  1. looks good to me. the reason you see the wasp shape is the 9mm luger case is tapered.
  2. he can buy the PD JHP for the same price of 8.9 cents. no exposed lead in the back to clog his comp. https://www.precisiondelta.com/products/9mm-124gr-jhp/
  3. unless you are getting a great deal on plated bullets , i would go with a FMJ. i looked at the extreme web site and the plated are more expensive than PD 124 when bought in 2k .
  4. even better. usps usually would get my stuff in 2-3 days , while ups would take a week to get to the west coast. . truthfully you guys were the odd man in the bullet biz as every place i have bought bulk bullets from used usps FRB. keep fedex and ups for the loaded ammo since you guys are using usps now , you might consider making 65-70# cases of bullets like most of the industry. i would have no issue buying 3-4 k rd cases if doing so gets a discount
  5. i ordered the cyber monday special 10% off. they shipped it today and i should get it by friday. this time they used usps where in the past it was always ups. gotta be patient. many of you don't remember when we had to write a check or get a MO and send it in the mail to order stuff.
  6. i gave a creeping procedural to a shooter once. it was one of those perfect timing things. milliseconds before i pressed the button he moved his hand to draw. the target was so close that before i could if i were to stop him he had started shooting. After the match while eating we reviewed some vid of the said offense. after many reviews at many speeds he agreed that he did jump the beep. if i had time to stop him before he started shooting then i might have just restarted him, but it happened so fast. its one of those very odd perfect timing things
  7. update. i bought 10 m3 x 25mm roll pin off of Ebay for $1.69 it fit perfect in the GP. i dry fired with the new pin 100 times and punched it out to check for damage. to my surprise there was no damage. The oem GP ones must be soft or these are harder. the oem seems to be a roll pin with a smaller roll pin inside. don't understand why or know if its really needed here are the ones i bought https://www.ebay.com/itm/M1-5-M2-M2-5-M3-M4-Spring-Pins-Split-Tension-Roll-Pin-Black-Zinc-Plated-Steel/183389643649?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=690699437559&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
  8. if one goes online there are a lot of web sites with torque specs for specific sized fasteners. a M3 screw is torqued about 1.5 nm or 13.3 inch pounds. its what i used for my FF3. anything more i am sure would start to round the head of the allen wrench. when i had my DPP i torqued the screws to 25 inch pounds and when it came to time to take it off i rounded the torx holes. https://www.holo-krome.com/uploads/7/2/7/5/72754089/hk_torquedatachart.pdf
  9. has anyone seen their open gun in the wild? i was gonna order one when they first came out, but was waiting for some people to review it. it been over a year and it seems that while they say they are out there , i have not read anything online about them . So has anyone seen their open gun at a match ?
  10. I Dq'd a gentleman last weekend for drawing early on a uprange start. i was neither the timer ro or pad ro , but was the other ro working the squad. i usually don't say anything unless its so blatant like this shooter did. many saw it and agreed it was kosher. i have seen so many missed D/Q 's in the years i have been shooting uspsa that i just consider it one of those things that happens .
  11. if he shot over the amount of shots allowed on the virginia stage then add a extra shot penalty . if not its just a extra hit penalty
  12. i sent my DPP last month not even related to this issue. still have not got it back. they told me that they are not sending any out to sell or one in for repair back to the owners. they are trying to solve some kind of issue before they sell them them again. i asked how long and the guy on the phone said he has no idea. could be days or months. he said just wait for the tracking email . So send them back at your own risk i wonder if you issues are one of the things needing fixing
  13. So i sent my dpp to leupold a month ago. i called today to check up on it and the guy told me that all DPP are on hold for some kind of fix. don't know when its gonna be fixed and returned. very dissapointing .
  14. my trusty pro chrono digital decided that it was not worth staying in this world and jumped in front of a bullet. a call to the comp electronic factory was in order. the nice lady told me it would be half the retail price and shipping . seeing that msrp is 115 for it that 57.50 for the repair and $12 shipping. the cost for me to ship it to the would be about $12. That's $81.50 for the math challenged. i see them all the time on sale for a $70- 80 online . So those that did send on back to the mothership, how much did they charge you?
  15. so those that sent their DPP back to leupold , how long did it take for them to contact you? they received mine last friday and i have not had anyone contact me . just checking before i make a pest of myself by calling?
  16. So did i. i sent them a email and pix and they sent me a new bow. Great customer service. Came from Germany in 2 weeks.
  17. anyone mount one on a frame mounted open gun shooting major? wondering if it will take the stress
  18. the roll pin that hold the firing pin gets deformed when dryfiring. then it get stuck in the fp hole. So does anyone make a solid pin for it that will not deform? i measured it at .122 x .950 .
  19. .205. what Sig should have done is include both sights in the box and let the end user decide depending on which way they decide to set up their X5
  20. yes it is. i had a email discussion with a Dawson tech. He said it was Sig that speced the sight height and Dawson knows its the wrong one. i don't fault dawson as you give the customer what they want .
  21. I called them also about my X5 shooting low. they told me that they are sighted in at QC . i told him that shooting low seems to be a common issue. told me he never heard of it. he told me that i could send it in to have them check it. he also told me that if i sent it in and they found nothing wrong they would charge me for both shipping and checking out the gun. i asked him what would they do to check it out. Do they have a lower front sight to fix the issue? No lower front sight is availble i was told. So if i send it in and they have no front sight and they determine that all is good in their opinion i am gonna be charged? screw that. it would be less to just by a new front from Dawson then take my chances with Sig. this is my first Sig in 25 years and will be my last. perhaps some of you have had good CS from them, but my experience is the opposite. never had this issue with SW, Ruger and others.
  22. someone needs to make a timer that takes regular AA batteries. 9 volts are not cheap and when you need one ,not always handy. AA and AAA are everywhere .
  23. I got a x5 last week. like many mine shot low. about 5" low at 50 feet. seems to be a common issue i called them about it and they said to send it in.guy on the phone said he never heard of this issue . i asked about just getting a new front sight and they said there are no other front sights. If i send it in and they determine that there is no issue they will bill me. Dawson said that warranty issues are warranted through Sig which i understand. don't know how Valerko was able to get them to send a new sight for free. i have owned glocks mp 2011 and others but this has soured me from Sig. So to get it right i need to spend $40 more
  24. want to get some bullets. anyone have a working discount code?
