Looks for Target

Looks for Target (4/11)

  1. I would prefer it to be more physical. I'm 55, but work my butt off to stay fit and see USPSA as a "sport". When I get too old I'll bail and start shooting sporting clays or trap. This will be my 8th year in the sport. Believe I'm at about 180 matches on practiscore including multiple nationals, state, and area matches. I can count the number of low ports that required kneeling on one hand. I have never had to go prone. It seems it should happen at least on occasion.
  2. My thoughts confirmed. Thanks DeepFried...
  3. Is anyone using the Apex kit? (Trigger, bar, and connector)
  4. Ordered my Long's Huron on Jan 29th. Got notification it shipped yesterday. Right at four weeks is a pretty good turnaround.
  5. 124/5 because I like simple math...
  6. I have several. Will not buy another Red Hill. I appreciate their support of matches, but the fit and durability are not good. Fit is sloppy and my first one cracked within a year of purchase. They gave me a discount on a replacement and they are fairly quick about shipping as positives. Also have a GX Vice which is good. Fit is average but with the lever lock it is not an issue. Very tough holster. Problem is the website says 16 weeks lead time and I have heard rumor it can be longer than that. I just ordered a Long's Shadow Huron for a 1911. I have one for Tanfo. The fit is excellent and lead time is not bad. As for specific guns. Call whoever you plan to order from and go over it specifically. They likely have seen it before and can guide you...
  7. Have been checking Practiscore occasionally looking for the Classic to open. Is it going to happen?
  8. Does it matter who we vote in if they can just be removed??
  9. In sweaty, hot, and humid Louisiana my Hard Chrome guns look perfect. (when I actually clean them) The oldest is from 2019. I wipe them off after shooting, but they aren't babied at all.
  10. I have been shooting Tanfo's for several years so this is not a new issue. I moved through the normal Blue then Red Loctite and quickly realized that they did not work. I went to Green Loctite bearing surface adhesive in my Production guns which worked well. (I line the channel and coat the sight with it. Blue on the set screw.) I'm now shooting .40 in Limited and even the Green does not seem to be holding. My next thoughts were either JB Weld or Roksett? Do any of you guys have suggestions?
  11. Before I started reloading I bought lots of 9mm from Freedom Munitions. They use stepped cases. I started saving brass well before I began reloading and never had an issue with those cases through numerous reloading cycles. (I shoot on my property so I save all non-match brass) This was all with puny 130 PF loads though. I understand the 9mm major guys staying away from them.
  12. I bought a .40 slide to put on one of my Stock II's to start shooting limited with. I have three S2's and a Limited gun. The .40 slide has been on multiple guns without issue.
  13. I got a MBX that came with a used .40 cal gun. It's my drop mag for dry fire as that's all it seems to be useful for...
  14. Agreed with last. 2.5 years with G34. Now close to 3 with Stock II's. I can jump back and forth within a few draws. Not to 100% with either certainly, but I would not take long in regard to the grip. Now the trigger.......
