Don't forget major scoring. Some of us just love to run around with our space lasers and blast everything at mach 2 while making a ton of noise. CO just doesn't scratch that same itch.

Hello, no.
Thanks, Me

Well dang. Good luck on your golfing journey.

Can the gun be switched over, back and forth, a lot? I would think, screws would think threads would start to strip?
So far, so good. I haven't had any issues with screws backing out besides the ones on the breech block. But those are cheap so I just replaced them. Also I don't use any Loc-tite, I just put witness marks on the screws and snug them down if they start to back out.

We are glad you like it! We use a premium coated glass that has superior optical and antireflective qualities. When people compare to some of the other dots on the market, it's easy to see that many brands chose to use much cheaper glass to save costs.
I asked this further upthread, but do you have any plans to make an optic with a wider window like the Romeo3XL? I would buy like five of those.

Six months of owning this thing and I really love it. It makes me practice way more than I did in previous years. Hell, I'm thinking about picking up a second one!
-
Still need to sight mine in, but man the glass is really nice. No issues putting it on my existing mount, either.

Is it that hard to do 9 major in a revolver? Honest question because I certainly haven't tried.
-
8 round major seems like the most logical choice and wouldn't break too many hearts. It would at least make those four-target arrays much less painful
-
I saw a post on another site about the viability of using Canik TP9SFX 18 rounders in the FS PDP because of magazine scarcity. Anyone tried this? How did you get it to work?

Don't make it too complicated. Extra steps always take extra time and will in turn lower your hit factor. Using a strategy of minimizing or eliminating extra steps is always a good plan regardless of the stage HF.
Fair point

I’m thinking about how to shoot this for Open and Lim major. Going from left to right, it seems like you can start stepping after the first target and get maybe 3 steps (6 or so feet depending on your height) before leaving the left-most partial. That means you would only have to cover like 10 feet to get to the next corner, but at the risk of slightly slower splits and maybe hitting the NS.
Anyone tried this method? Or would it be better just to lean out on the partial as @RH39 said?
-
How much are extra steps worth on low, medium, and high HF stages?
-
I recently sold my TRR8 because while revo can be fun, it’s also a big hassle.
I think it would be a lot more palatable if you could do 8-round major PF

Shot this one over the weekend and ended up having a major brain fart. Took 3 shots on the left steel, then took only one shot on the left target for some reason, two on middle and two on right, came back and made up the left paper, then hit the right steel. All alphas, which was great, but just really dumb shooting
Open major
5.27s
40 pts
7.59HF for 49.9%

my question is how are they able to get primers (even from overseas) when no one else can
and yes you are right they have been taking preorders for a long while now and im sure that they have to be close to out of stock even when the new stock comes in
They are apparently importing from Canada

Dang. Google tells me that N-Frame cylinders are a hair over 1.7", which is probably too large for the Rhino unless you just chopped off the top strap entirely and lengthened the cylinder arm. Oh well, that's too bad.

As far as I've been able to tell, they use the same cylinder blank for all calibers (including both diameter and length). I know the frame window is the same for sure.
Assessing the feasibility of making a new cylinder is far beyond my skills.
Could you measure the distance between the top and bottom strap? Thinking out loud again, I wonder if a circular cylinder would have enough room for additional holes

The only thing it would take would be a different cylinder and a modified hand. That is assuming the cylinder is a big enough diameter to begin with.
Is the .40 cylinder any bigger than the 9/38? I wonder if you could take a blank .40 cylinder and bore out more .355 holes in it to get 7 or more shots.
Edit: Or .375 or whatever the diameter of the brass is

I ordered during the second week of March and shipping/hazmat has not been collected yet

I would highly recommend getting a major 3 comp barrel with it too. The honcho is so fun it will make you want to shoot it in all the ways in all the sports.
This, so many times. Even though I use my 9 major barrel for 85% of the time, every one of the other barrels gets taken for a spin every so often. I’ve gotten pretty good at switching from open major to limited major during matches with morning and afternoon squads!

Ordered the 6 moa this morning. Can't wait!
By chance, are there any plans to make an optic with a wider window, similar to the Romeo3XL?

Most of the U.S. military is still using the Beretta M9. The Army is transitioning to the M17 (full size Sig 320 with external safety) while the Marine Corps is going to use the M18 (Sig 320 compact).
I believe that there are still a few Sig 228/229s out there in the Naval Special Warfare community, and as well CID type-units. Most of SOCOM is using the Glock 19 these days, although a few of the more-specialized units are using some exotic pistols like the Staccato P.
This is by no means an exhaustive list, just what I've gathered from discussions on this topic for the last year or two.
Dry fire with a timer?
