    Bumping the mag limit to, say 15, or just instituting a mag length limit for Production would essentially create a “no optic/optic” division with Production and CO. Two minor-only divisions. Limited and Open would basically be the same thing for major scoring. That “makes sense” to me, but opinions will vary. 

    As long a Production has the approved gun list among other rules, that’s going to distinguish it from Limited. It would however basically negate the reason for people competing in Limited minor. With the last set of rule changes, we’re already close.

    A what is generally considered  "highly competitive" gun with mods cost less than the same in any other division.   The CZs that everyone loves for production start at 1400 and go up, the Sig legion that people like in CO is about 1000, before the optic and trigger job, Springfield ROs are about 900 plus 100 for a magwell and trigger job.  So about as cost effective as it gets.  

     

    And if you talk about just buy a glock, everyone still gets a trigger job for 160+, new sights for whatever Dawson's cost, etc, etc.  And then they are going to trade it in to buy the sig or CZ LOL

    I’ve always thought the RO recommendation for SS was along the same lines as the Glock recommendation for Prod. After swapping out the guts of an RO, the next step IMO for SS would be hopping into a Dan Wesson.

    “Makes sense” is purely your opinion. 
     

    As with what “makes sense” to everyone else.

     

    People need to realize that they keep using that term incorrectly. 
     

     

    Looking at the guns available/on the market that are commonly used and popular in production, it does make sense. There isn’t much of a reason for a 10 round cap anymore when many are capable of 17 from the factory. Just a thought but with the rules as they stand now, bumping the allowable rounds in the mag to 15 in production would keep an entry level division where unless they have a magwell/optic or comp, they would not have to compete in a division with likely a minor power factor gun where they’re at a severe disadvantage.

     

    As long as Revo and SS are divisions, I can’t see “no more than 8 scoring hits from any single location or view” changing though.

    I would rather go the other way: on the  list, fits in the box, makes weight,  no comps, no dots, done.  Fill the mags up too is fine with me.  

     

    Since single stack really does fill the niche of low cap, cost effective,  level playing field,  stockish guns. Let the guys looking for "purity" shoot there. Everyone else could mod their stuff and shoot.

     

    Or we could not stress over any of it and work on our skillz.....

    I don’t know if I would necessarily call SS a cost effective division...

    See look a proposed stock division and people are already wanting to allow modifications.  I wonder why production is where it is now....

    I think the proposed stock division you’re looking for is IDPA’s SSP. Want to run with your mags full? USPSA already has a division for that with limited minor. The big issue I see from your opening post is your proposed division is being very exclusionary which, in theory, would further divide production making participation even lower. Personally, I don’t see anyone shooting production going over to go shoot what you’re proposing nor do I see people going out entering to buy a specific gun to compete in this theoretical division.

     

    I understand that that USPSA is uniquely different from IPSC now, but there are a couple of areas that would make sense to align with IPSC. Allowing bull barrels in Single Stack and Production upping capacity to 15 rounds makes sense.

    In other news, IDPA has not changed their weight limits or rules for awhile. . . . I was just trying to condense and summarize what I learned after reading all 8 pages of this thread. I think that weight gain is normal as we grow older.

    So is being set in your ways and not adjusting to changing times. 😉

    I will be picking up my New plastic fantastic,full sized,striker fired CZ in a couple of days and would like to hear what those who already have them think!🤙


    I shot mine in carry optics for around 6 months and enjoyed shooting it.

    If I'm understanding right, I did find your other tests on the trigger pull with the stock 45 connect and the modified 39 deg connect. So you essentially traded more travel for less force needed to set off the trigger? So the wall might have moved back a tiny amount but the break is much farther back? This of course does not change anything with reset, just lengthening the pull from wall to break. I might pick up another disconnect and ply with this idea.

     

    Since there is so much overtravel would you suppose if I translate the same 45 further back a couple thou then the wall would move back as well as the break? Maintaining the same trigger break weight.  Then I could adjust cgw pre travel to just outside the reset.

     

    This stuff is fun. I like to tinker and am machinist by day.

