Assuming both have the same size grip, is there advantage to a full size pistol (5" M&P, P320f, G34) vs the shorter barrel version? The optic would seem to negate the sight radius advantage. Is there anything else that would sway you either way?

Ahhh, ok. Thanks!

I know the picture isn't great, but can someone ID this?

Agreed, I said it wouldn't make a noticeable difference in a match. The question was if there's a difference in accuracy. Shooting groups, there's a measurable difference between my guns. Although, I'd be really interested in shooting an Accu S2.

I'll take a look at those, thanks Although, I must be doing something wrong. I'm using two slave pins, and didn't have an issue with the other pieces. Just can't seem to get the decocker spring to slide into place. It should be under tension, so that you have to push it down into the slot?

I've spent almost an hour trying to get the decocker return spring in place. Is there some trick to this? I have the slave pin from CGW, but I can't seem to get it to drop into place. And I think I'm putting it together correctly, but I can't seem to find a really good photo or video of it actually going into place. It seems as though it won't drop in because it's under tension.

I was just curious

Are you shooting this over your Shadow?

They didn't do any other milling than just for the optic?

I like my SP01, but I'm tempted to try an S2 for CO Just wondering what the more reasonable ($) options might be

Just in the next issue of FS, or are they online before that?

I don't suppose S&W has any public plans to sell an optics ready 2.0?

If you're still having an issue with POI and POA being off, you have to fix that. You can't shoot a match like that. And if you're having malfunctions, take care of that as well. You need to have confidence in your gear. And I don't mean for this to sound like a dumb question, but do you know how to shoot a Texas star? That is, in what order to shoot the plates?

I shot my first USPSA match this year, so take this with a grain of salt. But after my first match, I had similar questions. My times were very slow, but I was very accurate. I wondered if I needed to make an effort to speed up or go faster. I'm still trying to get my head around some things, but I conceptualize it in this way; During a match, I don't think about speed (slowing down, speeding up, go fast on one stage, slow down and get my hits on another) My only thought is to shoot to an acceptable sight picture. That is, when the dot rises, I feel like I had an A or a close C. The movement, I leave to my subconscious. In practice, though...I'm always trying to find a way to get faster. Draw faster, get in and out of positions faster, transition faster, faster, sooner, quicker everything. Ultimately, I'd like to have two modes (I don't want to use the word speed) of running a stage. When I'm LITERALLY shooting, pulling the trigger, I want to shoot to an acceptable sight picture. Everything else, I want to do as quickly as I possibly can. When my dot lifts after the last shot on an array, I want to IMMEDIATELY hit the nitrous button. Not consciously/trying, but subconsciously because that's how I've been practicing. Hopefully that makes some sense and isn't bad advice.

With primer tubes full, and everything dialed in, I can easily load 200 rounds in 23-25 minutes on my 550C. And 300 or so is about as many as I'll load in one sitting. More than that, and either my mind starts to wander or a joint somewhere is hurting. If I could load 400-600 rounds in the same time, I'd seriously consider a 650 with bullet and case feeders. I'd love to try an automated 1050, but I just don't shoot enough to justify the cost.
