I use the Limcat. I like it but it does have to be "drawn" straight up or your screwed.
-
Bill, You have seen me shoot. Should not be long before she starts beating me. See you at Area 8. Not sure about the steel match yet.
-
Rob, same as always....Not a damn thing, I wouldn't want to loose my girlish figure I have worked so hard to build.
Chris.....only if the shelf was empty!
-
Yes that is funny Rob. Unfortunately not many folks. However, at least my shotgun works HA!

What ever you do you don’t want 16”. It will be very tough to make minor with it. I like 20”
-
What ever you get keep the Glock. Good house gun and you can use it down the road for production. I am partial to the Para's but I'm sure many here would point you another way. The nice thing about any high cap, even if you don't get highcap mags right away, is that you can shoot it in L10 or get mags later and shoot limited.
-
IMHO I don't think the effort would be worth it. As long as the dot is zeroed it should be fine.
-
Thanks guys. I like it.
Bill, I'm well, how are you? I'm going to start my oldest daughter, Jenna, shooting this year. It should be fun. She is a mature and very athletic 10 year old. She is a motivated kid and should do well. You should see us at some matches this year.

What does Mako mozo mean? I did a search but came up with squat. I can't be the first person to ask. Thanks.

Nick, sounds like a great choice. Good luck, I think you will be happy. When I bought mine JP had about a 2 month backlog. How long do you have to wait for your's?
-
One other thing, at this years 3 gun Nationals, JP by far the dominate rifle. It seemed to me that 1/2 the competitors there were shooting some type of JP AR. That should tell you something about his work.
-
To follow up on BamBam's comment. I am the "buddy" he refers to. His Grade one has some advantage over my Grade 2. His is less finicky about ammo than mine. Don't get me wrong. As long as you use the correct ammo it is flawless. The low mass bolt carrier is very sweet, and I think it does keep it flatter, but it will make the rifle more picky on what ammo it will feed. I would have no other AR than a JP, and I have a lot of rounds through a lot of different ARs. .....................YOU WILL BE HAPPY!!!!!

Smitty, I personally would not ever look at a stage regardless of the HF and decide to go so fast I will throw a miss (not that I don't do it, believe me I miss plenty). However, On a high HF stage I'll definitely speed up and accept more Cs and maybe a D or 2 if it is high enough. I am certainly no expert but have had a few moments of brilliance. When I'm really on my game I can tell weather on not my shot is an A or a C. Unfortunately most of the time I am not very sure. Misses and most Ds are the only thing I can usually call accurately and of course always try to make up a miss when I can.

Thanks

I agree with you 2 Alpha. I know a number of smiths and none of them are wealthy. As far as the laws go, we have no one to blame but our selves. There are over 50 million gun owners in the US and only 3.5 million members of the NRA. Sorry, don't mean to preach to the choir, but I bet there are people on this forum that are not members. The NRA may not be perfect but IMHO they are the main reason we still can shoot IPSC here in the USA.

That's correct. I use the Grams Pad. I only keep two set up for 21. It has to be a spring that is well broken in and a good follower. I never load them to 21 unless I need it. They are hard to seat so I would never reload into it.

Very cool. Where did you get the hand gaurd?
-
At this years 3 gun nationals in Vegas JPs guns had by far the most representation. I am nothing but thrilled with my Grade 2. You get what you pay for with JP.
-
I am aways faster with my dot, close in or far.
Nice gun.
-
I love my Para. 21+1 all day long without a hitch.
-
I have been playing this game for quite a while and been to many matches around the country. I have never seen nor heard of someone getting 33 in a legit tube. I use Para cut tube and can't get over 29. 27 is all I'm comfortable with for total reliability. I find 33 very hard to believe.

It's a lot worse here in Maryland. As of Jan 1 only a few manufactures can sell here because of a new law requiring integrated locks. Unless we get the law repealed new handgun sales are all but over here.

Stake shoot with each team using one pistol, shotgun, and rifle. lots-O-fun!
A favor from those with a Para
in 1911-style Pistols

I use a Limcat and all of my Paras work with it. As theotherErik said, you have to use the other insert.
