I'm struggling to get to 12,000 posts so I get the Brian Enos Gold Watch.    

Holy cow Jack!!!  It would take me a lifetime!  How many do I need for a thumbs up emoji?

I'm still working on proving I am worthy of posting in Classifieds.

Poor IDPA kind of reminds me of watching kids play war..."lets pretend guys".  The only thing worse is Cowboy action!

[Best route to get into Open]

Just a thought is to buy an M&P, XD or Glock that is milled for CO.  Get your mags and a red dot.  Try it for a bit and if you like the dot and want to try open you can buy a quick drop in barrel and comp from Carver Customs for around $300-$400 bucks.  It is the cheapest way to try open or CO and see which you enjoy.  If you buy a CR speed or Ghost race holster you can adjust it for CO or a comp easy.  With this setup you could shoot limited, CO, or open for a little over a thousand bucks depending on how many goodies you want after that.  Happy experimenting!!!

I think I have used them all and have settled on the lucas brand lube. It doesn't burn off like some of the other brands out there. 

I agree...very good luck with Lucas

 

[DIY - Poppel Holes]

Good thread guys thanks for the info!

 

[Thin vs thick oil]

I used to try the Slideglide lite but it was too thick unless it is 100 degrees outside.  My gun wouldn't cycle properly especially on cold days.  I messed around with Rem oil and such but it didn't seem to stay put.  So I switched to Lucas and have had really good luck.  A couple drops and they slide stay well lubricated for a long time.

Hadn’t heard of this, thanks for the heads up!

[Aftec extraction problem]

Thanks for your comments everyone.  I have used an Aftec for sometime now with 0 issues but I like it when people point out potential issues that will help diagnose problems that can arise.  You guys are great!

If you saw my guns you'd see there is no fear.

Interesting concept of tuning the gun to the load.  I'd love to try that some day when I become rich and famous.

[How to properly lock the strong hand wrist]

Yeah gotta love the know it all’s that can watch a video and rip on a GM that can actually shoot.

[Shooting Open gun by feel]

Leans and corners sure challenge a red dot.  I have found that slide mounted optics are easier to index shoot because you still have a similar angle to iron sites.  Frame mounted optics can leave you guessing a bit due to the compensation we make to see the dot.

[Airsoft training]

I have had good luck with the WE’s.  They are reasonably priced and do help with live action fire during the cold months.  However nothing beats the real thing,  but it is a great way to introduce your kids.  So I highly recommend them.

I believe he has stopped making guns. I saw a post from him awhile back about not doing it anymore. 

That’s too bad.  He did good work.

Never heard of the SLB or Everglades they look impressive.

If the Glide does not provide perfect function in all temperature ranges, you can "cut it" with any petroleum based oil.

 

The last few comments prompted me to dig into my Slide-Glide / endorsement folder. I'll post some comments...

Thanks for the information that is helpful I will give it a try.  I always liked the concept of slide glide but when I had the hiccups I quit using it.  Thanks again!

And that is why Slide Glide Lite exists

Says the guy with 25.535 rounds of PCC happiness with the products...

 

As the webpage says: 60+ degrees F  for Slide Glide,  30+ degrees F / All Firearms  for Lite

Yep I have the lite and still have seen this problem.

[Has anyone ever been hurt by a 180 violation ?]

Heh, I’ve asked local MDs to define their 180. When I did, they decided to move targets and/or throw out the stage. No reason to continue to reinforce that the rules prevent them to intentionally trap people to break 180s, we get that, but it still happens. I literally heard a dude say “I designed this stage to make you watch your 180! I wanna DQ a few of you fast guys!”

That’s what I mean when I say I hate the 180 rule.  It’s these type of guys that purposely try to get you in trouble that make it a hassle.  Cause if you complain they get upset or say that you just like to game it or run too fast.  I JUST WANT TO SHOOT!  Set things up in a safe but fun array and let’s shoot don’t try to mess with people especially since it really affect new shooters that may not come back if they don’t like the atmosphere or technicalities.

[Welcome to the Slide-Glide Forum]

I do have to disagree with Slide glide.  If you shoot on a cool to cold day it can cause malfunctions.  Thought it was my gun at first and then found many of the guys I shoot with had had the same issue. Just food for thought.
