    The most durable/reliable 9mm that money can buy???

    "Hello guys! I have some great news but also need your help. My father has just promised to get me a new pistol regardless of is price as soon as he starts to work as a professor at the university! So I really don’t need something that is going to be just a collector item, I want something I can...

    Choosing a pistol specifically for Production

    I didn't say the M&P was a lessor choice because the CZ wins more. Th M&P is a great LEO gun and works well in IDPA. It is lighter and can be drawn faster by most mortals which is more of an advantage in IDPA where stages are relatively short compared to IPSC/USPSA. The Shadow certainly will...

    Choosing a pistol specifically for Production

    To make weight you have to get the Shadow down to 39oz. To do so buy Dennis Marshal thin grips for the gun (.4oz) and replace the mag brake with one meant for the 75B - you have to cut out notches out of the mag break where the grips pushing piece extends out from the frame. With those two...

    CZ 75s in .40 any good?

    Matai you can't go wrong with a CZ 75 B in .40 cal. I have my eyes on one as my next buy. I already have a Tanfoglio with a .40Cal top end but want the 75B to play IDPA. You wpn't be sorry. Take Care Bob

    CZ 75b bright nickel

    Just a word of warning, do not go looking at the 75D PCR. If you do well it was your own fault for looking....sorry but there is no cure. Take Care Bob

    Choosing a pistol specifically for Production

    Worldwide the CZ SP-01 Shadow is the winningest pistol in IPSC Production. The M&P Pro works well in IDPA but for IPSC or USPSA I would go with the SP-01 Shadow. If you are serious about USPSA then the price difference between the two pistols should not even be a consideration. Over a couple...

    What 9mm Ammo for IDPA?

    I have been shooting 124 gr cast and plated truncated cone bullets but recently discovered 147+gr bullet cast from WW. Very soft shooting when pushed with 2.7 gr of Win 231 - the bullets drop out of my mould at 156 gr! Personally I found the 124 gr bullets to be very accurate. The 115s are...

    CZ75, are they really that good??

    Striker fired polymer gun vs all steel hammer fired. The grip on the CZ is about as good as it gets. My five plus a Tanfoglio are accurate and extremely reliable. I also have a M&P in 9MM. Great gun, not as accurate as the CZ but just as reliable. Both work well for me in IDPA. If I could...

    gun for IDPA, or IPSC

    "Why is it that the IDPA rules prohibit competition by the 10mm, 40S&W against the 45acp in the CDP? The CDP is limited to 45acp only." "Just because" is the best answer that can be given. Keeps the old cartridge alive and well in the shooting sports. Take Care Bob

    gun for IDPA, or IPSC

    Hey Sam for playing revolver up here we have a rule exempton to allow us to use 6" revolvers for competition in Canada only. Without such an exemption we would really not have had a revolver division at all. I do like the 5" rule though. Guys use 5' revolvers up here for wilderness carry so a...

    gun for IDPA, or IPSC

    True enough. That said a lot of new shooters read these forums and may get the idea that the 97B is legal for IDPA under the current rules. That is the only reason why I posted what I did. I hope HQ, when they do the next rule revision take a hard look at the evolving firearms industry and...

    gun for IDPA, or IPSC

    Idpa alex "I did this but with a CZ 97b and not only I shot in the CDP and ESP div. but I could also shoot in the SSP div." Nope! The CZ97B is to heavy for SSP division (It has a full length dustcover) therefore it does not meet divisional requirements so it cannot be shot in ESP or CDP...

    WA State Alien Firearms Licenses

    Not enough powder W231 & .45 ACP?

    Seems awlful low to me. With that charge you ought to be able to watch your bullets fly through the air. 5.4 gr of 231 under Montana Gold 230 gr jacketed gave me 790 fps out of my Para SSP. Take Care Bob

    Best holster for CZ 75B

    If you like Kydex, which is fast on the draw with good retention I would take a hard look at Blade Tech. I have several of their holsters for playing the games and they ride nice and are comfortable. Take Care Bob
