How did everyone do?

 

This was my first match so I focused on hit the A's instead of beat the clock and I was very happy because I was right on the center. The last stage was some steel plates and that didn't go that well... I end up shooting something like 15 extra rounds to pop all the plates down. Everybody was very friendly and extremely helpful. I can't wait for the next one! I'll be going to Old Bridge the 27th.

Steel will do that to you. i was lucky enough to get some steel practice at a GSSF match a couple of weeks ago, otherwise I'd have been much slower. that's a perfect strategy, get the acuracy down first then work on the speed. who's squad were you on? i was with Ralph and Karen.

I was with Ron. We were the first ones to shoot "El Presidente" you started on the other side of the berm. Are you going to OB the 27th?

I am out of practice but I did good on the steel. Steel is the toughest to shoot. No one sees a "D" hit but eveyone, including you, knows you missed a steel target. I practice with these: http://www.newboldtargets.com/law-enfor ... for-le.htm I made a stand with 2x4s.

 

I forget who asked but the ready condition for a SA/DA pistol in Production Division is a round in the chamber, hammer down and safety off as per Rule 8.1.2.3 and Appendix D.

I was totally off on the steel. I attribute that to my front sight. Im going to get it fixed for the next match at OB.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
