I haven't tested Smith's trigger jobs, but I will say factory 442's and 642's have crappy triggers and are hard to shoot. I'd spend the extra $60 on the chance that it would improve. If you're pretty sure you're going to keep it, $60 is nothing over the years, and you'll save all the hassle and rese...

What do you want to spend?

Since you already shoot USPSA, and a good 5 or 6 carloads of Minnesotans go to Single Stack Nationals every year, I'd think hard about a 45 or 40, but I am sure it won't be the last 1911 you buy.

Fleet Farm in oakdale had sticks on sale last time I was there. Can't remember how much, but I was debating picking them up, they were a lot less than $200/4.

If it's all actually correct I wouldn't rebarrel it. If it doesn't shoot well and you want a shooter, sell it and buy something else. International Harvester made the fewest Garands of any of the manufacturers. Nice, correct IHC garands can sell for over 2K. IHC receivered mixed up guns sell for $90...

It's 8 stages, they are here: http://www.promesaweb.com/registro/brochures/USPSA/2011%20Courses%20of%20Fire.pdf I'd agree with Dan and say if you are brand new there are better uses of money. There are a couple nice things about the state sectional. 1. There are a lot of shooters from all over the s...

It's probably something that should be addressed at a future meeting. RO's contradicting one another and inconsistent application of policies just looks bad and pisses people (read: paying customers) off. If you bring that up, tell them if they have 5-6 guys with 3-4 tokens each shooting trap, it's...

There's a lot of variation out there from RO to RO. Just because something is safe, reasonable and not forbidden in the rules doesn't mean the RO will let you do it. I had a friend who went there on public hours and wasn't allowed to chrono. I imagine a lot of RO's would have let him, but the one th...

Almost looks like you didn't push out the old primer to me, but I am assuming you'd realize you weren't using any new primers...

I can pull 0.16-0.18 doing a bill drill at 7 yards. Controlled pairs I am rarely sub 0.2. I am kind of surprised Mike W isn't faster than 0.23, but maybe that's 10yrds vs. 7yds? I THINK I remember witnessing a .09 split at a match. It was a SCAPSA match prior to SS nats last year. The guy's shots we...

12 boxes of 20rds.

I have the caspian version and it is a POS. That one looks slightly different than mine (mine had no bit driver). It is made in china, the allen wrenches didn't fit anything, (although the small one can be used as punch). The blades/tools are hard fold out. The bushing wrenches aren't the right size...

Fleet farm has them fairly often.
