No problem, that's a very valid question, and yes, both myself and a local gunsmith. In fact the problems started happening after the smith got his mitts on it.

I'm running into an issue with my 930SPX that's defying easy diagnosis. I've got over a thousand rounds thru the sucker. The gun's been great up until now and a real value, but now it's goofing up on me in a peculiar way: In any given range session, I can run 8-10 rounds through it without...

I've got a tough choice to make: I have the money set aside for ONE good training course this year, and I've narrowed it down to either... Massad Ayoob's MAG40 Class or Larry Vickers' Intro To Pistol Some background: I'm a C Class USPSA Production shooter/IDPA SSP Sharpshooter...

Depends on the purpose of the trip. If it's just a plinking session with friends, I tend to shoot fewer rounds than usual because I'm too busy talking with my friends. If it's a pistol practice session, then it's usually about 110-ish rounds: One run through the Dot Torture Drill and five or...

Yeah, but that cat would be able to shot an MOA group at 300 yards. Think of the benefit to society! :)

Not really. 3 Gun Nation does it all the time. It's a nice idea, but let's face it, if it couldn't work in auto racing with IROC, it has little chance to take off in shooting.

I have the feeling that Rob Leatham shooting a dead-stock Springfield XD would clean my clock no matter what super deluxe Open class laser blaster I shot. The gun mods in USPSA Production and IDPA SSP are pretty much limited to what an "average joe" might do to their carry gun to make it a...

5.56mm. Cheaper ammo, for one reason. Availability of parts for another.

Ok, how the :cuss: do you keep a Leupold mount secure? This is the sporterized M1903A3 I inherited from my father-in-law when he passed away, and I have it drilled and tap for a Leupold mount. This is my third attempt to keep that rear mount secure, and it worked for the first twenty...

I work from home, so yes, all the time. At the job before that, there was no policy against it, so don't ask, don't tell was the rule.

* ding * This is the correct answer.

If you live in the Copper State, like shooting and spend time online, you're invited out to the Elsy Pearson Range in Casa Grande at the end of the January. We'd love to have you join us!

The new Ruger .22 is interesting: Looks to be a great training gun for their SR9/SR40/SR9C and a complement to their new .22 wheelgun. I'd like to see them complete the series with a .22 version of the LCP and LC9. I like my P3AT, but training with it is a royal pain in the... ... hands. :D...

*ding* See also: Godzilla + Post WWII Japanese history. This is how we as humans cope with vague, ungeneralized fears: We personalize them into monsters. It's been that way ever since Gilgamesh slew Humbaba and we'll probably keep doing it until the Sun expands and swallows up the Earth.

None. Got a metric buttload of accessories, though. I'm ok with that. I've got enough to defend myself and my family, shoot all the competitions I like to shoot and participate in just about any firearms-relayed activity out there. 2012, I want a backup USPSA gun and a new pocket 9mm.

I think it should come with a tiara, high heels and a bouquet of roses. And Bert Park should croon if I put in on.

.22 pistol, .22 rifle, a 1911-sized centerfire pistol or smaller (revolver or semi-auto), a pump-action shotgun with interchangeable barrels) and an AR-15 (Me, I like 16" flat-topped receivers, but your YMMV). The .22's will let you shoot for cheap, the pistol allows you to practice personal...

CZ Shadow for USPSA Production.

The non-adjustable version of this one, bought form the local Wally World. I used it in a four-hour night pistol training class last year, and it was easily up to the task. Plus I like the option of either AAA lithiums for long shelf life or regular AAA alkalines for availability.
