works for ammo

Welcome

Thanks Dave, The stippling is pretty aggressive, I did go over it once lightly with 220 grit sand paper. The the trigger under cut and beavertail helps to get higher on the grip to help lower the bore axis some and control recoil better. The front undercut on the trigger gaurd is just for me to place my support hand so i can get the same grip every time. Rick Ps Practice on junk glock mags or an old plastic rifle stock.

One more for The SJC, I have an aluminum one and It's more like a mag funnel...

For the part where my middle finger on my strong hand goes, I used a piece of 80 grit sand paper and rolled it around my finger and shaped it like that. (removed mag release) For the part where my support hand pointer finger is, I used the file at first and it took to long to get there so I grabed the Dremel and knocked it down and did the finish work with a file and sand paper.(80 and 220 grit) Rick

Thanks guys, That's some really good info and makes alot of sense to me. I need to get better at planing stages. Brian your right on that miss and I need to work on calling my shots too. I can't wait to hit the range this weekend and get some practice in. Rick

So I have been shooting USPSA since about July of last year. This is the first time I had someone record me. I see lots of things I need work on. Lets hear it.

Thanks guys...I used a wood burning kit and it came with a tip that was like a flathead screwdrive.

I used JB weld with three coats. You kinda have to check it often because it will start to drip. I just scuffed up the area and applyed with a zip tie. Then when i could see it was a staring to dry i put on a latex glove and formed it. I just used some semi-flat black paint for now but may ceracoat the frame soon.

do you mean this one? These look sweet but they said no plans for a .40sw at shot show.

Here ya go...I added to the back of the non-existent beavertail did not want to add to much to the bottom and not allow for as high of grip.

Extend the beavertail with epoxy stippled the frame and double undercut the trigger gaurd

My two goals for area 1 are, no dairy queen and not to come in last. This will be my first level 3 match and i'm getting excided...

Springfield Armory Operator can be had with a full length dust cover. (full rail)

Congratz on the new pistol and finding this great site. I am not a member of DSRPC but attend the matchs regularly. I do have to pay an extra 5 bucks at the match for being a non-member though. I will join the club eventually. Hope to see ya out there soon. Rick

I thought it was a new sight tracker for 2013 season, L10 division. I'm glad you were not hurt.

I think it's time to replace the spring though due to paint starting to chip off...gonna order a few more.

I bought the Jager full length guide rod and 14lb zev spring for my G34 and have no signs of wear on the guide rod after 2000rds. I have since got a G24 and put that same assembly in it with no problems. Rick

Here in Nevada you have to be 21 to buy from a dealer but only 18 to be in possession...Just thought i would mention that. What state are you in?

http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=137358 They talk about Devcon on the last few pages, I think wal-mart or lowes may carry it. I just used JB weld like others mentioned.

I think some use Devcon epoxy..

At my skill level or lack thereof anything past 12 yards i shoot one shot wait for it to return and then shoot another. a little slower but usally get both hits.

ok here is a pic of the one i did.

+1 on doing it yourself.

I changed mine out last night, I have a Vanek for a 9mm. Now that i have a .40 (G24) I removed the 9mm ejector and replaced it with the .40 ejector...thanks for the info.
