  1. Did you try this? jared@binaryeng.com
  2. Let's please keep primer availability posts in this thread: https://forums.brianenos.com/topic/295483-anyone-know-where-to-find-primers/
  3. The ads get locked but not deleted. It helps people find pricing history that may help them set the price for an item or appraise a new ad. This is the same reason that we don't want people to delete information when an item is sold! Thanks, ChuckS
  4. Hi Neal! In most views, you can also click the elapsed time and get the last post...
  5. You will probably have better luck getting an answer here: https://forums.brianenos.com/forum/200-cz/
  6. To death, this has been beat...
  7. The holster used to have to keep the frontstrap above the top of the belt in Single Stack. That rule has been changed to align with the other pistol divisions.
  8. FWIW, all I ran in my 9mm STI were SPS tubes. Set up by Grams, I got 30 rounds reloadable in the 170's. Beven like working with the SPS tubes because you could actually tune the tubes and they would not try to crack like SV tubes. This was some years ago so the world may be different but if SPS offers an off-the-shelf solution, go for it!
  9. Since the cases roll on the mag walls and not ribs, like the 40 tubes, adding 2-3 rounds may just add enough weight and friction to to make a marginal setup fail. Even with tubes that were tuned by Grams were still "sensitive". I eventually converted to .40 It has been a long time but I seem to recall the Arredondo's pads offered one less round than the Grams. I think they worked though. The guy who was making the mag catch was Canyon Creek but I have heard he has shut his doors. Any gunsmith should be able to weld some material on a metal mag catch. If I remember correctly, the factory catches were plastic. This was my mag catch mod for the slim taper of the STI tubes: And, of course, the Ed Brown part is out of production. And, I just remembered this: Back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, STI made "for Para" tubes that put the notch were Para wanted. You may want to put out an APB for such things.
  10. A few things: 1) I used to run STI tubes in my Para open guns. They "fit" fine. The only difference was location of the mag catch hole. The STI would sit about 1/8" lower. There used to be a built up mag catch for Para available that would hold the magazine higher. The more narrow taper of the STI tube may require the mag catch to sit a bit deeper in the frame. I had mine modified to sit deeper. The gun might work with unmodified tubes if the feed geometry is good. Which brings us up to ... 2) The stacking of the rounds in the transition area is controlled by the tube spacing of the taper. If it is wrong, the mags will likely be unreliable. That taper needs to be correct if you want the mags to be 100% 3) The Grams Para basepads have been out of production for years and I really doubt that they will ever be produced. I did have some luck with Arredondo but my go to basepads on Para tubes were Dawson which are also out of production. 4) Para used to sell mags with some sort of coating. The only way I got them to 100% was to remove the coating and get the tubes hard chromed. They worked for years with zero corrosion. I did have a few of their blued tubes which were fine as is.
  11. It was a single sided mount by Arredondo holding a Leupold Delta Point Amateur.
  12. Here's mine: It happened at the 2014 Nationals.
  13. The staff shared some photos: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S-6vplOWNlmFVn4s9OKCaU5ICxkG3dhE?usp=sharing
  14. The Society website has been dead for a long time. Expect some sort of bogus re-direct(s).
  15. Richard Heinie is on squad 3 of the 2022 SSC. He should have some idea where the scores may be found!
  16. I thought the discussion of old SSC scores deserved it's own thread Now Bob can have his thread back!
  17. I asked TGO if he had any idea who may have the scores and he said he had no idea but he could help with who won
