    Slide Bite

    I like Glocks, I like them a lot but don’t shoot them near as much as I would like due to slide bite. I’m a big guy, with extremely big hands. Size 15 ring for reference. Before I completely write them off, is there anything that I can do? I’m running the largest back strap with the beaver tail and the slide still chews up the webbing of my strong hang in between my thumb and index finger. I shoot several brands of handguns, and shoot them all relatively well so I don’t think my grip is wrong. Pic for reference
  2. I have been using Clean Shot for the last year or so have been extremely pleased with it! Although, I’d like to be able to get it for the same price as the OP!
  3. I just ordered one one of these on Friday. Hope it works well. If not, I’m sure Brownell’s will make it right
  4. I have always been in a similar situation. I really struggle trying to push speed in live fire practice. For me, it almost feels like you’re completely ignoring the fundamentals. As you said, it is necessary to get faster though. I will say that running Bill Drills has helped me a lot to understand what it feels like to shoot at that pace.
  5. My wife has shot a Springfield RO for the last year or so. Likely pushing 10k rounds with no issues. She loves that gun!
  6. Pulled my 10.5” SBR PCC out of the safe today for the first time in over a year. I’m undecided between the HF and the CMC. To me, the CMC seems kind of like the Glock of triggers, it may not be the best or flashiest but it will always go bang! Am I wrong in thinking this?
  7. Happy to see Holosun getting some much deserved love. I’ve been selling them since they came out and have been a huge fan. Guess all it takes is for a few of the “cool kids” to jump onboard and all is well.

    ZEV OZ9

    Color me intrigued. Seems as though they addressed all of the issues that a factory Glock has. I like it!
  9. Good point! Being that this gun will be used mainly for bay style shooting with hallways, ports, shoot houses, etc., I think I will go with the original plan first. 16” mid from Ballistic Advantage. If and when I find myself needing something different I can build a new upper using the knowledge gained from previous matches.
  10. Nice! I really need to get my hands on a 45. Seems it would be great for both carry and the games.
  11. I am in the process of acquiring parts to assemble a carbine for the carbine matches. My plan was to get a 16” mid length Hanson from Ballistic Advantage but most seeem to recommend an 18” rifle length instead. I’m a bit torn as somewhat of a carbine newbie as to whether I will be able to tell a difference or not? I’m currently contemplating the Odin Works 3 gun 18” barrel or just sticking with the original plan of the BA Hanson 16” mid. I can get the BA barrel for almost half what the Odin works will cost. However, I don’t mind spending the cash on things that I will benefit from. What are your thoughts? Other components that will make up the gun : Aero precision upper and lower Hiperfire Comp trigger JP SCS recoil system Lightweight BCG F1 Firearms 15” handguard SJC Titan Comp
  12. Definitely a viable option I suppose, but I was talking specifically about the Hanson series.
  13. Seems Ballistic Advantage no longer offers an 18” rifle length in their Hanson series. They have a 17.7” as well as an 18” but both are mid-length.
  14. The SP-01 can be made to be a very nice CO gun for not a whole lot of money. This assuming you don’t mind the DA/SA trigger.
  15. I also have both the SP-01 and S2. My SP-01 has lots of polishing and all of the CGW goodies. The S2 has all of the CGW goodies as well. As much as I want to like the S2 better, I think I prefer the SP-01. Both are milled for a DPP and used in CO division so the longer sight radius of the S2 is negligible.
  16. Thanks for the review. Difficult to justify spending that much more money with results so similar.
  17. Interesting read. Thanks for all of the info. OP, how do you like the AR Performance barrel? I’m contemplating the same type of build using the same barrel.
  18. I see a lot of people recommend rifle or intermediate gas system. What is the advantage of that over a mid length?
  19. Did you call to get a price? If so, mind sharing?
  20. Will be interested to hear the replies as I’m also in the market for a nice carbine that’s setup for the carbine matches.
  21. Say it louder for the folks that buy new gear everyday trying to fit in!
  22. I’m using the same ole Midway bag I’ve had since 2012. Perhaps this is why I don’t hang out with the cool kids?
