    You and I are thinking along the same lines. I currently run a 9mm PCC with a decent quality 1-4x optic. It's a discontinued Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24 (MOA reticle with capped turrets). It's a great...

    People have done it for a long time. But that's not saying it's a good idea. They used to call it "candy cane" loading.

    I've got well over 50,000 rounds (and maybe more than 75,000 rounds) through various Glock mags (different calibers) with the nubs cut off. They've been handled rough and dropped on all types of...

    Take a razor blade and carefully cut the tiny little "nubs" off the side of the mag. Those nubs are what fit into the baseplate and make it difficult to remove.

    This is exactly the problem. It's simple once you know it well. And the fact that you and many other USPSA types don't understand that perspective is a bigger problem (in the context of bringing...

    The point of this thread is what could be done to USPSA to attract more CCW holder shooters. Simplifying the rules would definitely help. The last time I checked, the USPSA rule book (for handguns...

    What do people mean when they say 3-2-1 or 2-2-1 stage layouts?

    I think the biggest problem with USPSA (not attracting the average CCW holder) is that there are too many rules. To make things...

    Fortunately, it wasn't me. Those pics were sent to me from a friend a while ago, about an incident which I believe took place years ago. Here's what I was told:

    It's not that bad. I've shot a lot of steel, and I would still use that target.

    I'd shoot the same side with 5.56 (not too close), and use the "good side" for close range pistol stuff. What...
