welcome, I grew up in colonia. CHS graduate 2004.

Swing by Mike, I'll just mig weld that bad boy in place

does it look like this? If so, that sight gets pressed on from the side, it's cut in such a way that it ussually comes a bit over sized and you file off a small amount of metal to you can force it into place and it'll be snug enough to stay.

Is it pinned? Dove Tail ?

lame, oh well. at 1lb per prices x 5 , it turns out to be crazy money with haz mat, pass

even tried calling up, they wont send it to me, guy assures me there must be a law on the books saying it's illegal. Fail.

says no shipping to NJ? Wtf

dont +2 me bro

I dont care much for those super long range classifiers personally, though - I should start practicing more at that distance. I got the reload off each time, and 1 or 2 shoots after that. 2alpha is dead on with this, look up some youtube videos of some major matches like the super squad at nationals, Their split times are pretty average, i'd say an average of .18-.25 ( depending on division and distance ) . It's everything else a GM does besides actually shooting that puts them so far ahead of everybody else. Eliminating un-needed movements, transitions, moving in and out of shooting positions, etc.

Eliminating revolver division is a start

Sure, that doesn't help. But logistically it always usually happens at pit 3. Pits 1 and 2 are on the small side, which means small stages - quick to shoot, quick to score, and quick to reset. Pit 3 is pretty big, and again - big stage , longer shoot, longer scoring, etc.

Exaggerating, 2 squads, match always bottlenecks back in pit 3

Likewise, Sorry I didn't say goodbye to everybody,but the heat and 3 squad backup to shoot the last stage had me sitting in my truck with the A/C on full blast driving home.

Yup, Everybody seems to automatically recommend a S&W 686 when it comes to revolvers, I understand they are like " old faithful " for plenty of people, but there is plenty more out there to take in to consideration. Personally, an N Frame fits in my hand better, so I have alot of them. Check out the 625, a 6 shot 45 acp, or the S&W 627, a 8 shot 38/357 mag

Sorry I can't make any recommendations, but the saying goes : if it ain't broke, don't fix it . What makes you think it needs a tune up? What exactly do you need repaired ? It either works, or it doesn't. As for a cleaning, I'm sure any semi competent gunsmith, or knowledgeable amateur could handle it

We be on like the donkey kong ?

Jim norman runs this match. Just sign up on the website, if you don't show in the morning it's no big deal

well, if you're in production division - you are limited to 10 rounds in a magazine, most shooters go up to the line with 4 or 5 magazines . If your in Limited division , you can have 15 rounds in your magazine. But, USPSA courses of fire are maxed out at 32 rounds per stage. That's 32 required hits, there may be steel plates, swingers, texas stars, etc etc. It might take you 40 shots to complete the course. 2 magazines isnt enough, at all. I wouldnt show up with less then 5 magazines. Additionally, it's illegal to bring 16 round magazines into the state of NJ.

All triggers will be different. It'll come down to if the gun has had any trigger work done. How many rounds of been through it and trigger cycles. Who knows, same gun might have a different feel if the guy at the factory assembled it on a Monday or a friday.

What do you mean by trigger being different? Without looking at it, S&W has " Target Hammers " which will have a .500 wide trigger and hammer spur, I think some also have a .400 trigger.. Target triggers sometimes have serrated triggers. I think most other standard triggers are about .312 and smooth faced. ... just wait till Bob chimes in, he has all the knowledge on this stuff
