What SHOULD happen and what does are all too often different things (see highway accident stats), and negligent discharge is the most common gun injury to shooters outside "slide bite". And the most common location of a negligent discharge wound is the lower leg and foot as the most common carry location for years was 3 o'clock. ERs are seeing more injuries to the upper thigh now that appendix is becoming popular.
Which is why i said "with that holster SETUP"
Good on ya for doing Competition. Do you find the microdots easier to find an aimpoint than regular irons during competition? I guess it could be a training thing where comes down to repetition/ familiarity.
Also depends on the competition, some will allow sight aids, some will not.
Like Bar said I also prefer lazers on my pistols
Truth
Thanks for that bit of info bar
You're welcome, but its just my opinion, we all have at least one.
Thanks. It is definitely faster and easier to use either red dot but for some reason I am just faster with the micro.
all I got are opinions lol, I need to retake some handgun courses. I've used handguns in defensive actions when I was in the military.... I could always use more training
Yeah I guess that makes sense you're just used to them.@Bradyn
Speed comes with practice, slow is smooth, smooth is fast, sight picture and muscle memory build speed and smooth. That takes time and money, ammo is expensive, and it takes a LOT of rounds to build speed and accuracy.
Is the only difference between red dot and micro red dot they fact micro are small enough to fit on pistols?
Yes
There also fun on pcc
My team provides the ammo for both my leagues when you pay the annual dues.
On average I shoot 150-300 .22 rounds, 50-100 shotgun rounds, and 50-150 9mm each week from February to October.
Nice, now days the dues would have to be incredibly high to not work out in your favor.
EVERYONE can always use more training, and I'm not saying that because I own a range that does training ... well maybe. Our range caters to LEOs, local, state and federal. And people who make a living carrying firearms need more training. Negligent discharge is twice the rate among LEOs as among the general population of gun owners. They let familiarity breed complacency, which happens to everyone at some point.
I have at least an hour a week at a firing line every week for the last 52 years, for a couple of decades during that time I had an hour or more a day at a firing line. I need more training, even as an instructor.
Cool
Well hopefully next year our teams will be able to find enough ammo to compete.
Have you guys contacted Federal?? I know they have provided ammo to teams in Texas in the past, you may be able to get them as a sponsor and cover at least some ammo costs and provide it.
Winchester also
Winchester provides our trap rounds, and CCI and Federal provide our .22 rounds.
As far as I know all three have said they have ammo on backorder and will try there best to provide us with ammo next season.
We need ammo for the coming civil war.
Ok just checking on options. You can also try contacting Remington, Hornady, Nosler and Speer
If you don't already have ammo for that it may be way too late.
I'd be interested to see how Remington's new owners Vista Outdoors would handle a request like that.
Me too
They've done "OK" with Federal Speer, CCI, Blazer, Hoppes, and others ... we'll have to wait and see.
The guy who posted it said it was an AR7 without its most defining feature whatever the hell that means
lol so .22 i assume.
"most defining feature" 🤔
just looked it up its apparently a .22 survival rifle
not like an m4.
maybe they put in ar-7 into an m4? idek if thats possible though
ar-15* sorry ik m4 is military only xD
yeah that
b/c i saw an ar7 earlier in the chat aswell
