get over it. every lefty worth their salt either learns to shoot right handed or bails and shoots a rifle at a pistol match.
Fact! Although my rebuttal is "Beat me"

That's why I only support companies that will offer lefty/ambi made stuff. Hence why I chose a MPX. Evil-Hand thumb rests was developed by my friend who isn't even a lefty . Carne Customs who built my Open 2011 lefty gun. I shoot a P320 CO gun because it's slide stop actually works for a lefty. But it is what it is. The way I see it is, this game and most things in life were made for right handed people. That being said, with the lefty disadvantage, I'll beat them at their own game.

I like AXG with Lok brass palm swell grips. I do not own one and have shot it a handful of times. I have a TXG grip and think it's good enough.

Take a look for this one on the Classifieds, Brand New Carne 9mm (just need to modify slightly to shoot right hand), even better if you are a lefty, but available now and no wait times. But be quick otherwise I may have to buy it .....
And at around 5k, a real bargain....
**NEW** Carne Custom 2011 Open Gun 9mm
I’d even be willing to sell it without a grip! Still has exactly ZERO rounds through it….

Absolutely right on the money except for the spelling of the word "skills"
I like my spelling better

I have owned a Freedom Ordinance, MPX, JP GMR13, GMR15, and a JP5. I have shot many others and there are many fine PCC's out there. BUT... The JP5 blows them all away. It is a game changer. It will be winning all of the PCC categories in SCSA and USPSA.
The top shooters will most likely always win with any PCC they use as skillz beats gear every time -

The Scheel Roller buffer allows for you to lighten up the bolt, thus with the lighter Scheel buffer creating a situation where less mass is reciprocating.
I’ve shot with Corey and shot his PCC and DaVinci PCC’s. My observations I think are helpful but also isn’t comparing apples to apples….
That being said, with my ammo (140pf 115s) any blowback PCC kicks a lot compared to my MPX. I’ve shot brekke custom guns too with tailored ammo for the guns. They felt really good! BUT, I’ve still yet to shoot a PCC that is as good as the MPX. My friend just got a JP5 and his when I asked his thoughts he said “it wasn’t a game changer” compared to his AR PCC…. More to come for sure…. Back to my original point, the MPX BCG is small/light. Less reciprocating mass means less violent recoil when tuned properly. That being said, for a few hundred bucks it’s easier to get a Scheel roller delay buffer system than a JP5 $3600 price tag. Maybe I’ll change my mind once it shoot a JP5?

Thanks,
I like watching you kicking ass even though you shoot from the wrong side.
If I could create a second USPSA account to shoot PCC righty, I’d do it. But I’ve heard that’s caused people to get ban..

Someday I'll edit my A8 video.

Are you going to post your video of the Area 7 match?
I look forward to them.
It's on my youtube.. but ill post here lol I need to put together my A8 loss

I've had this discussion with shooting friends. I personally do not check scores. I shoot my game and focus only on myself. I've been told by some very top shooters that eventually I may need to check scores to push the limits of my abilities to potentially win a match. Again, I just focus on myself. It seems to work for me.. It also prevents distractions of what I can't control... to each their own..

You could win Nats if you have good health and eye sight at your age. However, winning Nats or even an Area match means you will have to make shooting your singular passion and goal.
Go and listen to the top shooter's podcasts and I think you will find it's not so much about age but work. Dry fire every day, live fire 2 -3 days a week, Major matches, local matches, lots of ammo, reloading, spare gun and parts. To become a National ranked competitor is work and commitment.
Now to get to M or GM class, that's a bit different story. You can do this, just decide what your motivation and ability to participate are.
I think I talk about what it took to get there..
-
haha this almost seems like click bait with how "old" you are. 2 years ago I made GM in PCC at 35 years old, came 4th at PCC Nationals in 2021, made 100% PCC classification 2022. It wasn't an accident. It took LOTS of time and effort to get to that level.. Overall it just depends on how much effort you put into the game. If you think by doing nothing other than go to a weekly USPSA match, you may not make M.
One thing I will mention now that I've read this again, I've been shooting guns since I was 6. Started doing skeet competitions at 8. Registered skeet shooting/travelling to big matches from 15-19

I've never had that happen. Call Sig and have them mail you a new one.

Anything and everything. The more caustic the better.
I don’t use any special oils or solvents.
Breakfree CLP and Hoppes #9. Acetone to dry everything before oiling. My range bag has clenzoil that I use too. It smells nice.

Also would like to know your most dependable loads as well for running 100% and cleanest , thank you
4.5gr Sport Pistol under 115gr RMR FMJs @ 1.125” with Fiocchi SPP and nickel plated Speer Gold Dot once fired matching head stamp. This gets me around 140pf ~1200-1230fps
I’d say the primer/brass isn’t as relevant. I just use that brass for my major match ammo since I have a ton of it. I also use Everglades 115rn plated projos for club matches. I haven’t really found much of a bench rest accuracy difference between the 2. I also have a ton of RMR 115s and they’ve been extremely accurate out of my MPX’. I don’t get anymore carbon buildup on the factory comp if I use plated vs RMR fmj

I feel like I should do a big long write up on maintenance on the MPX… I’ve been asked enough at this point and I personally love the platform! After all, I got 4th at Nats in front of Draqusoull13 only because of the MPX
-
What are you using for ammo?

Or have 4 of them and cycle through them.
I’m down to 3 . At this point, 0 of them are getting used. So therefore they’ll always work since I keep them clean

I have 3 Identical MPX's. I switched to a backup once in my PCC career as I used my practice one at a match and was filthy... I also have all the spare parts of anything that could break. I've never had to do gun surgery at the range either

That's exactly what I did. Its a pretty slick setup. I just have to drop the Gray Guns trigger into it which I have not go to yet. The only think I do not like about the AXG Pro is the limited optic plates available for it.
Just put a DPP on it as it's the best optic available
-
If I were to get into a P320 platform, I'd go with the P320 AXG Pro and put the Lok brass palm swell grips on it. Do some kind of trigger work and guide rod with 1911 12# spring to make it more better and call it a CO blaster!
X5 is back

How is everyone so blind to see that SAO CO, Limited Optics as I’m calling it for now, is right around the corner. All these 2011 slide ride guns and now something like the 226 XFive. Yee talking about it on a recent podcast… it’s happening
