$1000 for five days of Gunsite training is a good deal IMHO. Everything I do coaching, instructing and shooting is based on my long ago Gunsite training.

Its a rebuild. Several clues in the pics. The stock does not have the Mark I cutout relief. The trigger is standard, not a Mark I. The mag cutoff is standard, not a Mark I. Rear sight leaf is a WWII replacement. Safety is a replacement. Finish appears to be the post war gray-green parkerized. Its been issued, it has been fired...., and there is nothing wrong with that. NOW - - - As far as the store telling you a lie.......

No slug or buckshot targets - - - Hard to believe that Robert designed any of these stages!

Thank You, but they are all very happy and well taken care of where they are right now. Besides they have friends with Combat Grips to keep them company. S&W 24-3.

Thank You Sir for the kind comments. Here is another one for you. S&W 27-2 with the rare 4 inch barrel.

How in the world have I missed this thread for near two years and a chance to pip out one of my S&Ws. Here ya go - - - S&W Model 27-2 with 3.5 inch barrel.

OUTSTANDING Buy! Is that a vintage 1907 sling with it? That could make it even a BIGGER OUTSTANDING Buy.

Gerry has it now!

Yup..., Nothing better than a great day at the range. Too Bad I had to put up with all of those Wild-Eyed Kentuckians in my squad. Just kidding. Thanks to all of Green River Gun Club folks who helped out (and BTW - - - those boys can shoot).

Yeager........ In Before The Lock!

My normal Heavy Metal 3Gun "Right Arm of the Free World" will be staying home in the Ready Rack this time. I plan to shoot my little bullet AKM-74 in 5.45x39 - - - Just for the heck of it!

Oops! Reckon I need to do a better job reading Robert's post for the details. See Ya Saturday.........

Robert, How many rounds for the rifle stage? Thanks,

The anti-aircraft wings are held on by screws that come in from the bottom. I also checked Numrich, and it doesn't look like they have them.

Hmmmm...., Reckon this would be a good time to take my real BUG out of its ankle carry. I understand that the Commonwealth of Kentucky has reciprocity with the Great State of Tennessee.

GREAT Save!

luvmyberetta, you cleary know your way around the M92! I will say one thing my Langdon Elite - - - It has Never, Ever, Failed me in thousands upon thousands of rounds fired even during some long hot days in competition. BTW...., the Elite that phil357 sold you looks NIB. Well Done!

Since the M9 was my "Work-Gun" I shot the Beretta Elite in IDPA for several years. Erine Langdon was shooting for Beretta at the time and winning national championship with the gun. I had Erine do his Level II work to the gun which included his exclusive speed bump trigger with anti-backlash device. Erine's action job brought the double-action pull down to 7 pounds and the single action to 4 pounds. The speed bump trigger also made for faster resets. Its a shame that Erine no longer does any gunsmithing, non does he offer the speed bump trigger for sell. Seems Erine holds the design patent for the trigger, but Beretta has some sort of trademark claims on the part since Erine was under contract with them when he developed the trigger. If IDPA ever breaks out the Stock Service Pistol division into DA/SA and Striker Fired subsets - - - I'll be going back to this Elite.

Got his card!

Trust you'll have some business cards to hand out.

Got an email asking me how I did the cut for the bolt handle. Answer: Slow & Careful I used only handtools - - - round wood rasp, small round and flat files, and the super secret trick tool - - - lipstick. Yup, lipstick. You coat the bottom of the handle with lipstick and press it down on the wood. Where the lipstick marks the wood you rasp and file the wood. You repeat this several times until you get the handle to lock the bolt into battery. You also will need to remove the receiver and barrel in and out of the stock several times to make the cut. Again, the key is to go Slow & Careful. Remove just the amount of wood that the lipstick has marked. You have to get the angle of the handle correct or the depth and width of the cut will be all wrong. What made this cut a bit of a challenge was an existing scrape in the wood right where the handle needed to go. Had to be careful not to splitter it out.

Yes. Page 39 of the IDPA Rule Book. ..... Two full speedloaders/moon clips may be worn directly in front of the holster and they must be positioned as close to the holster as possible. One additional may be worn behind the centerline on either the right or left side for a total of three speedloaders/full moon clips on the belt. ..... In lieu of the use of ammunition carriers, spare magazines (2), speedloaders (3) and moon clips(3) used in a CoF may be carried in the contestant’s pockets......

I think whoever designed the stage mis-understood the term "limited Vickers."
