STI Pistol Factory Tour

While in Texas recently Brian, his granddad and I visited the pistol maker STI in Georgetown, Texas (a bit north of Austin).

We enjoyed the tour greatly and were impressed by their operation and people. Brian’s report can be read here:

I doubt most people at the mall would know what it meant, but you would, and that is all that matters!

Atlanta Arms & Ammo

Brian and I wrote a guest post for The Firearm Blog about our visit to Atlanta Arms & Ammo.

Brian & Ken see how ammo is made!

As a side note… I used their .40 match ammo in a class with Rob Leatham yesterday and it shot perfectly! It made major but had less kick than traditional factory ammo and was reliable and accurate.

Center of Mass Tactical

COM Holster and Mag Pouch

Brian and I faired well at the Prize Table at the Utah USPSA Championship.

The gun was gone, but we were still early when we went up to the table and were glad to see the gift certificate from Center of Mass Tactical there on the table. We snatched it up.

They make excellent holsters and other accessories, and I needed a new holster for a Commander sized S&W 1911PD I intend to shoot in IDPA.

I e-mailed COM asking questions, and Rick Palmer, the owner, answered them the same evening. Awesome!

So I called and placed an order for one of Rick’s custom Kydex belt holsters and also a custom 1911 dual mag pouch.

COM will be at the Gun show in Vegas next Saturday (Santa Fe Casino) and Rick also said he is going to try and get out to Desert Sportsman and shoot the USPSA match Sunday morning.

If you can’t get to the gun show just visit them online at www.comholsters.com

Thanks, Rick, for running such a customer and result oriented business. And thanks for being one of the sponsors of our state match.

USPSA themed shirts

Some nifty USPSA oriented shirts can be found at this link:

CafePress is a neat “make it yourself” online shirt shop. Use designs others have put up, or make your own and upload it. I’ve done it a few times before for band shirts and shirts for company parties. A bit pricey but the customizability and ability to do short runs is nice.

The IDPA section has some interesting ones too:
