Para Ordnance LDA 14.45

Para Ordnance LDA 14.45

Mondays Gun was a Para Ordnance LDA 14.45 great job! 



LDA stands for “Light Double Action”… the main purpose for the LDA is to put 1911’s in the holsters of people or organizations(i.e. police departments) that have traditionally been fearful of “cocked and locked” carry. With the LDA system, the external hammer remains down, and each pull of the trigger produces a very light and smooth double action shot.

Winchester Salvo Rifle - Double Barrel Automatic Rifle

Winchester Salvo Rifle - Double Barrel Automatic Rifle

Full Article - http://www.gunsholstersandgear.com/winchester-salvo-rifle/




The Winchester Salvo rifle was a double barrel automatic rifle developed in the 1950’s by Stefan K. Janson.  Winchester developed the rifle for the US military’s Project Salvo, which was to increase the lethality of US combat troops.  The design was approved by Springfield Armory on February 14, 1956 and the gun was delivered by Winchester in 1957.  After trials, the gun was not officially adopted and was turned over to the Springfield Armory museum in 1965.

Mondays disassembled firearm was a Gen 3, Glock 22. The extra parts where 2 extra New York trigger springs.

Mondays disassembled firearm was a Gen 3, Glock 22.  The extra parts where 2 extra New York trigger springs.



GLOCK introduced the G22 .40S&W in 1990 and effectively closed the gap between the heavy .45 Auto, and the internationally proven 9x19. GLOCK was the first manufacturer to make this popular and effective round accessible for law enforcement agencies. Today, police agencies across the U.S., and countless others throughout the world, put their trust in this .40 caliber pistol.

STANDARD All GLOCK pistols are delivered with a standard trigger spring from the factory. It guarantees constant trigger pull resistance over the entire trigger travel.


N.Y.1 The GLOCK Green„New York“ trigger has its name from the New York Police Department. It facilitates officers changing from revolvers to pistols. Increases trigger pull weight from 2,5 kg / 5.5 lb. to 4,9 kg / 11 lb.


N.Y.2 The N.Y.2 Orange trigger spring is even harder than the N.Y.1 trigger spring. The user will obtain a continuous very hard revolver-like increase of the trigger pull weight from 3,2 kg / 7 lb. to 5 kg / 11 lb.

TRAINING SPEED WITH ACCURACY

TRAINING SPEED WITH ACCURACY
BY TIM LAU   |   POSTED ON 11/26/2014 |   IN TRAINING

Full Article: http://modernserviceweapons.com/?p=12724#more-12724



I  was recently surprised by the insight of a Facebook post on the topic of balancing speed and accuracy in training. Not surprisingly, however, was that it came from my buddy, Shin Tanaka. A USPSA Limited Class Grand Master, gifted machinist, 1911 gunsmith, and contributor to Recoil Magazine, Shin is about as well rounded as they come. His post caught my attention as it quantifies a method of balancing your speed and accuracy when it comes to training. According to his post, using USPSA scoring zones, he uses the point system in USPSA to measure whether or not he is being too conservative or pushing his limits. So assuming 5 points for A zone, 4 points for BC zone, and 3 points for D, and 0 points for a no shoot or miss, Shin uses a percentage score to determine whether or not he is pushing his limits. 93-97% of max score is the goal. Above 97% means you need to push the speed harder, and 93% means you need to dial back the speed.
