  1. Only one of the 3 mags gave me an issue. They all have the Arredondo extensions. 

    Did the case gauge and also checked oal after chambering. No change. Now that i have a suspect mag I will do the chamber test with that specific mag.

    Will try different powder. Don't think i have an unburned powder issue but it is filthy.

  2. OK here is what I figured out so far:

    I have 3 Glock mags I use 36round with the arredondo extensions. I shot the first 3 stages with my old ammo in all 3 mags. First 2 everything felt fine the 3rd stage and mag had a couple slow cycles during the stage. Switched to a 115 RN  load with the offending mag and had no issues. Other 2 mags no problems as well. Thinking it's the bullet and mag combo. 

    One thing i did find out is i like the 115 RN load. Will probably shoot up all the loaded 124TC that I have and not use the one mag until I switch to 115s. 

  3. GMR-13 complete from JP

    124 Berrys FP bullets

    5.1gr auto comp powder

     

    While shooting fast splits i notice the gun cycles noticeably slower occasionally. Like 3 or 4 times during a typical stage. I think it may be firing slightly out of battery which may be resulting in slightly less pressure thus the slow cycle.

     

    Anyone else experience this?

  4. Have a Bushnell 1-4 AR series scope. Would be the ultimate scope if the illuminated reticle was visible in daylight. It is first focal plane so at 1 power the reticle turns into a small dot. Awesome if you only shoot indoors. I tried doubling up on the battery which made it a little better. So I figured if 6 volts is better the maybe 9 will do it. OOPs think I fried the electronics.

    So I'm thinking of taking it apart to see if I can put stronger electronics in. Anyone taken one of these apart, know someone who will work on it or any schematics available? Or any other info and advice?

  5. I would like to thank Mark and all of the staff for match I am proud to have as the Area 2 Championship. Great stages, well run and a good time was had by all. Also thanks to all the Sponsors who supported the match. With all the craziness in the industry right now it is great to know they support our sport enough to dedicate product that they could easily made more money on selling. REMEMBER THE SPONSORS when you make buying decisions. Letters are great but buying their stuff really shows your appreciation. And a big thank you to all the shooters who came to shoot. There are a lot of matches bunched together right now and it is great so many came out and supported USPSA Multugun.

  6. USPSA needs trecognizeze that pistol only matches and 3 gun matches are two different animals... and should be treated as such.

    I agree -

    but I don't think that's being considered.

    I deleted my first post but this is pretty much why. USPSA seems INTENT to take over multigun by assimilation. USPSA rules for multigun just dont work. USPSA should just face it that most of us want IMG style rules and adopt them and make the IMG/3 gun nation partners instead of trying to figure out how to tweak the USPSA rules to take over. Its not going to work. And I think lots of shooters would have hard feeling toward USPSA for trying to be the 300 pound gorilla.

    Bingo...

    That's right first 3gun then THE WORLD! (evil manical laugh).

    Seriously, I know most all of the match directors of the non USPSA matches personally. I am pretty confident we aren't assimilating any of them any time soon. My only intent with these rules is to get USPSA in line with the rest of the 3 gun world and provide our clubs and members with a complete rule set for running 3 gun matches.

  7. I think it would be nice if it was rewritten. But:

    8.4.23 Unlike Poppers, metal plates are not subject to calibration or calibration challenges. If a scoring metal

    plate has been hit but fails to fall, self-indicate, or overturn as designed, the Range Officer shall declare

    range equipment failure and order the competitor to reshoot the course of fire, after the faulty plate has

    been rectified. The Range Officer shall be the final arbiter as to whether the plate is functioning as

    designed.

    A metal plate isn't designed to fall down with one... two... three... pellet hits.

    Do you have a suggested rewrite?
