Yep, the traction on the sharkskin grips is great but as you noted they’re thin. Too thin for me. Fortunately I have an extra set of burner grips for the future.
Yes, sadly they’re not produced anymore.

It’s a Pilot Mountain Arms Operator. Kart barrel, Caspian slide and frame, etc. Best recollection is I’ve had two or three malfunctions total but they were all ammunition based so they don’t get out...
8000rds down.
Spring replacements at normal intervals, 230gr ball, Vickers Wilson mags, ALG Go Juice for lubricant.
No issues.

Yep, glad we could talk it out (especially in a civilized manner that seems to be absent from most of the internet).
This example is wholly in line with what I stated in my initial post:
"2) If I am drawing the pistol proactively then the weapon does not come off safe, nor does it come out of the holster with the...
I laid out clear distinctions about when to disengage on the draw and when not to. Your example of Pat Mac would also say to begin prepping the trigger of your Glock as you're pressing out. Please...
If the shooter is startled and unintentionally takes the weapon off safe his finger is still off the trigger. So we would now be in the same position someone carrying a Glock is, that is our only...
We need to talk less about the gun and more about circumstances one would deactivate the safety/draw the pistol.
1) If I am drawing the pistol reactively there is some stimulus that tells me I...
USPSA has it right: mandating a "Mozambique Drill" is poor form for competition and training.
If you want to make shooters engage the head...MAKE them engage the head, don't TELL them. IDPA...
AIWB doesn't matter.
IDPA pisses people off because it's a game that wraps itself in faux tactics with Dunning-Kruger Effect to the max. It has a drastically different scoring metric, crowd, and...
This is a sample of one but bears mentioning. I was RO at a USPSA match recently and one of the shooters had am OZ9. At one point, the slide and fire control module came out of the grip. Literally...

The issue, among many, was that people could draw and/or shoot super fast but their hits were inconsequential to the gunfight. They could get very short splits but were putting rounds in the...
It is but I asked for a few slight deviations (full length guide rod, fiber optic front sight, flat trigger, no markings on the slide).
Proper parts, proper assembly/fitting, proper magazine, proper ammo.
Brian Searcy of Pilot Mountain Arms built my pistol. Few thousand rounds of good 230gr Lawman and lube and it's just as boringly...
Chuck would explicitly note that the Roland Special was a concealed carry gun. He doesn't shoot it because he's doing duty gun stuff (IE if it's in a safariland holster let's put the biggest gun in...
