davidball Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Front Sight? What Front Sight? Edited to add emoticon Here we go again . . . some of us get it early, some of us get it late. Some of us get it early sometimes and then get it late other times. Some of us believe it's a conspiracy by the anti-gunners. Some of use think (know) that our local postmaster reads it first and then delivers it late. Hurricanes sometimes slow delivery down. Your neighbor's dog ate yours. Just thought I would save some posts . . . Everyone should have theirs soon. Nice going revolver guys. Lord knows you deserve more respect than you sometimes get . . . shooting those things with the heavy trigger pull that you gotta reload all the time, and all.

pskys2 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Underlug, ssssh! we don't want anyone to think we're all gettin' soft. Easy triggers, and all. 'Sides Mike's winning trigger job is just a hair over a Dremel on/off switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy trigger pull? You must still be hooked on the Glock thing... Passé (Did I say that out loud?) Alright... GOT MY FRONT SIGHT TODAY. Thanx pskys2 for the coverage of the revo croud at Kansas and congrats on your State Champion title. Mike, the photo only makes you look as fat as me Congrats on another win! Watch out, don't get that thumb caught on the cylinder. The photo on page 19, is that DGSmith? No wonder I can't beat him, he can touch the targets with the muzzle! The revo crowd (other than Jerry) getting photo space... Excellent! Edited November 1, 2006 by Nemo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmoney Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Mike, the photo only makes you look as fat as me Congrats on another win! Thanks! I see the photographer caught my good side. Dave, very nice article! Didn't know an ol' country boy like you would be such a wordsmith. I really like the emphasis on the wheelgunners, but when you say, "Watching an accomplished revolver competitor is more like watching a dancer"--exactly what kind of dancer are you talking about? Y'know, I've been thinking. We've had some great press in Front Sight this year, and I know there's more good P.R. to come over the next few months. So I think our goal for next year is to get a revolver shooter featured on the cover of Front Sight! Wouldn't that be great? I'm thinking we need somebody who is smart, clean-cut, attractive, well-spoken, and polite. Somebody who has no unsavory skeletons in his closet. Somebody who has never passed out in an Ecuadoran brothel, and has never been seen wearing a pith helmet while not on safari. Somebody who doesn't make childish public comments about high-end moonclips and mainsprings, in a desperate and pathetic plea for attention. And I'm thinking it should be a young photogenic guy, a shooter who will represent the very best of everything it is to be the "Revolero Americano" of today, and carry the bright promise of Revolver Division into a shining tomorrow. Luke Fay. It can only be Luke Fay. We need to get Luke on the cover of Front Sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hopalong Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I nominate Johnny Brister............ After all, besides being a good ole Southern boy, He IS the first EVER all gun GM !!!!!!! I think that might rate a Front Sight cover don't you folks? Oh yeah, I forgot.....You guys/gals don't listen to the Hilljack. SAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he's using the Ayoob Wedge Grip, which is an excellent technique for revolver shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Johnny would be another great option. I don't have the pleasure of knowing him. Is he... smart, clean-cut, attractive, well-spoken, and polite. as Luke? He ... has no unsavory skeletons in his closet....has never passed out in an Ecuadoran brothel, ...has never been seen wearing a pith helmet while not on safari ...doesn't make childish public comments about high-end moonclips and mainsprings, in a desperate and pathetic plea for attention. ... is a young photogenic guy, ... is a shooter who will represent the very best of everything it is to be the "Revolero Americano" of today, ... can carry the bright promise of Revolver Division into a shining tomorrow. That's a pretty demanding list of attributes, and judging from the bunch of revolver people I've met we're probably talking about Echo or Lisa Farrell!

Luke Fay. It can only be Luke Fay. We need to get Luke on the cover of Front Sight. Have to respond before reading any further. Actually a cross of Ancient Oriental Kung Fu and Ball Room type dancing, that's what it seems like in my minds eye. Wordsmith...(definition) 50 years of not being able to keep your mouth shut. I was thinking of the same thing next year. I will be carrying a camera more often to catch those glorious moments. Luke's pretty chummy with that El Conqustador fella', but he "looks" clean cut! But then so does El Conq! P.S. fair warning I'm half way thru the article on the Iowa Match. Just trying to fill the story with funnies now, oh and performance reviews!

dgsmith Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 gee I thought I read everything that Mas Ayoob has written. Wedge grip???? It works for me. Even though Dan was showing me a couple things for me to pratice. If I can cut my reloads down to stopwatch time instead of sundial I might be able to step up a class. And Nemo wait till I bring out that 12 inch taurus I have been eying up, i wont even have to move to shoot the stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmoney Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 gee I thought I read everything that Mas Ayoob has written. Wedge grip???? Yep! I don't think my old shooting buddy Mas will mind me scanning in a couple pages from his great book "Stressfire" in order to explain what I'm talking about here: It's a great technique. Sam and I both use it regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
