  1. Just go to G&A to look at what you want, then go to Range USA to order it. They'll usually get it in less than a week. G&A usually has the best prices, but I'll gladly pay more somewhere else.
  2. check dawson precision: http://www.dawsonprecision.com/CategoryProductList.jsp?cat=SIGHTS+REAR:Glock
  3. Rangemaster- every Friday night (except tomorrow) Range USA- every Tuesday night (range temporarily down) MSSA-2nd and 4th Saturday of each month I rarely miss the MSSA matches and rarely get to shoot Rangermaster or Range USA.
  4. I put these on it: http://www.brownells.com/aspx/ns/store/productdetail.aspx?p=24483 plain black Sevigny Competition. I'm not a huge fan of adjustable sights, but one of the guys I shoot with has a nice adj. rear sight on his Glock. Evan, you know what Roger has?
  5. You can get a dremel tool and some polishing compound and do the same thing, but I'm lazy...
  6. That's right--the 3.5 connector is the only difference. I'm not sure why they call it a 3.5, because the 34's trigger is more like 4.5 pounds. It's a little lighter and a lot grittier than my 19's.
  7. football, camping/hiking, fishing, motorcycles.
  8. I thought it was hypocritical of him to quit South Park after they trashed Scientology. He was happy to take his paycheck while they were trashing every other group in America, but suddenly changed his mind when his work hit home. Beevis and Butthead was better, anyway.
  9. Have you ever been to Guns & Ammo?
  10. I shoot Glocks competitively because Glocks are what I carry. Some would say a 1911 has a better trigger for competition shooting, while others wouldn't. I like 1911s, but I don't think they are that much better for IDPA. I can take a Glock and hold my own against most 1911s. There are three divisions in IDPA for semi-autos: SSP (Stock Service Pistol) is for DAs and is dominated by Glocks, CDP (Custom Defense Pistol), which is where .45 1911s go, (although any .45 owner w/ eight rounds in his magazine can shoot CDP), and ESP (Enhanced Servie Pistol), which consists mostly of 9mm 1911s and slightly modified Glock 9mms and .40s. The reason I am explaining all this is to point out that most 1911 and Glock shooters technically don't shoot against each other. In reality, everyone compares their scores to everyone else. The Glock 34 has a slightly lighter trigger than other Glocks. I am thinking about putting my 19 trigger parts into the 34, mainly because I am so used to that trigger, but also because that gun has 12 or 15,000 rounds through it, and it is slick. Not light, but nicely broken in. Trust me, you don't have to be a dead-eye shot to compete.
  11. After a year of shooting IDPA with a Glock 19, I finally succumbed to the pressures of competition and got a Glock 34. I also have a Comp-Tac paddle holster on the way. Like so many, I originally started shooting IDPA to test/practice with my carry gear. I held out longer than most. I usually use a leather thumb-break holster, and sometimes wear an untucked polo as my concealment. I have even been known to shoot a subcompact at our local matches. I will still shoot a carry gun now and then just to stay sharp with it, but I decided that I need a 34 if I'm ever going to make Master. Special thanks to canynracer for talking me out of that overpriced long barrel HK P30 and convincing me that Glock is the way to go.
  12. Where can you go hiking where a permit is not required?
  13. Check with Rangemaster--I don't remember how much they were, but I'm pretty sure it was less than $25/6. Also, Guns & Ammo used to sell them individually. Keep in mind that, while you really do want five or six .38/.357s for revolver training, you only need one or maybe two 9mms.
  14. That has to be the crappiest video on the internet.
  15. A friend did the same thing with a Rock Island .38 Super and he had the same problem. He solved his problem by using 10 round 9mm magazines by Metalform, I believe.
  16. That sounds like something Marcel Ledbetter may have said.
  17. One of the guys I shot with recorded me on stages 6 and 12: [ame] [/ame][ame] [/ame]
  18. What do you get when you turn a blond upside-down? a brunette with bad breath.
  19. It's not worthless at all--I've never found a reason that would make me WANT to own one (if you are referring to $2500 1911s). I have owned a Colt and a Kimber, however. I know they are sweet shooters (Wilsons, etc.), but many seem like too much trouble. If I thought they were worth it, I'd probably have one. I wouldn't put up with a supermodel wife, either. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.
  20. I won't be watching because it's not football.
  21. Many people misinterpret these charts to mean that bullets actually "rise." They do rise, but only because they are being started on an upward trajectory so they will fall down on target at a specific range. If the barrel were perfectly parallel to the ground, the bullet would start to drop as soon as it left the barrel.
