@@Dylanjamescraig Epidemic Sound 2024 song. But you’re right! I’m thinking it made a full circle?
But what happens when you're sitting in a booth at a restaurant and can't get your elbow back..😯
The same if a 300 pound person is sitting on your chest, I would imagine?
double action every trigger pull? for a edc? or am i just loosing it?
Great Eyes! Hybrid pull. But yes, your eyes do not deceive you. LEM trigger for competition or something like that?
You have great information but drop the music. It is hard to hear you over it.
@@JackHouse-s1i Thank you! This was an older video when I didn’t know my volume levels were an issue. A huge thanks to subscribers such as yourself, for letting me know. I’ll reduce this one for you.
First 100 I may add.
Another great video
@@BPShootingReloading appreciate it Bryan!
Pro Tip: if you use a 3rd mag carrier located at 4-6 o’clock for loading your gun, take it off for seated starts and load your initial mag from your pocket. That way your 3rd mag carrier doesn’t hook on the back of the chair when getting up and take it with you 😆
@@BabyGiraffeIDPA How would you know this?😳
@@PaulGeePersonal experience 😂
Thank you
Time for the 5-shot wackos to do it again. You can pick the match.
@@BK-md9mt BUG-R… Really? Wacko!
Thank you! Super valuable! Please do more of these. Help mitigates PE's lol!
@@fuswatenetke8295 I’m on it!
Excellent how too
@@williambarnette1049 thx brother!
Where did this update come from? It's not included in the Updates to Rulebook and Match Administration Rules for 2025.
@@kimisdaman This is a memo to distribute to all MD of a rule clarification by the East Coast AC meeting with IDPA HQ last Month. No confirmation when the 2025 Rules will be provided. Will let you know when I do!
I have used the Salomon Fellraiser and Speedtrak (both discontinued) because of their wider sole than the popular Salomon Speedcross. My next shoe may be the Inov8 Mudtalon.
@@mr.e9727 Send me videos!
Fellraiser is an interesting name…
I watched someone take a penalty for pie slicing in horizontal cover. As someone who shoots USPSA I was already finding the rules about target order to be annoying, but to see a more experienced shooter get caught up by those rules was really off-putting.
@@Colonel_Flanders I share the same frustration. My Dad taught me to do something if you see pain and frustration. Getting everyone on the same page is my first goal.
My brain should not hurt after trying to interpret the IDPA rule book. Thanks for trying to help Paul! Erik E.
@@mr.e9727 Lol. That’s why I’m stepping to help ease that. But sometimes…🙄
Hey Paul, just a heads up. The rule says nothing about wide, Wide is a misnomer. One could interpret wide as width. However, A port would require fault lines if it was 18” wide and 30” tall. I’ve seen this very thing go either way and it frustrates shooters to halt their participation in the game. It seems the easiest way would be; If they put a fault line there is a slicing the pie, priority. If there is no fault line, treat it as in the open, near too far.
That’s for clarification! Glad this has been updated. Can we add to the rules “When opened: X rule. If not opened, treat as hard cover.”
Hoping the clarification helps across the board. Different regions were treating windows/ports differently last year that I experienced, so having everyone on the same page would be good.
@@armoredhippo My goal is to establish consistency with the ACs. Not sure it’s in my job description?
@@PaulGee gotta be a Sisyphean task. good luck!
@ I’m going to need it.
@@PaulGeeI sure hope you succeed. Seems like every match I go to the rules have been “re-imagined”.
@ The fight is the self interpretation. This is where I come in.
👍🏾
Excellent clarification Paul and thanks for getting this out there. Hopefully it will clear up any confusion.
Clear as mud…
I’m thinking that this rule is not too bad in and of itself I just wonder what prompted it
@@williambarnette1049 individual Interpretation…
Paul, I got it a couple of weeks ago. It shoots so flat!! I thought I read in the rule book that ported barrels weren’t allowed in CO
@@dryfly1999 SSP Rule A.1.4.8 may be where you read it?
