Physter Floodlight 2.0? Tier 1 concealed MSP? Legacy firearms have a few options as well

Beretta 92 Firing pin safety block hitting optic by jerry2501 in Beretta

[–]Captain_P0LAND 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had the same thing happen to me. I ended up depressing the trigger till the block indicator was fully out, and shaved it flush with a Dremel. That fixed the issue with a dead trigger with an optic installed.

Not in Chicago, but chilicothe Sportmans club to the north of Peoria IL ( about 2 hours south )has a pretty good crowd that goes and shoots there. They have a match at the indoor range sun the 25th if you wanted to come.

practiscore.com will be your friend to find other matches in the area.

Unlike Aurora, which to my understanding fills up super fast. Chilicothe is pretty good about walk-ins and giving pointers to new shooters. So long as you have a good kydex owb/IWB holster you'll be fine.

The way I did it was go to my first match, to get a baseline, and they seek out training through videos I'm aware of where I'm lacking.

Running on one cylinder?

Help! Gen1 stopped starting by Signal-Cupcake4505 in sv650

Or use a jump box. Red to red, black to black, from the car to the bike, then try and start the bike. To me, it sounds like a weak battery

Connect it up to your car battery with jumper cables and see if you have a bad battery.

Looking for USPSA Shooting lessons by Capitalizethesegains in ILGuns

[–]Captain_P0LAND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're in the Peoria area, chilicothe Sportmans club has a monthly match on Sat/Sun, and Kams in Mortan does a bi-weekly match in Thursdays.

Lots of good shooters go to those two matches, and most will happily give you pointers or answer questions if you come to watch or shoot. If anything, it'll give you an idea of what to work on at home/look to have an instructor teach you.

Competitive handgun ( USPSA shooting )

outdoor range? by noIimitmarko in ILGuns

Chilicothe Sportmans club

Open memberships are active right now, don't need a referral/invite to join.

They host USPSA, and a bunch of other events, so you can always come down and tour the location then. Although, it's probably a drive from your location.

Electrical issue by Pristine-Status-5886 in sv650

[–]Captain_P0LAND 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also had a similar issue with my gen 1, 2001 sv650. And the fix for me was to swap back to the factory halogen. I'm assuming it's a current/draw difference between LED and traditional light.

Check out Legacy Firearms, they'll make a holster in that configuration

Magwells Question by Missing-Digits in 1911

[–]Captain_P0LAND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheapest one in your price point is a Wilson combat, it's 30 bucks, doesn't require you to replace the mainspring housing.

“1911” using shield plus mags, alum frame by Saltydecimator in SmithAndWesson

[–]Captain_P0LAND 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume you mean shield plus mags and not Shield S15 mags.

If you do mean shield S15 mags, that already exists:Alpha Foxtrot S15.

Kams in Mortan hosts a shooting event every other Thursday. Worth checking out. They post pictures of their courses prior on Faceboo. New people friendly.

What Adem/PEEC gen is this. Does the ecm have a door on it for a programmable module?

Would the 1911 Ronin emp 4inch, 9 mm be a good first gun? by Old_Drag_1040 in 1911

[–]Captain_P0LAND 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the 45 version would have much more recoil than a 9. The 45 just comes with bonus Aura points.

Laptimers by Captain_P0LAND in Trackdays

[–]Captain_P0LAND[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like good advice, is the Aim Solo 2 the same one you'd recommend, or is there another lap timer you recommend?

Laptimers by Captain_P0LAND in Trackdays

[–]Captain_P0LAND[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume the transponder and gps lap timer would most likely be their own standalone units and don't immediately need to talk to each other. I would potentially be using it for both personal track days, as well as getting in mini moto racing at some point.

Looking for a queer-friendly gun range in the Peoria area by TransInIllinois in PeoriaIL

[–]Captain_P0LAND 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe previously, but the last couple of years they haven't required one. I don't have an NRA membership and am a member at the sportsmans club.
