    Reflex Sight Suggestions

    No I believe Pushrod is correct with some reflex sights washing out if you shoot from a dark area into a lighted area. The reflex sights with a light sensing diode will dim the dot in a low light environment to keep the dot from blooming. If your shooting into a lighted area it can be hard to...

    Another consideration is to switch your ammo if your getting light strikes. For example Federal has the most sensitive primers and if your gun light strikes on a Federal primer then you have very serious concerns. In the competition arena many competitors lighten their trigger pulls to a point...

    Glock 20 recommendations - 10mm Ammo

    Ah I did not realize the G40 was a 6". I assumed it was a 5" like the G41. Too bad they don't make a 6" 45. I love the 6" guns for competition and shoot a highly modified G24.

    Reflex Sight Suggestions

    Being able to find the dot is largely muscle memory. It certainly helps if the dot is mounted low on the pistol and you can use the same muscle memory and index you have developed from your iron sight usage. Then it becomes almost instinctive. Regarding it's application on defensive guns I...

    Very discouraged with subcompact autos...

    Not naming names but while working a booth at a major trade show for my previous company a rep from Springfield commented that his XDS was a piece of junk and he was happy to get rid of it. I found this to be very interesting as the XDS was a design that I actually liked as a Glock guy strictly...

    I myself carry the G26 as a primary and the Diamondback DB9 for a Bug. I really like the DB9 for left front pocket carry and keep the G26 IWB 3:00 o'clock. Combo works for me for right hand left hand one is none and two is one. I like being able to have left hand on the gun in the pocket and...

    Reflex Sight Suggestions

    I shoot a red dot sight on Glock handguns for competition. The two I prefer are the Doctor3 and the Trijicon RMR02. I prefer the red dot is buried in the slide meaning the slide is cut so the red dot sits as low as possible. The goal is to get the dot in the same place you would look for your...

    Remember to change mag springs occasionally!

    I mostly do completion shooting (3Gun, USPSA, Steel plate) and I agree changing springs regularly is good preventive maintenance. I would recommend not only magazine springs but every spring in the gun. The springs are a consumable part that will fail over time or when you most need them to...

    Glock 20 recommendations - 10mm Ammo

    @Wisco I believe there is only one manufacturer out there that makes a quality barrel that would meet your requirements. KKM makes a threaded barrel for the G40 but I'm sure other manufactures will follow suit shortly. If you do get the G40 my company makes a great recoil rod spring conversion...

    Cleaning New Magazines

    Wow what a great discussion. If I can put my opinion in as a competition shooter. I clean my magazines religiously every time the hit the dirt. It's just good practice if you want your firearms running correctly. It is such a simple thing to do that can avoid a major problem. In my opinion...

    Sure let us know how it goes. Some additional tips. Cut your finger nails on your thumb back and trim them up nice and even. that shotgun is damn chinese finger trap until you get it modified and/or work out your technique. You can always tell the 1st year 3 gunners because they got one...

    Glock 20 recommendations - 10mm Ammo

    First thing I would do with a 10mm or any glock for that matter is get some good adjustable sights. I love the 10mm but because of cost and recoil I really take more time to aim than slapping on the trigger like my competition 9mms. I'm partial to the speer 10mm 180gr gold dot myself but I tend...

    Do you think you could shoot a Steel Challenge stage faster with this or that?

    On 3 gun stages where they give us the option of using either a rifle or a pistol and the targets are 25 yards and in the pistol is typically faster. Its all about target transitions and a pistol swings faster. That being said a short 14.5" AR style rifle is very pleasant to swing and move with...

    3 gun magazine carriage

    To be honest since your new the shotgun reloading is going to be awkward and something you will need to work on. In 3 gun there are two major skills to practice and are the major factor of competency. That is shotgun reloading, and long range rifle shooting. Most guys when they come out use...

    Cleaning New Magazines

    I absolutely agree I am a competition shooter (uspsa, 3gun, and steel plate matches). We run our guns hard and fast and have seen every kind of malfunction possible. One big key you learn is run clean high quality magazines. Every time they hit the dirt doing a speed reload we will clean them as...

    3 gun magazine carriage

    For AR mags you usually get by with one in the gun and one in the back pocket. Generally most stages can be done with under 40 rounds depending on your ability. Its good to have different mags if you got them. I run a 40 rounder w/ +5 extension that gets me though most run and gun stages without...
