This makes your pocket knife dull, better to leave the chunks in the gun

My point was that aiming harder after the reload is a match skill, not a reloading skill. If you want to improve your reload you need to concentrate on the reload, not everything else. Hand speed, removing unnecessary movements, these are important to a reload, aiming is not. Put the target at 5 yards if it helps you concentrate on what you're training on.

Stainless steel gun? They never quite look new in this area if you shoot them.

You need to shoot a match with my 625

How deep is the notch in the rear? If it's too shallow the fiber optic would look like a rising sun, this hurts my brain. In this case you could install a colored insert like the factory smiths use.

On what target? At what distance? If you're working with too difficult a shot, there's too many variables to really concentrate on the reload. Walk before you run.

If you drop your revolver on the hammer hard enough to break the hammer pivot, it's the only thing preventing a boom. They do not affect trigger pull as it is gravity pulling them down when you are operating the trigger.

... But Chiappa offers it from the factory

I'm not shooting a Rhino unless I can have a gold one

Why are you concerned about the small numbers in single stack? There is enough to have division recognition. They may not award high B class, but that's just a participation trophy anyway.

Move your rear sight to the left. My 627 is the same way, and it hasn't held back my shooting any.

There's 5 revo shooters, so we're officially a recognized division. Come on out and play.

Sweet. You shooting 6 or 8?

There's currently more Revo shooters than production or single stack. Anyone else wanna come play? https://practiscore.com/3rd-annual-gcas-border-wars/register

Those don't look like big numbers in general. How many shooters do you typically get at one of your local matches?

Where are you guys putting a detent that would affect the function of the crane when it's open?

There might be some heat in L6...

I'm the match director. The current plan is to hold the ICORE regional on Saturday and a Steel challenge match on Sunday.

I stand by my opinion that doing all of this with a partially removed hammer spur diminishes the level of safety involved.

If the revolver is cocked and want to lower the hammer, you would have diminished control while doing it. None of the drop safeties would help you as you need to pull the trigger to drop hammer. I don't use the single action on my double action revolvers, I'm not a cowboy.

Why do you feel a need to leave a shortened hammer spur? I feel that single action functionality on a bobbed hammer is unsafe. If I bob a hammer, I remove the cocking notch with a stone. Did your new hammer include a new hammer dog (double action sear)? I do the final shaping of the bobbed hammer with a bench mounted belt grinder. Dremel tools are useful for making additional work for gunsmiths.

They won't let you use a moonclip server in IDPA?

No. 40 caliber and up with an exception for 356 SIG.

Do you have a video camera? I have an old one on a tripod in my dry fire area. Film yourself and compare the differences. Do you have the same hand speed? Is your hand already at your belt while you're ejecting? Are you bringing the gun to your waist to drop the moon in? Do you break slightly at the waist to allow more room to get the gun more vertical? See how he let's go of the moon and moves his hand to the grip before the moon falls all the way in?

Google much?
