How about since they allow magwells in LO, we make it a 10rd. limit, and make them reload like a production shooter, then roll it into CO. No need for a separate division.
-
For that matter, why couldn’t he run it DA hammer down in LO if he wanted?

This the 17rd. Mecgar tube with Taylor Freelance extension. The extension is retained with a screw that needed to be trimmed down a couple threads or it touches the inside of the magwell, or you can relieve the inside of the mag well.

I think a lot of people have opinions that do not want to voice them, in fear of retribution. When my AD and the Pres. comes up for election, I'll have one question. "Did you support the nationals being held in Colorado?" That will determine my vote. The Org. needs to start displaying some ethics and Give a F!@k.

The Taylor Freelance mag extensions work with the Boss Components mag well

Better question is what did he do to piss off the board.

Sure they have lots of powder. That’s because it’s priced way too high.
$45-$50 a pound. Pass.

Have you tried the Surefire plugs with the baffle that you can open and close? I'll try to find a link, but Google the Surefire ear plugs, I'm sure it'll come up. I noticed the same thing with my Sordin's, they are a little loud in an indoor range compared to my old Pro Ears. The foamies are really the easiest solution, you just have to get used to it.

How are Prodigy fire control parts different from regular 1911/2011 parts?

Are there any magwells that will work without modification to the grip panels' length? One that looks like it might is the Springer Precision magwell.
Springer is the only one I am aware of. They show 2 versions, one IDPA, the other open/limited USPSA style. If you have grips you really like, it may be the best option. No one has said what extended basepads are compatible with it though.

I have 6 Grams kits, and 6 TF Signature base pads. Using Mecgar 17rd. tubes, I get 23 in every one, and every one feeds 100%. No need to do anything else. Like in open mags, you can chase 30 or 31 in a big stick, or get to 29 easily and it works every time. Pay your money, take your chances.

I stand corrected. That will be a busy little reticle.

I think that’s only for the upcoming 507Comp
No, that’s standard on the 507c.

Palmetto has an exclusive Holosun, the 407A. The body and lens is the same as the 407/507C, except it doesn't have the solar panels on top. The dot is a 3moa in red. It sells out quickly, but when they have them they are $179. I put one on a co-worker's gun, and compared it to my 407C-GR. Dot is bright enough for a sunny day on a CO gun. I'd get this if I needed a cheap "good enough" dot.

I had an early Legion. I used minor PF reloads, around 130PF. I had a case blow out the extractor and a face full of powder. I found the case and the extractor because it was an indoor range. Case was all mangled up, the extractor appeared unharmed. I put it all back together and shot it the next week, and it ran fine for several years. This is before there was any talk of out of battery rounds being fired. I don't remember if it was before or after I had the loaded chamber barrel replaced by SIG.

Shooter's World Major Pistol, if it can be found. AA7 if not. HS6 is an old standby. Autocomp is a little fast, but lots of people use and love it. I have 3 8# bottles I will be getting into once my SWMP is gone.

I learned as a rookie cop in 1992, pull your shirt tail through your underwear if you want to look neat/tucked in all day. Been doing it that way for 31 years if I wear a tucked shirt.....even shooting shirts. The one issue is boxers won't work well and the underwear needs to be tight.
Same here! Wore my t shirt tucked in my drawers for 31 years! The vest tails and uniform shirt were tucked as normal. Might need an “administrative re-tuck” half way through a shift, but no biggie.
Tried the garters and rubber waist band, never worked well.

No idea if they are legit or not, but the prices are ridiculous. $179 for the ambi safety is nuts. I got one from Eric Graffuel in France in a week for $85 after exchange rate.
-
I emailed him and he said he is working on it. Same for Taylor Freelance. May shoot it without a magwell for a while, cocked and locked.

Plus 0.
Thanks for adding, but most of us are looking for +4/5 mag extensions to shoot Limited Optics. So we need mag well/mag extension combos that are compatible with each other. I'm really liking the look of the Boss Components grip/mag well combo, but there is no feedback I can find on what +4/5 extension works with it. The BC extension is not high enough capacity.
-
CZ parts in the US are spotty. Look at European sources. I got an order from Eric Grauffel Shop in a week. I checked his site, and it's out of stock there.
-
Is the mag brake flat? Maybe take it out and see if you have a high spot there where it's rubbing on the mag tube. Sand it down, smooth it out. Or replace it.

Or I've seen the RM ask the RO "how'd you score it?" before he's rendered his decision. I always think he doesn't want to piss off his staff and then no one will work it in the future if he doesn't back his RO's call.
5 minutes ago, abbafandr said:I'll always use overlays on close call. Another thing, as an RO, you can't get upset it when a shooter calls for an overlay. IMHO, they paid the match fee and deserve a fair, accurate call. I've had calls overridden by the RM at big matches; so what. I'm trying score and keep the match moving as quickly as possible, mistakes can happen.
A beef I have is with a RO who starts trying to tell the RM what he scored and why. NO! Let the RM score it, that's what you are supposed to do, not sell him on your call.

If I still had my Limited major guns sitting around, I'd for sure dot them and shoot LO. 20rd. of 40 minor or 23 or 9 minor, you're still going to need a reload on a field course one way or another. Get them out and enjoy them! But I doubt they ever go major/minor scoring. Just no market for 40 major guns anymore, in bulk.
