Triangle Tactical. Lol  

 

Local dude but can’t get past his arrogance. Short Course on the other hand is top notch! Ben is a good dude, too! 

Huh, I've never been called arrogant.

 

Noted.

I called Blackwater - now Academi - and was transferred to a number that let me leave a message, but never  called me back.

I understand they don't have a range for civilian use.

There is a range listed in NSSF in Moyock, but it doesn't really exist.

C-2 over in Pungo is the best bet locally, but expensive and no bays to practice movement. A range near Hertford is available, but has a waiting list.

May be something in the Raleigh area.

 

In the Triangle area we've got a BUNCH of everything. 

 

Closer to you, there's Pitt County Wildlife Club who does USPSA and the occasional 3-gun match I believe. 

 

I think there's a USPSA match in Havelock too. 

 

I've got all the triangle stuff on my calendar at http://triangletactical.net/calendar and then there's the NC Section website at http://www.ncsection.org which has all the USPSA matches in the state.

Any ranges, clubs, matches in the Eastern part of the state?

I live just south of the NC/Va line in Moyock and having trouble finding an IPSC/3G/PRS range

There was talk of a club starting in Moyock at Blackwater, (guy was in my Level1 RO class about a 1.5yrs ago that was gonna be part of it) but that was the last I heard anything about it.

[Triangle Tactical interview with Chris Tilley]

You guys hit a home run (again) with this one. Lots of topics from breaking stages down to how shooting ebbs and flows in your life. Very quick hour - hope you guys connect with Chris again.

Thanks, it was fun. I really enjoy the interviews, wish more folks would come through the area more often. They always come out better when we're all in the same room instead of recording a Skype call or something.

[Triangle Tactical interview with Chris Tilley]

Thanks for sharing! We had a lot of fun recording this. The whole "Shooting is so unnatural, if you start doing what’s comfortable, you’re going to create a lot of bad habits” thing blew my mind.

[Moving back to NC soon, would appreciate info.]

Check out www.triangletactical.net. They have a shooting sports calendar on their site with all the area matches. We're lucky to have lots of matches in the area of many diciplines(USPSA, IDPA, 3-Gun, etc...)

Thanks Eric.

Yeah, the Triangle area is the Mecca for competitive shooting in the state. Tons of matches every weekend, USPSA, IDPA, 3-gun, etc.

[THIS SPRING?]

Someone posted what is supposed to be a G43 picture on GT and other forums.

Can you link it?

keep you burgerhook off the bang switch until your peepers are on the hamburgler .......

I dug into this too, here you go:http://www.triangletactical.net/2015/03/12/photo-forensics-the-glocks-first-ever-single-stack-9mm-ad/

[THIS SPRING?]

Nah, just cut my dryfire session a little short. Did all the Photoshop work wearing my production rig then went right back to the garage and got to work.

[THIS SPRING?]

Hey ya'll, I just dissected the new Glock ad with the picture of the slide profile. Check it out here: http://www.triangletactical.net/2015/03/11/photo-forensics-new-glock-ad-with-slide-profile/

Steve Anderson and Ben Stoeger are great competition podcasts. The Power Factor show I like on youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/powerfactorshow

I've shot with the Triangle Tactical dudes and they are great promoters of competition and carry. Good motivation to go shooting. http://www.triangletactical.net/2014/10/27/new-ccw-guns-105/

Then there's always Hickock45 and Gun Blast for guntainment.

Thanks man. Latest episode is an interview with Steve Anderson, and only a little van halen... www.triangletactical.net/107

[good way to get started in idpa]

I'd recommend showing up to a match, and find someone who looks like they know what they are doing, and get some help from them.

IDPA is pretty straight forward, just show up and give it a go!

[Shotgun Shell Holder]

If you are handy, you can make some from Kydex.

(Mods, I hope it's OK to post a link to my site, if not, I understand)

http://www.triangletactical.net/2013/01/24/diy-shotgun-shell-caddies/

If you have a dremel, heat gun, and some other tools, its worth it, if not, you may be better off buying some. Doesn't Choate have some really inexpensive shell caddies out there now too?

[Where to move to? And still shoot]

Wilmington, NC. Quite a few matches, of an assorted variety around there. (But, I'm from TX, so my definition of stupid hot could be different.)

+1 for eastern NC. Several matches of different disciplines within an hour of downtown Raleigh every weekend.

[Why so few Glock 24's]

I have a 24 as well. Shoots like a laser beam. Stupid accurate! Soft shooting, and a lot of fun. I shoot a lot of "action pistol" matches with no rules for division, etc, and I like it a lot.

Added a lw 40-9 barrel, and a 13lb spring and she eats 9mm quite reliably as well.

As stated above, it could use a lighter slide, been looking into that.

[Glockworx gunsmithing.]

Has anybody here had any slide milling done by Glockworx? The pictures on their site look fantastic, was curious about the actual quality of work, turnaround time, etc.

I have a Glock 24 that I love, but I would like to lighten the slide a little in an attempt to speed it up a bit.

[Kitchen Kydex mag pouches]

Has anybody tried an 8 shotshell carrier?

I've done a few 6 shell carriers, let me see if I can find a picture.

[mossburg 930]

the ones benny had at the pro-am were smoothed over really nice and had a good contour to them. Maybe he can post a pic?

I found a pic earlier in this thread. I'll be busting out the sandpaper tomorrow afternoon.

[mossburg 930]

Does anybody have a good picture of how you radiused the forearm? I just finished hogging out the loading port, and I need to cut back the forearm a little, but I need ideas.

[Why do people weld lifters?]

If you can't weld because you don't have the equipment, you can buy one instead.

Are you referring to the 930? I'd love to buy a litter already welded up.

[Why do people weld lifters?]

930's don't need to be welded up

I didn't have a problem going slow, but at the range this afternoon trying to go fast, I got stuck, and it sucked.

[Why do people weld lifters?]

I got my thumb caught in my 930 this afternoon. Just about lost my thumb nail.

[How do you like the new finish on your Glocks?]

I actually really like the new finish, its got a little more texture to it, making it easier to manipulate the slide. The slides are still tennifer treated.

[How much is this effecting accuracy?]

Every Glock I own does that.

[Glock 24]

I just bought one. I put an ad up over at GLockTalk, had about a million people email me. Found a great deal on a basically NIB Gen3 model. Loooooooooove it.
