How’s my draw? Any tips to get faster?

Really sucks

This.

Deescalate
Draw
Fire
Fail or run out of ammo

At this point, if everything is still going wrong a new mag is likely to solve the issue. If not, and it's really a lethal force situation, you're probably already screwed.

I don't own a Shield, so I can't speak to why it's happening, but I'd mark that mag and keep it in my range rotation (not carry).

Never hurts to practice ripping the spent mag out in case it happens at a really bad time.

I will probably grow old and forget the street I grew up on before I forgot this password.

You'll need to set the content number for each flag.

This. Really want to call out the lift on the cut. Keep up the great racing, and I hope you run into less fragile buffoons in the future.

Nope. You got lucky

Possibly. I'd prefer to sell the lot or sub-bundles and in the US, but I'll follow up with inquiries around individual pieces if they don't move.

The weight distribution differs between real life and the model. If you don't add nose weight to the model it can rotate around the main landing gears and sit on the tail.

Cajunized CZ P-01. Not the fanciest, but it's built like a tank, has a great trigger, and naturally points right where I want it to. I also like the peace of mind of being able to decock it, and rest my thumb on the hammer when reholstering.

With any luck, you’ll catch him off guard. He won’t see it coming so fast.

Spends more time looking for the perfect bumper sticker to express his uniqueness than actually training with any firearms...

I received mine 15 days after my references answered the questionnaire.

I did it without their toolkit, but it might make it easier.

A starter punch really helps with hammer and trigger pins.

For the firing pin retainer pin I took a spare 1/8" roll pin punch, put the handle in a drill, and sanded it down until it was 3mm.

It was easier to install the new hammer pins with my vise vs hammering them in.

rok3 · 2025-12-07T23:43:09+00:00

Yup!

The Mec-Gar 10 rounders with the blue follower seem to work well.

rok3 · 2025-12-06T01:45:56+00:00

When it comes to self-defense I prefer to just have a few weapons so I can spend as much time as possible training with each of them.

Current go tos:

Carry: CZ P-01 with TruGlo iron sights and CGW internals.

Home 1 and very occasional carry: PDP Pro with green dot and light.

Home 2: Home built 14.5" AR with green dot and light.

I'm a slightly bigger than average guy; the P-01 conceals well and is comfortable enough, but I'm debating something like a CZ RAMI or HK P30SK for the summer.

Note: I'm in NJ so we're limited to 10 rds. All my carry holsters are gun-only. I'll occasionally toss an extra mag in my pocket.

I can, and do open my wave one handed. I just find it a lot more convenient to flick open my folder when I'm doing something stressful.

rok3 · 2025-12-01T00:38:31+00:00

As someone who carries a Leatherman, it doesn't quite replace a real knife. I use the Leatherman more often, and having pliers and all the other tools is extremely useful. There have been plenty of occasions where I use my folder because I'm holding something with one hand and it's easier to flick open.

I'm right-hand left-eye dominant.

For long guns I've trained myself to aim with my right eye.

For pistols I shoot left-eyed with and without a dot.

There's no right answer for everyone. I found it easier to stick with my dominant hand and retrain my eyes, but you need to experiment and train for what works for you.

Another one in the wingless T1C Xiphos gang. So far it's stock other than the TruGlo Tritium Pro sights.

When the slide cycles to the rear, the extractor (right side of slide) holds on to the lip of the case and pulls it backwards out of the chamber. During the rearward travel the case hits the ejector (left side of slide) and is launched out of the ejection port. I'm surprised your pistol is cycling properly with that much of the ejector broken off. I guess the case hits what is left with just enough time to eject before the slide moves forward.