I recently purchased a BUL Armory EDC Pro (2011 style 9mm pistol with ported barrel and magwell). Which IDPA division would this fall under? Keep those great vids coming!
ESP or CO. Impressive, very impressive! Need to do a podcast with you when you get it!
What does Fred say about this?
@@mr.e9727 Oh you don’t want to know what he said. 😳
I literally got a PE for picking up the mag on the table and held it while shooting then used it to reload in a lvl 4 idpa match 2 months ago …
@@Captaintl1711 Truth be said, I wasn’t very forgiving on the first time I heard it either. But the AC had a great argument.
lol, that would have been handy info to know prior to Sheepdog!
@@ShooterReady489 Yes sir.
If you are trying to find the dot you are not using t he red dot correctly. Target focus is the key and remaining target focus with good presentation the dot will appear to superimpose at the spot you are burning your eyes to. Do not look at the dot look at the spot you are wanting the bullets to go.
@@eddiepereira9628 appreciate the tip! Great info.
@@PaulGeeyou'll get the hang of it with enough practice. Switching to a DOT and getting good with it is the best thing you could have ever done. I think I was pretty decent with iron sights but switching to a DOT was definitely a game changer for me 🙂 I also use green dots as well 😎
@ DARK SIDE! 😳
Which exactly point in rulebook gives a competitor freedom "how to secure" magazine in such situation? Or the fact that point limiting this matter doesn't exist is the answer here?
I outlined the answer for you in the video.
@@PaulGeeWell, there's no reference to any rulebook point.
@@ShoreTea3 because the rule book doesn't tell you that you have to stow it if it starts staged.
@@ShoreTea3 Exclusive service and attention are reserved for our Channel Supporters. Please consider signing up for additional assistance. Thank you
It would only be a PE if the shooter was “retaining” the mag in their hand. It was a PE(kinda) until it wasn’t. As soon as the mag was used and was BEFORE the last shot. It’s all good…. Rule wise. Any way.
Ive heard so many different arguments on this. Even had a competitor tell me they were DQ'd for shooting with a mag in their hand for "unsafe" firearm handling. Unfortunately this, like many rules, leaves way too much room for interpretation.
@@BPShootingReloading I understand beginning a reload by pulling a mag while finishing shooting a target will do that. But holding onto a mag after picking it up from a table?
@@PaulGee I'm not Sure the exact circumstance, but it just shows the holes in the rules, where the same or similar action have drastically different repercussions. IE We can shoot an entire stage single handed, but shooting single handed while grabbing a mag is a DQ.
@ This is why I need your help to fix this…
@@PaulGee lets chat more about it
@@BPShootingReloading Absolutely.
Ask your area coordinator.
@@tylanc About?
Hey Paul, Grreat information, thanks for clarifying . A couple of friend received a PE on a sanctioned match for this. ;(
@@sirlukkes Apologies for not getting it out sooner.
Ha ha no problem, but next time I’ll can say “hey hey, remove this PE, Paul taught me that this is not correct” 😎🧐🤣
@ I get that a lot. Which comes with a phone call from HQ. 😂
Good information. Folks writing stages need to be aware of this. Since the association is defensive, I personally would not carry mags in my hand thru a course. I usually place them in my support side pocket and go.
@@Platoon_Guide Great point. So it maybe faster to just go, but shooter self penalizes himself with the awkward grip.
@@PaulGeeyep. The clock takes care of it Self correcting.
@ well said. Yes, time does not lie.
And another situation that I need to know!
@@williambarnette1049 It took me 4 conversations to finally understand this sorcery…
@ that’s why you’re the brains and I am the looks.
Hi Paul I really like these short rules oriented videos, they help clarify the rules. Given the scenario in this video, and say the competitor starts with 3 magagzines on the table, can they load 1, hold 1 and leave the 3rd behind with out penalty, or would they have to only start with 2 available on the table to avoid penalty?
