  1. Go to an extra power spring on your mag release and put a detent in your slide stop. That will fix her. Also check for clearance issues with the ejector. Some are a little oversize and they tend to slow the slide down on the back of the cycle. I also make sure I use a variable power recoil spring that it has a little more power at the end of the stroke. You make also want to try to increase your load length a little to max out the mag depth. I have been working on 1911s for 15 years. They are a particular animal. The 9mm is tempermental in it but once I got the bugs out of my eagle it is smokin. I just cant wait to get it back from Bobby at Freedom to be refinished. Cobalt on the lower with atranite on the upper. It should be sweet. It looked like it served 4 tours in WWII when I sent it out. Look forward to seeing you in Dickson

  2. The FAST is one of my favs as well. I usually take an IDPA target and staple an index card to the head and to the body to try to shrink my area down. Anything outside the card doesnt count. That one and dryfire, dryfire, dryfire, and more dryfire, with just a hint more of dryfire. Since I discovered the M&P, my times and accuracy have improved dramatically. It just feels natural.

    Haven't seen you in a while Tad. You need to come to Dickson for our next match on December 4th. It will be 7 stages. I always enjoy watching you shoot. Happy Thanksgiving ALL!

  3. Chip,

    I have withdrawn my comments because they were uncalled for and unrepresentative of the standards that hold myself to. I apologize. I hope you had a great time at the match and look forward to seeing you there in the future. The Safety Officers are the life blood of the sport - they can either make or break the experience of the shooter. It is a big responsibility as well. Thanks to all for comments on the stage designs. I very much enjoy doing them. Some are mine and others are credited to the various matches that I have attended. It is mine and the other members goal to make Music City Tactical Shooters THE range of choice for IDPA competition.

    On the shirt post - that is hilarious!!! I know I will have to take some ribbing from time to time with being a sponsored shooter. It comes with the territory. I am proud to be a member of the Rudy Project USA IDPA Squad, promoting theirs and all of our sponsors products. I consider myself blessed with the opportunity. Maybe we can squad together at the next match in December. I can't wait to see what kind of shirt HOGNut comes up with.

  4. Thats flipping hilarious NUT. I guess I would rather wear my bicycle shirt that that pink one that you keep threatening me with when you beat me. It will probably be a LLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG time before that ever happens.

    I see how you are though - I thought it was Allen's job to grab your junk. What's with the split pants dude - happened at TN State also. Nobody want to see that!!

  5. OK..OK. I have learned that I must shut my mouth. I went to Clarksville with another SO to run a classifer for a group of guys that wanted to shoot Puryear. My SO friend talked me into running it with my son's M&P which was still in my bag. After a few minutes of warm up dry fire in the safe area - holy crap I run it in 98.1 and make MASTER. Shot totally out of my own perceived skill level. Oh well - guess I can't compete in SSP for a while. Back to shooting ESP as a Sharpshooter. No more talking smack about talking smack. LOL
