MBaban Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 After taking an IPSC class, we shot 3 stages like we were in a real IPSC match. When I was filling my form, I as what my opstions were to maximize shooting the Glock 35 in major. One instructor informed me that I have to shoot production in minor, so I asked whether I could shoot L10 or Limited. He iformed me that I would need high cap for the Limited. By shooting in the Production, it cost me some points, I wld have shot in th L10 or Limited. Is the Glock 35 able to compete in the L10 and Limited? newbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooter Grrl Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Hi there! Production did NOT cost you points - EVERYONE in production is scored on the same scale Yes, your G35 can be used Limited 10 and Limited both. They are basically the same as far as gun requirements, with the difference being in Limited 10, you can only load 10 rounds in the mags. As a matter of fact, I have a friend that won a major match in C Class Open with his G35 - go figure! So basically, it's all up to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I'd only add that if you choose to compete in Limited, you may want to get some pre-ban mags and mag extensions depending on where you live. The G35 can hold 20 + 1 with the Arredondo Extension. Or you can play with ten rounders but you really got to practice the reloads if you're gonna shoot limited with those....

Flexmoney Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 If you were shooting with Major power factor ammo, then you can (and likely should) shoot in Limited or Limited 10. If you only have 10 round mags, then Limited 10 would be the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhino Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Thanks for th reply, I'm doing the 4 qualifiers this weekend, so I will compete in the L10. Now that I have read the rules. newbie Welcome to the sport! As the others have indicated, you don't really lose anything by shooting your G35 in Production Division because everyone is scored as minor power factor, regardless of their actual caliber or power factor. The only disadvantage would be that some of the others might be shooting guns with slightly less perceived recoil. If I were you, I'd go with Production, especially if you're going to use carry-type holster and mag pouches. Good luck and remember to keep your gun point downrange no matter what else happens!

Matthew_Mink Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I had good luck shooting the entire 2002 season with my G35 in Lim/Lim10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBaban Posted April 24, 2003 Author Share Posted April 24, 2003 Mathew, what is your 35 setup shooting Lim/L10? newbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_Mink Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Safariland 007, 771 mag holders, belt. (i think those are the part #'s) G35 w/Heinie slantpro rear, Dawson precision front .125, KKM barrel, Wolff guide rod, Wolff 15# spring, Vanek Trigger 1 1/4#, JP magwell, and liberal amounts of grip tape. Use Factory Glock 3rd gen mags with Taylor Freelance +5's, and plain ole 3rd Gen mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBaban Posted April 25, 2003 Author Share Posted April 25, 2003 What distance did you regulate your sights in? Do you find that you have to adjust your aim with the fix sights when changing loads? newbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Di Vita Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 All guns are different. I think you would be better served by just benching your gun and shooting groups (which you should do anyway ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_Mink Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 As Jake said, you should always see where your gun shoots at all distances you plan to shoot. For instance, I know exactly where this gun shoots out to 50 yards, which is max for USPSA. I shoot a 200 gr load at 169pf and it hits about an 1" low at 50, so does my 180gr 140pf load. 1" is not enough to worry about. I just shoot where the sights are pointed at any distance for USPSA, and it don't get much easier than that! And these sights are fixed, so I do not have to worry about the sight moving around on me, which the factory one had a habit of doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
