  1. ahhh...man! you're really dating yourself now. first the ballistic pendulum comment and now this....bringing up second chance. I am assuming you mean the bowling pin shoot. @ Gforce, it's squaring the velocity in the KE equation that bugs me. as you can see what was posted up above numbers-wise, the 9mm Para puts out more foot-pounds than that .45ACP, hence, therefore, ergo, all police departments and federal law enforcement agencies should be required to carry the more powerful 9mm pistols. just kidding... .50AE is "good med'cin" for bowling pins. I've seen it with my own two eyes. I felt it too. 9mm Major is anemic. .40 at major power factor is better .45 ACP is next. and some guys are stuffing a cast lead 255 grain boolit meant for the .45 Long Colt into their ACP cases. shot placement is critical with pins. at our pin matches the table is 3 feet deep and the pins are set back a foot and a half from the edge...so you have to knock the pins clear off the table. the timer stops when the last pin falls off the table. you are partner'ed up with another guy who has 5 pins to clear on his side. I get to use my laser grips. :-) when i did second chance, i was loading 285 GR HP with 700/800x. 5 pin tables were 4' x 8', with the pins 1 foot from the front edge. square hit and those things left the table pronto. the 9 pin event was for 9/38 and the pins were only 1 foot from the back edge. patrick can chime in for sure. i never shot the 9 pin.
  2. You young guys don't remember the ballistic pendulum. That was before the chrono surfaced. I can tell you those 38 super rounds couldn't come close to a .45. Just sayin...
  3. Swsp out the 1100 carrier with an 11-87 carrier...mo betta.
  4. California: The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks the Governor's dog, then bites the Governor. 1. The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and then realizes he should stop because the coyote is only doing what is natural. 2. He calls Animal Control; Animal Control captures the coyote and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it. 3. He calls a veterinarian; the vet collects the dead dog and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases. 4. The Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on getting his bite wound bandaged. 5. The running trail gets shut down for 6 months while Fish & Game conducts a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is now free of dangerous animals. 6. The Governor spends $50,000 in state funds implementing a "coyote awareness program" for residents of the area. 7. The State Legislature spends $2 million to study how to better treat rabies and how to permanently eradicate the disease throughout the world. 8. The Governor's security agent is fired for not stopping the attack. 9. The State spends $150,000 to hire and train a new agent with additional special training re: the nature of coyotes. 10. PETA protests the coyote's relocation and files a $5 million suit against the State. Montana: The Governor of Montana is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A Coyote jumps out and attacks his dog. 1. The Governor shoots the coyote with his State-issued pistol and keeps jogging with his dog. 2. The Governor has spent $0.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge. 3. The Buzzards eat the dead coyote. And that, my friends, is why California is broke and Montana is not.
  5. Shoot a TA11 once and you'll forget about a 1x4.
  6. I plan doing time plus instead of Horner like last year, I think its easier and more fun. Doug all i needed to hear-i'll be there...put those plates up on the hill of the back area again-that was awesome.
  7. When I watched the way the "jam" occurs and I too think the piece from Dave's could elevate the shell enough that it will not bump into the receiver. I ordered that piece lastnight and hopefully it will help. I think I will wait for the EZloader b4 I startup the dremel... Can you load your mag when not "cocked"? Thanks! no way-1100's cannot do that, the interceptor latch trips when you pull the trigger, and until it's latched again, no way to load.
  8. DPMS upper, JP 18" barrel, john holmes cooley brake, TA11-H, burkett offset mount with JP sight, McCormick trigger group.
  9. if you don't have an EZ loader, it will be more difficult. and yes, relieving the loading area, especially the upper mouth of the mag tube (as you view it upside down) will make a huge difference.
  10. I just give benny $$ and he does his magic. My job is to shoot it like crazy. And yes, he gets the 930 and builds from there. Drink the kool aid...it's good.
  11. too early to speculate, but if this is true, do you remember what uspsa's reaction was to the 10 round mag deal? outlaw matches won't care, but it'll be interesting to see what uspsa does.
  12. if it's a nordic tube, they sell some cool tube caps that are varying lengths. assuming you already have your spring cut correctly...
  13. so an $1,100 gun gets another $900 in work from rob, then requires additional dremel work to get it right? what was the $900 for?
  14. Purty mouth....LMAO. California joke.
  15. Note: merged topic Congrats to chris tilley, athena lee and maggie reese!
  16. I'm glad benny's doing mine. Lota trix on the inside of a 930.
  17. anyone ever ship ammo to the match hotel for this one?
