As an owner of an older 3-Gun model, I agree with@TonytheTiger. Buy one from TTI or RCI or other reputable gunsmith. About the same cost but much better result. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I have two Sig 1911 Max’s. One in 45 the other in 40. Both are great guns for the money, run great. The only issues I’ve ever had where user induced or ammo related. However, if I was to buy another I would look at Dan Wesson’s and some of the new Springfield’s. Sig comes with a 6lb trigger pull and a series 80 never really gives you a great trigger. I would by a series 70 next time just to get a better trigger pull. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I’ve shot a lot of it without any issues. Mostly 40 S&W. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I had the same problem with my .40, replaced springs and followers with Grams. Problem solved. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

3-500 depending on how much time I have. I usually only work on it for 1-1.5 hours including loading primer tubes, loading and chamber checking? I use the Shockbottle 100 round case gauges. So all rounds are checked. Adds about 10 minutes. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I run a Sig Max in 40 and it runs like a champ! With a little trigger work, it is hard to beat for $1,300. Tim Herron ran one in 45 for years and recently started shooting a Atlas Gunworks in 45. I'm sure it is great but 3 or 4 times more expensive. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I have 2, 40 & 45. Great guns for the money. I've done a little trigger work by polishing and bending the leaf spring to reduce the pull to about 3lbs. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have enjoyed mine! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Excellent advice! However, if your insurance agent doesn't understand the risk and how the policy will respond, you need a new agent. As an agent I will only confirm, we are agents of the company and do not control their checkbook! Many insurance companies will try to avoid paying claims if they see a way out and the potential claim is large. That is when we let the the attorneys and the courts figure it out. I've seen companies try to deny claims they should pay and pay claims they should have denied. Make sure you have a good agent and they put you with a good company! And have a good attorney on speed dial! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think that will carry weight in court however the insurance policy will look at payment to see if was a business endeavor and therefore excluded from coverage under the homeowner policy and hence excluded from the excess policy (umbrella). The certification may hurt the argument for the RO. Certified and compensated may be two strikes! How hard the insurance company will fight is usually influenced by the size of the lawsuit. No easy answers I'm afraid. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Peter the fish is correct, your homeowner policy will respond first and then a "umbrella" policy. Most people call it an umbrella but is really an excess liability policy that follows the coverage on the underlying policy (i.e.; homeowner policy) Not many companies sell true umbrella policies anymore. As long as you did nothing intentional to cause bodily injury to someone, your policies should respond. The only thing that I see could cause an issue is if you are paid vs. a volunteer. Then the lawyers will decide how the policy responds. Is free match entry payment? What about a major match where the host club pays your hotel bill...etc. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I have a Sig Max in.45 and love it. The trigger needs a little work as it comes out of the box around 6lbs or so. I use it for IDPA CDP. No malfunctions from the gun in a year of shooting it in practice and matches. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Match was great fun. Thanks Jake and all the staff. Continues to be one of the best run matches I attend.

I agree with what TimH says. I have one in 45 I shoot in IDPA CDP. I've not had any issues. Runs like a dream. I use a Blade-Tech 1911 holster that is added some rubber washers to open it up to fit the Sig slide. I think you can also use the BT 2011 holster but I've personally never tried one. Mine has a trigger job to get the pull down to about 3.5lbs and I installed a short trigger bc I have small hands.

On plated bullets, check your crimp. If you crimp them too much your accuracy will suffer. I shoot X-treme out off a CZ Shadow, CZ Tac Sport and 1911's in 9mm & .40 S&W with excellent accuracy.

A lot of guys in my area in KY aren't going because the new venue is too far.

Congratulations! That is one hell of an accomplishment. I know a lot of hard work went it to making it happen. Now on to Carry Optics!

I have been using Rand CLP on all my firearms for about a year or more. Nothing I've tried works any better. Clean, not greasy and make cleaning much easier. There are other similar products like Slip2000. I used to use Frog Lube but had too many issues with getting gummy when cold. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I use a lot of TG. 3.8gr with 124 X-Treme HP out of a CZ SP-01 Shadow. Very accurate but you have to watch your crimp. If you over crimp the accuracy will be way off and possibly get some tumbling. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There are a lot of things to consider when it comes to competitive shooting and your choice of guns. USPSA, I would go with the CZ SP-01 Shadow as it is the most completion ready out of the box. You can either buy a stock one or get one already tricked up from Cajun Gun Works, CZ Custom or Automatic Accuracy. It all depends on you budget. IDPA you have to make sure the CZ is legal for the division you want to shoot. 3-Gun you sometimes have to ground your pistol unloaded or on safe. That is harder to do with a CZ than a Glock or even a 1911 style pistol. Other considerations are the differences in double action/single action triggers vs. striker fired and your experience with both. Make sure you get the chance to shoot all the guns you are considering. You need to know which one is best for you. Got to your local match and see what people are using and ask questions why, how they made their choice, pros and cons...etc. I personally shoot a CZ and it is much better for USPSA Production than a Glock or any other striker fired gun I have tried. It is legal for IDPA SSP or ESP. I use it some in 3-Gun but it is really heavy and not always great when you are running around with it holstered. I've considered going to a CZ P09 for 3-Gun as it is lighter but hate to spend the money. I love my CZ's! I have an SP-01 and a Tactical Sport. But you need to try before you buy so you make the best choice for you. Good luck!

Their prices are outrageous! Powder is starting to flow again. Don't support price gouging!
