Ain’t no need to be bringin people’s edgamaction into this now gonna get the post locked down lol

Well this got spicy quick and I didn’t know about it. So is HQ or AC doing something about the way these matches have been ran past 2 years?

Lol

Are you sure that slide will fit a gen 5 frame? Gen 5 frames are not compatible with gen 3-4 slides

That one isn’t stripped but that’s a good price on a gen 5 frame. Out of curiosity why do you need a gen 5 frame?

As DK said some on gunbroker I was looking for one not long ago only place I could find one decent price

So just order the .300 by whatever width I like and just adjust the rear? What’s yours measure to DK?

DK, this is what Dawson includes in his adjustable sight set for 17L/24 “Dawson Fiber Optic and Black Front Sight .300 Tall x .100 Wide”

I bought an adjustable rear off a guy on the forums

24.5? Or .245?

I’m currently in process of building a gen 3 22 for limited and I’m goin the sight block route. I’ve got a Dawson adjustable rear sight on the way but I’m curious what height front sight I need with it having sight block. This is what my logic is, a 22 is the same length of a 35 with a sight block, since I don’t have a 35 could I measure the height on my gen 5 34 and get it close and adjust the rear sight if needed?

That’s just muscle memory. What squad was you on?

Yeah but we all know when that buzzer goes off everything you told yourself is out the door lol

Not making this difficult, just proving a point that his made up rule was not needed. imagine if you was shooting against some really good people and that stupid rule costed you the match? not my situation but, I would be very heated over a BS call that costed me a division win.

Must be your home field. I only got called twice but it’s a BS call. definitely Won’t be back.

Did you shoot this match I’m talking about? In the rule book it says you can stand on a fault line as long your not touching anything on the non cover side. Its very out of the ordinary for this kind of stuff at a tier 2 sanctioned match.

I wouldn’t say I got “wound” up. It was more of the fact you could tell the MD was being a pain in the rear. I would’ve liked to see a total of how many PE was fault lines for that match though.

Mmm not technically. Top of a fault line is not the non cover side. This all reason why USPSA will continue to take off and IDPA just spins wheels, because way to many rules that you have to read way to far into to make sure your not breaking any rules.

EXACTLY. He made up his own rules which if I recall is not legal? correct?

.

He set a rule saying you wasn’t aloud to step on the fault lines when clearly you are fully aloud to step on fault lines per IDPA as long as you don’t touch anything on the other side of the fault line. It was a sanctioned match not a local. pulled this crap day of the match and it threw a lot of people off and made a lot of people furious with the match.

Exactly I’m use to rolling my foot kinda on them and pushing off them to my next position. I just think it’s crap to alter rules on day of match I only got called on it twice out of 11 stages. I think the MD just likes being arrogant I overheard a lady say last year he was laughing at people that struggled with angles and people that was sliding on the fault lines.

It was a huge tripping hazard especially when you had multiple fault lines on one stage. I was just waiting to see EMS roll up cause someone with leg issues didn’t pick his feet up enough to get over the fault line. I seen a couple guys about trip over it because who the hell is use to 2x4’s for a fault line, we also had an amputee shooter and I’m sure it made it somewhat difficult for him. Needless to say say I will not be back to that place for a sanctioned match again. One of them deals I would’ve not been mad one bit if I got DQ’d for something stupid.

So it is legal to make your own rules as a match director at a sanctioned match?
