Another happy user of the CR Speed WSM 2 holster here.... Sent by Jedi mind control

I suck at this sport. That is all. OK - not quite all. Here is a video of probably my best stage from yesterday's level 2 IPSC match. 15 Alphas, 2 Charlies & 1 Delta in 21,51 seconds. Unfortunately it was pulled from the results because the last few targets were upside down. Usually I shoot too many make-up shots (although I typically shoot 90-93% of the available score) and I'm very very slow.... https://www.dropbox.com/s/c6xvmkh7c0bgq4n/Stage%207.mov?dl=0

TS Orange is an upgraded TS - made for IPSC standard division and meant to be bought in .40 for major The shadow 2 is a new shadow, based on the SP01 service pistol and designed for production division in 9mm. They are completely different guns - although there is also an upgraded Orange version of the original 9mm shadow as well Sent by Jedi mind control

I don't know this formula for recoil that you're referring to.Recoil is caused by conservation of momentum. The momentum of the gun moving back is equal to the momentum of the gas and the bullet moving forward. If both gas and bullet leave the barrel at the same velocity then their contribution to momentum is in the same proportion as their masses. Since the gas weighs less than 5% what the bullet weighs, its contribution is small. Sent by Jedi mind control

Unfortunately the science is not quite right. The bullet weighs more than 100 grains and the ejected gas only about 4 grains (since its equal to the powder plus some oxygen). Since we are talking about conservation of momentum, which is directly proportional to mass, its easy to see that the gases probably contribute 5% to the recoil at most.The comp doesn't work by stopping the gas going forward. It works by jetting the gas upwards, thus producing a force that counteracts the upwards component of recoil Sent by Jedi mind control

I suspect feeding chickens on tomatoes, parmesan cheese and mushrooms - so that they taste good - would get you accused of animal cruelty Sent by Jedi mind control

Did you have to mod it to work with your ts? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk No. Not at allSent by Jedi mind control

I would not do anything that drastic without trying simpler solutions first. I load to 28,8 mm as well and I've run through 25 000 rounds without a single malfunction. I always use a buffer. There may be issues with the modified magazines. Alternatively you can change the length (up or down) by maybe 0,5 to 1 mm to see if it makes a difference. There should be no need to make an irreversible change to a TS with a hacksaw. ..... Sent by Jedi mind control

The support bar comes straight down off the belt, so there is a steel "pad" against your leg. But the actual gun position is extremely adjustable to how you like it Sent by Jedi mind control

I use those and i think they're fantastic. But i use the +0,5 strength. It's enough to make my front sight crystal clear but i can still see the targets clearly Sent by Jedi mind control

Case lube..... Sent by Jedi mind control

Thanks. I thought it had been a conscious decision based on some standard way of doing things. I hadn't realised it might have been a "bug" Sent by Jedi mind control

As long as some part of each scoring area still remains Sent by Jedi mind control

Practiscore seems to do this too. Steel is scored, but doesn't show up at all in the count of A's. I find it extremely annoying Sent by Jedi mind control

Since the nickel cases are just brass cases plated with a microscopically thin film of nickel, there should be no reason for them to split more readily. If this is the case, though, then i wonder which aspect of the plating process is making the brass work-harden faster so as to split sooner. The engineer in me is intrigued Sent by Jedi mind control

We have that in IPSC The strippers came with the change in targets. Sent by Jedi mind control

The pain and embarrassment are good. They will drive you to make sure you never do it again. Nobody was hurt and you'll be a better shooter for having gone through this self-inflicted lesson. (Although it feels pretty crummy at the time of course) Sent by Jedi mind control

Looks tough. Might be easier to aim for the stands instead of the tiny targets on them Sent by Jedi mind control

Thanks for that. Yes - it is a rather unusual situation and that opens up a lot of "grey area" that's hard to deal with.... Sent by Jedi mind control

I use a CR Speed WSM 2 race holster for my TS. Works well for me Sent by Jedi mind control

In my opinion, someone who can shoot equally well with either hand dominant is going to be better than the rest of us - for the reason you mentioned, that sometimes a course is better for a left or right hander. But whether it is a good use of time to develop such a skill, versus training to improve some other aspect of your shooting - well that is a different story Sent by Jedi mind control

Hey I have all of that without the Xanax Sent by Jedi mind control

MP40guy - could you possibly post a picture. It may help.... Sent by Jedi mind control

Wow. People who ride bicycles are clearly more strange than us gun-nuts Sent by Jedi mind control
