tight guns = less chance of dirt to get in

^ Hum, that explains why my..... wait, nevermind, that's a TOS violation.

[Quack]

well the compression shirt didn't work right for you, soooo....

BTW, crud was the likely cause on why that M&P had a slam fire on HE01 day 3

^ You know, I talked to Preston later that day, after he'd gotten it fixed, but I completely cannot remember what it was....IIRC the fault was a true-mechanical one.

Doug said it was all the crap in there, he also adjusted the candy cane to help with the trigger pull.
Gun was also dry.

^ Ah, nevermind, you talked to Doug!

[Quack]

yeppers. he needed a small screwdriver, so i pulled one out of my utility belt.

You should've gotten a Merit Patch for your supplies readiness, those days.

My range-bag has a lot of stuff (I pulled out a gunsmith's hammer for a classmate on TD01 of HE02), but definitely not enough to even come close to your portable workbench!

[Quack]

it's mainly if a 1911 failed, i had all the tools to get it running. also had my sight pusher with me as well.

[TSiWRX]

^ You could've kept a whole battalion running with your supplies!

^ ROFL! Even my fingers are fat!!!! (Other notes: [1] Even with a compression shirt, I still have moobs! [2] I looked like a friggin' commercial for UnderArmour! )

I took a look at Nino's website, pretty darned impressive!

More seriously:

Costa was right about my inconsistencies. My left elbow isn't locked out on that shot. It's possible (since the casing is in the air) that it broke off due to recoil, but I don't know. The other possibility is that the distance-to-target looks decently close, and I know I don't achieve full lock-out for shorter shots, where I don't need a precise sight-picture.

Regardless, it's something I want to work on.
