  1. I picked up a 1911 in .40 off the classifieds here with enough mags, so I just had to add a holster and convert my racemasters to single stack. I was watching some videos on youtube and single stack looked like a lot of fun. I'm hoping to use this till I can eventually purchase and wait for a SVI dream.

  2. Sorry if this is the wrong section...

     

    I'm a new shooter and just signed up for my first local match. The match starts at 5:30pm and has 4 stages, 4 squads, 10 spots in each. What I'm wondering is what is the correct procedure/etiquette for being unable to show up?

     

    I get off work at 4pm, but there's always a chance I get forced for overtime. It's a small local match, but I'm still taking up a spot if I'm unable to make it. Is it better to just withdraw and attend when I have a full day off? I won't know if I can't make it till I get to work that day. Should I try and make contact if I can't attend? I don't want my first exposure to frustrate whoever is running it.

  3. I believe Josh Froelich uses the titanium compensator on his JP. Less weight on the front of the gun is always nice. I haven't heard anything bad about the stainless comp though. However, I do believe that JP is coming out with a new PCC focused comp in 2020. It has 2 ports on top compared to the current style. Short stroke is definitely the way to go, though I'm not too versed with different loads and weights.

     

    Extended mag release and short right side safety are great choices. Also new for 2020, their standard trigger will be able to accept their modular trigger shoes. I'm not sure if it's up in the rifle builder yet though.

  4. I used to love snapping together Gundam/zoids as a kid. I bought a HG kit not long ago and had a lot of fun with it. Certainly a lot cleaner than my work as 10 year-old. I currently have a backlog of about 8 model kits... But don't backlogs define people in to plastic models?

    I'm shocked that they didn't please all 34,500 members. 😉

     

    To recap the equipment-related changes:

    1. Not a single gun that was legal last week is now illegal (and don't discount how important this is, as it can't be said for all past changes...anyone remember the trigger weight debacle?)
    2. Not a single gun that was competitive last week is no longer competitive.
    3. The changes make enforcement of the equipment rules for match staff a bit easier.
    4. The changes make compliance with the rules for shooters a bit easier.

    I think they did a pretty good job.

    Well stated. Count me as a pleased member.