I know that bug can start with 6 bullets but how about when in COF says chamber is empty do they start empty or load the chamber with bullet
@@mad9001 Great question! Bug is as pure as you get and like Revolver, 6 means only 6. So, empty it is….
@ thank you for quick response because I am reading the rule book and I see the following Shooters will start with 1 round in the chamber and 5 rounds in the magazine. And was wondering if they start with bullet in chamber all the time even if the COF say chamber is empty and got confused
@mad9001 Ah. I see what you’re saying., Per the stage description. Empty or loaded, only 6. So if the stage description calls for a loaded gun it’s 5 plus 1. If it’s empty, then 6 in the mags.
@ thank you for the assist :) it is much appreciated as idpa is new in Bulgaria and we are still learning
@ Awesome! Please keep up the good work and if you need anything please ask.
Nice shooting sir. I got quick question so the 2 barrels act as. Visions barrier and if you want you can shoot through them. Am I correct 😊also you need to reload before moving to that position
Great eyes! This was a strange one for sure. Black barrels were hard cover, thus allowing the reload. Otherwise, yes, I would have had to go totally empty. Nice job!
Got it 😊
Nice I am so happy that I found your channel as I am new SO and this will help me lot thank you
@@mad9001 Thank you so much for volunteering! Without you there would be no matches. Please consider being a Support member of this channel to get special access to SO Continued Education. Again, appreciate you for watching!
@@PaulGee how can I become support member
@ Go to home page or a SO training of your choosing and look for the join button. Press and begin your training.
Thank you for the video but I have question I see some people run the first mag with 10 or 15 bullets. But I did it at our club with only 5 bullets in each mag is that an issue or against the rule.
@@mad9001 Just having 5 in the mags is fine. I only suggest 10 or 15, to speed things along. But, just grabbing another mag works as well.
@@PaulGeethank you so much
Tell Gail and Dana that I said/sang: "Mike Shiroma!!!!" 😂😂😂😂
@@tracyk17 She finally got it. Thanks for watching…
@17:26 That revolver you're probably referring to is a Korth revolver. If you search for Kohler revolver you'll likely only find toys or water, kitchen, bath related items.
I’m sure it’s under water pistols but I’ll make sure he’s informed. Thank you for letting us know.
You can get them from nighthawk custom. Ironically they have the same slogan as Apple. you can buy better but you can't spend more at Korth
Paul, I have had this damn weapon for a yr. I still can’t tell if I like it or not. I’m bout to just sell it
@@maxwellsvader2573 Glock mags on a 2011 inspired frame? I’m just waiting for the purist to chime in…
@@PaulGee can you run a platypus in ID PA?
@ Depending on which model they’re definitely IDPA legal!
@ I have the long boy, thinking about trading it for the fusion XP pro
Thank you for this video. I just began competing in IDPA and am two matches in. I've been misclassifying my Oracle Arms 2311 as ESP, when I should have been noting it as Carry Optics. I love this gun and chose it over the Platypus, but will circle back around and order one as well.
@@dnut1987 Congrats on your two matches. Every great journey begins with your first steps. Welcome to the community!
@@PaulGee Thank you! Your videos have really helped me. I have a long way to go understanding strategies and even basic rules to maximize my effectiveness but will continue giving it my all.
Appreciate your support. Keep up the great work.
FYI SA offers a military discount =)
@@DaveGrawl Oh Tony knows this!
Their customer service is freaking awesome though too and love us mil guys. Btw still have that EO-Tech Paul!!!
My first one is a 4.5", bushing barrel, holosun 507k, 1.5 years old with over 9k rounds used in IDPA, USPSA, and other training events, just got a new one 5" bull barrel, holosun 507C 6 months ago, with about 3k rounds through it. No failures in either one. Love them looking forward to getting a two more platypus this year. on a side note, SA does have a platypus that takes 320 mags they just haven't released it. th-cam.com/video/OqkEuys2eWI/w-d-xo.html
@@DaveGrawl awesome thank you!
