hand thumb instead of your weak hald palm to push the ejector rod. BTW, do you guys know what the time on his all time fastest reload was? I recall it was somewhere in the 1.4 area?
  19. Is that a poster from "back in the days", when you were young and "needed the money"? If not, please elobarate.

    Reloading

    Just came back from the range. I hit a friggin' 1.58 second reload today (with the trusty old S&W 625 six shooter) It kinda made me happy, so I thought I'd better share it (or.....brag a little ) BTW, I use the "keep-the-gun-in-the-strong-hand" method. I've found that practicing the high ready in dry fire extensively really improves the shot to shot time in a reload. I got to the point where I thought I couldn't go any faster (had the new moonclip in before the old one hit the ground). So I had to focus on other stuff. Flexmoney's thread about the perfect reload made me realize that the part after the new ammo is in, is often overlooked. So I started to work on that.....and I guess it works. My splits still suck, though
  21. "Early"...? Who said anything about "early"?
  22. Mostly money. It made Bill Gates a billionaire. Others are just other losers looking for attention.
