• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

What other forums are you on (hobbies)?

Couple of Maxi Scooter forums, ADV and Chevy Avalanche Fan Club. Just keeping up with machinery

Bob... all my competition pistols are STI... 4 of them are regular production pistols.. my last one is a STI custom.. (not in the pictures)... all of them are chambered for 9mm.. and I load all my ammo... 2 of them I shoot MAJOR the others are for MINOR classification.. meaning the MAJOR are loaded (HOT) around 1400 FPS ... regular loaded Winchester 9mm cartridges are in the 960 FPS ... so thus the reason these pistols are called RACE pistols.. or OPEN classification.. which means most things are legal as long as they are safe... the scopes are Cmore red dot scopes... mags for my race pistols hold 30 rounds each... my pistols are comp fitted for controlling recoil.. I shoot 124gr Precision Delta HP jacketed bullets... lead bullets melt at the speeds we push these bullets so jacketed bullets are required.. my major load for competition is 6.8 gr Auto Comp Winchester powder.. these pistols are a boot to shoot.. they are VERY LOUD however because of the ported comp on the barrel.. but they cycle VERY FAST for the next shoot.. I shoot standing steel matches & EPSY (run & shoot) matches.. I shoot right at 3,000 rounds a month ...

I shot Bullseye for over 30 years. Our toys were never that neat-looking! :thumbup:
I used a grip-mount on my .45, and .38 Wadcutter guns in the outdoor matches; your frame mounts look awesome!

:shocked: Hot loads are FUN!! :clap:
For Bullseye: we load them at levels that will reliably function the pistol, and that's it. No compensators: the muzzle flash would throw off aiming.
My .45 was pitching 200 gr LSWCs down range at about 800 fps, and my .38 was doing the same thing with 148 gr HBWCs at about 650 fps...
You could see them in flight!! nojoke
My .45 was an ex-government gun, that I built from the ground up, and the .38 was a Kart/Caspian monster, that I also had to figure out on my own...
 
I doubt you can see my bullets in flight.. lol... Race pistols are very finicky... because they have lightened slides & hot loads...so they can cycle so fast.. (better for getting off the next shot)... last night we practiced .. one stage there was 5 EPSY targets.. kinda aligned like in a 5 of spades ... one in the middle with the 4 others aligned on the sides... draw & shoot each target twice as fast as you can... I did it in 3.11 seconds... not too shabby ... I love to shoot.. its addictive...

I'm on a couple of snowmobiling forums, DooTalk, and JohnDee a lot, and I log onto a few firefighter/EMS sites as well. I don't own a snowmobile anymore, but I do the grooming for our club. And I'm a firefighter and officer for two departments, as well as an EMT and officer of our service, so I stay pretty busy with all of that. Here's a couple of the units we pull our grooming drags with, and of course the other is a controlled house burn we just did a couple weeks ago.
