HI5-O

Hope the forecast holds. I’ll be the guy with the jacket and gloves on ?

Maybe some of that brass you collected was shot out of some 9 major open guns? I know some shooters who load used brass for lost brass matches.

What range is this match at?

Burden of proof is on the government ? I’m shooting Open so you can use my CZ Shadow 2 and mags. It’s been worked on and I like it, would like it better if I could see the sights better ?. Just bring your rig and ammo (I have ammo too).

I’m going to try the 8lb variable in my open gun. Now using a 9lb regular.

So Carry Optics is considered hi-cap and low-cap now? (that’s what Foley said) Glad to see nationals closer to the west side. Will definitely make the effort to attend in Utah.

Not quite all accurate. Out of state and coming to Hawaii you have to register firearm within 5 days of what arrives last (you or the gun). Registration requires you to complete forms regarding any criminal conviction for crimes of violence, any mental health issues, drug use, medical marijuana card holder, or anything that disqualifies you from owning or possessing firearms will cause issues. The Records section does a NICS check and warrant check which is typically quick, unless you have one. The firearm is not held unless you don’t qualify or if it is an “assault pistol”. There’s no “approved” pistol list. In 2016, Hawaii mandated person registering a firearm has to be registered in the “rapback” system which costs $42 (this is for out-of-state residents too). The only thing you are required to register is the firearm, don’t bring mags or ammo when registering (leave them in your room). Transporting requires the firearm to be unloaded, in a rigid container and only to-from, no side trips. Once the firearm is registered, it is considered registered in the state and do not need to be registered every time you come to visit. Also, once you pay for the “rapback” you don’t have to do it again for another firearm. Hope it’s more clear.

Why? $90 is why.

Hence, the Valdez aftermarket safety ?

I have 6 S2 10 rd mags if you want to use them. It’s the MecGar brand

Try a box or two and see. If you have problems, switch out the hammer spring to 13 and use it up. Probably won’t be able to feel the difference between the 11and 13 under match conditions.

I have the same set up but use Winchester primers. The S1050 allows me to control the seating depth of the primers so I have not experienced “light strikes” or “high primers. The CCI small pistol primers was having a harder time to seat deeper and had a handful that ended up sideways in the primer pocket. I use the CCI sp primers for my PCC loads.

The sight is closer to the slide than expected, I like that. Hate when a rear sight has to be cranked up that it leaves an unsightly gap just to zero the gun. I know I could get taller or shorter front sightsso it wasn’t a problem. Enjoy the sight picture of the full rear blade. Next I may go to a skinnier front sight. CZ Custom allows you to be put on a waitlist to be notified when it becomes available. That’s what I did.

I like this one from CZ Custom. Like the full blade instead of the pyramid of the stock sight.

I didn’t think Open would have the most entries. I’m one of them. Did you count last years match for comparison?

What kind mags do you need?

I watched it and it was okay for a remake. Set up for younger viewers, not for those that watched the original Magnum PI. It’s like the new Hawaii Five-O and even had some of their characters so I’m sure they’ll have appearances on each other’s show. Don’t like the way the producers stereo typed the HPD detective with a hokey Japanese name. Some will say at least there is an Asian on the show with a speaking part.....lol I’ll watch it a few more times just for the gun stuff and cars. BTW, Tom Selleck is a shooter.

Nice. How is it to draw from?

Same here

9.9.3 Moving scoring targets will always incur failure to shoot at and miss penalties if a competitor fails to activate the mechanism which initiates the target movement. This includes no-shoot targets that must be activated when in front of scoring targets to expose them, penalties are based on number of shots required for the scoring target(s) behind the no-shoot.

Don’t forget, even if you are allowed to shoot it before activation, you still need to activate it before you ULSC. If you don’t, it’s a procedural.

I’ll be going to Dawson Precision for replacement sights (front and rear). Looking at having a fully adjustable rear and a skinny front fo sight. When I’m ready, I’ll call DP and get their recommendation for front sight height.

Delivered yesterday via USPS First Class. Fast response and shipping (cheap too). Now to load and see if it is better than what I use now.

I too do this, like the day before early. Typically the squads I have shot on agree with having the shooting order in alphabetical order. Since I know I’ll probably be in the first two or three, I go early to the stages where our squad will start. Good if a squad is already shooting so I can see what options some shooters are taking.

Never seen that on a Glock trigger bar.
