  1. It's good to have with you, you never know when you'll need it until you find yourself shooting your first stage facing the east on am squad. Been there, used an ammo box and some duct tape to make an improvised custom sun shade.
  2. Nice, It looks pretty interesting. Might have to try one, they are pretty reasonable and then make good optics.
  3. I've tried a vortex spitfire 1x prism, I have a stigmatism so the etched reticle and choice between red or green is great. I felt like reticle is just a bit too busy, wish they had a single dot option. If you're going to be shooting out to distance (az pcc championship) the turret could come in quite handy.
  4. I'd been running a vortex UH1 for a good while, and recently switched to an Aimpoint T2. I used to like eotech style reticle/window, but found I was picking up the red and sending it, sometimes it was the larger red circle instead of the center dot. Now with the 2 moa dot of the T2, if I see the red somewhere near the A, its going to be in. I wish Vortex made an option with just a center dot. Plus side on the aimpoint is definitely no worry about battery life. Johnny
  5. Hunters HD, they just work, excellent service. Plus they support the sport. They'll send you 3 or 4 sample frames that you choose, you try them on, see which one's you like, mark the lens and then send them in to get your prescription filled. Easy and quick process. Johnny
  6. Anyone know if there is a factory JP5 flat faced trigger available to swap out the factory curved.
  7. I've been running the Coda, and they've been working really good. I'm running the longer ones, only thing is I ordered them with their "bladetech" type mount and they were not very good. I ended uo purchasing real bladetech belt mounts and haven't looked back.
  8. I just started looking into them, they look pretty promising. Have you shot any groups with it?
  9. DH3 Trigger has to be my favorite so far, well worth the money. JG
  10. I've been running Bobro 1.93 on a 34mm tube, it's been fantastic, has held up great getting tossed around in dump boxes and barrels. I have a couple of their risers too. JG
  11. I competed at the Sons of Liberty match, it was a great format, definitely going to next year's match.
  12. Any word if there is going to be a 2020 Noveske Rifle Series in the works?
  13. A good FF scope with a good reticle and getting actual dope for your setup/ammo. Take good notes, write it on a little card and tape it to your scope, that should get you close depending on external factors. I know for my 18 inch rifle zeroed POA/POI at 200 yds shooting 62 gr fed, I need to hold 1 mil for 300, 1.3 for 325, 1.5 for 350, 2 for 375, 2.3 for 400, 2.4 for 425, 2.5 for 450, etc.....and I got dope out to 775. My buddy and I set up a small steel target, grabbed the rangefinder and walked back in 25 yard increments. My other suggestion, is to go out with a buddy that shoots PRS matches and run his setup and help him offset the cost of the ammo. Your long range game will improve dramatically, unfortunately you might find yourself sucked into the PRS life.... Believe the bullet, JG
  14. I've got a 16.5 voodoo rifle length pencil barrel JP Low Mass, adj gas block, with thin Mi handguard for bay style matches and a factory Barnes 18 inch 3G rifle for outlaw 3 gun matches with a 1 to 8.5 bushnell. I end up running the light weight gun out to 200 anything beyond that I like the extra weight of the 18 inch.
  15. I've tried the dragon, seemed like the gun was over comped, would push the muzzle dramatically down and to the right. I like the PS M472 , works awesome, only thing is the blast/gas hits the shooter right in the face, just switched back to JM on my 16.5 and keeping the the other M472 on my 18 inch. JG
  16. I don’t remember who explained it to me this way, but it made sense to me. The way he described it was using your eye to capture an image much like the iris of an old slr camera opening up and exposing the film to capture the image. As you press the trigger and the firing pin/striker hits the primer and ignites the propellant, your eye captures the sight picture in relation to the target. I found it a lot easier to learn behind a carbine or bolt gun with a scope, but it’s a skill that comes in extremely handy when shooting falling/static steel, if you're waiting to see it fall or get sound confirmation, you are doing it wrong.

  17. 18 reloadable and 19 if I force it in.
  18. I've been using the 9mm 140 mags for a few months and they've been working awesome. I purchased 5 of the 140's in .40 and two of them are hit or miss when getting down to last 5 rounds. Shot an indoor match last month and I dropped a fully loaded mag from my mag pouch accidently and it cracked in the front and launched 18 rounds across the range floor. JG

    17L vs 34

    Two anywhere or one alpha, until the sight radius comes in handy to engage 50 to 75 yard pistol steel or small steel targets at 25 yards. That's if you shoot outlaw 3 gun matches on natural terrain stages, if you're mainly shooting bay style matches I feel like a 17 is fast enough. I dropped a Wilson Barrel in my 17 and it groups better than my 34 with a kkm and the kkm that I had in it before, found myself running that this year and it worked out great. Not sure if that helps any lol. JG I guess what I was trying to say is shoot the one that you shoot most accurate. Confirm on paper at distance i.e. 50 yards.

    Glock 17M

    And they still can't add front cocking serrations! JG
  21. Rifles Only, Jacob is an excellent instructor and the shooting facilities are fantastic. The bunk house is a great deal as well. Took PR1/PR2 combo class, the return on your investment will pay for itself. JG
  22. I just received three 140 nine mm mags that I purchased with the Memorial Day discount code. Fixing to try them out tomorrow, really looking forward to the .40s when they come out. JG
  23. So how did it compare to the carver 5 port? I'm currently running the old lone wolf comp on a G35 in .40.
  24. Any word on when they are coming out. I picked up two sparc 2s in the meantime and one of them quit functioning after a magazine, starting to flash/blink and then wouldn't turn on anymore.
