  1. Robert,

    Oh, but wait, there’s more!
    Not only is there a huge influx of Newtown apps coming in, but, wait for it, Governor Malloy was just busted for trying to court Freedom Group, the owners of Bushmaster, to come to CT and set up shop, 8 days before Sandy Hook happened. So, on te one hand we have a Governor wanting fresh commerce and business opportunity to come to CT, but then he turns around later, (due to politics, of course), and rescinds his offer.

    My State is doomed to fail. Seriously. The upside is the hypocrisy is not being lost on anyone. Even the anti-gunners are pissed, but for different reasons.

  2. Nick – thanks for the step-by-step review of your performance and the great video. I’ve shot IDPA and steel for a few years now, but am going to my first 3-Gun match this weekend…and am terrified!!! Will my shotgun run right, will I be able to reload it quickly enough? Is my rifle zeroed just right? Can I switch from 1x to 4x fast enough? Do I need to? Its nice to see a pro shooter having such questions too.

  3. One note of caution concerning the XDS. 45. When the slide is pushed about a quarter inch out of battery when one is chambered and the mag Is full it stays out of battery and will not fire until being pushed back forward. Mine was back to SA twice and they tell me it “functions as designed and can not be remedied” That being said, it is worthless as a defensive carry piece and will be down the road as soon as I get it. Back. Test yours, I almost guarantee that it will do the same.
