Can you put a bullet on top of your barrel and do dry fire. Does the bullet fall or wobble?

I travel to 3 gun matches in 2015-2017. I stopped shooting 3 gun because it is taking too much time away from my family. Even local match is a day. We carry 3 gun and ammos for 3 gun, starting to be really expensive and ridiculous and only pro's getting the major prizes. Match fee, hotel cost, gas for long travels and restaurant food for almost 4 days is serious money. I lost my job and almost lost my family because of this 3 gun (and my shooting sports in general).
It is not about shotgun. I love shotgun and one of my favorite match is the Benelli Shotgun championship. I'm coming back into the shooting sports in a more controlled manner. More to be with friends. I am shooting just local half day USPSA just 1 or 2 times a month with spouse approval. I may just shoot local PRS matches and I probably shoot shotgun matches. For me it is dumping rifle rounds in close proximity is what I'm not excited about.
I met wonderful people and have wonderful memories from the 3 gun matches. I miss it. But whatever I do now, I make sure I have family support and I don't neglect your job. This sport is fun but let us not kid ourselves, this hobby is expensive and eats a lot of time. -
I was not able to because I did all the wrong decisions. I have one of the best 2011 limited gun built by LimCat early in my shooting sport days. And best SVI mags. To save I should just have kept it and shoot it and reload my own ammo and pick brass.
What I did was I chased other divisions, chased other guns, buy, sell, buy, sell.... Do not be like an idiot like me. Get a good gun (even an STI EDGE is good enough) and just keep on shooting until you become GM.

I used to attend around 7 major 3 gun and USPSA matches 4-5 years ago. I lost my job and almost lost my family. So I stopped shooting, went back to school to study and dedicate my weekends more to family and volunteering. Now maybe I plan to shoot local USPSA matches once a month. Some match that will last half day at most so that I can still run errands and spend quality time with my family at home. As fun 3-gun is, it takes a lot of time and other resources. And I'm getting old.

With both eyes open, try not to look at your sights but focus your vision on the target then put your sights in front of you.
-
I've been closing or squinting my right eye for shooting. I found out that I was focusing at looking at my sights (rear and front) that is why I'm getting double vision when I open both of my eyes. Then I try to look at target instead and do not look at my sights. I put the gun in front of me and viola!, I can now open both my eyes and only see single vision. Try it!

I shoot CZ SPO1 shadow in USPSA and carry/home defense CZ PO1 with decocker.
-
if it is a good deal then get it. it's not tough to change it back to manual da/sa if you
want to go to ssp or production in uspsa someday.

Favorite Lube
in CZ
i have steel guns. any oil that's free. like brownells.. my favorite WD40. removes rust as well.
-
cz cleaning.... yeah the mags definitely everytime. gun...what cleaning? :-)
-
that's my CCG. it's really nice to carry concealed in a quality holster like Milt Sparks Versa Max 2. and it shoots accurately. May shoot it this season for some local match.

In my experience, the disconnector is only for DA. if i am converting DA/SA i know i could keep or remove disconnector and it will not effect the SA trigger pull (it does for length of trigger rebound) if am converting SA to DA/SA then i need to have the DA trigger and disconnector. disconnector polishing contributes to the smoothness of the DA pull. the disconnector type also contributes to length of the trigger rebound (short disconnector) and i'm very carefull to use the short disconnector in CZ that has firing pin block. it may or may not work.

How does it shoot with the factory rear sight?
-
here in SP01 frame. P01 should work as well but not decocker.
23+1 in 9mm using CZ custom spring kit, 18 rd tube and cz custom short extended basepad.
-
i have this and i have flat trigger. i could convert to SA.
-
ETA for participants registration?
-
good match! I'll come more prepared next year. I find the match this year tougher than last year.
-
that hammer has been barely touching the sear all this time is my bet. That is why it rounded. i don't know if you are willing to re-profile the hammer or just get another CZ hammer.
-
you have to try that with slide on. it should not touch the sear. you have to back off your overtravel screw until the hammer and sear doesn't touch when you rock the hammer back and forth while pressing your trigger.
-
maybe the shape of the bullet that you use require's you load it even more shorter. what bullet do you use?
-
recoil is same plus you could hold CZ higher. 2011 grip size smaller.. Yeah if you have $$$$$ go for SV. Else CZ works well too. i get less gun issues with CZ than 2011. plus if you use non sv mag in 9mm... it's expensive and problematic. CZ you can forget about your gun and focus on shooting.

I run titegroup on my JHP bullets in production. I run N320 behind BBI moly bullets for 3 gun. Look ma no smoke :-)
