  1. what's your barre twist, barrel condition?
  2. My work-provided internet access has restricted access to myspace and youtube
  3. my MacBook Pro(intel duo) is running flip4mac videos for months without a glitch.
  4. I load at least a week before a big match after chronoing load. Usually have about 500 of ready ammo for locals. I have a 1050 setup so overnight loading shouldn't be a problem.
  5. I advise a smith that has experience with 9 open and is close to you. Otherwise, call Jojo Vidanes-the only smith/shooter who've won top 16 Open Nats in the past few years consistently using 9mm open. JVDynamics
  6. Results on Area 4 website: http://www.uspsa4.org/matches.htm no stage results though
  7. I finally found the part. It's an optional Limcat Open kickstand for fast table starts. As I recall, production has been discontinued
  8. Question: 1. Do you have to wear a STI shirt or can you still wear a custom-made shirt(i. e., Techwear) with STI logo? 2. If custom shirt allowed, anybody know where to find the specs? Thanks in advance!
  9. Sheldon's a great guy that has not yet moved to the next class. He's just showing us how to shoot his class properly. ;-} Congrats, Sheldon!
  10. Currently, i'm without a back-up gun and wish i had one. My primary broke at Open/Prod Nat's(slide[bIG]crack) so it had to go to the smith. It's still not back and I'm shooting A4 in a few days. A friend loaned me his back-up and so far it's working well for me. Lesson: Get a back-up if you shoot a lot, or get a friend who will lend you his back-up. 8-)
  11. I use Dawson's racker mounted on a dovetail cut on rear of the slide. Works well for me.
  12. I'm sorry to hear about your sister. I work at M.D. Anderson C.C. and I know for a fact that we treat a lot of intestinal types of cancer. Chemo, Surgery and Radiation therapies are not the only treatment Anderson offers. The more promising treatments that are being offered tend to be a combination of targeted therapy, Gene Tx, Chemo, Rad, Surg. Targeted & Gene therapy shows a lot of promise since it seeks and hits the malignancy more accurate than a regular chemotherapy. It will really depend on the patient's tumor score, general health, other illnesses, etc. Generally the lower the stage the better the prognosis and availability of treatment options. Sloan Kettering, Mayo are also top of the line centers. In fact you'll see our faculty mixed with docs coming from the said institutions. As for US News reports Best Cancer Hospital, we've shared with Kettering the top 2 places for atleast 5 yrs now. This year was 2nd place, but if my memory serves me right we had 3 1st places in those 5 yrs.
  13. Yes, I shot it(with my Nikon) uprange, broke 180 . The target was a stage sign/marker. It seemed an interesting angle to shoot without the RO catching me.
  14. Course Desc: Shoot Brown Target, mandatory reload, shoot 'browner' targets. Comstock Shot this picture in Impact Zone, Houston Area Club Match
  15. I just can't pass up this opportunity: Here's our boxer, Maxine
  16. I'm still waiting on the USPSA members website for the first day result. None so far...
  17. I believe mine is a S2 (long comp). Also, I know there were some modifications done on the ports by JV Dynamics - proximal hole was re-angled to 90º, and middle hole widdened(x in.). Dot movement on mine is manageable. This might vary from shooter to shooter depending on several factors: powder,bullet, gun design, grip, etc. (it's a whole topic of discussion). Overall, I'm very happy with it, i've compared mine to several of my friends shooting same caliber open gun that were non-trubor and they were way too violent for my taste (personal opinion). My next open gun in the future will still use Trubor.
  18. I shoot one too. No hybrid(blow) holes. Love shooting it.
  19. I'll go with 550 anytime. Also, see Brian's great explanation on comparison among different models. I recently switched to Super 1050 and kept my 550 for tweaking loads ,i.e., OAL, powder grain, crimp etc for chrono.
