Any idea what model? I just looked on their website and couldn’t find one that looked like that.

Definitely not a cmore. The lense is square. I’d be interesting in knowing too.

Need magazine pad extension for stock Glock 34 10rd magazine
tyman1876 replied to wanttolearn's topic in Glock
I think Taran sells some too -
I’m at 7.7gr of Hs6 under a 124gr bullet with a 172pf. No compression at 1.165oal

STI DVC Open gun ejection advice needed 9mm Major
tyman1876 replied to rr4406pak's topic in Open Pistols
I did the same thing. Didn’t fire a shot with the slideride on it. As soon as I got the gun on went a DPP and I never had ejection issues. -
I use TTI as well

Well they have it in a thread 15rd configuration and nonthreaded 10 rd. It’s a big deal for states like Cali and NY. Really the only reasonably non expensive way to get a PCC here Is to build one with a locked mag but that makes it so you can’t shoot competition with it. Between that, me being a big 10/22 fan and the fact that Ruger customer service has always been top notch to me I’m definitely in for on. Also there is preorders out there now for like $515 so I’d say that’s reasonable.

I agree about the world record. I’m within a few tenths of a second of the (recorded) world record on 4 different stages and would love to get the chance to set one but I literally have to travel to the other side of the country to even get a shot. Why cant the stipulations just be a Tier 3 Match instead of it being in one location once a year?

I have a permanent hump on my middle finger from glock knuckle. I remember it bothering me at first but now I don’t even notice it.
-
Interesting. I knew temp could effect my numbers but not by that much. 7.5gr felt better with my 10lb stock spring but my PF was around 167 average which I was worried about being to low. I’ll drop the charge a bit, keep the 8lb spring for now and try to find somewhere warm to shoot with attention paid to my grip. I think that’s a good course of action.

Drills to break in and smoothly transition from Glock to 2011
tyman1876 replied to thouston406's topic in Training Techniques
Copy that. Thank you -
Thank you! This is exactly the response I was hoping for. Could you elaborate a little more on the gas coming out of the front of the comp? I understand the principle and how it is suppose to work but what does that say about my particular load and setup? As far as my grip, I agree. See the comment just above this one. And I know you can’t see it but I do have a go gun thumb rest on. I was not a fan of the oem ledge that came with the pistol.
-
I was wondering if this question would come up. When I watched the video I thought the same thing and questioned if my grip was what it should be. I will say, it was -5 out when I took the video (you can see how red my hands are) so that may have played a part but regardless of the temp I agree with you. There’s improvement that could be made simply from this alone.
-
Thank you. I have one in the mail as we speak. I’ll try another video once it shows up.
-
Is there a minimum weight spring that I shouldn’t go under? Or will I know if I begin to have problems picking up rounds from the magazine?
-
This may be a flop, or maybe it’ll be a good learning experience but either way I figured it’d be fun to try. I’m new to open. New in the since that I had never even shot a platform like this until I got my DVC maybe 3 months ago. Since then, I dove in head first and am trying to educate myself as much as possible about my gun, it’s performance and reloading 9 major (or in general) as much as I could. With all that in mind I’m in the experiment phase now. I’ve learned a ton on here but thought it would be helpful to get a little input on my personal performance. Feel free to ask any questions about what I’ve tried but for now I’ll simply leave info on my gun/load and this video. Gun: STI DVC Open 9mm 8lb Wolff variable spring All other internals are stock Load: CCI Small Pistol Primers 7.7gr Hs6 124gr Everglades FMJ 1.165 COAL 173 average PF

Drills to break in and smoothly transition from Glock to 2011
tyman1876 replied to thouston406's topic in Training Techniques
Do you mean if you cycle a round in, reholster, top off mag, then unholster to reload mag the safety must be on before you holster the gun? I think I read that correct... -
I'll buy every piece of brass I shoot before I'm the guy on his hands and knees picking up brass while someone is trying to do a walk through. All my matches are lost brass. I'd much prefer to help paste, plan the stage, talk to people, etc. than grab brass all day. One of the reasons I shoot 9 major.

speed holser for glocks with frame weight-thumb rest ?
tyman1876 replied to sigsauerfan's topic in Glock
I use a redhill holster for my G34 with SJC frame weight. The thumb rest might be tricky in something like that though. May be worth looking into. -
It would be attached between the rear of the slide and ejection port, it would just hang over. Are you sure that is what would make it illegal?
-
I have an RMR on my carry gun but for competition window size dominates, for me at least. The RMR's are rugged as hell but it's a tiny screen..

DPP 2.5 for me

Where to buy bulk ammo in minnesota?
tyman1876 replied to mobrien's topic in Miscellaneous BEginners
I'll probly get crap due to it being reman ammo buy I buy all my minor 9mm from Octanemunnitions. I went through about 7000 rounds last summer with no problems. $140/1000 rounds is hard to beat. -
I shoot 7.7gr Hs6 under a 124gr Everglades bullet with about a 170 PF out of a DVC Open. Used the crono a few days ago to get those numbers and it was about 30-32 degrees out, for what it's worth.

The problem isn't FPS though, it's pressure.
