    Stock II extractor

    in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)

    Posted

    Hello, everyone. I am the happy owner of a tanfoglio stock 2 xtreme. Unfortunately the extractor said enough. So I'm looking for a replacement. Here in my country, getting the original tanfoglio is going to take me time, and I don't want to be left without shooting for a few weeks. I can get the eemann tech for Shadow 1/2 or the original one for cz Shadow2. Do you know if either of these two will fit my gun? thank you

    Hello, my name is Hernan, I live in Argentina.
    A few years ago I shot IPSC, but I was losing interest a bit and gave up, now I have bought a more suitable pistol and I am interested in returning. I have to wait another month, since a shoulder surgery does not allow me to shoot until it is completely healed.
    Greetings to all

    Hi all, in a couple of weeks I will be traveling in Austin, I am Argentine, and in this land full auto weapons have only the security forces and the army. I've shot with FAL but only semiauto. I am a regular ipsc shooter with a glock 17. I would try a full auto rifle, if you know some gun range where I shoot allow some ar15, ak47 or similar I will thank.

    From the PAPLE in another forum:

    "Hubo un momento de esa tirada en la que el Ranger Master que era el que me iba colando en los stages, me dice deja que te voy empujando yo para no perder tiempo, mi respuesta joer, dejame recargar los cargadores por lo menos"

    Translate:

    "Im one stage the range master says me: let me push your wheelchair to save time, and my answer was: let me at least make my reload"

    Great person, awesome sportman.

    Sorry about my poor english.

    The format used it the 2009 match list thread rocked! Please follow it.

    If you have a match to add, just quote the previous list (best to then remove the quote tags) and add your match in...following the same format (month, date, url, and match name)

    This will be a member maintained list. (Don't ask the moderators to do the work...jump in and make it happen!)

    Perodically, ask a moderator to clean out the thread, if it gets too long with all the copy and paste action.

    I d´ont know how do that.I hope that someone could arrange it...

    Tendonitis - Any Suggestions

    in Handgun Techniques

    Posted

    Thanks for the MD's chipping in. I did seek professional medical advice but I was very disappointed in the direction that I given. That is why I started the post to see what the scope of cures or remedies were available out there from first hand experience.

    After 6-8 visits with the doctor (over a 18 month period) all I got was a shot, 2 visits to the rehab clinic/a couple of rubber bands and a little arm compression band. I was told to lay off from doing anything that hurt it (originally baseball and softball) and it might get better. I have done everything that I was advised to do but no results.

    Jerry told me that he had a surgery several years ago that removed a bit of material under the muscles in his forearm and that cured his issues.

    I tried to get a referral to specialist and she (my doctor) said it wasn't necessary although she has not been able to help me get better over the last two years. I guess some of the doctors don’t take it as a serious aliment.

    I have been taking fish oil, laying off all of the fun activities and even the not so fun ones. I wear an arm support (even at night) and take anti inflammatories. I am trying to incorporate the wrist curls as much as possible but back off if the pain comes back. I also have been montoring my diet but I normally do that anyway.

    All in all I feel a little better but don’t think that I am any closer to getting rid of the problem.

    I am the MD Sports Medicine guy with over 30 years experience with these types of probems.

    More of story comes out now, but here are.

    Key points

    2 years

    anatomic location not clear from post somewhere Shoulder or Elbow

    No response to conservative therapy

    Diagnosis unclear.

    Treated by non specialist ( a big RED FLAG)

    Diagnostic tests unknown.

    SO again I am not YOUR doc but at this point the proper recommendations are

    See a specialist and if not satisfied, see another one

    Make sure specialist gives you precise diagnosis in term of location and type

    For specialist to do this will probably require diagnostic testing which may be any where from Neck to Fingers in location. Types of Test might include MRI of primary or adjacent location, Xrays, or electrical tests.

    AFTER the above the treatment plan can be proposed.

    Since a lot of folks have made humerous suggestions and since your condition is chronic,I will say this, Fish Oil no matter what orifice you put it in will not fix you. But if you take enough by mouth you may need a silencer at the other end.

    Best wishes to Godzilla for a speedy recovery

    I Agree

    two years is too much time.

    ibuprofen is very good for fever, not for your problem.

    Buy some diclofenac, I use voltaren, some omeprazole (protect your stomac ), try 3 weeks, If you do not feel better, maybe you need a MRI ...You cannot live with pain

    Tendonitis - Any Suggestions

    Posted · Edited by nueces5

    I have been fighting tendonitis in my shoulder/elbow for the last two years and haven't been able to shake it. I got from playing too much softball and now it is affecting my ability to shoot and practice. The last two years I have been been a drain on shooting without being able to practice or maintain any consistancy.

    I have tried everything that has been suggested to me so far, anyone have any ideas to get rid of tendonitis?

    Hi, I am a general surgeon.

    I was a rock climber, had tendinitis.

    I did a treatment that today I it recommend to my patients.

    Voltaren (not other one) 50mg every 12 hs + omeprazolel 40 mg every day.

    The most important: absolute rest for 3 months The ice works better when it is ACUTE (in two weeks from start pain) someone kind of kinesiology, heat, laser, etc...

    Any ask, just do it

    Welcome, Whats the shooting scene in Argentina Like?

    10 years ago it was not necessary to register the reloading press and you can buy a pound of gunpowder for 10 u$s.

    Now, I have my press registered and they annotate every primer or gunpowder that I buy to three times more of cost.

    There are many laws as approval to withdraw all the weapon from the civilians.

    Really nice.

    Meanwhile I shoot so much I can.

    Hi everyone

    Mi name is Hernan, I`m from Argentina, and I `m a IPSC shooter, Glock 17 and Dillon 550 user.

    The 550 is great, faster than my older single station press.

    The question is:

    A friend wants to buy hornady LNL.

    Is it a good press?
