  1. Some do it some don't, all comes down to who fits everything and personal preference. If you have a gunsmith you use talk to them about options and see what they can do for you and their recommendations.
  2. Wow, these guys just keep coming out with more and more, don't they? I'd never seen that one before on their site. OP, here's the link to it - worth checking out their other products, as well.. http://inlinefabrication.com/products/flush-mount-quick-change-system-base-plate Only issue is that to make it flush fitting, you have to route your work space to fit the mount. After that is is a very sleek piece.
  3. I have a LnL that I've used for 9 for a while, only shot production, but then I picked up a SDB in 45 for cheap. It's lightweight, easy to use, fits your needs, much cheaper than the other option. If you are only going to be shooting 9mm for a while I second Jack's vote for the SDB. If you are dead set on one of those three, I give the vote two either the 650 or the LnL. Both have their quirks but once you get them set up they while serve you well. Also recommend the inline fab flush fitting mount for super easy removal.
  4. Check this thread out, they discuss options. You might be better off PMing some one off of there. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=204176
  5. A local guy to me runs a 220 gr coated bullet and a 10lb recoil spring, I have never seen him wait on the slide. Gun shoots baby soft as well. Try it out and see if you like it. Recoil is all about preference.

    My quest

    If you are gonna go the limited route I would suggest the 35, minor scoring doesn't help much. Taran's work is top notch though.
  7. That's how I was trained as an RO, leave the cameras out of it.
  8. If your gun is set up to last round hold open they will disengage that. Other than that I have seen many people run them with no complaints. They just are not as adjustable as some of the other flavors. All depends on your grip if this matters or not.

    The Gen 4's have a smaller frame so that might be a help if you have smaller hands as well. Good luck and stay safe.

    My quest

    That production kit looks like it has everything you need in a one stop shop. His hanger is a fantastic attachment an the ghost and be set up for bullets out, a plus in production. The TTI sights are well made and are DLC coated so no rust and the fiber is at the very top of the sight. Definitely won't go wrong there. IF you do decide to stick with glocks get a holster for a 34 it will fit most of the other ones. As for a recommendation, here is what I would do knowing what I know now. Stick with production, the G19 is fine for it, get some sights for it preferably tru-glos since it seems like you carry the gun, leave it stock except for the sights, get holster and pouches preferably used, troll the classifieds here or ask around locally, 5 G17 magazines for use with your G19 since it still fits in the box and the weight shouldn't put you over the limit and it gives you a little more grip. This way I could train with the gun I carry, try out other platforms before I purchase a gun that I have to "love", and save up some money for said gun. But remember, the price of the gun is not the expensive part. That is the accessories, ammo, match fees, travel, lodging, training. See if you can try before you buy. You might fall in love with that guys new Accu-Shadow or the Stock 2 that other guys runs.

    My quest

    Sounds like you have a game plan, getting better should come fairly quick especially if you are using Steve's book. Just notes from personal experience in no particular order. Better equipment is nice but it is not mandatory. Run what you brung is a saying for a reason. If you do want to upgrade I would ask around to your local guys and see if you can borrow different kinds of holsters and pouches before you decide to buy anything. Most of us end up with box full of stuff we didn't click with. That Glock 19 is more than enough gun to get proficient with. Again I say run it for now and see if any local guys will let you try out their guns. Most of us jumped from different platforms as well, that also adds to the box of holsters. Yes, a longer sight radius will make longer distance shots easier. It's the Indian and not the arrow. I have seen many a shooter use a 19 or even a 26 and run them very well. If you want to buy another gun do so to your hearts content. But it also depends on what you want to shoot. A Glock 17L is not on the production approved list. That holster part you asked about is a DOH, Dropped and Offset Holster. Gives us a little more information about sport and division you would like to pursue and we can make better recommendations. Good luck and stay safe.
  12. I would highly recommend hitting up an Appleseed shoot if you have any that come to your area. Usually done with .22's but you can use 223 if your range permits. Good luck with the little ones. They are the future of our sports.
  13. I have fairly large hands. With standard size magwells I can't get my full palm on the grip as the meet from the bottom is longer than the magwell. If I grab the gun incorrectly I fail to deactivate the grip safety. Hell I have even run one without a magwell just because of the grip. If you have a problem like I do the Dawson big ice might be for you. I still have problems with it though. I've also heard good things from bigger handed guys about the BAM and the Cape magwells. I don't have the experience with them though. Good luck and stay safe.
  14. IHMSA, Do you have a rig for steel in a centerfire calibre? If so sign up for the Gator match. You should be familiar with most of the rules and as long as you are safe jumping into a level II is not so bad. Get a few matches in before and you'll be even better. Be safe and have fun.
  15. Thanks. I definitely plan on checking out the club. A buddy and his wife shoot some of the matches from time to time. I'd love to try shooting steel. Looks like lots of fun. It's a friendly bunch, even better if you are already friends with some one there. Hope to see you out.
  16. Welcome to the forum. I am local to Markham park. SFPC is a great club to shoot with. We have weekly practice matches on Thursday nights, first Sunday is our USPSA match and second Sunday is our SCSA match. If you have any questions about the club feel free to ask. Good luck and stay safe.
  17. Second third or fourth on wanting a copy as well.
  18. Here is your translation for the bill drill times you put up. normal speed (lets say 12A) 60/15= 4 HF faster speed (lets say 6A 3C 3D) 48/8= 6HF according to Classifiercalc HF of 4 will be a 37% a high D while a HF or 6 will be a 55% a high C Which would you prefer? Hope this helped and good luck.
  19. Simply put, YES, you need to go faster. That being said. You cannot drop too many points or else it won't even matter how fast you can run a stage. Compared to the stage winner you had one more point but he had less than half of your time. Now let's run the numbers, let's say you dropped 20 more points. Crap that's a butt load. But you managed to cut your time in half. Maybe it was possible on this stage with your abilities maybe not. so your new HF would be 78/10.165=7.673 That would put you in 5th place. How does that sound? This is all a numbers game, play with them and you can see what you need to/should do. Best advice some one told me. Shoot alphas as fast as you can. Keep the accuracy and try to wring out as much speed as you can. Good luck.
  20. Keep that striker channel clean and dry, any lube in there will gum up the channel and cause this problem over and over again. Ask me how I know.
  21. What magazine do you have in it while they weighing and does it have any aftermarket base pad on it? In my experience the ten rounders are a tad bit heavier than the standard 17 ones. Let us know what your scale says. Good luck.
  22. I second EEHs comment. I have seen many come back to a sport to quickly after a a mild injury only to make the damage worse. I recommend to take a few weeks and make sure you heal properly before you go out and play.
