the confirmation e-mails are going out. I got mine a little while ago.

Is it the mag release that's worn, or is it the locking groove on the right side of the grip. The tab on the locking screw engages this groove and locks the mag release into the grip.

Birmingham ain't "deep" south. Deep South is south of I-10. Welcome.

Wow! It just proves how good these Southern matches are getting.

A lot of the Louisiana shooters are working the match and shooting on Friday.

I made it. I guess I have quick fingers.

1.200 with Precision 185 grain coated bullets.

Everybody keeps telling me 9mm (and other autos) headspace on the case mouth. In around 1973 and older marine Master Gunnery Sergeant (in charge of weapons maint. Dept.) told me that the case will not go any more forward than the extractor lets if. He then proceed to display examples of .45 ACP cases from Winchester, Federal and Remington, along with military issue. He pulled the bullets and measured the case length with a micrometer. I was amazed at the variance in length of the cases, even from the same box. I do not remember the exact lengths, but the difference between the shortest and the longest was substantial by cartridge case dimensions. I am not an advocate for or against, but am merely providing information I came across.

Not if you cut the front of the slide.

Spanky, you and Will did such a great job. Even if ya'll had to wait for everyone in Squad 13 to return and re-shoot the stage.

I have the Beachcomber wagon, and also used it a the MS Classic. Not only are the big wheels an advantage, but the front wheels steer like a pallet jack. I have been using it for over a year now. I first saw one at the Heart of Dixie shootout in 2014, and bought one from amazon.com. We have overloaded it for matches with ammo and gear for three shooters with no problems.

I have been trying to get the mixture of cow pies and mud off my shoes and cart for two hours now. It requires high pressure water, a screwdriver and a hammer. LOL. I shot like crap, as usual, but had a pretty good time. I am glad I did not have to shoot Sunday as I was still pretty whupped from Saturday.

Yep, I see it, but I've got a dirty mind too.

Another vote for Gunsta. Our local group has purchased a bunch of them and I really like them.

I know why this method of archery was forgotten: FIREARMS!

You got that right, Sarge. I saw the movie SWAT in a theater full of cops and you almost couldn't hear over the screams of bulls---. The only thing we all agreed on was when Hondo said, "You only roll in John Woo movies."

Sarge, I think it looks great like it is.

Everybody (almost) on this site would notice the trigger pull thing, but most of the public would not know he squeezed the trigger without the exaggerated "pull." Probably same for the recoil.

Yeah, but the book is pretty good all the same.

You are correct. It was originally Julie. I have been reading this series since it began, and there are several other "errors" that made it past the proofreaders. Or as Mr. Hunter comments in one of his writings, e-mail stephenhunterdoesnotcare.com. I thought that was kind of funny. Good books though, mostly gun accurate with some small errors.

I have no idea. They are both like the two different gunsmiths set them. They are not light, not heavy and seem just right.

Hey Duy, got mine in.

do not know the length or size, but I have ordered trigger parts from SVI directly, and their website list the overtravel screw for $0.75 each. Gerald

The magnetic mag holders are great for holding a can of spray paint at Steel Challenge matches.

Try Stephen Hunter. He wrote flight of the Intruder. Also David Morrell, the author of First Blood (Rambo). Book is way better than the movie, and Rambo way more interesting.
