  1. I have screwed around with this quite a bit and the best shots we got came from the head strap. I did a muff mount and it was very shakey from movement and long gun recoil. It also transmits a ton of negative sound to the mic. I highly recommend running it concurrent with a smartphone or hand cam. This gives you two angles and a much better soundtrack.

  2. You may want to consider switching to a stipple grip. There are some obvious drawbacks, permanence being number one, compliance for your shooting sport and class is another. I switched a few months ago and really like it for my 3 Gun pistol. Very positive - not nearly as aggressive.

  3. Hi, I just picked up one of the 24" JM Pro's last week and so far so good with about 70 rounds through it. I have a newbie question regarding whether it is worth keeping the barrel clamp on or simply removing it? I'm not sure it is worth the hassle of dealing with it every time you want to disassemble the gun and the potential for it impacting POI as I have read. Are there any tangible benefits in using it?

    Thanks!

  4. The Burris does hold its zero but is a little on the bulky side compared to the Larue and QD. Mine came with the Burris 1-4 I started with and has never done me wrong. Having said that I have switched this season to the Vortex glass and am looking for a lighter and less bulky mount. Not sure if this applies to you but I have been looking at 2 of the low profile Vortex rings. I run an ace skeleton and could still get a a good look through the glass and maintain a solid cheek weld while bringing the optic down several millimeters closer to the barrel. Might be worth looking at and would love to hear from the more seasoned shooters on this approach.

  5. Hope Im not hijacking the OP's topic here but, when you say "remove your pistol ... if the CF does not require it" how does one do that within the rules of 3gun ? I know rules are different at almost every match, but is it a general consensus that its allowed at a "safe table" ? then can it just stay in the holster ? Or does it need to be in a case ?? Im pretty sure ya cant just whip it out ....lol

    It's retained in the holster never removed just removing the holster. It is as inert in the holster on the cart as it is on the belt. I always ask the RO if he is okay with it and never had a problem yet. Before I had the ELS we would just call the range hot and bag the guns if not needed or find a safe table.

    ahhh thanks ... I'll be sure to make sure the RO is ok with it.... would suck to get my pee pee slapped right outta the gates ..... :unsure:

    I don't like running with my belt on all day and take off any un-required gear whenever I can. I recently added a Tek-Lock to my holster for this very reason. So far every match has considered my pistol in the holster as cased - I think the idea of checking with the RO is very sound and will take your advice.

  6. I use the simple Blade-Tech Revolution AR mag pouch. It can be used bullets facing backwards or forwards. Try working the process in reverse to find out what works best for you. With the rifle shouldered, take the magazine out with your loading hand and lower it to your preferred mag pouch location. What feels most natural? Run with that.

    Great advice - +1 on the blade-tech mag holder.
