velocity is velocity ... don't worry about barrel length

Has anyone been successful in making a ar15 gas gun work as a 9mm? What are the problems? Not enough gas?

don't guess ... get the data http://www.federalpremium.com/Ballistics_Calculator/ for me personally ..... 25yds

Your PCC reloads are proportional to your pistol reloads .... I'm not talking about once in awhile but 90% always. For me, I have gone from 1.0 pistol reloads to approx. 1.75/1.8 reloads with the PCC(PSA AR9 glock). Same technique as with the pistol but heavier. Remember ... a fast reload that ends up as a 'mike' isn't any reload at all. Practice and then practice some more. A par time on the timer is always .2 to .3 slower than at the match because of reaction time ... at a match there is no reaction time if you have planned well.

Well Dennis .... it seems to be a good year for crickets.

So ... an amateur can't win the match. We pay higher fees to be called a "pro" .... let's see, a family of four is priced out of the market because they can no longer win from the amateur pool. The one time per year that we get to shoot for order of finish is gone .... sounds like a "World Championship" to me. Where is Tim Norris in this 'discussion' ... let's hear from NSSF. Who are these learned shooters that you have consulted? I can assure you that the game is not getting better for the shooter ... just the organization. I have only been competing for 50+ years so I probably don't really know of which I speak. BS with perfume is still BS.

Why is it necessary to add a Pro Am .... is the sport not good enough as it is? Bulletin ... this should not be considered a 'pass through' sport ... it is good as it is. Not everyone is on the way to three gun. Most of us would like to shoot the game as it is. Family, friends, and competition is what it is about. Sometimes you should leave the cake recipe alone. If we all wanted to breath fire and play three gun, we would. The 'pros' are welcome anytime ... we do not have to beg them to spend time with us. Besides, some of us can really shoot or didn't you notice?

why don't you use the star but shoot within separate classes...... ie: top ten last year= Grandmaster/ 2nd ten=master .... etc.
