[How many rounds are y’all getting in CO mags]

23+1 with Henning Group 140mm baseplates and spring kit cut to 10coils. Plenty of top bullet movement to not be too difficult to seat. It takes a decent insertion but you don’t have to fight it.

[Arm/Elbow Straightness]

I’ve been playing around with hand position, grip pressure and elbow angle/lock.

 

ive seen a lot of people suggest a straight locked elbow is preferred but it feels very unnatural and then my arms feel very unbalanced in terms of force applied to the firearm and dry fire transitions feel strange.

 

my upper arms and elbows are essentially parallel with the ground, so my elbows are up and strong giving good clamping pressure through my chest. But when I really force the elbow lock, my arms end up being slightly different lengths due to my support hand being everso slightly further forward than my strong hand.

 

i do think it allows me to really rotate and lock out my support hand wrist better though.

 

id like to hear thoughts from others who have consciously tried and decided on a specific arm angle.

NWfront,

Can you publish the code here?

I used “SUM10” a while ago and it worked. Give it a whirl.

[Shadow 2 Grips]

I’ve been super happy with the Henning full checker grips. Have them on both my Shadow2s. Yes they’re spendy but the texture is just perfect and the grip profile fits my medium sized hands SO well.

Good day all,

just joined as I have heard lots of good things about the forum.

 

ive shot USPSA matches pretty casually for the past couple years but have always wanted to take it more seriously. I’ve always been a competitive person and this seemed like an excellent discipline to get into.

 

my wife recently had our first child and she works saturdays so it’s been nearly impossible to get out and shoot but her schedule is changing soon so HOPEFULLY I’ll be able to peel out a weekend a month to compete.

 

ive been drawn to pistols with mounted optics since I starred shooting. I’ve had at least one model milled for an optic for each “flavor of the month” platform that I’ve been through and this CZ Shadow 2 is no different.

 

i hope to learn and contribute!

 

thanks!
