Welcome.

Where in FL?

[Guide Rod Length]

I just measured my Kimber factory full length guide rod for a 5 inch gun at 3.96".

A full length commander rod would be roughly 3/4" less than that. Perhaps your guide rod is custom? Its longer than a commander or officer rod and shorter than a 5" gun rod. I don't know if anyone sells a 3.5" or if you would need to buy a full length and cut it down. Shouldn't be a big deal, even with very basic tools. Hope you find a solution!

Thanks for the info.

I do have a gunsmith that has offered to cut the guide rod for me, but I was trying to see if there was something commercially available before I drive an hour to his shop.

[Pet fish]

What evidence?????

[Guide Rod Length]

I don't have either, but are you talking about full length or GI style rods for said guns?

I replaced the Recoil Master in my Brazos SX, but can't recall which guide rod was installed.

The current guide rod measures 3.5". I just want to buy a spare to keep in my range bag.

[New Year's in Chicago]

Correct. We'll be tourists.

[Guide Rod Length]

Anyone????

[New Year's in Chicago]

Thinking of spending New Year's with the family in Chicago.

Any recommendations on where to go and what to do?

[Guide Rod Length]

How long are the Commander and Officer length guide rods???

[Scores?]

Not exactly. The scores do not reflect that Svetlana was bumped fo open from production division. So Randi won the prod. title

Just curious, do we know why?

[PUERTO RICO IPSC NATIONALS 2012]

Here are the stages in google sketchup format.

Each bay is scaled to size so if there aren't any unforseen problems the stages will be set up exactly the same as in sketchup.

What's the total round count?

Are there any restrictions with bringing full-capacity magazines into the Island?

No. However, you will need a Temporary Permit for the gun(s). This permit will be applied for by the event coordinator.

[PUERTO RICO IPSC NATIONALS 2012]

They told me it will be a one day match starting around 8:00 am.

I'll be flying in on Saturday and returning on Monday.

[Lost 40 lbs!]

Thanks. :cheers:

[Lost 40 lbs!]

More than diet (although I still watch what I eat), I believe its more about going out and exercising.

Currently, Im going to the gym early in the morning and after work every day. It feels good to be able to run a couple of miles without having to stop to rest. Never thought I could have done it two months ago.

[Lost 40 lbs!]

Following a brief stay in the hospital and using my buddy Nemo as inspiration, I decided to get back on track.

Weighted myself yesterday and found that I had lost 40 pounds since Mid-August.

Don’t really want to set a goal, but will keep exercising and see improvements as they come.

[Hi from South Florida]

Glad you join the forum Ed.

See you Thursday,

Mario.

[Do open guns ever run.....]

...I am going to go longer and am switching to 3N38. Like I said, more than anything I was shocked at all of the issues that happened to the open shooters on my squad. 3 or 4 of them are going to nationals and they all had an issue or two...

Let me know if you are interested in getting rid of the N-105. I'll buy it from you.

Just in case, I'll be shooting Port Malabar this Saturday.

Mario.

Too many legs for me.

[VV 105, 121s, and Brazos SX]

As indicated, I currently use 4756, but haven't been happy with the tracking.

Some of the guys suggested either 3N38 or 105, so I'll give them a try and see which feel better.

[VV 105, 121s, and Brazos SX]

How long are you guys loading the 121s?

Have any of you tried 3N38 as a replacement for 105?

[VV 105, 121s, and Brazos SX]

I did talk to David this last weekend at the IPSC Nationals, but forgot to ask him what bullet weight he was using.

Thanks.

[VV 105, 121s, and Brazos SX]

I' m trying to confirm whether there will be an actual case capacity limitation issue before I order 8 lbs of 105.
