    Yep. SC is a bit $$$$$$...I got 2K from Impact sports down Albury.
    Seem to loose a fair few to the Brass Vultures.
    The TruBor only like SC.
    The Kimber likes Super.

    I did indeed. M.a.d is still getting me a new one if all goes well though. The used one needs the comp backing off a turn to allow it to fit my slide. The odd think is who fitted it cut the barrel and not the comp to fit it. So i can't just put my comp on and skim it to fit, the slide would need cutting back.

    If it's my play barrel, a gap there where i shim it won't matter

    At my club, i feel said vultures are mistaken when they get my sc. Most shoot 9mm but one or two supers or 9x23. With ipsc, they get lost in the grass too

    Blue isn't particularly my favorite color, but that really is just beautiful! Nice!

    I got a new open gun in 9mm a few weeks ago.

    Not looking for my 38 super brass and still shooting open is the best.

    OK... we have been playing with the Blue.
    Here is the latest result.
    The new lighter blue after Fankensteining the dark blue on the right.
    The picture doesn't do it justice.
    For all the Aussies on here that remember the HRBC Bluehawks, This is the exact same colour after the first coat bake. I have just coated a 2nd coat and will bake tomorrow night...
    Very promising...
    Hooroo.
