i was considering the different ways you would position your legs and feet when shooting at targets from the cover of a barrel or barricade in a crouched position. if whatever side you are presenting to, do you tend to put your knee down on that side so as to provide the best stabile shooting platform? such as the first drill in this video? i was thinking this is the most efficient way but eh

lol what kind of horrible malfs did you have happen to that pistol? were those cases oversized?

why do you clean primer pockets

yeah it doesnt matter what PF you are shooting really, i think the 14lb spring helps the gun dip less after recoiling it seems to shoot flatter for me

i've used a number of 124g 9mm round nose Rainier bullets and ive put them on a digital scale and they seem to weigh 1-1.5 grains lighter than advertised. have you weighed any other calibers or bullet weights from this manufacturer? is this a consistent trend? for comparison ive used Remmington 124g RN and they tend to weigh in around 124.7-125g then MG 124g weigh in really close to 124g maybe off by a couple tenths or so.

'A' in production for now

notice the number of cases getting ejected each time the trigger is pulled http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL7RQ-WRmxk&feature=grec_index

thanks. i will

XDM. yes good choice.

dude i love classifier matches cause your shootin a bunch of classifiers and your all warmed up and stuff PIMP MY CLASS

ill record those matches with the contour hd pov cam and smack a video together with some music and i can watch it over and over kind of helps with familiarization of ranges/stages/setups and visualizing myself shooting well.

i dont get this whole connundrum with not making minor/major and why its even an issue. just put more damn powder in the case. boom. problem solved.

yeah this is a pretty cool forum with a good collection of different brains in it

yeah, it is kind of sad. but this is more sad:

you gonna shoot the m&p at that IDPA state match?

i'd try painting your front sight red

you kind of like this dude? oh man you should have seen me at this last match the range was situated in this area where theres a bunch of trees and stuff so theres no wind but then you still got the sun beatin down on you, i was like a fountain of sweat i probably went from 165lbs to 155lbs during the course of the day. lol

just do the math in your head on how to get the best hit factor for a given stage. if your brain likes math, then you will know how fast you need to be.

could paint the front sight red or something too. little bit cheaper

i lick my damn chops whenever i see a plate rack in a stage da-ding-ding-ding-a-cling

ive had one of these on the front for a long time: http://www.dawsonprecision.com/ProductDetail.jsp?LISTID=2500000-1094593470 i have used it with both red and green fiber, and then i have also tried no fiber and filled the front hole in with putty so i had black sights. ive gone back and forth between the factory rear sight (white dots blacked out) and a warren tactical rear sight with the .150 rear notch. i am tending towards the factory rear sight with either black front or thin red fiber up front

depends on the trigger kit you got. Im going to be the opposition here and coin the idea of doing it yourself, cause for one, yes you will save money, maybe not time...but you WILL save money, then you will learn that you actually CAN install accessories and parts on your pistol yourself and do a good job. i bought a powder river drop in trigger kit and have compared it to 2 other XDm pistols that both had trigger work done by a smith and my trigger that i put in myself was very comparable. If you are good with that stuff i'd say give it a try, just make sure that you got all the tools you need. punches/ screwdrivers/ tweezers/ file/ that kind of stuff but then on the downside if you screw it up you just wasted X amount of dollars, which can and will happen once ina while, and the upside of sending it to some dude to do it for you is your not worrying about borking your stuff. im pretty sure the reason alot of these guys stay in business is caus they do real good work

ive been getting to the point where im feeling more and more comfortable just dryfiring during the week and then doing most of the actual shooting just at matches

dude you dont know my apartment has a whole bunch of these printouts tacked up on all the walls. like....a bunch

im kind of blown away it seems like nobody makes a black serrated front sight for the XD that would match up with the Warren tactical rear sight . ive seen pictures of this sight setup and really It looks perfect what I REALLY want is that seveigny competition sight set that you see for the glocks except on my XDm. a .115x .215 black serrated front imo is perfect in size. it doesn’t make sense that the Warren rear sight WOULD be available for the XD while there is no matching front sight other than the factory front sight and that stupid Dawson Precision fiber optic sight .1x.160. I don’t want a fiber optic sight, I don’t want to JB weld or paint over my DP sight,.....I want a black serrated sight that is .115x.215 in dimension..NOBODY makes one to those dimensions FOR THE XD. I want it///functional AND fancy looking. Heini makes some of them SLANT PROS for the XD but honestly I didn’t really dig them THAT much I mean I like the height but the damn thing is just too fat and it still seems fat even when you got a .150 wide rear notch. that and I don’t think heini makes any front sights other than their signature FAT .125 wide front sight I know that DP makes black sights for the XD but 1. I think .285 is too damn tall and THEN I gotta buy some stupid $80-100 adjustable target rear sight. that will not do.
