When a 3x3 box is designated for a classifier, is it measured from the inside or outside? I don’t see it specified in any classifier stage briefings. Using a box made with 2x4s makes for a big difference Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This happened to me just yesterday in Steve Anderson’s class. We were doing a shot calling/transition drill on steel. Goal was to keep shooting left popper right popper back and forth until you missed. I reloaded after 20 hits and as soon as I thought “damn! I’m still going strong” I missed. 24 total hits. Nearly everyone in the class had a similar experience. One they started thinking about the shooting instead of just staying in the moment, they missed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have 2 and they feed/function fine. I bought over p mags for the 1 extra round. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think you nailed it here (and I also love a tasty empanada) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think the biggest group to benefit are those that don’t get to live fire often. I use dry fire to work on manipulation and index but if I dry fire too much without frequent live fire, recoil control and accuracy seems to suffer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been entering this state of being in the moment with a clear mind more and more and every time it happens i perform my best. Focusing intently on one thing at “stand by” seems to help (sometimes just a spot on the ground or edge of a target)

Seems like a cool dry fire tool but I’d imagine you are constantly refilling with CO2 anyone that dry fires daily use one of these? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As others have said. Lighter bullet and lighter spring. I shoot a 200gr bullet with a 14lb spring. Adding a shok buff might help too. The slightly shorter slide travel makes it feel a little faster for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah! I’ve heard that he’s not an advocate. But I also recall one of his video reviews on pstg where he mentioned in feedback back that “you have that super efficient scoop draw”. We draw to get the gun out of the holster so we can get to the shooting. For me, the scoop is the most efficient way to do that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haha! Well now I know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Google has failed me. Who the heck is PSAD? All I can find is Pennsylvania society for advancement of the deaf. I think a scoop would work well for them too in USPSA. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Only if you shoot idpa or 3-gun. For uspsa, the scoop is where it’s at! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got to play with one of these on Saturday. Shot great but I just can’t get over the tiny grip. I have medium hands and my strong hand over hangs a bit. First time I pinched my hand inserting a mag in a looooong time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just saw that on their website yesterday. Tempting but not at $700! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That was my reaction and I think the best option. A few extra steps need to happen between squib and rod going down barrel. You’d have to be a d-bag RO to count attempting to remove the slide as attempting to clear a squib. Even though it technically is since it’s step 1 in the process Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gotta love the simplest solutions! That makes it easy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah! So if I did not stop him because I didn’t pick up on it and he starts to pull his slide off during the COF then the rule would apply? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A couple of weeks ago I had 2 shooters with squib/suspected squib. Shooter 1, I did not stop. Was watching the gun and did not see/hear anything different. He stopped himself. Turned out he had one stuck....Shooter 2, I stopped. Seemed pretty clear as the slide barely moved and pop was a puff. With both shooters, after verifying they were clear per normal ulsc procedure I sent them to the safe table. #1 did have one in the barrel but surprisingly (to us both) #2 did not. After looking at 5.7.7 I’m wondering if I should have field stripped both firearms to confirm or not? I’ve been an RO for a couple of years but this is my first time running into squib issues (2 in one squad!) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just realized there’s a new rule on this too! I stopped a shooter a couple of weeks ago for a squib. Right after I stopped him he unloaded and showed a clear chamber but then was going to field strip his gun. I stopped him before he could and told him to head to the safe table after hammer down/holster. But...this made me think...at what point does the new rule apply? When you remove the slide or actually pull the squib rod out of your back pocket? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last year, Area 8 match sponsors (PHLster, Race Street Range, and Techline Technoligies) coordinated a 4-hour bleed control class for Area 8 staff. We had about 20 attendees who received training and were given a tourniquet and blow out kit. We now take the equipment and knowledge to every match we shoot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was lukewarm on the regular 320 but recently shot a friend’s x5 and was really impressed with the balance and low recoil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I switched in the fall of last year (from production to Limited) and our season is just getting underway now. Not planning a stage around reloads allows me to focus more on the shooting and movement which leads to an overall better experience and performance (for me). In production, I sometimes shot a stage in what felt like an illogical manner because it made sense to do so because of where I wanted to reload. In Limited, I shoot a stage in what feels like the most efficient way and just work in one reload at some point when I'll be moving.
