ElMateo487 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Maybe this'll catch on, maybe not. But post a video of you shooting your Tanfoglio.Requirements:- Must be a Tanfo- Video must be less than 1 minute maybe choose a stage you are proud of? Or a stage you did horribly and want to talk about?But the point being it should be short! I'll be honest, most people don't want to watch your 8 minute long video. Haha. Maybe I am wrong? Maybe it is only ME who doesn't want to....Here is mine:My second Steel match. Doing mostly IDPA over the last few months, this is my first season shooting competitively on any platform.

I loved the no no NOOO text on the screen, but you did "mallninja!" wrong by going slow-motion with the reload. You look slow! Next time play that part at 1.25 x speed so people mistake your reload for Alex Gutt's. Edited November 18, 2016 by MemphisMechanic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only reason. I slowed the reload down because I wanted to show how I improved my reload speeds by gradually just turning up the speed of each video. You caught me.

arkadi Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 They set it up differently for every competition, but core experience stays the same: there is a small house with in-out doors, windows, and shooting downhill. It's fun bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MemphisMechanic Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Very first match with Stock III. Cant reach the mag catch under match stress quite as well as I could in dryfire, so mag changes are glacially slow. But it'll improve with new grips and dryfire.

Reloading them are tough. Once I figured out that I have to get a consistent grip on the mag, and not moving the gun to a specific position, it helped me reload a lot more consistently. I don't really care about how FAST I reload, but about how many times I can reload consistently. Something I learned from a dinner with a couple National contenders was consistency and transitions.

Well yeah. That's the same thing I said back when my reload was consistently a 1.2 - 1.5 second affair. Now that I'm on an unfamiliar platform coming off of 3 years away from the sport, my load feels closer to 5 seconds and has got to actually be well over 2. Suddenly I care about having a fast reload again. (Yours aren't as fast on a Tanfo as Gutt's, but you're no B-class slacker, either.)

Suddenly I care about having a fast reload again. (Yours aren't as fast on a Tanfo as Gutt's, but you're no B-class slacker, either.) It kinda all depends on the stage for me. If I am doing a standards I know I need to nail a reload and the movement of my feet and the grip on my hands, angle of the gun, etc. So in that case I am putting more thought into my reload, and can usually nail it a lot smoother and quicker. If I am just leaving a position I am not thinking about reloading, I am thinking of the front sight and where I am going next if that makes sense. Either way I am just working on a good consistent grip on the magazine once my hand leaves the gun to retrieve the next magazine. Once this occurs and I have a good grip on the mag I can with about 90-93% consistency get a smooth 1.0-1.2 reload to a 7 yard target. Further than that and its usually 1.5 seconds.
