I got lucky and mine was in stock and got it in a couple days. They should realize the flaw and rectify it with subsequent orders...just so glad i don't have to worry if the gun is gonna come out correctly now.

Well just went through a full dry-fire session and i can happily report that i did not have any sticking issues now that the DAA thigh pad was installed...simple snap-on part and the situation is fixed...what a load off my mind now...thanks for all the input from everyone. If you have an Alpha-X holster and are experiencing the gun sticking when you draw order this now and it will solve the issue, especially if you have a steel gripped gun. They should include this with the holster.

You got a good deal on it then. Correct tinkering is a given.

Thanks. Will check it out.

RHT has quality customer service...it is basically a one-man show and he does a darn good job fixing any problems.

I am always pretty hard on myself no matter what...but when that wears off, i videotape all my stages so i will go back over it and look at the things i did wrong and try to learn and correct them. We are all weekend warriors and this isn't our job...we just need to strive for perfection.

Thats why I shoot Limited. That looks exhausting!

What gun are you rocking...nice shooting! what holster do you use?

great post!

I can't use the blacked out front sight...just doesn't work for me. I started with red FO but tried the green and i like the green so much more...i can pick it up much quicker than red (unless in really low light).

Congrats on it...but that got to my initial point that you spend $1200-1300 on a competition gun then have to re-spring, etc. It should come with the Competition hammer....dont get me wrong i love CZ's.

Really good stuff...very helpful.

I bought an Atlas Nemesis and I know Atlas puts them in all their guns....i have had no issues.

Red Stitch is the way to go.

As for distractions when i step up to the line, i go over my stage plan in my head....I use the molded ear plugs and in taking a class i had an instructor ask me to try double plugging, so on top of the molded plugs i put on earmuffs too....it basically cut out a lot of background noise, but could still hear commands and beep....but it did eliminate some distractions of people talking....it helped me concentrate more and now double plug every stage.

Can you provide what these eye exercises are? I'd be interested to try them.

I started shooting USPSA in production and got to learn the sport....I switched to Limited simply because it was more fun to me...i don't really care about competitiveness of the divisions...no matter what i shoot if I am not first i have work to do....and i have plenty of work because i haven't won anything!

I have an Atlas Nemesis right now....after this season I may switch to Open and will get a Nemesis...the waiting is the hardest part.

Thats not bad. I had an SP-01 that i had Cajunized. Out of the box it was awful..the DA was crazy heavy. It is sweet now.

What gun will you be rocking in Open?

Thats what i tried to do as well...speed will definitely come...dry firing consistently will help immensely, mixed with live-fire.

I have the smaller one...it is very good and highly recommend it. For matches that have a lot of walking between stages, i have a golf push cart that i put the bag on.

Why don't you start closer to the targets, like 5 yards, and start increasing the speed, then gradually work your way back to 10-12 yards. Keep dry firing like crazy...practice will payoff for sure.

I don't disagree with that at all...the gun is awesome out of the box, but just not sure anybody would want a 10-12 DA pull on a competition gun out of the box.

Happens to me all the time, so i agree...get the first stage out of the way and then at the end for the rest of the match.
