I have two of the Taccom pins as spares. Tried one today just to make sure it worked. I got 5 rounds off, the. It started hanging up inside my bolt. I think I will just pick up a few CMMG pins for spares. My OEM pin has about 7,000 rounds through it . I’m using the Surmount Defense bolt

Here’s my QC10 build. It has been one sweet shooting PCC. The balance is unbelievable. Receiver set: QC10 Glock Mags Barrel: JP 16” BCG: Surmount Defense Arc Trigger: Elftman Tactical Match AR10/308 LPK: BCM Buffer: QC10 Adj 9mm buffer Buffer Spring: Springco Red carbine length spring Rec Extension: Strike Indust Enhanced Anti tilt Stock: Strike Indus Viper Ch Hndl: Strike Indus Ext latch Hand Guard: Tacoma Carbon Fiber Break: Tacoma small Selector Swich: Strike Indus Flip Switch Red Dot: Atibal MCRD2 Mags: Glock Factory 33rnd Basepads: TF +10

I'm going to watch them. Brownells was out of stock yesterday. Thanks man!

Thanks! Now I just need to find a Colt pin in stock. I would like to just have a spare available just in case

Looking to pick up a spare firing pin or two just in case. What seems to be the best firing pin for the Faxon Gen 2 BCG? I'm running the Surmount Defense BCG which is the same design as the Faxon. Looks like the BRCD, and KVP pins would work.

I use the Surmount Defense ARC 9mm BCG. It has removable slug weight, AR style extractor, nitride coated, works with Glock, and Colt mags, works with most drop in triggers. https://surmount-defense.com/products/9mm-blowback-bcg

Yea it's just not worth it to me. I have enough brass that a hundred or so cases tossed doesn't bother me. Just makes it time consuming to pic them out

Thanks! I currently use the Arredondo plastic keeper also. Truly the only way to go. I will be using my sponsor's Mag pouches. I was trying to decide if I buy another DAA, or if the cheaper Shooters Connection belt would work for the load weight of PCC. Thanks!

For 3Gun I use a DAA Pro belt, but I was curious what others were using for PCC only. I was thinking about a Shooters Connection belt, or CR Speed belt. What are your thoughts?

Yea I toss all the stepped brass in the trash. Never had issue in my pistols, but I have see. These separate too often in PCC.

I just mentioned that it works with Elftman, and CMC because both have been tested. I also get a lot of questions about if they work with those two triggers more than any other. I'm not saying that other bcg's will or won't work with drop in triggers.

PCC shooters check out these new 9mm BCG's! They are designed to work with Glock, and Colt mags, have a AR style pivoting extractor instead of the 1911 style, and will work with drop in triggers like the Elftman, and CMC. Use Code "Derrick" to receive 10% off your order! https://surmount-defense.com/products/9mm-blowback-bcg

I have been using the XP8 for 3 months now. So far I love it! I don't have any complaints at all. I load 55gr foenmy close stuff, and 68gr for longer distance. The BCC's seem to be spot on for hitting 3Gun steel at 200+ yards

I am currently setting up my 3Gun, and USPSA belt. I have decided to go with the DAA belt, and ELS 34/35 attachments. I will will be burning the holes in my belt to attach since that seems to be the best option for the ELS setup. My only issue is finding a mag pouch that will work with the ELS. I purchased 2 Blade Tech mag pouches with the Tech Lok system, but I can't for the life of me figure out how I will attach the ELS to them without redrilling new holes. I certainly don't mind drilling holes, but think that the slotted post or screws would interfere with the mags on the inside. Has anyone used this setup, or know of a mag pouch that works with ELS besides Safariland?

We have a decent number of wheel guns at our local IDPA matches. Usually average 5-10 wheel guns. If they allowed the 8 shot 9mm, I just might consider picking one up myself.

I think our biggest complaint was on Stage 1 you couldn't expose your left foot to the targets at P2. Stage 3 the SO said I don't care about P2 while you are shooting from P1. Then on Stage 4 the SO said don't expose yourself to targets at P2. We had a 15 min delay while one of the top shooters questioned the consistency. Wasn't a big deal for me, but I agree about the movers. Would have been nice to see a few more movers.

Sorry haven't been on this site in a while. Yea I noticed some of the stages changed from how they posted. The V Drill ended up changing to Mozambique's. without going in to great detail there was a lot of questions asked from a few top shooters in my squad about cover on stages 1,3&4. All in all it was a good match. I ended up 10th in SSP/SS due to my brain not working with my trigger finger on the theater stage. That pretty much costed me a top 5. Oh well we all live, and learn.

Sounds good. I will look at bringing my shade then. My wife may not want to sit in the sun all day. Long range forecast is 90*, and 40% chance of T-Storms.

Stages are pretty self explanatory. A stage can contain 1 COF, or multiple SOF. Our 4th Saturday local match had 2 stages with multiple strings of fire. The first stage was 2 SOF consisting of 6 rounds per string. The second stage had 3 SOF with 6 rounds in each string for 18rnds. Each SOF will have its own audable start, and time ends with last shot on that string.

^^^ This. Perform a Tac reload, and store on your way to the next position. In reference to shooting from extended cover. I shot a match last week. From P3 I couldn't see the 2nd target (middle target) due to the NT in my way. I'm not very tall at 5' 8". I had to take a big slide step out of P2, and could slice the pie with ease without any chance of hitting the NT. This also saves time from moving to P3. This forced me to take three 20-23 yrd shots vs 7- 10yrd shots, but saved time with -0 on those targets.

How do you haul your gear? Cart, stroller, ect? There is a BIG HUGE hill that depending on what squad you get assigned to you might have to go up it twice. It's what made me switch from a cart to a stroller. Bring a chair because its a long day but a good day. I missed last year and will miss this year due to prior engagements but its always a good match wtih great workers. I use a cart. Do you have an idea what squad #'s usually have to make the climb twice? I am on Squad 5. I'm glad you said something about chairs. All the ranges here in Ga, Al, & Sc have benches to sit in under those metal car ports. I didn't know if they had seats or not.

I work outside as a lineman. My work location is very rural with lots of fields, and farm land in East Ga. We often have highs 90-95* with humidity around 80-90%. Unfortunately my work clothes are not at all cool, and many days I spend 8-10hrs climbing poles out in pastures with no shade around. Twice in 17yrs I have experienced heat exhaustion. Once you have it once, it will come on quicker the next time. The key is to stay hydrated. I drink mainly water, but do add a Gatorade twice during my work day. On average I drink 1.5 - 2 gallons of water per day. Both times I experienced heat exhaustion, I was drinking water but not enough to keep pace with my sweating. I try to drink two 20oz bottles of water per stage when shooting. I also mix in a Gatorade, and eat something light like a granola bar, or jerky. At big matches I try to stay away from the provided lunches since most in the south are BBQ, or dogs & burgers. I will usually eat non salted oven baked almonds, and lots of fruit. This is pretty much my daily lunch at work during the summer. Today I had Almonds, banana, apple, and a bowl of watermelon, and cantaloupe.

Ha! Thanks! No worries! SSP/SS. Hope to get a bump before I have to do another classifier. Good luck to you sir!

Yea I have heard its a good match. I missed out on Alabama due to my son's baseball season. We have a group of 7 coming from Georgia. We are Squad 5.
