It is starting to sound just like the evolution roll out.

That looks great! But that is not very comforting.That looks great. But that is not very comforting.

I am sure it just needs tinkering. The one in Gavin's video is going extremely fast with the handle and keeping up just fine. The one fear I have is the learning curve and finding all the bugs and fixing them.

I agree. I actually did very well on that stage. Great memories were made at that match.

Yep. Stage 12. Crazy for sure

Ok, you twisted my arm. The facility and layout were incredible. We shot all 12 stages in one day and the amount of walking wasn't bad at all compared to some ranges and major matches. The stages were not overly complex or too hard (except for stage 12) but they gave you many options for a stage plan but also options to lose time and get mikes. The flow of the day was very good on Friday without any long waits at any stage. Staff was very friendly and made it fun. Food truck was great. Prizes seem aplenty and I actually won some decent stuff. If I could shoot it all again tomorrow I would. It was nice not to have to paste or reset as well. All in all it was an A+ experience for me and those on my squad. With nearly 400 shooters it was the largest match I have attended to date. And there was no shortage of talent! Being new to Carry Optics I wanted to be conservative with my shooting without shooting any misses, etc. Ended up 47 of 101 carry optics, solid mid A class with 228 A, 43C, and one lousy D. Oh and one NS. Now to actually get classified!

This was such a good match!!!!!!!!! Hopefully it will be held at Rowan again next year as it is 45 min from me.

I’ll try and post a picture of my SP01 with one mounted. found one

Correct. It’s been about three years or so. I guess time flies.Correct. It’s been about three years or so. I guess time flies.

FYI, you can order 9mm IMM SV guns now and have been able to for a long time.

Yes. If slide is cut for RTS2 and there is not room in front then the FTP Alpha3 will not fit. It’s slightly longer in front. You will need to modify the slide or shave off some of the optic.

Yes. I did this to a couple of my legions. It works fine.Yes. I did this to a couple of my legions. It works fine.

I worked on my back up A01-LD over the weekend in preparation for Area 6 and am kinda proud of myself. These guns seemed more complicated to me than a 2011 but after breaking them down it isn't too bad. Some mistakes along the way gave me the opportunity to even do more work. lol My only grumble is that large hands and very small parts is not easy. Fitted an extended left side safety which really makes the gun feel more like a 2011 and gives a great ledge for your strongside thumb if you are right handed. Accidentally bent the sear spring and had to pull the sear cage and replace the spring. Installed the extended paddle mag catch/release. Also removed the rear iron sight RDS plate and installed the SRO plate and got the optic mounted and screws shortened and fitted. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Here is the link. It’s awesome! https://rangepanda.com/products/mr-bullet-feeder-pipe-mount

I’m going to mount my Mr Bullet Feeder with the Range Panda mount and have it hang from the ceiling so it won’t even contact the case feeder. This set up is ideal to reduce shaking and vibration. Super cheap upgrade as well. I think I have $40 in it including the pipe from Lowe’s. It works with 650, 1050, and anything that uses a DAA bullet feeder.

No. You need to be on the USA web page. They have two pages kind of like DAA.

Haha. Good excuse! Time to get the Mark7 auto drive with all of the sensors

This is awesome! Looks great. Let us know how the first 1,000 rounds go.

Correction, I meant to say Matt Hopkins with CZ not Matt Hemple.

Agreed 100%. In my mind they are a great value and I own 4 on all types of guns. The DPP doesn't hold a candle to this optic for competition use. If it was merely for EDC or combat use I would go with the DPP for much smaller glass, longer battery life, and possible better overall durability. For competition the FTP optic is simply amazing. Glass clarity, optic crispness and true dot shape, size of viewing window, ease of usage, etc. I think there may be a couple codes for $10 off but haven't looked in a while.

This is with a P10F based on what Matt told me.

Matt Hemple with CZ said it works reliably. From what I understand no mods to mag body are needed. You must use 9mm Grams guts. We will see.

I learned this weekend you can use a 15 round .40 P09 mag body with Grams spring and follower and Henning basepad for 24+1. I ordered 5 mags for this.

Thanks

Interesting. Thanks
