  1. @belus47Ds in .40. Always ran with short or long ammo. Vaguely remember needing to do 9+1 for something (IDPA?) and worked great as well.
  2. I'm a minority, but my sstk mags always always ran. I ran 47Ds from the start. Other than occasional L10, though, never pushed for 10 rounds.
  3. BritinUSAs idea has been suggested before and is a great one. Another point that's been made is that everyone knows that Shooter "X" is better than Shooter "Y." "Y" has made GM through classifiers and "X" just hasn't connected on classifiers enough to get bumped. GM or M or D....everyone can readily establish who's better, regardless of classification.
  4. 14 pages of this, and who knows how many on "Limited Minor." Same people typing at each other in the same way as always. What I've never seen with USPSA is the BoD asking the members what they want. A poll from USPSA. You'd have to phrase your questions and multiple choice options carefully. You'd have to decide who would be allowed to vote on the division in question. I've only been shooting since 2000, I've lived in Areas 1, 2, 6 and 8 and have never once been asked by anyone in USPSA what my opinion was. As this forum slowly withers away, I (again) wish that USPSA had a legit forum. Somewhere between this forum and Doodie on the civility spectrum.
  5. Manually excluded. Maybe the club reported that they setup a classifier wrong?
  6. Interested. Also interested in what the builder has to say about these issues. There's more than one way to skin a cat, but sometimes they skinned the cat wrong.
  7. Beretta 96. Remember a typical self defense gunfight is 3-5 feet.
  8. .140 is monstrously big. Try .090 and be prepared to be amazed and what you were missing before.
  9. When did this forum get so snarky? Did it happen suddenly or gradually?
  10. Very very very cool post/topic. Any chance you can post the various videos?
  11. That was the first thing that came to mind. There's others, but that's where I went first. Ordering a zillion primers from Eastern Europe isn't like ordering from Amazon, and I understand that.
  12. I spoke to them by phone late yesterday; seemed polite, articulate, reasonable. I am curious that they are no accepting credit cards for payment anymore; lots of possible reasons for that. BBB is not great, nor horrible. Yelp is the same.
  13. Anybody have more experience with them? Anyone actually received primers from Trifusion?
  14. It's varied over the years, but I can do some limited training at work in 0 minutes, or can drive 54 minutes for undisturbed/unlimited training. No kids, easy job, no other stressors.
  15. The best part is the "intermittent" element. Been there, done that on different guns/platforms over the years. How often is "occasionally?" The fact that it's intermittent tells me that it's a tolerance/fitment issue. If something was truly broken, for example, it would well, be broken and always happen. For fun, I would do the "mix and match" stuff you are talking about and take some notes as to what works with what. If it was me sitting there on the floor trying to cipher this out, I would replace the striker, and while doing that take a look at that striker channel. Maybe some dykem or Sharpie on the relevant parts to see if your theory is right, that maybe things aren't engaging when they should be.
  16. Nick why the long-ish time between M and GM? That progression to M was fantastic.....would have thought that tempo would carry on into GM
  17. Check your grip. Run some bill drills; given the ammo situation even 4 round strings will work. Make sure that sight is tracking straight up and down.
  18. Your video played fine for me; your plunk test sounded perfect. Where in Virginia are you? I'm local-ish and would be willing to meet to take a look at this stuff if you can't figure it out.
  19. Loading ammo right before a major match is fun and all.....but I would not show up to Area 1 with that ammo.
  20. What would cause or allow the guiderod to rub on the bottom of the comp. Gun runs fine until today; not 100% sure what happened, and couldn't diagnose the problem. Only oddball thing of note is the very slight rub marks on the bottom of the comp from the guiderod.
