any gun is more fun to shoot after you learn its trigger. I was used to trigger weights in the grams from rifle silhouette shooting...when I first started shooting steel I thought what the heck is this crap with these nasty triggers. Ya a nice 1.75 lb 1911 trigger is sweet, but learning to shoot any trigger is a far more valuable life lesson.

KKM also has a LEO/Military & retired Mil discount.

Exactly Why should it bother people that don't even care to shoot it. This is after all a hobby....somewhere to spend our money and time on something we enjoy

NFA SBR's are legal to use in SCSA in rim fire. SBR's should also be allowed in PCC. If someone wants to pay to have an SBR why should they be disallowed from using it. Its no different from buying a $5000 pistol in Open while competing against $1200 self built guns. Someone is always going to cry because they don't have the same bells and whistles, usually because they don't want to spend the money. The truth is good shooters will always do better no matter what level of gun in their hand. PCC is another open category. let it be truly open with out arbitrary limits. It's not a production gun.

and the easiest way is for you to go to the SCSA web site and down load the current rule book. It isn't that big. Read it carefully and when a question arises always refer back to the rule book. There are a lot of myths at matches from people that have never read the rules. or things that people just make up. If it is a sanctioned match it must be run by the rules. If its "outlaw" or not sanctioned by SCSA then you better ask before you play.

Right now SCSA Production follows the USPSA rules for equipment.

Zack those are the same ones I found. Scott beat me to it.

Zack that is probably the biggest problem with the rules. Crossing two sets of rules is confusing. If SCSA wants to go buy the Prod gun list thats one thing......You should go back a couple of years before the rules were chopped with no input. Some of the lost rules were needed.

You are correct. In Prod.it must be shot DA first shot in each string. The only problem I have encountered with prod guns is the shooters don't understand that ULSC new shooters will use a decocker to drop the hammer. You have to watch them and make sure they drop the hammer with the trigger on the empty chamber. Usually after explaining the reason for this they understand.

What is the serial number threshold for old and problematic versus new and upgraded? I don't remember its been a while. I would expect that any on the shelves at suppliers now would all be good.

SCSA has its own set of rules. It never has had a min PF. There is no advantage you can shoot whatever you want.Just because your normal USPSA load is a higher PF than what someone else is shooting doesn't mean the other shooters should shoot a higher PF. Hell if that was the case then why is Prod class allowed to shoot Minor while other classes have to shoot major...Oh wait they have a choice to shoot the lower PF.....How about we just play by the rules for the sport we are shooting not another sport. Steel challenge is a totally different kind of shooting than USPSA.

You have 2 mins after the make ready command to take sight pictures loaded or not. The RO does not have the authority under SCSA rules to disallow a loaded sight picture during this time. The additional sight pictures is referring to in between each string, because it eats up a ton of time and slows the match. If a shooter loads the gun and while taking a sight picture fires a round it is a DQ for firing a round outside of a timed string. If You are going to RO you need to know the rules. Some think they can make up their own.

I have done it myself and sent another to SJC. Send it to SJC and let them do it. They have done many and know how to best install their product. You will not want to be removing and reinstalling it. Just set up another gun if you want to shoot IDPA You don't need the sideways mount if you use a Cmore RTS2 and you don't need to lower the ejection port.

Try Patriot cases. http://patriotcases.net/ He has sales going on right now also

You don't have to use that as a rule as 30 seconds is the max time limit for a string. If a shooter has an issue with a mag or a jam they should have the right to change mags or reload if they wish. Ya never know the next string may be worse.

I have 2 of the new (later serial numbers) RTS2. They have been flawless this year.Mine are not mounted on the slide and I do not run Major PF as they are on Steel guns. The one I bought last Nov. had to be returned immediately as it didn't work from the very first shot. On and off every other shot. The issues do seem to be worked out and it is an excellent upgrade from the original with 10 brightness levels and hold either up or down to shut off or turn on.

No The only thing a comp does for 22 is allow you to see the hit a little better on the way to the next target. You must keep them clean or eventually the comp will fill with lead. I have shot Buckmarks and Rugers both ways. Its a personal preference....I would just as soon keep it simple and not use the comp. You should know where the dot was at the moment the trigger broke.

I disagree - it should be clarified or at least discussed with USPSA. You are right it does need to be an exact starting point, or even go back to the 10' arc. The issue of how targets face should be stated in the rules also.

The targets should face the shooter for safety. If the target is facing the shooter it will destroy the bullet instead of allowing it to ricochet of the target. This does need to be clarified in the rules. No Matter how we set them this game is dangerous but we can avoid more problems by having the bullets impact perpendicular to the target.

AHH now I see your problem. The matches aren't set up properly. Every match in this area either uses an orange cone, a flag or a sign. I RO at almost every match I attend and I make every 22 shooter use the aiming point. Every shooter on my stage will play by the rules or else. It's only a fair match if we all play by the rules. The matches you shoot at need to set it up by the rules if it is an SCSA sanctioned match.

Rimfire start used to be a ten foot arc. Why should rimfires start from a set point when centerfire shooters can turn towards their start target. Whats the difference between a ground start point and 2 feet in the air....as long as shooters play fair there is no difference Classifications are part of the rules. Remember for 99% of the shooters this is a hobby...It's supposed to be fun

I'd place money that case was damaged when loaded (and not when fired). Yup I agree. Looks like it was misaligned at the sizing die, but still got loaded. actually surprised that it went in the chamber.

you just want it tight enough that normal depriming won't move it. It is designed to slip if something is in the case blocking the flash hole

That's where it should stay to decap because the inside of the case is pushing it there. If it goes higher then a stuck primer or something in the case caused it.

How's Georgia for Steel Matches? Don't care if they are SCSA or outlaw
