If SAO CO gets approved I can also see a change to DA/SA guns. Back to 10rd mags, no base pads, and no slide cuts. Original factory setting and modifications.

2011! The ones I’ve seen that are affordable and ready and out of the box are BUL and Masterpiece Arms. Both come with 2 magazines.

DQ or Not? Pushing window open with gun.
Kwontanamo replied to bjcollado's topic in USPSA/IPSC Rules
It wasn’t an ND either so it shouldn’t have been an issue. I’ve run into people who think they know the rules and make things up all the time, falling steel for example. You reshoot it where it was shot, not anywhere in the shooting area. -
I can definitely agree with @Bwilmot, @Nathanb, and @Racinready300ex Nat's should be based on magazine size and division restriction. - Open & PCC - Limited & CO - Production, Single Stack, L10, Revolver As for stage design...well I just won't open that can of worms

I’m surprised what this table shows. I used to shoot 3N37 for 38SC because 3N38 was so hard to find and everyone who shot 3N38 had more consistency with velocity. Very interesting. also used to shoot #7 as well. It’s a very dense powder so 8.8 will look like nothing in the brass.

I'd like to see 170mm and/or 29rd limit per mag for PCC

Can someone help me with the finer points of brass cleaning?
Kwontanamo replied to Obvious's topic in General Reloading
When I shot open with 38SC I would do this as well. However, there was a problem that I started to notice and I'm not sure if tis entirely because of the wet tumble. I would load my ammo as usual and I would get some rounds where the back of the case, near the case head, would blow out. It wouldn't blow my magazine our or shoot out of the ejection port. It was weird none the less and out of the 2-3K worth of 38SC, it was impossible to tell which were faulty. I ended up turning it all into a scrap yard for money and bought new brass from Starline just to be safe. -
This isn't the first time I've herd of Zelle being used in a fraud. I saw one article where they impersonated the exact same types of emails Zelle would send. It looked normal on the phone but when they opened it up on a computer the fonts, links, and buttons were all off and not working. They did the same with contacting Zelle and their bank but it was too late as the transaction was already made at their approval. I personally got rid of paypal and venmo after reading this. Sorry this had to happen to you.

Best bullet weight for coated 9mm competition
Kwontanamo replied to Haalck's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
I plan to do this as well. Except the load data I have is for 135 (CO) and 115 (PCC). do you mind sharing your load date for 124 and 147? -
not a fan of shooting coated bullets through the PCC & MP5?

BUL SAS II UR factory loaded ammo chrono results
Kwontanamo replied to Murzikrv's topic in Open Pistols
This is very helpful. I live near defender munitions and hopefully they’ll start making major loads again. I’m also surprised by Everglades results as well. -
She's not wrong. I'd be interested to see if the Sig P365 ends up being the most popular in a few years.

oh man i am with you. I have a young family myself with the oldest at the wonderful age of 3 (little terrorist). I used to shoot alot in NC before I came down to SC and there was always a large amount of father/son, father/daughter shooting couples at the range and I hope to do that with my kids. my wife has also seen the good, bad, and ugly when it comes to B/S/T on guns and reloading. I dialed down from shooting open with 38SC after my son was born. I'm shooting mainly CO and buying ammo in bulk right now. Don't even get to go to weekend matches lately and I'm relegated to a local flat range w/ benches. making do with what i've got.

IPSC Handgun Training - Technique Mode - 06092022
Kwontanamo replied to StefVanHauwe's topic in Stage Comments or Questions
That 3rd sting of fire didn’t look fun lol. Good use of space for the indoor match. -
a long time ago I tried to turn a glock into an open gun and even tried to get 1.150 OAL 9 major loads running through the gun. (inspired by KC Eusebio when he went to glock). I should have just gone to a 2011 platform for open. It was bigger headache for me than I anticipated. if you still want to keep the P230, recommend getting it set up for CO/poor man's open.
