  1. If you have previously fit another brand i.e. EB, Wilson, etc... the procedure and safety checks are the same. SV posts a guide on their website with the appropriate disclaimers - linky here
  2. Will do Kevin. I'm looking forward to it.
  3. Sorry to hear about this I've been tempted to order stuff likewise because new items are available first through DAA directly. Right now, I'm waiting on two newly announced items. However, I've always waited until they became available here through one of the US distributors i.e. CEDDAA or Shooters Connection. Not to make you feel bad about having your goods lost/stolen/stuck in customs, but may I ask why you ordered the holster from DAA instead of a US distributor? The holster has been been available here for quite sometime.
  4. I do get a nyuk-nyuk out of that one. What kind of maroon stuffs a qtip so far in the ear and so hard that it hurts? Ditto - and there's always a news story later on about a product recall due to unintended medical side effects. I can honestly say that has never occurred to me... but I haven't been fishing since I was a kid. Keep'm coming folks. I think there's actually an As seen on TV store in a local shopping center nearby. I might have to go visit it for a few chuckles.
  5. Esther, You shot well. Even though everyone had their share of misses, etc... today, you hit when you aimed (for the most part) and you were safe shooting each stage. One could not ask for more. All of the above issues go away with the experience, some of which you have just started to collect. On #4: You owe David an even bigger thanks than that. Remember what happened on stage 4? or thanks to David, what might have happened but didn't.
  6. OK we've all seen some pretty cheesy, funny, stupid, etc... stuff advertised on TV. Post your favorite. Seen today: Perfect Polly - a fake parakeet that turns its head and simu-chirps - 2 for $14.99
  7. Oil - Yes, lots Eye protection - Definitely Tell your friend he's got a serious blinking problem
  8. Unfortunately, as a practical matter, it's much easier to say "Ip-Sick" than "Us-P-Sa". I mean this in all seriousness. I agree with making distinctions for purposes of clarity and not just in the shooting sports. Though not really a personal peeve, I certainly see the point in maintaining (and explaining to newbs) the distinction between IPSC and USPSA.
  9. The bitter taste of poor quality lingers long after the sweet taste of a cheap price has past....
  10. Around here, the brass in the park or down the street is behind the police tape....
  11. Welcome! You can check the Richmond Rod & Gun club and specifically, the Richmond Hotshots website for information. Cowboy, IDPA, USPSA and other shooting disciplines fill the calendar. There's somekind of match nearly every weekend.
  12. time to go buy a lottery/power ball/sweepstakes ticket.... glad they turned up.
  13. It may be that, due to the thickness of the S&A MSH unit, you may have to bend the grip safety leg of the sear spring (the three-bladed flat spring) outwards/rearwards to fully/properly engage the grip safety. Just a thought....
  14. My life is now complete. I have something in common with TGO....
  15. Does anyone make a basepad that would get you ~20 rounds of 40 in a a126mm mag? If so, that might be the ticket....
  16. OK, in the words of Sheriff Buford T. Justice, "The gol durn Germans ain't got nothin' to do with it!!" Sorry. I couldn't help myself. I've always wanted to use that line.
  17. It's the most fun you can have with your pants on. Welcome!
  18. As long as the gun is solid, meaning it goes bang everytime you pull the trigger, you'l be fine.
  19. I was out of shooting the last time. Nevertheless, this time even I could see it coming so I bought before the fit hit the shan. I don't shoot as much as some and I'm converting to one caliber so I figure I have enough for the better part of this year. By the time my supply runs out, I should have a press up and running again and I'm hoping that components will be available.
  20. It doesn't translate so much to shooting, but good knife skills in the kitchen put a premium on efficiency/minimum of movements.
  21. <<bows head and raises hand>> Other symptoms include air gunning, doing the duck walk and opening doors with the weak hand low and gun hand high.
  22. You could improve your sugar/creamer transition by keeping the spoon in the right hand and picking up the creamer with your left hand
