DreGarciaTAT2 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I'm not a great shooter, but I shoot mine in Open. They're an excellent gun to start off with and continue to use until the gun is really holding you back, rather than your skill and comfort with running a stage quickly. Nicely done! Cool stages too!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanatos903 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Thanks, the club really does a good job of putting some fun stages together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 C class? with a run like that....... Uhuh, Well, you only want to get bumped with a match win anyway. Excellent stages and great props. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanatos903 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Heh, I'm only C because I bombed 2/4 of my classifiers. I'm still kicking myself over one where I pulled a mike on an 8 shot course of fire. And I would have shot another one two weeks ago, but I got DQ'd. So maybe I'll eventually make my way up.

mreed911 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Late to the game but as of today I'm running a Glock 19 + FF3 in Carry Optics. All in cost was just the blue-label Glock, the free FF3 and a couple of extra mags @ $18.75 + tax each. I have a "thrift-store limited" Glock 22 (Glock 22 + this thumb rest) I can use in Limited Major but it's not really competitive compared to the class. I love my Glock 21 and it's a natural extension of my hand but unfortunately it doesn't fit in any specific USPSA division other than production.

Xanatos903 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Stock Glocks can do very well in CO, and highly modified Glocks can do well in Limited. I still haven't seen many people shooting CO in my local clubs though, so I don't know if there's a consensus on what guns are best yet. I suspect the P320 will come out on top because of its affordability and great trigger. The RX with the Romeo optic seems like an excellent deal.

Xanatos903 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) It's a running joke with the guys I shoot with, and they won't stop giving me shit for it. They nearly pissed themselves laughing when I got DQ'd because the first thing I said was "Guess I'm going to have to stay C a little while longer."

Pilot172 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I shoot the G34 and G19 in competition. Haven't even tried another brand, just used to them and they work well for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Givo08 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I think shooters get a false sense of confidence shooting 1911/2011 triggers slow fire with no time pressure, where it's much easier to shoot nice tight groups than stock Glock triggers. When you start to push things to max speed on drills like el pres, bill drills from 7-25 yds, accelerator drill, blake drills, etc I don't think the trigger makes a difference in the amount of A/C/D hits you get. That's why most people don't see an actual bump in match performance when they switch from Glocks to STI's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 There are very, very few who can make El Prez in under 4 seconds clean without a 1911 platform. I've RO'd plenty of Grand Masters, and only the few can do it with all A's. Not on full size USPSA steel, on paper. https://www.uspsa.org/classifiers/99-11.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly isn't held back by his Glocks... albeit he is the exception and not the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Well, that's because he is weird. He started with an STI and went to a Glock, that's backwards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MemphisMechanic Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) I know Sevigny did. I dryfired the gun he won GA State with back in the 2008-10 timeframe. "Griiiiitttttt-kachink!" with about five or six pounds of effort in his 34. I think he only won by about 20% over the competing GMs and Ms with their slicked up triggers.

His guns are not anywhere near stock....I took a Vogel class last year, and asked if I could shoot his Glock, he complied and his trigger was rough! Heavy pull, gritty, soft reset... it actually made me sad, knowing he can do what he does with that setup... but hey, you practice with something enough, you're bound to master it, being a Martian probably isn't hurting him either.

Dutchman195 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Just took my G19 with a dovetail mounted RMR to Optics Nationals. I would put it up there with the guys shooting the 34s. It just doesnt look as 'cool' the Taran Combat Master Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin c Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I've shot Glocks in Production (and occasionally L10) for years. Cheap, reliable (when I don't tinker too much with weird combinations of the myriad aftermarket parts) and more than accurate enough. I doubt that I will ever out shoot what my G34's are capable of (A in Production, edging closer to Master). I honestly feel that most even at Master or GM level can't out shoot a properly tuned Glock, despite what most might think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malarkey Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Yep, 2nd place at production Nationals was a G34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiII Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I began shooting the 34 in early 2015 when I started uspsa. With a good trigger, sights and some stippling it can be a competitive production gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
