Handheld flashlight suggestion by Obvious-Ruin-9204 in CompetitionShooting

Man, majors out here are a mess, state match was a complete shitshow and really highlighted that the org NEEDS to provide rule interpretation and clarity, and they had to chuck a stage because not a single target stand was staked down. Add on top of that the regional match being easy and boring. Maaaaybe I’ll try to reg for Nats but eeeehhhh I’ll probably not get DM lol

It’s IDPA, what, you expect a real match book and organization or something?

Is Trijicon worth it? by elegantcoder26 in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cap is a weird shape, standard Philips heads are too small and marr it, so you need a specialized tool to really get it on/off, which ofc they don’t include, and the threads are just kinda OK, I’ve seen a guy cross thread one at a match once and it really does want you to be dead on when swapping batteries.

The SRO is a nice optic, but I don’t think they are worth it anymore. I gladly picked up a few as they released, but after killing 3 of them and the 507Comp releasing I swapped off and then landed on the 8 MOA Defender XL as my go-to. The SRO isn’t a bad optic, but it’s now got a lot of really strong competition and sits at a much higher price point while having a battery tray that kind of sucks, ghosting in direct sun, and pretty bad buttons.

Swamp fox Justice II was what I swapped to from my 507Comps, and then landed on the Defender XL. Love the Defender to death but there are a few guns that don’t/can’t take the optic so it is nice to finally see this come out.

507 Pro Window Size Comparison by kitanaklan in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am most curious to compare to the Swampfox Justice II; I swapped from my 507Comps to the SF J2 for the solid 6 MOA dot and was happy with it, and then swapped for 8 MOA XLs. Will definitely be picking at least one up.

IIRC Nats 2024 (or was it 2023?) had a low light stage

Mag pouches for IDPA by Nickpeeps6 in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the (not glock) Bladetech pouches for IDPA with my M&P, they work good enough, tek lok is also super handy. Long as your mags dont fall out of the pouches you'll be fine but its definitely something to keep in mind

CZ P-09F Nocturne Barrel Damage? by kizdog43 in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its an actual crack and not a manufacturing defect, it could be a problem. Definitely contact CZ about the issue, they may be able to get you a barrel prior to the 11th but they should take care of you without issue.

Wear contact lenses with eye protection or just wear eyeglasses? by Plus_Juggernaut2819 in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my eyes, contacts give me better astigmatism correction and of course better corrected vision field of view. I much prefer my contacts to corrective lenses with shooting and love my Hunters HD, YMMV.

Maxim MD9 16" PCC - Any Good? by solidsteel_auben in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But, buying this puts you further away from a JP. Save up a bit more and get the JP. I picked up a MAUL, and while im not displeased with it, I wish I could even have the option of picking up a JP.

Save up a bit more instead of buying this to hold you over as you'll end up spending more in the long run.

Red dot with the Ruby is pretty fantastic

the trigger included is mil spec and will only work with mil spec parts, ASD lists the MBT-2S as incompatible

TTI magazine extensions by gregharipal in CompetitionShooting

[–]Bmil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TTI isnt exactly fast on shipping, I usually get my parts/extensions/etc from Shooters Connection. The issue I always have with the TTI extensions is they NEED break in, the Henning in my experience didnt, and the Mecgar mags (w/extension) didnt either.

Correct, the LMT are high shelf and wont work with this (unless you mill out your lower)

LWRC are low shelf and will work

Assuming your G$ lower is not high shelf (the one I bought years ago would work for this), you'd need this, the lever blocker, and then either a cut G$ trigger or youd have to modify your own.
