    Best .40 single stack mag

    in IDPA Shooting

    Posted · Edited by 9x21

    My buddy Dave is now been infected with IDPA,

    Looking for a good IDPA pistol, he has found a great single stack .40.

    Which Tripp 9+1 mag is recommended for .40

    .40 or .10MM (for longer OVAL)

    Let us know your experience................ :bow:

    John,

    What Flashlight tecnique??? he he he :blush:

    That's what everyone asked about mine (lack of) technique! :angry2:

    (get some F'in velcro) Its hard to reload & hold a friggin flashlight at the same time, although walking & chewing gum gives me trouble................... :D

    Biggest deal is making sure your pistol goes to slide lock & you can drop the slide after the reload....

    (I'd cheat, and bent up that slide release on that Glockenspiel & superglue some skateboard tape on it, that is If I could even shoot a Glock) :P

    PS,

    you didn't sell your open gun I hope?

    Dutchess Co. 3/30 see you there. no pistol? come anyway, we got extras.....just PM me :lol:

    Of course, the second stage was in the dark also, little better on that one until I dropped my mag on the reload!

    Surely you dropped that mag after the stage was over and you were arranging your gear - that's the way I remember it. The MD would have seen it if it were any other way.

    Craig

    Yeah, that's what happened................

    PS, I'll try working up some 180PF flame throwers for my wheelie, may have to try'em in Dave's Ruger first though! :P

    So last night, I go to the local match, ready to try & shoot yet another pistol.

    The plan was to try my 586 in SSR......

    Of course the match started with a low light (in this case, just about no light stage)

    As I'm waiting to shoot, looking at my poor excuse of a flash light, I decide this isn't a great idea to try two new things at the same time. (shooting a wheelie & trying to use a flashlight at the same time!) :wacko:

    Quick switch to my 1911 ESP and ....

    Well, we really should have had nightvision video!

    Beep, can't find the light in my pocket , then can't find the on button, geezzz, :blink:

    No night sights, pointed the flash light in the wrong direction, fumbled & bumbled, you get the picture.........

    Finally put it back in my pocket & used the "Force".... :surprise:

    Of course, the second stage was in the dark also, little better on that one until I dropped my mag on the reload!

    Once again, I have a new found respect for IDPA shooters & their skill sets! :bow:

    Off to order a miners hat! :P

    Can't wait for the BUG gun experience............ :(

    686 SSR

    Craig

    I'm working on it,

    I'll suprise you one night........

    Can't decide between moon clips or comp III's........... :devil:

    Comp IIIs. Moonclips will put you in ESR, so you'd have to load to a 165 PF and shoot against easier-reloading 625s. Besides, it takes class to shoot with speedloaders. ;)

    Thanks for the info, I gotta keep reading that rule book!

    Comp III's it will be.............

    Thanks again!

    It does,

    and is easy to shoot,

    but............

    Being the old cheat'nmfn USPSA/IPSC (gamey) shooter I am,

    :lol: It looks to me like 9+1 in the single stack may be the way to go!

    no more than 18 rounds per course, gun to slide lock after 5 targets, reload four targets to go!

    (odd number round (10+1,8+1) pistols have to re-engage the same target twice!)

    time is money :cheers: (or at least a better finish!)

    So now I'm getting down to it,

    Learning as I go.

    Pistol #1, Caspian widebody 38super ESP, minor loads, makes weight, new mag pads coming to make the box. With a little work it goes to slide lock most of the time......rounds: 10+1

    Pistol #2, Single stack 9mm/38 super ESP, this is an old single stack comp gun, Dan Sierpina my old gun plumber is willing to convert it back to bushing barrel, goes to slide lock 95% of the time. rounds: 9+1

    Pistol #3, STI .45 widebody, commander slide, bushing barrel. Shoots low (with 19 year old 200 gr SWC 175 PF) with fixed Novak sights, ( I have adjustable to install ) can use for CDP or ESP. if I understand rules correctly.................. <_< can go 10+1 or 8+1

    Opinions Please, which one would you use for IDPA?

    My first IDPA match

    Posted · Edited by 9x21

    Does anyone know of base pads for Caspian wide bodies that will allow it to fit the box?

    Just checking, before I start grinding away, they are just a little too long!

    :ph34r:

    After I ruined one mag, I decided to take a really radical approach, I called Caspian.

    Guess what, thay already make a flat mag base pad that fits the IDPA box, ordered 10 today.

    Hey Merlin! :surprise:

    I never got past the weigh in with my endevor... Makes me wish I had tried a different set of scales.....Now I wonder if I sold my Caspian (way to cheaply) based on a shitty inaccurate set of scales.

    I got this one for 7 beans from here (you must have been sleeping that day Merlin), all I had to do was remove the scope mount & install Bomars...Shoots like a Champ

    It even came w/ four mags............... :rolleyes:

    Even a blind squirrel gets an acorn sometimes.. :lol:
