@LOKIUNCIA That's a slide racker. With the scope in the way it's harder to get a good grip on the slide, and in IPSC you sometimes start chamber empty and have to rack one in on the clock. The racker speeds that up a little ;)
@shred2dotnet Now, I know IPSC is mostly about speed, but there is a precision element of course; my question is, what sort of groupings are considered good? I was just wondering because that dot looks rather large.
@666Vertigo It depends on the course of fire. Most of the time the targets are well under 25 yards, with a few to 50 or so. If you can hold a 6" circle out to 50 yards, you're doing very well. That dot is probably 10 to 12 MOA (so 6" at 50, 3" at 25), but by using the top edge of the dot to sight with, or the dot in relation to the target, you can shoot a group smaller than the dot. The advantage of the larger dots is quicker acquisition and faster shot-calling.
@shred2dotnet Of course of course, the speed is key. Thanks for the info, though. Like I said, that dot looked awfully large and incapable of very low MOA :P
wow not many comments. the 38 super must be the most underrated pistol cartridge there is. i just bought a bright stainless colt in super and i'm truely impressed, thats coming from a pretty die hard 45 guy. these things shoot soft, but with 357 magnum performance, i hope through IPSC they will continue to gain popularity, this is a GREAT round.
Yeah, not too many red dots can hold up to long-term IPSC-style (ab)use. Btw, the trick to rapid accurate shooting isn't to keep the gun from moving, it's to have it recoil back to the same spot every time-- you can see that in my 6-reload-6 video.
That's probably more of a video/grip thing since I was shooting one-handed. The comp damps a lot of the recoil, but the basic recoil direction is still a force along the axis of the barrel, and with a grip below that, means a backwards/upwards flip.
that looks kinda raw

Not so!
Have a pair....one stock production....the other Full Custom. Will out shoot most of my gear gathering dust in back of safes.

wow thats cool, so the 38 super recoil tends to push it to the side more i guess.. kinda like the .45 tends to push it straight back./
