Ty, looks like they put a bit more of an angle and made the sides slimmer so that it can fit onto Sigs and such without having to take a dremel to it....?

Hey Rey. and I hope you didnt think I was trying to come down on you. Actually, I will agree with doing a "softer" event than USPSA at first if you can or have the opportunity to. Was thinking more about it during the time in the car. This comment is not to take away from any other club, but rather to once again thank and put a spotlight on Shongun, Ron & Mike (Col. Mortimer). My first match was up there and I can honestly say, it was by far the friendliest guys I have met at any organized shoot. There were high level shooters at the match but they went out of their way to make the new guys feel at home and comfortable. To add to it, I already knew a few folks there ahead of time so it was an easy transition into beginning USPSA from just the regular range sessions and a few fun shoot type of events. I know not everyone has that opportunity, but perhaps that is why after catching the bug, trying to spread it like a worse case of Signess. Not only can you shoot a great sport, not only do you shoot with guys you know from the forum... but some of the guys are REALLY good and offer invaluable advice. If someone was brand spanking new, did not know anyone who will be shooting with them, and is shy by nature, I can absolutely see them being discouraged and keeping to themselves. In their case, the Intro course, run by Mike would be a great place to start.

Just go and do it. =) If we can find you a rig to use... even better. Will ask around, or I would pm the guys that said they are going. You will get a safety brief in the morning of the course. You just have to show up early, by 9am, even better if you are there earlier for setup. USPSA is not rocket science and everyone has been very very very friendly and helpful. New shooters shoot last in the squads, so plenty of time. As long as you breathe and relax, and focus on staying safe, you are good. We shouldn't raise the barriers to entry even higher making people go to an into event. Is it helpful, sure, is it a requirement? No. As long as you inform the RO that you are new... they will take care of you. The guys I have been squadded here, Ronny's crew has been extremely helpful and took in the new shooters under their wing.

Moved this to the appropriate forum... This has been covered hundreds of times before. One of our vendors has covered this in a sticky. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/9657-firearm-purchasing-requirements-as-it-applies-to-nj-resident/

Ah, she is about the Ak47... although she would state Vepr. =P

I am sure someone has a rig to borrow.

oooh, yes, would of gone...oh well, this month is shot... uspsa matches. lol.

Wolfy, but why did she put a round in her chest.... that is the key.

She is up with modern firearms... although knows the differences between Mosins, Mausers and the Swiss. If I ask her what comes after AK, she will take it as an insult and beat me up... Tim will let it happen. lol.

For those that dont know, Anastasia works as an Analytical Chemist at a lab... I get this message from her today... "We use a chemical that abbreviates as AR, so every-time I write it, I stop myself before adding 15"

I think someone is curing themselves of the Signess.

Was a good time. Looked at some fun toys, got some brass.

Some companies dont let you post pricing....

Difference between T1 and H1?

Vin, Marlon registered the same day as I did. The holdup up was that the registrations were sent in at the same time the USPSA was doing the monthly updates. I emailed USPSA and got the member number. Marlon should do the same. I still did not get the registration packet in the mail though. In any case, they will report all scores where you are marked Pending with USPSA, and you obviously pay the member price at the events.

wow. Great story on that one. Only thing it is missing is being an Ex Dragoon fighting in the Spanish civil war. =) currently have a discussion of what the MO marks mean on a russian firearms forum... as MO is absolutely not "Ministerstvo Oborovno", er Ministry of Defense, as well, it didnt exist back then. Common belief it was marked for "Moscowskaya Oblast", meaning Moscow Region. In either case... great piece!

I have 2 BHP's with mag safeties... blah. I felt like a retard after cleaning it to put the hammer down and it wouldn't go down.... I thought I put the gun back together wrong but then figured out there was no mag in it. Buy the L. Do you want your competition gun to be taken away god forbid you have to use it for self defense? And besides... your USPSA gun needs a backup. =)

so if we did want to put a magnifier on it later... what would we need?

This is a terrific opportunity to get a rare opportunity to buy a top notch, one of a kind optics and mount package. Shane is an expert in this field, and if this mount is anything like another one that I had an opportunity to look at, a premier solution. A few questions Shane... the Aimpoint T1, are there magnifier options avail for it? And for the newbies... why is this mount better over the integrated picattiny one.

Oh, I love the fact that the slide sits in the frame.... I am just not a fan of the thin slide to grip. =) The baby eagle is not bad at all when it comes to it though.

not to thread jack, but if the job is sooo bad, why not find another place? or start looking for one.

Marlon, they were very behind on it. I sent a few emails to USPSA and got a response. I still did not get my packet in the mail. Email [email protected] He is the person doing registrations.

Moving to appropriate section.

yes... am interested... otherwise it seems like this is just for Sh*ts and giggles?

Just a reminder... register here... http://www.obcats.com/ and woot woot... got my USPSA number today.... finally, although still not showing up in system.
