Here is a list of USPSA clubs within 2.5 hours of Baltimore
https://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=191107
Not on that list are Quantico and NRA range matches

I think he manually pushed it in too far, while trying to install it. Not a cycle issue, if I read OP correctly.
Odd, the factory fp spring shouldn't have any issue.All stock springs except for a Wolff 13# hammer spring
Yeah that's what happened

Been there, done that.
The pin went past the firing pin block (FPB) and ROTATED, now the block is keeping it forward.
Remove the back plate.
Slightly depress the FPB, and rotate the pin until it will come out.
It's fiddly, but it will come.
Thank you johnbu! That took care of it

I just finished installing the Henning Gen 4 firing pin in my Stock II but it appears I messed up along the way.
The tip of the firing pin is stuck about an 1/8" through the breach face. I can push the pin further forward through the breach
face but can't push it rearward at all. Has anyone else dealt with this problem? Any advice on fixing the issue?
I tried searching but couldn't find anything.

About 24" outside Baltimore and still coming down

Welcome from a fellow Marylander!

Why should USPSA do that? New shooters will not be competitive in general no matter what the rules are (unless they are some sort of phenom but then shooting more alphas will not be a problem for that person) . Minor already has the advantage of a few more rounds and less recoil.
-
It didn't work well for me. Was getting 5-6 light strikes a match.
-
I pick out any steel or aluminum cases then tumble all the brass cases together
After I tumble I sort out any pieces with crimped primer pockets, stepped brass (Ammoland, IMT, FM), Tula, and Aguila and separate them whatever is left I load
-
Sure do. I shot probably 4 or 5 matches while it was snowing or with snow on the ground this winter. Lots of sub-freezing matches, quite a few rainy matches as well. Boy this was a fun winter in MD.
-
I tried using Blue Dot for 9 minor and it was a disaster. Didn't reliably work the slide until like 150pf and was dirty as hell.
Power Pistol was flashy and snappy but atleast ran the gun reliably at minor pf. I'm sticking to the faster powders.

You could check out Ontelaunee not sure if that is close enough though. http://ontelaunee.org/uspsa/

124 gr Xtreme RN
4.0 gr Tite Group
Win. SP
1.135"
I getting 133 PF out of a Gen 4 Glock 34
-
I'm driving about 550 miles round trip tomorrow for a match. I guess I'll see how it goes.
-
^^ It doesn't work like that. "9.5.1 A shooter's highest and lowest Classification in a semi-auto division can only differ by one Classification level."
So if you are a MA in SSP you start at EX in ESP.
-
I'm using 4.0gr of Tite Group under an Xtreme 124gr RN at 1.135" in a Glock 34.

Hello from another Marylander. Do you shoot IDPA at AAFG?
-
Just got to try out my BOSS holster in a match this weekend and I've got to say it rocked. Super rigid and secure. Much better than the Comptac International I used previously.
-
I've used them a few times. Never a problem and quick shipping.
-
I used it for a bit last year for 9mm minor. Very flashy and a bit dirty but it was better than nothing at the time. It started to improve when I tried some hotter loads.
-
I'm signed up for Saturday PM. Looking forward to it!
Will be my first level II so I'm excited
-
I believe all the USPSA clubs in MD are shut down for winter. There is an IDPA and multigun match in PA and a steel match in NJ.
