Need help picking out a 1911 in 45acp for single stack USPSA.
Mikemiller69gs replied to Canman's topic in 1911-style Pistols
I’ve had a Pointman 9 for about a year and I love it. I’ve used it a few times at IDPA matches and it performs -
I have them on my SP01 and a 1911 45ACP that I use for IDPA. I really love them and I'm ordering a set for my Dan Wesson PM9

This is my first foray into reloading and i'm learning as I go, so be gentle. I'm reloading 9mm with 147 gr bullets and using Winchester Autocomp. It calls for a charge between 3.6 and 4.0. I've made 50 so far one at a time and weighed 25 of them and they were all at 3.9 but two (3.8 and 4.0). I'm using the smallest distribution disk (.30) but I would have liked to have been at the lower end of the range. Am I at any risk at 3.9 and how do I reduce the charge if i'm using the smallest disk/hole. Thanks for any help you can give. Mike

Light primer strikes in CZ Shadow 2 with 11.5 hammer spring
Mikemiller69gs replied to matto6's topic in CZ
I don't reload so I don't keep up on which primers are softer/harder etc. Out of the same WWB box the ammo ran flawless in my Walther, Kimber and My buddies Sig X Five. I just thought I would share my experience because the 11.5 lb spring helped my speed accuracy on the first shot -
Light primer strikes in CZ Shadow 2 with 11.5 hammer spring
Mikemiller69gs replied to matto6's topic in CZ
FWIW - I have an 11.5lb in my SP01 along with the CGW Production kit. It will fire any off the shelf ammo except Winchester White Box. I have probably run 7/8 different brands through and only had one other round not fire (Federal Syntech - Action Pistol 150gr). I'll put that one down as a fluke as i've probably fired 1500 rounds of the Syntech with no issues. But with WWB, every 3-4 rounds would be a light strike. -
Ahh. That makes sense. Thanks

All, I currently shoot in SSP but planned to shoot my Kimber 1911 in the reshoot this Sunday. I was taking inventory this morning and double checking the CDP rules and stumbled accross a rulle in the Magazine Holder section off the General Rules, that stated "Bullets Out" magazine holders were illegal. A. Is this still accurate? B. Why are they illegal? C. If I need to buy another Mag Holder for a single stack, what is your preference? Thanks for your help. Mike

Kimber 1911 45 for IDPA - Set up
Mikemiller69gs replied to Mikemiller69gs's topic in 1911-style Pistols
Cool. Thanks for the help. The gun functions perfectly, once I canned the Kimber Tac mags in favor of some Wilson mags. I'll order some Wolff springs and let it fly. Mike -
I normally shoot a semi cajunized CZ SP01 in IDPA SSP. With the shortage of 9mm ammo, of thought of shooting my Kimber in CDP next month. Short of grips, sights and a Magwell, it’s bone stock. Any suggestions for setup, springs etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mike

I did and I saw options for 16, 17 and 18 round mags. Unless those may work on a 19?

I'm looking for alum base plates for 19 round SP 01 mags. Surfed the net this evening with no luck Any help would be appreciated. Mike

Haha

I'm pretty confident in my mag changes and trigger finger. The first gun I used in IDPA was a Walther PPQ with the paddle mag release and I used my trigger finger to actuate the lever. It quickly created the muscle memory of having my finger off the trigger. Now if I could quit making holes in the friendly targets, I would be set

Cool deal. Now I want all my magazines to do it during matches (assuming we have some soon). Thank you all

Yes

Quick history on the gun. It has the Cajun production kit installed and minor cleanup. I’m guessing I have 1200-1500 rounds through it in the last five months. I have two factory mags and two Mecgar mags and all four are the 19 rounders. Finally allowed to go the range Saturday and I noticed that during mag changes, the slide was automatically closing without me hitting the release. I narrowed it down to one of the Mecgar magazines but I have no idea why. Any thoughts one why it would start doing it now and how I can remedy? Thanks, Mike

HAHA! Well said

Pardon some of my newbie questions. 2019 was my first year shooting competitively, long time shooter just not competitive. Last year I used my Walther Q5 match and I changed nothing. That said, I always shot my 1911 better which lead me to the CZ. Metal frame and DA/SA attracted me. Shot me first match with it this past weekend and I was pleased. I’m never going to win the class (no teenager) but I have a few buddies and we compete at the matches and bench race between matches. It’s great fun and we are learning. Thank you in advance for any help Mike

That’s where I’m confused. Is the CGW 10x bushing ok in IDPA SSP ?
-
Reading about the Cajun barrel bushing and trying to understand the legality in IDPA SSP. My CZ SP01 has a factory bushing already and the Cajun version appears to be a drop in, so why is it illegal? It doesn’t require machining like the CZC version, so I’m confused. Sorry if this has been answered before but I searched and didn’t find a reason.

I used it in a local IDPA match Sunday. I liked it and had no issues.
