I'm a firm believer in back up guns! Obviously everything depends on how serious you are in competition and which budgets you can alIocate. I have 3 open race guns: my primary match gun (which I only use for matches), my primary training gun (which is also my back up match gun) and my back up training gun (that I always bring to training). Over the past years I had to swtch multiple times during trainings and matches (in fact even last night - RD failed on me ), which guaranteed I could finish trainings and matches.

For a while I upgraded to Radian Raptor charging handle. Was very pleased with it. A year ago I switched to an add-on/plug&play side charger from Devil Dog Concepts. Never changed again.

Thanks, appreciated!

Hi, my gunsmith contacted Bul Armory, who stated that the link could be welded back on and the original steel grip reinstalled. My gunsmith outsourced the welding to a professional laser welder, after which the gun was reassembled. This helped for a couple of months, but several months and rounds later the same link broke again ... My gunsmith recontacted Bul Armory again, who advised him to reweld the link and to stop using the steel grip and instead switch to the Bul Armory polymer grip and their newest Tungsten magwell (all under warranty). I just got the gun back with the polymer grip and am waiting for the Tungsten magwell. After I testfired the gun, I'll make an updated review.

Shooting on the move is very situational on the stage design and the competitor's level. Sometimes it's not advantageous to shoot on the move and beter to shoot in/static or out of position. I think first and foremost it's important to understand and being able to efficiently/consistently execute the technique for shooting on the move (with/without pause) down range, up range, left and right on attack targets at close distance (depending on division: somewhere between 8 and max. 15 meters). Then you can either increase the distances and/or add control targets (NS/hard cover) and test what is doable for your level. Mind you that in competition the distances to shoot on the move usually decreases from training. Conclusion: test it in practice conditions to get a reference and built confidence! Blending targets and/or positions is part of your stage strategy and, as stated by someone else earlier, the hit factor.

I noticed that several 2023 Bul Armory models, ex: Bullesteros, are shipped with polymer grips i.s.o. steel grips. Anyone know why?

Limit-Z 124 gr FMJ RN bullets Armscor 9x19 mm brass case 7,1 gr VV 3N37 powder CCI n°500 SPP OL: 29,36 mm W: 9,57 mm PF = ~168

Yep, I've been using VV 3N37 in all reloaded ammo since I've started shooting OD in 9 mm major in 2018. Very good powder for major.

Without thanks, enjoy!

You're welcome, glad you like them!

Thanks, if you're aware and take some easy precautions lead contamination can be minimized.

Kudos to the HumbleMarksman for making it!
