  1. Just before that announcement I shot an IDPA match in PA that had a Texas Star and loved it. Her not wanting USPSA Lite did happen, wooden fault lines, standing in the open behind a piece of wood and pretending that you're in cover etc. They even change the original principles and don't adhere to them, Bill et al must be shaking their collective heads.
  2. I had Tactical Ordnance, in Canada, do my second G34 slide and supply and install a Holosun and suppressor sights. Reasonable cost and 2 weeks from the time it went to the post office to delivery to my door.

    cleaning the frame

    Me too, a Lyman Turbo Sonic, and use the Turbo Sonic metal cleaner.
  4. They still couldn't organise a pi$$ up in a brewery. They need to pay a professional writer for the rulebook.
  5. I have this set and they don't fit the S&W screws, either too big or too small. I use mine mainly for scope rings and bases. I forgot to add that I have this set and has the correct bits. https://www.wheelertools.com/gunsmithing-tools/wrenches-and-screwdrivers/89-piece-professional-gunsmithing-screwdriver-set/562194.html
  6. MagPul don't make a 10rd G17/34 mag they must be pinned, and when the problems begin. Stick with the Glock 10 rd mags and you won't have problems. I have 1 G17 mag, a Gen 1, that works perfectly but doesn't drop.
  7. No one has mentioned Comp Tac. We have 3 of them and they are perfect. YMMV.
  8. I have 28 G17/34 mags and most of them are 20+ years old. They run perfectly and still have the original springs. All stock. All used for competition by my Wife and me.
  9. Looking at some of the numbers, I see people who don't recheck their load over a chrony and who play close to the line will be DQ'd because of the ammo. I'm not into porting but I say fill yer boots. As Farmer said no before velocities prior to porting. This almost makes the test invalid.
  10. While this isn't a Glock but a Beretta 96D Centurian in 40S&W belonging to a Police Department I was the Armourer for. The importance of lube or is this too much? I asked the Officer what the lube was and why this much. The response was the lube is fishing reel grease and his Dad (a sergeant with the Department) told that's the way to lube it. I took me a least an hour to get the grease out and ultrasonic clean twice. I instructed him how to lube a pistol and told his Dad that he was wrong, I was asked why and said if the temperature was -15C or below, the gun would freeze and not operate when needed.
  11. Breakfree CLP for every gun I own.
  12. You will need to measure the width of the screw, thickness of the slot so9 that you can order the correct bits.
  13. I purchased an STI Trojan 45ACP in 2007 and put the Dawson F/O front sight on it. I was expecting to replace it in about 2 years. It's shot through out he summer, clean in an ultrasonic cleaner and it's still going strong, albeit a little lighter. It's red and I prefer green.

    Holsters.

    Look at Comp Tac holsters.
  15. A well written rulebook would cure all/most of their issues.
  16. That was when Robert Ray was at the Berryville HQ, then they had the purge - giving everyone there their walking papers (Joyce didn't have the guts to do it herself and had one of her minions do it). With Robert you gat an answer if he had one and of not he got back to you. Call your AC isn't working, you have 50 AC, SC and IPOC's and that many possible different answers.
  17. Forgotten is the outside temperature, they will be cold with the temperature drops.
  18. All I did with mine was to remove the hammer spur, an easy job.
  19. The Dr, Instructor, CSO who lost control of his gun tried to catch it and that's when he shot himself. He broke the cardinal rule, if the gun get loose let it go and not try to catch it. https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/vancouver-man-dies-after-shooting-himself-during-kamloops-pistol-contest
  20. So true. I believe that things were much better a year or two before the tiger teams. That's when the game got FUBAR'ed.
  21. I hope that you did not! Are you surprised? I'm certainly not.
  22. Looking at its width, it may catch on the belt/equipment on the draw. I think that it's too wide.
  23. I'll delete Scrap Iron (Snap On) from the list. They are junk. As a mechanic for over 40 years, too many rounded and caused more problems. Bondus is the way to go by far.
  24. I installed one in a Gen3 (the complete kit) and it didn't fire. I reinstalled the old parts and replaced then 1 at a time springs first, so far all good. When II got to the trigger it quit firing. Took all of the parts out, making the gun stock and got rid of the kit. Not impressed.
  25. There has been since the Tiger Teams and it has gotten worse. I just about fell over when I saw this. Too funny!
