My understanding is that even when you are target focused, the dot should never be fuzzy or blurry anyway. If it it, your vision might need correcting.

Which brand are you talking about?
I bought 2 universal 45 degree offset mounts for AR's, and they came with a pile of different screws and pins. The pins were in different lengths and diameters for a specific dot. Same for the screws.
I'd think anything for a milled slide would be similar, but a dot reciprocating on a slide is taking more shock that one on an AR upper so the design may have to be all steel to work.
I was thinking of this CZ Custom mount:

I have a question regarding using a universal dot mount. The common optic footprints such as the Shield and Trijicon have sockets that are designed to fit onto pins/nubs (whatever they're called) on the mount. I assume the purpose of those is to help secure the optic even more. But on a universal dot mount, it's not going to have these pins, only the various tapped holes for the various mount screws. Is this likely to cause a problem with securing the dot, or are the two screws used to mount the optic generally adequate for keeping the optic secure?

For race holsters I have been told the DAA insert block for the Shadow 2 can be used, but don't trust me on that!

I'm surprised JP themselves don't have any 45 degree safeties...

I’m shooting irons. So if it’s tension of the firing hand which is right hand for me, what is a good tension? Strangely sometimes I call it to be a good shot with sights aligned and logos lift when it breaks but actual shot placement is way off to the left.
Hold the gun with just enough force in the right hand to stop it from being able to move freely. So grip it, and then try to push the gun around with your other hand. Then test it in live fire as well, see if you can feel the gun moving in your right hand during recoil. Once you've established what that force is, then do not grip the gun harder than that with the right hand. Instead, most of the grip pressure should come from your support hand.

I tried looking it up on ps. Nothing comes up

I've been suffering from this too to varying degrees. I asked Hwansik and he believes it's still firing hand tension, even if you're not pushing shots low.

I must confess, I've never seen this document. I shall review it more carefully.
In fairness, I can't seem to find it on the IPSC website itself. But I do know our NROI instructors worked to that manual, or some version of it.

Again ... As an IDOA RM, I am not aware of any IPSC requirement for this. Various NROIs may do it, but it is not an IPSC requirement.
BTW, I think it's probably a good idea.
I would share this IROA manual that also seems to deal with NROI certification:

Australia does similar
Same process in Northern Ireland.
Attend a classroom seminar, do a written test, three Level 2 matches as a student RO, and a practical assessment.

There isn't really a 'best' holster. Eric Grauffel uses a CR Speed. Christian Sailer uses DAA. They all do the job. I've personally only ever used the DAA holsters so I can speak to their high level of adjustability.

Question regarding replacing the JP5 stock trigger (that came with the competition model) with Geissele SD3G trigger...
1, Does the SD3G trigger work with the JP5? I read on another post that someone is having issues with getting the trigger to work on the JP5.
2, If the trigger works, do I use the pins from the JP5? Or would I need to get other pins?
3, If the trigger works, do I need to replace the safety? Heard there is a notch (or bump) on the JP5 saftey that restrict the function of the saftey with replacement triggers.
Appreciate any input and guidance!
Max has said in this thread that the SD3G worked flawlessly for him. I don't know what trigger he currently runs

Smart decision to roll back. Never understood why they prohibited it.
It was based on an interesting interpretation of the new wording in Item 16 of Appendix D

Looks like they will roll back on this decision?
Nothing official yet, but:https://www.ipsc.org/presidents-newsletter-september-2023/
Yes it was rolled back at the latest GA in Greece

That.Any particular reason you mentioned the TTI base pads for reload mags, in addition to the TF pads?
-
From what I understand, it wasn't straight up rejected but deferred to a future vote. The issues that had to be resolved were 1. what is the purpose of the division and 2. how to acheive said purpose

5. JP sells them and you can add TF extensions. Or you can do places like Gunmagwarehouse etc. Glock big sticks with TF basepads are the standard. Snag a Magpul drum for the lulz and outlaw stages. Add 1-2 TTI easy off basepads for reload mags and you're good to go.
Are you talking about the TF 'Goliath' basepad with the 'sword grip'?

thanks for sharing this graphic, I was trying to figure out how to post it as well.
Was happy to see the second dot was allowed again in PCC. That rules interpretation was terrible.

Proposal for standard optics division was rejected at the GA today in Greece. I suspect it'll re-appear in the future.
-
I think that's one reason some people put heavy brass grips on, to try and balance it?

On what part of the trigger bar did they remive material? I've recently gotten into tinkering with CZs and learning all I can
I believe it was this part, which when you pull the trigger, moves back and disengages the sear from the hammer.
After removing the material, when the slide pushes the trigger bar down, that part will no longer disengage the sear
-
Maybe try loading up some dummy rounds, and alternating live rounds with dummies. I used this to diagnose some issues when I was shooting doubles. I'd pull the trigger twice, the second shot should be a click, and I can see exactly what my hands are doing.

So the Kore inner belt works well with the DAA Lynx outer with a ratchet buckle?

Can you state the rule for this please?
