[Swingers]

Ours aren't - which is why I am interested to see the different designs

[Swingers]

Nice. It does look very similar in size to the ones we use at our club

[Swingers]

Here in South Africa our swingers tend to move them over a circumferential distance of maybe five feet. At 20 feet per second that means a movement back and forth four times every second. Your swingers must be different to our ipsc ones. Are they longer, or differently actuated? I'd be interested in a photo if you've got one, to see the differences

[PC Based Training]

That's the one

[Opinion of Major vs Minor Scoring]

357 sig is required by law in some countries - although optional in places with less restrictive legislation, like the us - where there is no reason for it to be popular

[IPSC vs. USPSA Production Verification of Rules]

Correct on both counts

[Tac Sport throat reaming!?]

For my TS, I load to an ipsc power factor of 176 using 200 grain frontier cmj bullets, at a length of 28.8 mm (1.134 inches). No problems at all with pressure. I've also used cheaper bullets with a different profile - again with no issues.

Are you sure about the pressure problem? The signs can sometimes be deceptive in a pistol if your primers are on the soft side.

[Transition Drills]

I use the Hopkins drill in Ben's book. I put small round stickers on my bedroom cupboards and stand really close - so the transitions are wide

[TS jam problem fixed?]

My TS is extremely sensitive to dirt in the mags. I'm sure that was the problem.

[Does anybody have measurements for height of czc magwells for Tac spor]

This is the CZ-UB one for ipsc

[Ben Stoeger's 15 minute Dry Fire Program]

True. That is cheaper. But I prefer my training book to be made of paper.

I did buy Brian's book electronically, and that worked great - but it's not the same as working on a book full of drills - then I prefer paper. Maybe I'm just old.

We also pay about twice as much for guns as you guys do in the USA. Then we have to wait around six months for a licence to take possession (if it's granted). You have it good over there (apart from California, of course)

[Ben Stoeger's 15 minute Dry Fire Program]

I have bought Ben's books.

But here in South Africa, they cost more than 80 dollars each - which is pretty expensive in a third world country. Our firearm market is just too small to be cheap

[Converting Limited from 10mm to .40 S&W]

I've always heard people say that, but the nickel plating on the brass is only microns thick. It really shouldn't have any effect.

I only shoot nickel plated .40 and it lasts fine, as far as I'm concerned

I don't know if anybody has done a real study on the difference in life

[Bul M5]

Now is probably not a good time. It's our biggest gun show because it's pretty much our ONLY gun show

[Looking for Drill Suggestion]

Definitely trigger control. It's a very common problem - I have it myself when I rush

[Lee Pro 1000 Tip & Tricks]

There are two screws that hold the powder reservoir on top of the charge bar. If they are too tight then the bar doesn't move freely and you will get light charges or empty cases. Try loosening them a bit and all should be well

[If you had to choose between one of these two]

Here in South Africa, the vast majority of production guns are CZs. I can therefore get any part for my TS from my friendly local supplier within a day or two. 1911 parts are much much harder to find. It's nice that it's easier for us here than in the USA - because for most firearm-related things we're an ignored backwater in the global supply chain

[List of 100% Hit Factors]

Now if only we could get the same thing for the ipsc classifiers.....

[Mag Cleaning]

If the retaining dimple won't pop up through the base plate, I usually push it in and let it back out (like you would when disassembling them). They usually pop straight back up when I do that

[scoreing from rule book ?]

Which rule covers a sudden stop caused by alien abduction of the shooter? And can an abducted shooter still claim a prize

[Nosedives]

Yeah. My TS is really fussy about having clean magazines. The slightest bit of grit and they stop feeding

[Recoil spring question.]

We can really only get original cz parts here in South Africa, so I'm afraid I can't offer any advice on other options

[Recoil spring question.]

The hammer spring is actually quite easy to change. The lighter hammer spring makes the double action trigger pull much nicer. The change is often coupled with an extended firing pin and a reduced power firing pin spring ( the rami one ) to make sure you don't get light strikes.

The lighter recoil spring is to adjust the recoil action to the lighter loads used at minor power factor, so the front sight returns as quickly as possible for follow up shots. But this is probably not advised for full power factory loads

[Does someone know what a course with Eric Grauffel costs?]

I believe so.

I guess the course may be cheaper when he's "at home"

[Does someone know what a course with Eric Grauffel costs?]

He just ran a course here in South Africa. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the cost was around $600
