chuckpetree Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Finally bit the bullet. STI CASPIAN made by Cogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 That is a very nice looking piece of equipment. :bow: Good luck with it (Glad I'm not competing against that gun). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckpetree Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Now if only the shooter could ever shoot as well as it does that would be the masterpiece. Thanks Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Even my standard, inexpensive TruBor shoots better than I do .... Your gun would be real overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckpetree Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Just hope I can do it justice. I have never been one to let my equipment be an excuse in any sport. If I did bad it was always on me. Now after 20 years not competing I am sure it will be me if there is an issue. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RippinSVT Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Planning to shoot AP with it? If I know anything about C-mores, you'll getting googly eyes at 50 yards trying to center that dot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toothguy Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 That's a nice set up. If you were thinking about shooting Action pistol and USPSA you could get one of Protocol Design's shrouds and match the C-more mount pattern, so you could switch back after the Cup. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=187447 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckpetree Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 was thinking I needed to discuss that with Warren before next Bianchi. Wrist has me sidelined this year for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan550 Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Definitely get a shroud with "wings" for Bianchi Cup stuff. That gun as it stands is considered an "Open Modified" and that category is all but defunct at the Cup. With the shroud & wings, you'll have a top-notch Bianchi Open setup!

chuckpetree Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Definitely thinking stick shift mount with wings should do. Surprised toolguy has not piped up on this yet. He is probably real busy right now though. Edited March 19, 2016 by chuckpetree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toolguy Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 If you do a Stick Shift Barricade Mount you can just take off the wings for USPSA and put them back on for NRA Action. It's about a 3 minute changeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckpetree Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 So, I took the Caspian out today. It shoots great. No ftp, fte and piles the empty casing in a neat little pile about a foot in diameter. Cogan did a hell of a job on this one. Now the bad. About half way through the session cmore scope started doing large starburst pattern and would come back once in a while to a dot. Also noticed out of the 4 magazines that fed great none of them would lock the slide back when empty. Looks like more green to finish off the project.

chuckpetree Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Trigger breaks at about 1.75lbs and comp works great as well. Gun is great accessories need fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toolguy Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 That's why no one in Bianchi shoots a Cmore. There are dozens of threads on the Enos Forums about broken Cmores with a myriad of problems. If you look at a slow-mo of a Cmore during the firing sequence it looks like a fish flopping around out of water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckpetree Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Yep, guess that new mount and red dot will take care of that when I get the coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamboo Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) Do you need the mag/gun set up to lock the slide back? I think in another thread you indicated you had the old style 19 round mags (which are very reliable). When I was using those they never locked back in my guns, but for me in IPSC/USPSA that was a good thing. Edited March 22, 2016 by Bamboo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckpetree Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 Always kind of had my slide lock back. I don't usually count rounds, getting to old to remember what number the last one was anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldfieldshooter Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Chuck Trigger has to above 2 lb. In NRA Action if you have gone to slide lock you have probably made a mistake loading your mags. None of my mags lock back now; after pushing the lever into engagement with my thumb during a string I rounded off the catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gm iprod Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I took mine out completely. Just don't trust the idiot using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
