hate to invest time when there may be a more suitable gun
A far more suitable option

Correct answer right there

Recycled Firefighter EDC. The same thing I wear every day and hang my carry guns from.
IDPA is so easy, there's no point in buying gamer gear.

That’s not how it works
That is exactly how it works if you know the system, hold a grudge, and bide your time.

Left side. The white stuff is skin from my left hand. I used JB Weld steel reinforced epoxy because that's what I have on my workbench. The exact epoxy matters a whole lot less than proper surface preparation, mixing, masking, and application. Plenty of youtube tutorials on how to sprinkle the grit. I used blue 3M painters tape for the edges and silly putty around the mag release. Not pretty, but works very well.

Would like to see a pic of the silicon carbide grit job you did. I’m thinking of doing this myself. Do you think the 60/90 grit is course enough and did you use the JB weld liquid epoxy or the paste that turns into steel almost? Thanks
Here you go, right side

OP, get certified as an RO and then make sure to squad with the guy who DQ'd you.
You know what to do next.......

New Glock
Shooting low left
It's you

I'll get some pics tomorrow of the gun and of the epoxy I used.
This is my first carbide grip job, but I think I could have gone even rougher for a competition gun. 60/90 is pretty grippy but still mild enough that I could carry the gun all day. I will say this: 60/90 is rough enough that the gun will not move in my hands if I clamp down on it with 75% of the force that I used to use when it was stippled.

Appreciate the advice . I was looking at the Ben Stoeger packages - seems like a good option - [ all good gear ]
In my old age I've subscribed to the "buy once , cry once !" theory with many things [ within reason ]
Agree with your approach. Nothing wrong with buying sport specific gear (instead of starting with makeshift stuff) if you know what works and what's junk and it's obvious you know the difference.
Even if you don't end up staying in the sport for whatever reason, it's easier to resell quality gear made for the game than cheap junk like Fobus or Uncle Mike's.

That just sounds like poor guy, i am cool with that. It is the ones who look like they are planning on going to war, wearing a tac vest ( plates is a plus), that arab scarf thing, and talking about just using the match for "training." These rend to be the guys that can't hit s#!t, make a ton of excuses why , and never come back, which may not be a bad thing. They also usually ask what they will win before the match starts
LOL, seen them before at long range rifle matches too. They all trained with a "Navy SEAL". Ask them, they'll tell you.

My CO P-10F
Trigger is stock and I see no need to mess with it. OEM recoil spring guide machined to remove front lip, with a ISMI Glock 17 13 lb recoil spring. Maybe G17 round wire springs don't work, but contrary to what some here have said, Glock 17 flat wire springs DO NOT go solid in a P-10F. My slide's travel is unaffected and reliability is 100% with 130 PF loads using both 115 and 147 grain bullets.
Really other than the recoil spring and the stippling, the gun is bone stock. Since that pic was taken I've sanded the stippling off the sides of the grip and laid down 60/90 grit silicon carbide over JB Weld.
Because I've had presbyopia for nearly 10 years, I've developed a really good index out of the holster. That index ability made transitioning to an RDS painless as I never experienced the "can't find the dot" problem.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't a spring that's TOO LIGHT cause more felt recoil as the slide slams to the rear of travel at higher speeds?
The issue with too heavy of a recoil spring is that the slide stops in battery with too much force, driving the muzzle down. That's not an issue with a rifle, because of the proximity of your support hand to the muzzle.

Add another reason IPSC is worse than USPSA
And taking a class before you can shoot
And living in countries where the cops tell you where/when/how/what you can shoot or own

Sounds like a BS call and poor stage design.

SS is a dwindling division. Allowing an optic in that division just might help it grow.
SS isn't dwindling because people can't see the sights. It's dwindling for the same reasons Limited 10 and Revolver are either dead or moribund depending on where you live.
IDPA is the place for you: your gun will be perfect for ESP.

Back when I shot revolver I was faster in ESR then SSR for sure. Split time has little effect on your score. Reloads with moon clips are faster and more consistent over the course of a match. More so if you're shooting a 10+ stage major.
Agree with this, faster reloads > faster splits. Doubly so when faster splits likely mean dropped points.
Dropped points + slower reloads = death.
What would it take for you to shoot revolver?
in USPSA/IPSC Shooting

Unfortunately, your analysis is dead on.
