I know this thread say's USPSA/IDPA, but does anyone know anything about this APSL? A local club is holding a match under this banner and I have never heard anything about it? Internet is pretty thin on it as well.
Thoughts/info

Thanks for the info, I think I'll try them.

Does anyone have any info on the MPA 2011 grips? I have only been able to find one reference on the forum and that stated they were too smooth and lacked grip. The price is much is better than Cheeley or PT. I currently use the Cheeley standard texture on my other gun. Any info appreciated.

finished my EPC build.
really fun PCC to shoot.
What barrel is that?

Awesome thread with lots of information. I'm still confused about a couple of things. I want to build an open gun from my 9mm TS. Why can't I just buy a longer barrel from CZC, thread it and and add a comp? It seems from the thread that the Comp will need clearance to fit inside the dust cover but I can do that myself. The primary role of this gun will be 3-gun open division. The option of using SP-01 slide and stock TS barrel makes sense but I haven't seen a bunch of these for sale. Which comp and where to get it?
Thx

I have a Safariland 014 Open holster for a CZ TS that I am using. The holster works well and holds the gun. The problem is the safety catch. it has become very hard to move between positions. I have disassembled and inspected it several times and can find nothing that should be causing the problem. Any ideas?

Thanks, much appreciated.

At the risk of getting yelled at for not checking the threads, I am going to ask if anyone could give me a starting recoil spring weight for a 1911 in 40 S&W. This is a new build (1st in this caliber).
P.S I did do a search and came up empty
Thanks

Has anyone loaded the Hornady 75 grain HPBT at a 2.240 COL? I am looking to load it with 23 gr's of TAC. 2.240 is the max length I need to get it feed reliably from my PMAGS. Lyman manual say's 2.260 COL. I'm not looking for extreme accuracy, I am looking for a load to put the hurt on a MGM spinner target at 100 yds. Will the decreased COL make this round unsafe. Thanks

That all makes sense, thanks for the education.

Ok, I have a probably stupid question but i'll ask anyway. I have never shot open but have been considering it. Currently shoot Limited with a .40 and 3-gun with a 9mm. Reload both. It is easier to make PF with heavier bullets and my guns are more controllable with heavier bullets (147 gr 9mm and 180 gr .40). why doesn't this seem to apply to 9mm major? Why run 115 or 124 9mm?
-
That's kind of what I thought. Want to buy an AR-10 and would like to use it for both heavy metal and long range local competitions. Probably should just go with .308

Can a 6.5 Creedmore be used in heavy metal?
-
I haven't used their brass but I like their bullets
-
Great info, thanks

Looking for a good rifle to give long range shooting a try. Found a good sale on the Savage 10 Ashbury in 6.5 Creedmore. Is this a good entry level gun? Other option is to rebarrel one of my AR's to .224 Valkyrie. Thoughts?

Just saw on Facebook that Xtreme Bullets has filed chapter 11. Post says they are still in operation and selling product. I use a lot of their bullets. Hope they stick around

I have one for sale...
CZ or STI?

Thanks for the comments. Apparently can't really go wrong with either one.

So, I considering making the jump into open for both 3-gun and USPSA and I am considering the STI DVC open. As I am not sure what to ask for I would prefer a gun ready to run and not have to have something built custom. Two questions; is this a good gun for the price, and second, what has to be done to have the gun work right for 3-gun shooting minor power factor. I currently shoot CZ's, would a Czechmate be a better option?

Thought I would post an update on this issue. Took the upper off of the gun and looked at the trigger assembly with magnification. What I found was that the dis-connector and the hammer were touching when you let off the trigger. This would not allow the hammer to go back into position for the next shot. Fix was simple, I took a fine file and cleaned up the contact point and all is well.

I got a new MPX carbine for PCC. As is usual the trigger sucked for competition. Replaced with Hiperfire 24C as this was recommended by several other shooters. Kept the stock safety. Installed and ran about 50 rounds with no issues. Shot first match today, ran great the first stage then had an issue during the second. The safety would not disengage. Move to fire and trigger would not move, cycle safety and fired one round, had to cycle safety again. Did this off and on for next two stages then ran great for final stage. Stayed after and ran 100 rounds with no problem. Another shooter with an MPX said his did this and he just replaced the the safety with a Noveske unit. I'm not opposed to changing the safety but would like to understand whats causing the problem. Any insight would be great.
Thanks

Thanks for the info, I was leaning toward the Sig. Have several of their pistols and always work without fail

I know there are a lot of people bitching about USPSA but I don't really follow the politics. I shoot whatever and wherever I can. Just a pain to follow all the different rules, division etc. The more shooting the better.
