  1. I was just curious to see what most people have thier crimp set at.
  2. I'm sorry my tone was lost in the text. I did not mean to sound like I was bashing the match officials, they were really nice for the most part. I did not expect "special treament" I was just another shooter. I just wanted to point out that in order for the sport to grow quicker, they need to promote it to the younger shooters, like Tim said "Wow, only 1 junior at a Level 3 match is not just sad- that is scary!" < thats not good ETA- and I orginally posted to point that out and because I did not uderstand that they did not use classification.
  3. Was this match held in Sweden? If that was the case, perhaps the other shooters were shy about speaking to you in english, given that it is not their native language? I understand swedish and can almost speak it fuently and i can understand norwegen too... they we're just stuck up for some reason... the guy who had sponsored me the gun came to tell me later though that the ones who dont talk are also some of the better shooters here and they think to highly of themselves sometimes... Classes are meaningless in IPSC. You compete head to head in your division. Also, IPSC requires at least 5 competitors in a category before it is recognized.Later,ChuckChuck, i am not sure when you got that ideal from but we use classes in IPSC and there is even their own classifier systems called ICS. yes i thought they used classification too it was just wierd i wasnt bumbed about the awards. I know that with the borrowed gun(no exp with it or 38s before either) i didnt shoot every stage, if any, to the best of my obilities. The main thing i wanted to point out was the lack of promotion of the sport to the kids, i know several of the people walking around the range watching had shot the prematch and now had brought their kids with them... One who i managed to have a chance to talk to was 16! < why doesnt dad bring him out to shoot?!?! all I'm saying is they need to really promote better and the match director does need to be talking to a junior and as soon as he sees a way out of it leave while im talking to him...
  4. Also I'm only 18yo and only looking to lose alittle weight so I wont be on the program for very long and then once i start college I'll only be using the rec center and biking, dropping the insanity.
  5. Adding this to my signature line +1 great line
  6. I trained with Matt Burkett and have gone up nearly 2 classes in 2 months
  7. Thank you guys a friend got insanity and we're going to try it... I've also added windsprints, biking, and pullup/situp to my excersize
  8. Classes are meaningless in IPSC. You compete head to head in your division. Also, IPSC requires at least 5 competitors in a category before it is recognized.Later,Chuck Thank You for that explination1 no one could give a real good reason like that they just shruged it off ya but its not as fun for juniors the way they seemed to treat me I wouldnt really want to come back... Only a few people on my squad would even talk to me, one was swedish but had lived &started shooting in the states and the other was from norway... one of the RO's seemed to have it out for me and the md was full of himself... O.o I believe they really need to make it fun for the juniors since the sport is official in the country as of this year and has only managed to double in 4 years. Better sportsmanship is a must and better promotion. I did get a reshoot on the stage with the RO that was being difficult and the squad following mine was really nice they even clapped after i finished the stage! thats how they all should be!
  9. http://www.predatortactical.com/Custom-Shotguns-c40/ thats what I'm most likely getting Sorry theres no pic yet we haven't gotten that far ut i believe it'll be factory looking
  10. Ok another question pertaining to this... a classifier score got entered wrong... how do i correct that?
  11. So this weekend I just shot my first international IPSC match it was a lvl3 match, supposedly. I was one of the few shooters with a classification. Why don't they use/update classification here? Oh and I was the only junior shooter however the fact that a junior shot the match (and did Very well for having never shot the borrowed Open gun) was never even mentioned in the awards ceremony :/ NOT a good way to grow the sport!
  12. +1 for grip stippling! and have the front under cut stippled too.

  13. Well i live right over in ohio and while its flat here the weather sucks. I recomend investing in a good "trainer" that way you can set your bike up inside during cold and rainy months. Also you aviod the hills the second link is to one type that I've never tried but I've seen them and i think if i had more room I'd get one http://www.google.com/search?q=bike+trainer&tbm=shop&hl=en&aq=4&oq=bike+ http://bicyclesource.us/product/cycleops-pvc-rollers-bicycle-resistence-trainer-bike-roller-9500-41032-1.htm
  14. I use LaSportiva http://www.zappos.com/la-sportiva-crosslite-black however I am going to try the five-fingers my friends pair were great for running
  15. Doesn't have to be 5, just however many you compete with. I probably should have thought of that, oh well. Excellent! I thought it was a fun little challenge to add in a little bit of pressure and see what happened HAHA ya i was gonna say i only have 3... O.o but I'll get a vid ASAP just got 3 new DAA race master mag pouches so imma be practicing alot
  16. i read the post too. If you spray a little DCL in the comp it's supposed to keep the build-up loose to clean it easily
  17. does Wilmore only have one a year or are there more??? I would come but I'll be out of the country
  18. 59.57% < WTF I tried to get it fixed but one of my scores got entered wrong as alpha/mike instead of the 2 alpha the RO called the 56.1308 was actually 79.9860%... and then a few from the local clubs didnt get in on time... I should move way up next time
  19. hmmmm well I'll be in lexington in 2 weeks any around there? Cool hopefully ill make that
  20. Just wanting to get into 3gun and I live in NE Ohio without many options for 3gun matches in my area. So I was hoping we could put together a list of matches in this region thanks in advance 1st: Pardoe Sportsmans club
