  1. I built mine using the Brazo fitted slide/frame. Really nice work they do. Paid 675.00 that was on sale. Other parts were EGW, Cheely Grip, Binary Comp, etc... Cost was around $2400. Brazo Fitted Slide/Frame 675.00 Nov 2020 Had the KKM barrel fit. Gunkote all parts. Machined the slide. Made an extended mag release and trigger.
  2. One day I'll need to check out YRPA (4 hr drive). Heard good things over there from the guys on the wetside . I wonder if it's due to supplies being hard to get, prices of said ammo and fuel? Around this area, we are seeing full Matches in 6 Clubs often, people got the $$$$ to burn? When we see new people, it's usually friends/family members/co-workers. I hope you all find some newbies and really see your Clubs grow, it's a great Sport.
  3. I've been using PDV2 124gr for about 1k rounds in my Open gun and all work great. Best way to find out is buy 100 and test. I've had 6 different Open guns and used, Montana Gold, RMR, Precision Delta, Xtreme, Black Bullets, Blue Bullets, Everglades and more. Currently running PD and Everglades 124gr. in my new gun. Find what works for you best.
  4. Brownells SPM CCI limit 2k @ $82.99 a thou https://www.brownells.com/reloading/primers/pistol-primers/pistol-primers-prod79081.aspx
  5. Natchez CCI 550 Mag. 5,000 limit, but at $84.99 a thou... CCI 550
  6. I agree with you on this Lighj. Fun to squad with your buddies, but I get too complacent about my part in shooting a good Match. All the small talk goofing around, then I'm on deck and needing to switch modes. I know there are Shooters that do well no matter the squad of buddies. I found I do better with a random Squad and less buddies. I find my focus.
  7. Brownells Fed LPP https://www.brownells.com/reloading/primers/pistol-primers/pistol-primers-prod35322.aspx
  8. I wouldn't . But, desperate times....etc. There are 2 forums I frequent in the Reloading Section Ore/Wa and primers are at 90-120 a thousand. Haven't took a bite yet. Case of Fed 100 (5k primers) going for $600 . Hoping to see Midway, PV, Brownells, etc... sell for less than $75 a thou (might be a while).

  10. Hmm...lotta $$$, short stroked? The old fad was stroked? Guess he is making 15 and no pre-order. When they come out, they sell to first buyers. I'll pass. But there will be some buyers for sure. If ya have FB, vid is here: https://www.facebook.com/atlasgunworks/videos/408556810960156/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3-DYuqoSQo
  11. Finally got things sorted out. Had the barrel fitted and coated. I milled the slide cuts on my Mathews PM25 Mill, fitted all parts, made the Trigger and Gun Kote in Satin Black and Chrome Black (grip). Had a chance to shoot it today, about 400 rounds. Working good, a few bugs to work out, but looking good. Got all my fingers and no blood. That first shot on a new Gun, argh. Hold ya breathe go for it. Now for some trigger time and practice. Brazo XWF Fitted Frame/Slide KKM 5.4" Bull Barrel Cheely E2 Grip and Magwell Sig Romeo 3XL Tevo Mount Zig Racker Nitro Fin EGW Ign Kit Bin. Eng. Comp Anyways, here's the obligatory pics. Peace.
  12. It is what it is. I drive 2 1/2 hrs sometimes, average about 1 1/2 hrs to each Range. 3 in Ore and 5 in Wa.
  13. If you do get involved, there are many Ranges in your Area that hold USPSA Matches. Get the USPSA Rules book too and learn about how not to get DQ'ed. Was at Paul Bunyan, new young shooter, first stage and first Match ever. Broke the 180 while reloading, argh! Felt bad for the guy, but encouraged him to come back and stay with it. He did return. Even when I started with a group of guys, I barely knew any rules at all, except the 180, finger in the trigger while moving loading/unloading, etc. But not really enough. It's great to see new people join the Matches, I wish there was a written test to help them before their first Match and to keep them/others safe. Go for it, it really is lots of fun. Some good people up in your area too.
  14. Brownells CCI 450 (limit @ 2,000) $89.99 1k Rifle Primers
  15. I hear ya, the cost at this time . At least I'm stocked for now and good for USPSA all of 2022. Hope it gets better.
  16. Brownells CCI Small Rifle and Small Pistol Primers CCI 400 CCI 500
  17. CCI Benchrest SP at Midway...but...$124 a thousand and only 1k can be purchased . Midway
  18. Argh! I guess I missed what forum this was, my bad. But, does apply in USPSA, for what it's worth .
  19. In this case you state it was, "no where close to the first plate". Was he aiming at the plate in your opinion? Possible inline from his shot hitting the ground to the plate? If not and in your observation if he was not aiming at a target, at the time of said discharge, then DQ: 10.4.6 A shot which occurs during movement, except while actually shooting at targets.
  20. Oh ya? Actually sent it off to JPL in Redmond, Wa to fit the barrel and cut a dovetail for the Zig Racker. He's busy with other work to be finished and will take a while before I see the gun again, I'm patient. As for the slide not going back, I just took a little off the Main Spring Housing and it fit, all good. I'll post a pic once it's finished, prolly in Jan or Feb.
