Great Match ! are the scores posted samorwhere ?

cool

I have vz grips on a high power very thin almost too thin for my taste and I don't have big hands

I ended getting used to a different hand position

well maybe not exactly the same trigger wise etc

I'm gettin ready to pick up my baby eagle pretty much the same category

I have went back to my sig 226 and its not on the top when it comes to USPSA but I love shooting it and I do shoot high B class with it. they are basically the same gun. my .02

As for stage 1 Are you allowed to keeps mags in your hand after retrieving them from the ammo can or do they have to be stowed in mag pouches etc. And does this matter if you are shooting production or limited ....... Sorry if this question has already been asked, thank's for any help.

Jager here in 34 and 35 not sure how many thousands of rounds so far and no problems

carmoney what is your opinion of a good age to start them in USPSA

Tell that to Max Michel and Eric Grauffel. They both started at 7. Max was winning local matches at 10 - 11. It all depends upon the kid. Mine has been shooting for 3 years, handguns for 1. He is shooting local matches with me with a 22 with a dot. He is beating a few shooters here and there as well. If the kid wants to, and can be safe, let them shoot. (Assuming it is ok with your club members). To say that 9 is too young is to throw way too big of a blanket statement at such a subjective subject. It's not about age. There are 60 year olds in our club who shouldn't be shooting. It's not about shooting skill, it's about judgment. While I would agree that every kid develops differently (and some never do, like those 60 year olds at your club), 9 year olds simply aren't ready to handle handguns out of the immediate reach of a supervising adult. I believe it is irresponsible and negligent to allow a child that young to shoot USPSA/IPSC, and I believe I have the experience in both shooting and parenting to make such a statement. The problem is that parents' judgment can be clouded by their eagerness to have their kids involved in their favorite activity. Understandable. And unfortunately, other shooters won't always speak up. The consequences of being wrong are too severe.

My son just turned 12 last month and he is B class in Production. At 9 shot Cowboy with a six guns etc for fundamentals Also at 9 started him in USPSA with a five shot revolver in 38 and light loads and speed loaders. I also shot the same setup so he wouldn't feel like he was the slow odd ball. Shooting double action while moving I was less worried and could work on his movements etc. When he was 6 or so I tought him range and gun handling safety with a paintball gun. then at 7 or so moved on to a 22 rifle etc. I'm no GM but I wouldn't start them on an open gun or a dot. Just one guys (dads) $0.02

My son and I both use Jager Light Strikers we used them all of last year, which we put probably 4k rounds each of using CCI, Winchester and Fed primers. Not had a single light strike or any other issue. We have them in a Gen4 G34 and G35. Hand prime all of them which shouldn't make a difference I wouldn't think as far as light strikes go.

Thank's for the heads up. I'm not 100% sure I'm going to keep this TS. I just got it and I'm coming from a G35 so you can imagine the switch. I'm going to shoot it for the first time in a match this weekend and I will decide then. If I keep it then I will be filing base pads LOL

well since I originally posted this topic I have practiced draws / grip and this fixed the issue without modifying the gun. Thank's for the replies
