I can hardly spell shotgun, let alone run one like Kurt or Pat, but I can answer triple T's question with a resounding "YES!"

My Vinci was 10" high at 50 yds. so I mounted a Hi Viz FO front on a .125" spacer cut to the width of the rib. (1/8 X 1 flat bar) Used a longer mounting screw through the Hi Viz , spacer and into the OEM threads then drilled and pinned it like Mike @ AI did to my M2. Right on the money now.

Roll you and your rifle over 90 degrees right or left and know where you hit. Example: under a low barricade or a narrow horizontal port.

The lifter spring is prone to getting tired also. Sarge's suggestion and this are some likely causes. Parts are SX2 interchangeable, Brownells has a good diagram my link fu is weak.

How many company owners would handle a publicly aired complaint with as much tact and aplomb as those two have? Kudos to both.

Brownells SX2 same as SLP http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/sid=353/schematicsdetail/

.380 rear to .385 max front feed lip width, narrower at rear of mag with slight flair toward front. Once I switched to 2011's I figured I better know how to keep them running. $100 for a tuning kit and some knowledge gained goes a long way.

2 home built, 2 Noveske's and 2 JP's (JP15 & CTR) drop free with both Gen 2 and Gen 3 with Gen 2 a little tighter

+7 will give you 10 rounds but be beyond the end of the barrel

Denise,
We DO love you both, just don't hug me and make me squad mom again!

Which spring? What caliber? If it's recoil springs, my CQB Elite 5" in .45 runs a 17#.

Uber,
Looks like it applies to all divisions and appears to be the first time they've shot the match. ( "X" designation)

You can print your own ORM-D labels from the USPSA website. http://www.uspsa.org/orm-d/ormd.pdf

I ordered and paid for a complete rifle on 1-4-13, the lower arrived 1-25 and I just got a message from Ben today that the upper is in inspection and will ship within a week. Much faster than anticipated, JP is going above and beyond in my opinion.

The "mystery" part comes in the form of riddles to be solved for prizes. There can also be prizes hidden around stages. Last year there was a $50 bill hidden in plain view on one stage that went unnoticed if I recall correctly. Last year a squad mate solved an answer and got a nice Voodoo Tactical 3 gun bag.

The relationship between the barrel and the bolt itself are what determines your headspace. Beyond that you are free to use whatever components are compatible.

Steve RA...The "bolt forward" may have been a misnomer but it does move slightly and takes the presssure off the lugs as the gas comes in behind the gas rings holding the bolt stationary (linear) as the carrier is forced rearward and the bolt rotates free as the cam pin does its' work.

I too was able to acquire one of the last JP barrels from Shooters Connection and an LMOS carrier on 12-28, the last available as far as I know. On 1-4-13 I paid for a JP-15 in full and the build entered the queue. They are focusing on lowers for obvious reasons if paid in full and then will work on uppers. I am picking up the lower this morning from the FFL (it arrived yesterday), 3 weeks have passed. How far out the upper is I have no idea. Hope this info. helps in your decision.

With a cheap pair of digital calipers I have a Seekins Precision that measures .9995-1.0005"

I met John when he came to the second day of a two day NST class. He brought his wife and kids and we started taking about gun cases. He
insisted on taking me over to his Land Cruiser and pulling out cases that he felt were the best built and showing me the features and talking about the design criteria that went into them. Thoughts and prayers for his family as they deal with the loss.

A 1/4 turn on an 8-32 screw is less than .008" of travel. Most times you'll establish a minimum setting for lock back and then add at least a 1/4 turn if not a 1/2 to assure reliability. The peace of mind about not losing adjustment would far outweigh infinite adjustment for me. YMMV

I reserve the right to be wrong in my recall and mathematics.
Bifocals for 3 gunners
in Multi-gun Gear & Accessories
Posted
Clay1,
I use Decot Hy-Wyd bifocals and settled on the following configuration with the help of Robert from Decot. My bifocal is a 2.50, they brought .75 of that up into the main part of the lens to bring the handgun front sight into focus. This for me was not enough to disturb the long distance focus (barely noticeable). The bifocal line was placed low enough so as not to be in the way for any activities other than close up reading, etc.. I initially started with .25 in the main part of the lens and that was not enough and didn't last long. the bifocal still remains a 2.5 overall. The light rose color works well all around for me. Hope this helps.
