  1. Where did you get 60 grit SC? Thanks I'm also interested in how one goes about sanding off old SC to put on a fresh batch of SC. I don't use a Dremel much. The sanding wheels don't seem robust enough to remove old SC.
  2. You have link to the 2022 Classic Nationals?
  3. I can't always get someone to film me at a match, so I'm looking for recommendations for 3rd person filming. Also I want to start doing 1st person videos so any reasonably priced options out there? Thanks
  4. Anyone use their new, FMJ, 9mm ammo in 115g, 124g or 147g? In one box of each, I had several failure to fires. After the first few, I put in a brand new 5.5lb striker spring in my G34. After the spring change, I still had the same issue. Is it common knowledge that FM's quality isn't top notch?
  5. Sage advice for sure. I have shot some Precision Delta and Eley and they both would probably chrono at 140 or above out of my G34.
  6. Can't disagree with this thinking either....other than the fact I won't be reloading anytime soon or possibly ever.
  7. Can't disagree with that thinking.
  8. That's what I used and it chronoed at 145.
  9. I was afraid you guys would say what you said. Is there reasons why no factory ammo guys produces 132ish PF out of 5" barrel?
  10. I'm not sure if this is the right place for this post. Anyway, do you have a recommendations for 125PF ammo that reliably passes chrono in a G34? I'm a novice to all this and don't know if one needs to err on the high side and get a PF a fair bit above the minor floor. I shot Federal Syntech 150g 9mm and it chronoed at 145. Federal and Precision Delta are in the 135 range, at least what it says on the box or website. Thanks
  11. No stock. Does going up from 134 to 145 seem typical?
  12. I know basically nothing about this topic. I attended my first match that had a chrono. I was shooting Federal Syntech 9mm 150g ammo out of a G5 Gen 34. It was pretty hot and humid yesterday. Muzzle velocity on the box says 890fps so the PF should have been around 134. It chronoed at 145. Any ideas why that happened? Thanks
  13. Google Ben Stoeger and Steve Anderson books.
  14. This is a response I got in a different forum. I had a similar issue to Flea27 on my 3xl. I sent my dot in and Sig couldn't find anything wrong with it. Then one day after getting it back, while training, it did it again. I took video of the dot being gone and then reappearing after firing a shot. I sent the video to a contact at Sig and they told me to send the optic back in. Turns out they figured out the dot would shift off the lense, giving the appearance it turned off, then after firing it would return to zero. Sig replaced the optic.
  15. It happened in dry and live fire. Sig stepped up and said they will send me a new one.
  16. So I sent it back on 2/22/22 and just got my own one back today. They said they couldn't reproduce the issue, shot 100 rounds while using it and and the unit met spec so it was sent back. I'm pretty pissed that a month later they tell me the thing is working when I know it's not working. Anyone run into this issue with Sig and get a fix? Thanks
  17. Not better, but said slightly differently. You look at the exact spot you want the bullet to land then bring the dot to that point then pull the trigger. Your focus should always be on the spot you want your bullet to hit, not on the dot. Using a dot, when done correctly, allows you to have one focal point, the spot where you want the bullet to hit. Using irons has up to 3 focal points, target/front sight/rear sight.
  18. Interesting. That's what I would have thought in general, but nice to see some data.

    Glock 34 mos. Red dot

    I use a Romeo3 Max with a C-More plate (part # MT-501).
  20. Starting about 2 months ago, the dot would just disappear while I was dry firing. Then it would randomly reappear. 98% of the time the dot always stays on. I have a new battery in it and pushed up that little silver tab that lies underneath the battery. Anyone have other suggestions on how to stop this issue? Thanks
  21. Not a doctor. Where in your foot is the pain? Plantar fasciitis (PF) pain can be in many places but most typically is in the arch or somewhere on the bottom or outside edges of the heel. I've had to deal with PF several times over the years. I'm 60 now. What worked for me most recently is 1) never ever walk around barefoot, especially when you first wake up, 2) buy something like these to wear around the house from the moment you wake up (https://olukai.ca/products/nalu-slide-mens-sandals-black?variant=34542937440391 ), 4) buy a pair of after-market insoles that offer arch support to wear in the shoes you wear outside, 4) stretch your calves 100x a day! Number 1 above was what I believe was the game changer for me. Your experience may vary.
  22. I only belong to an indoor club so basically can't use the calculator since I can't live fire these classifiers, thus I'm trying to work backwards.
