Got anymore Stock II's Gump? lol
Not right now but if I keep enjoying open like I have then I may have to part with another one to get a backup Gold Team, lol
PM me if you decide. These things are harder to find then a needle in a haystack. Haha

How in the world did you manage to get them??
-
I have plenty of stock for reloading rounds. It is a good idea to think about and I did which is why I stocked up on supplies in advance. I shoot steel as well with 1911's so I have a variety of bullets and powders.
-
All good info, Thank you. GebeBray, That is a lot of work that is way above my ability. Looks like if I decide to go this route I will need to Dollar up and get it done right from the start,

Better to start off not knowing then to end up wanting in mid season right?
-
Starting USPSA for the first time. Production class. Begin with a stock SP01 or start with CZ Custom shop modified from the get go?

I placed an order with a well respected Gunsmith to build a 1911 framed open Steel Challenge pistol with an RTS2 optic. After searching, finding and reading this thread, and many others, I am concerned about the choice of the optic. I understand that steel shooting doesn't jostle or shock with the same force or power factor from ammunitions as USPSA open firearms, but I still don't want to be without a dot in the middle of an event. Does anyone have an opinion on a Deltapoint or a Trijicon RMR? I was considering changing before holes are drilled and it's to late to change things. The RMR Dual Illuminated seems very interesting to me.

What I noticed most was that it was smooth movement which I assume kept your accuracy up. Moving with legs positioned athletically to keep balance and proprioception. Excellent video!
-
Excellent description! Thanks Mad Scientist!
-
What's the actual difference between the Large and small frames? I understand one is obviously bigger then the other but is it width, height or both?
Probably a dumb question but I'm asking anyway.

How in the world did you get the Elite Limited magwell to fit on your Elite Match? I would love to have that!
-
That would be awesome! Thanks! Seems most people who have had problems have had them with 9mm. Just happens to be all I want to compete with.

I have an open steel challenge full 1911 Caspian race gun being made right now by Akai Customs. Race ready frame and custom cut slide and all the tricks of the trade put in it. I really wanted to also do a limited full Caspian Hi-Cap but the magazine reliability issues just won't let me pull the trigger on it.
-
This has been a fantastic thread to follow. I can't wait to see more.
-
Ever find your answer to this question? I am looking but that rail mount on the bottom of the frame is a killer with holster fit.
-
I bought a Witness Match Elite, and love it, but wish I would have given forethought to the magwell situation first for use in USPSA. Full size but I guess not a competition frame although a competition gun.
-
Thanks for the information! Great looking gun BrazeauRacing!
-
Is that welded on or did you epoxy it? Looks great by the way!
-
The only one I could find find is the Canyon Creek and that would have to be welded on. I have read that some have epoxied this on but that doesn't seem like it would hold very well or for long to me. So my question is.... Is there any other magwells for the Elite Match and is having the magwell worth it when shooting USPSA?
Thanks,

Using 147gr bullets 2.9gr works well out of a shadow. Makes 117pf
What #recoil spring are you using?

I have 3 of their 2211 conversions, and 8 magazines, mainly for Steel Challenge. I've never tried using a different mag with the conversion. The mags can hold up to 12 rounds, but it is advisiable not to cram that many rounds in, unless it's just plinking.

All I will be using this for is steel challenge. Just wanted something to shoot besides my limited STI/Caspian. Was hoping someone made an alternative mag but it appears, from your comment, I should stick with what they make.
-
Anyone using a Tactical Solutions 2211 conversion on their 1911? If so, are there any magazine alternatives or are you stuck with the $80+ TacSol's?
-
Just ordered my second "NitroFin" Cudaman. Loved the thumb position so much on my 2011 limited steel gun I decided to put one on my open rimfire 1911.
Match 9mm bullet dia question
in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)

I use 125gr Black Bullets, .356, and they are super accurate. I can't imagine trying to jam a larger bullet down the barrel for no reason. Just my opinion.
