    Stop caring about the outcome.

    This has helped me a lot. Last 3 Gun major I went to I set 5 or so obtainable, yet challenging, goals. I hit all of them except the "placement" one. It caused me to be down on my performance, and not appreciate the goals that I did hit. I started going to matches with process oriented goals. Not only am I performing better, I noticed I don't let the mistakes get in my head using this method.

    SV will make you a blank hybrid rib barrel but they don't stock them. They say allow 6 weeks,

    but I got mine in 5 weeks.

    The rib goes almost to the locking lug.  Not sure if that's a 4 port.

     SV's all seem to be clark/para ramped, and I need a wilson/nowlin

    While certainly not optimal, my guess is that it wouldn't affect the performance.  In all of the hybrid builds I have (I have 3 and will get one more shortly), the barrel rib doesn't touch the slide at all throughout the cycle.  They're very close but there is no contact.  So, all the fitting is between the slide and barrel, minus the ~1/2" on top where the rib is.  

     Cool, because I cant find a 4 port (drilled or undrilled) hybrid nowlin barrel anywhere...

  4. I searched, but didn't seem to find an answer. I'm going to be having a 9mm barrel fit to my 38 super open gun. Currently, it has a Hybrid barrel and the slide is cut for it. Would I have any issues having a non-hybrid barrel fit to my slide? Any potential problems with barrel lock-up?

    I've had a Venom 3MOA on a frame mounted Open gun for ~5K rounds so far.  I always shoot Major PF loads, even though the majority of the time I'm using it in 3-gun.  After many bumps and dumps in a dump bucket, it hasn't had any zero drift, or any problem.  I'm very happy with it.  I may look at a 6MOA to use on my pistol and move the 3MOA to an offset sight on my rifle, though.

    What mount are you using?

    As much as I want to justify getting a "super" aftermarket trigger, I can't find fault with the one that came in the gun from JP.  I followed their procedure to lightly smooth the tool marks on the engagement surfaces and the trigger is hard to beat.  It has about a 2 lb break and as close to no pre-travel, or over-travel, as you can get.  On paper it is as good as anything else that you can buy, and it works 100%.

    Yeah, if you have a JP, there is absolutely no need to upgrade it. JP is currently my favorite trigger, and I've tried a bunch. 

  7. I just installed the Timney Calvin Elite in my PSA. Really nice trigger! Light pull, minimal movement. I only got about 200 rounds on it so far, but zero issues. If it starts giving me fits, I'll swap it with the JP thats in my 3Gun rifle.

    2nd or 3rd on Safariland 014. Cant knowck the thing out of the holster locked or unlocked and if you forget to unlock it you may give yourself a hernia

    Safariland 014 here as well. Last weekend, I was trying to knock my gun out while standing on the hotel bed the night before the match, and it wouldn't budge. I reached down to unlock it when I put it away, and realized I was jumping and beating on the magwell with the lock off. I ran around for 3 days without issue. 

    With that said, I was still nervous that it was going to come out, and cause me a DQ at my first Major...

  9. Has anyone experienced major bullet setback when using a splice on a glock 17 and 31rd mag? The gun was running fine with each of the mags before coupling, but out of the first 48 round mag, I had 3 hangups (they chambered slowly, but they chambered) and upon ejecting the unfired rounds, the bullets were set back around halfway into the case.

    Hmmmm, my guess is that he did not have it locked. With the CR Speed, it is a pain to lock/unlock during a stage run, sometimes this is incorrectly done or not at all. Bottom line is that the CR Speed is not a good holster for 3 Gun due to its locking system.

    Yeah, the RO asked if he wanted to lock the holster on the previous stage, and the shooter said he doesn't need to lock it. One stage later, he's complaining about being DQ'd.
