  1. Might be good information, but I am skeptical without something else to substantiate it.
  2. Mea Culpa. Don't know of anyone who is not just trying to do the best they can to keep things safe & according to the written rules. Honest differences in interpretation of what is written can be a bitch.
  3. I don't know any r.o. that fits your description of most r.o.'s.
  4. Interesting. I accidentally put a 40 in a 45 mag once, the brass expanded to the chamber diameter but didn't split and the round sounded like a very low charge squib, I figured it was sort of a thing where once the brass exceeded the bullet diameter the pressure was relieved almost immediately. Live and learn. Or try to anyway .
  5. Had CGW mill a CZ 85 for my carry optics gun, they do a great job.
  6. Open gun? Surprised that their would be shrapnel instead of the brass staying in one piece.
  7. CZ's oppose the trigger, Tanfos assist the trigger. You can get a fantastic trigger with a FPB CZ, we are splitting hairs.
  8. 180 grain bayou - 5.7 Power Pistol - 1.18 OAL . Some don't like power pistol because it is a slow powder & a bit boomy, I didn't notice the boomy & just liked the longer push at lower pressure as a matter of principle.
  9. "WTB Sp01 or Shadow 2" Have seen some very good deals on used guns here.
  10. I ended up doing hammer & disco & springs (and would have changed the sear if I kept it) to get happy on the S2, already had a rear sight pusher, do not know if that effects your math or if you would even be that fussy. At the end of the day I think it is whatever fits your hand the best is the best.
  11. Participation trophies for everyone!! (Like kids soccer and IDPA)
  12. POWER FACTOR = MOMENTUM = MASS * VELOCITY ENERGY = 0.5 * MASS * VELOCITY * VELOCITY I think standardized testing in schools might have been the beginning of the end for the USA.
  13. My Grandmother on my Fathers side was born on a Friday , so I think that means we should change from 10 + 1 to 11 + 1 mag loading limits.
  14. Major/minor will get you killed in a real gun fight.
  15. I hate the full sized poppers. Even with major sometimes you get hosed (reshoot or failure to fall) due to wind, target stand shifting in muddy ground, target reacting differently depending on which side of scoring zone you hit, ad nauseam. And they are a pain to drag around. Plates & smaller poppers are not perfect, but given the opportunity I leave the big stuff in the shed.
  16. That is how I see it, a game. I think when we see people carry pcc's or wear their limited - open - revolver rigs in real life for self protection, then it might be time to relate game rules to real life. Probably a minimum trigger weight should come first.
  17. Not a fan of the Dawson design for that gun. They can be made to work if you mar them for an interference fit & use loctite red but I'm unreasonably fussy about such things and my old eyes really like the 3.0mm wide EGD.
  18. It is a bit off topic but I read the same thing in the latest USPSA mag (area 1 candidate) and could not think of any reason why 99.97% of USPSA shooters would care what the FBI concluded about gun wounds or want it to effect their preferred pastime. If I was going to write up some sort of a trolling topic to rile up the shooters this might be it .
  19. Not true for me. Minor allows accuracy to be more of an equalizer and major is just a different kind of a thrill. My local club does a Friday - Saturday shoot each month, Friday. I shoot a Tanfo 9mm stock 2 in Production & Saturday I shoot a Stock 2 in 40 (fo-tey) in limited major, the difference in the experience is night & day & the planning changes a bit when Charles do not hurt much and a Delta is not about the same as a no penalty Mike.
  20. It seems like Tanfo mixes up parts just to piss you off. Anyway my newer stock 2 has a different rear sight leaf than my older stock 2. Newer is on the left. With my preferred front sight (Tanfo 1.5 mm f.o. or EGD 1.0 mm clone) I can't get height adjusted down far enough on the newer gun at left in the picture. Would need either a .02" shorter rear or a taller EGD front. Couple questions, anybody ever mess with grinding off the top of the leaf & grinding the window deeper? PD does not stock the taller EGD front sight, anyone know of somebody that you could buy them through (I'm in USA) ?
  21. "Changing body position" - maybe that only means the examples noted for 'movement' on page 59 or perhaps what he did qualifies, particularly because he thinks he pulled the gun back while swinging?? Dunno. Really like
