No you still don't understand. You are going to be FASTER shooting major, because you can aim less.

The people that say to run it back to back are right. Go out with both guns, build some stages, and compare your hit factors between major and minor. It should be so obviously evident to you after that, that this thread wouldn't have to exist.

The general aiming area you are using does in fact get larger, therefore you can go faster, when shooting major. With minor yes, the gun recoils slightly less, but the target area is smaller so you must be more precise and go slightly slower. 2-3 extra rounds is small advantage, on a small percentage of stages. I shoot CO and Limited currently, and on field courses I will do one reload in both divisions. On the rare 22 or 23 round stages, I don't have to reload in CO, but there is almost always a place to fit in a reload if you have to on those stages. I've timed myself and if the position involves 3 steps or more, it's not any slower to do a reload compared to not. If it was an advantage in any way at all, don't you think someone would try it at a major level match? NO one does. The closest thing you have is in Single Stack, where you get 25% more rounds in your gun with minor. In that case it may be worth it, but nationals results still say Major is better.

It's not that the advantages to minor are negligible, it's that there are none.

Consider this.... When you shoot major, the target get bigger. Can you shoot a larger target faster than a smaller one? (I can't believe I even bothered to reply in this thread, lol)

If that's what you want to do and your members are into it, fine. But that's one example of a club I'd never ever go to.

He made it blue so you better listen

Does any of that matter? A brace is specifically disallowed, regardless if it's a rifle or pistol or AOW or firearm...so yea, a rifle with a brace isn't suddenly a pistol, but it's still not legal for the sport. So what are you saying again?

Well every hammer is legal now so...

I have been told the RMIs and DNROI have been discussing this...any word?

lol wow. Now to me that is a lot different than a gun that MAY be an ounce over weight. That guy would have to get moved to the correct division. Since he's new I wouldn't bump him to Open, I'd just have him moved to Lim minor

I'd let them know they are likely to get nailed at a Level 2+ match should they shoot that gun, but I'm not really going to chase him around bothering him about it. I suppose if I saw him every week and it looked like he wasn't ever going to change it to be legal I'd have something else to say.

To clarify, if your section is huge and holds a ton of matches and submits a ton of activity fees, it will get more slots, and generally award those slots proportionately to the clubs that brought in the most people.

That's how they determine how many slots your section gets to give out. Your section is free to distribute them as they see fit. Some have a points series of some sort to earn you way into, some sections give them to the MDs to give to their best workers (or to keep for themselves) and I'm sure there are some other ways. The slots based on previous finishes come directly from USPSA and the email usually says that's what it's for.

Their rationale has always been that SSP frame mods should be reversible, for whatever reason

I would say go as long as you can stay focused, but you can make great gains doing moderate training, 15-30 minutes a day 4-5 days a week.

Never compromise, even in the face of armageddon

Add another reason IPSC is worse than USPSA

yup, thanks

How many clubs are there down there? I'd consider not going to this one anymore until your skills improve, and then return and lay waste to the entire place, and have them declare you their king.

Kensight, .115 notch. Not sure if it comes that way or if Matt cut the ears down

I have an .090 Dawson in my gun. Yours is probably a .100. You can check it out tomorrow

Never heard of this but I do USPSA, not IPSC. Was this in Canada?

Nice!
