Do you mean how to setup the stage? There are many ways.... get some paper and start doodling is one way. The stages we shot yesterday were lifted from match books of other matches in the country. I can't remember what the match was called. But I'm in Phx. So the stages were from say a match in Kansas. Just have to google around for the match books with the stages in them. Sometimes they will lift stages from EU IPSC Matches. There is a stage design program in Steam called Practism Designer. It has all the models of the various targets and barrels, etc. You just drag and drop into a pistol bag and arrange them into your stage. Jealous you have the land to shoot on. I hope to get back to the midwest in a few years and get a place with some land so I can plink in my "backyard". :)

It's a very old GoPro Hero4 Session on a tripod mount drilled through the brim of my hat. It still works so just never bothered to upgrade. But have been debating on moving to an Insta camera.

Yes... bull barrel. Prickle grip. Not the extra aggressive. The prickle is grippy but not as grippy as I was expecting. I may do aggressive if I get another one. trigger is the competition trigger. it avg around 2.7# or so. I got RMR optic cut. My only grip with the gun is the tiny little safeties ... i wish they had a wider version. and shielded. the failure to feeds I was getting was due to me riding the slide with my thumb. Otherwise I'm very happy with gun and looking forward to the next match with it.

@@trmentry awesome thank you! 🙏🏻 I’m also looking forward to seeing more of your matches with it!!

I kept riding the slide with my thumb on the safety. I'm use to my open 2011 which has shielded safeties. Wish there was an option for wider and shielded safeties in the build tool.

@@trmentry good to know. I’m supposed to be getting mine this week, I’ll have to train myself not to ride the safety….although it seems like that’s the proper grip on any 2011.

CZ75 Czechmate w/ CZ Custom multi optic mount and various other changes.

My aimbot was broken. LOL

The day after the PSSC i think is the Intro 2 Steel. Similar to Tue Night Steel. Tue Night Steel is where I shot for a few months getting used to things.. then dropped into some USPSA things. But you can start with any of the USPSA ones. Any of them are fine.

CZ75 Czechmate in the Open configuration with some modifications.

Google "IPSC Alex"

Check with your local gun club to see when they run their USPSA or similar practical matches. My club requires a beginning shooter to have passed the safety class OR already be classified in USSPA/Steel Challenge, etc before coming to their first match. So def check with your club as to what their rules are for that. I do recommend taking a safety class if offered. It just teaches you basics of the rules for gun handling on the move etc. Keeping the gun pointed safely downrange, etc. No finger on trigger when on the move, etc. Then just sign up to a match and have fun.

9mm Major

Ye olde flintlock

yah... they were out there.. but the camera makes it look worse than they were. That stage was near the end of day 2 and I was tired... and I didn't want to run to the low window to get on my knees to engage them... so took a chance at the long shots.

It's an old GoPro Session 4 on my hat; the little cube looking thing. I've debated on getting a new camera like the Insta360 or something. But this one just keeps on going. Thanks for watching

Thanks.

yup. it's a CZ Czechmate. 9mm Major.

It's an EGW Sidewinder. I had a dimple drilled into the sight notch so that the set screw will bite into a bit of something to keep it in there. Also had the racker itself trimmed down to fit ... it's a bit long for the slide. CZCustom in Mesa did the work for me. I live local so easy to drop off for work.

Thanks. It's a CZ75 Tac Sport Orange 9mm. I had it milled here locally by CZ Custom for the optic plate.

What do you mean? The slide racker at the back?

@@trmentry Yes sir. I haven’t seen something like that ever. I liked it, just haven’t seen one before. But then again I don’t shoot at a competitive level

@@hardlytrying4838 It's an EGW Sidewinder slide racker. Open division that I was shooing in allows it. You should check out your local clubs, I'm sure they have USPSA or similar matches. They're a lot of fun.

No one asked.

Thanks.

I think either would be fine. Keep in mind hosemasters sometimes has stages >32rounds (thus the name) so on those times, no classifier. can't remember if dirtbaggers has classifiers or not. haven't shot it in a long time. RMAP is good too. RSPP I would wait till you are classed. hope to see you out there.

This is what I'm doing. Your mileage may vary. 124gr JHP from Montana Gold. 6.9gr of Autocomp. 1.140 OAL. My czechmates I got popples installed in them. But I get around 170-174 pf.

Thanks. The next stage had another version of this wild thing. Will see if I can edit up a short of it. This was from the 32nd Annual Spring Steel match.

yeah... the beep did a mind wipe on me. I had wanted to reload when moving from the corner up to that window... but forgot. LOL.

I do (did?). I still have them and will still use them. I have a 2011 on order so picked the one in the video up from someone at the range to attempt to get used to it. LOL

haha... yup. hopefully wont' take long to get used to the new 2011. 😄

Low B.

58% or so. Will prob knock out a high 60s. So I'm heading back to C at this rate. LOL

They are super fun. :)