    I’m not sure why you quoted my post... I have an HBI trigger kit in my Carry Optics gun and am back to running the stock followers in my mags since I couldn’t get the grams followers to work in my gun with CZ Custom base pads. I did modify the stock follower in the way that’s shown on Henning’s website.

     

    I personally haven’t modified any of the internal parts of the gun other then replacing the parts that some with the HBI kit.

    I wasn't sure that the glock spring could fit on their guide rod. Thanks.

     

    Ya i used the reduced striker spring. I am assuming the cajun reduced striker spring is similar to the HBI?

    So otherwise, I could just switch out the striker?

    I’m pretty certain that the recoil spring is a standard ISMI spring like you would find in a gen 3 Glock, just insert your desired poundage.

    CHA-LEE is getting 24 reloadable with a grams spring and the TTI ultra-thin follower. ;) 

     

     

    If you read the followup posts, that same TTI SV follower is getting me an easily reloadable 23 in a Walther mag. (When I combine it with a Grams spring for the P320 and a TTI +5 extension.)

    I’ve read his post and saw the pictures. I had already bought the grams kit awhile back, but I may give that a try at some point.

    This is concerning.  I’ll be getting my p10f tomorrow and I mainly load 147 flat nose.

    ill have to see how long or short I need to load them.  Really don’t want to mess with my dies and load different loads of 9mm every time.

    Played with this a bit last night some more and the issue for me seems to happen when there are over 20 rounds in the mag. I’m using CZC base pads and grams kit for P series mags, so 23 rounds in the mag is possible, with a CGW steel guide rod and 15# recoil spring. I shot some factory 147 FN American Eagle through it, some 124 blazer, and then some of my friend’s reloads that are round nose 147 but the OAL is a tad shorter. The shorter OAL seemed to help vs the factory.

     

    I was planning on shooting this at a local match this weekend with the gun, so I’ll see how it does after Sunday. Also planning to shoot it the rest of the year.

    Thanks for the tip. Cajun Gun Works has their P-10 F rods in stock now so I have installed one of the., But, I will remember for future reference.

    I ordered one of these at the end of last week. I’m looking forward to trying it out.

    Let me try out the new, correct followers I’m getting this week then I’ll find some 147 FN’s and try it out. I’ll report back on what happens.

    I had a problem with 150 Syntech and OEM mags with CZ Custom 140mm extensions. 22 rounds of 115 ball worked fine, but not the Syntech. I assume the volume and profile of the 150 bullet, compared to the 115 ball is the problem. 

    So, I had a pretty significant issue with some 147 American Eagle fmj stuff which is a flat nose round like the  syntech round is. When I ordered my original base pads and followers, i believe I got sent the 75 mag follower kit and not the p series mag kit. I swapped back to the stock guts in the interim and haven’t had an issue, but I should have the correct kit sometime next week.

     

    I settled on the gun just not liking the flat nose rounds, and I’ve burned off all that I had left fortunately though somewhat frustrating at the time. So now I’m shooting 124 blazer through it at the moment. No issues so far.

    So again, less about their decision process and more about yours. What would you do as a registered shooter?

    I’d go back if it’s driving distance. If I had to fly, then it would depend because of the cost to me. If money and time off from work weren’t factors, that would be a definite yes.

    I don't think the water is the reason they canceled the match. 

    They worked really hard whole day yesterday to clean out the water/mud, but I believe it was later in the day a small tornado that stopped by the range blowing away equipments and carports, etc. that was the last straw.   

    The most severe weather happened late in the day Thursday after everything had been put together for today, Friday, so people could shoot. Most people had already left by the time that the weather hit the range, but yes there were definitely carports from multiple bays gone and they tumbled, several feet in the air, across the range.

  17. I just put together a P-10F OR to dabble in the CO arena after the area match next month assuming I get to go. I’ve put through maybe a few hundred rounds and the slide lock is actually improved for me. Though I find that if I slap the mag in hard enough, the slide flies forward most of the time.

     

    Seeing as how I just got this together this last week, I haven’t tried much yet.
