One of the joys of a well running 1911 is that transparency and efficiency you can get when running it fast. I discovered that gets somewhat interrupted by brass to the face, with a newly acquired...
This shotgun/RDS video has some useful nuggets concerning dot vs target focus and similar matters. Patience may be needed to ferret out the pertinent details, but I found it interesting to see how...
Ben Avery is a national treasure. I just got back from the Arizona Cup there- a competition that once would bring in 20 countries. Still has a very large turnout.
Also got to shoot a hit factor...
1). You already took the best forward step, finding a local USAA club.
2.) General rule is to get a good riser (Hoyt) and budget limbs until she works up in weight- but if there's a coach at the...
I’m at the Olympic and Paralympic archery team trials in Phoenix at the moment and my snap remark is that there is absolutely nothing off the shelf about the solutions used by Paralympic athletes in...
Plenty of competition setups used in USPSA are either absolutely, or probably, not drop safe. Open single-action guns with 1.5# triggers, CZ Shadow 2’s with two pound SA triggers and extended firing...
That is not what I read.
You do realize you have clearly scored a proper wife, right?
A young man of my acquaintance who decided to go into the Navy for very serious work, after barely missing a slot on the 2016 Olympic team in my sport, turns up at my local USPSA matches every few...

Oh… wait a minute....
The problem with YouTube is that people going there for information often do not know whether that information is correct, valid or useful. This is especially an issue in matters where the outcome...
Be careful what you wish for.
Just wait a few days, some Chicom maker will undoubtedly have one. With a Punisher skull reticle only a button push away.
But, the important question is, green, or red???
Clearly, there is an evolving point of view on this subject, roughly summarized as: those who prefer big, bright dots, small precision dots, green vs red, simple vs complex (dots, dots with circles,...
Yeah, that occurred to me after I wrote that, but I figured I had dug myself a deep enough hole as it was.
It actually reads "Why Big Crips Dots are Better", clearly showing the importance of red dots to gang culture.
I have actually been a member of PF since the beginning (original account was “Archer”) and one reason why I personally think that this site is unique in a sea of places dedicated to the discussion...
One advantage to the stainless model- I lightly dehorned the surgical sharp edges before I glass bead blasted the thing.
If I were a pot-stirrer, I might muse that an ACRO P2 on a Glock is kind of like putting black truffles and a few slices of Jamón Ibérico de Bellota on a McDonalds cheeseburger...
But since I'm...
You're right, I misread the post! The plate I'm discussing allows cocked-and-locked carry and I have had that on the brain lately. Thanks for the correction.
It's a three minute, seven sixteen dollar plate swap, literally.
(Price went up lol)
Buy it directly from H&K, avoid the "other" parts supplier.

It's a backup to a backup to a backup to a backup, but I still have my circa-2000 TRP. Mostly original, except the hand-cut Westinghouse Micarta stocks, Trijicon front sight (to replace one that...
As a follow up, shot the Colt in a time-plus match yesterday. Zero malfunctions. This has turned out to be the first full size 1911 that has a grip safety that is 100% functional for me under time...
I think it's fair to follow up after today's USPSA match with a note that the Colt Competition ran flawlessly through five stages and a classifier. Accuracy was very good, so long as I did my part. ...
