    I’d love to see a video breaking down your match day gear: gun, belt, mag carriers, holster, etc. Congrats on the fantastic performance!

      i second this... i saw in T-Rex that he shoots/carries the same gun, so, am guessing there are not light to no modifications on this Glock 17.

    Congrats bro… you are moving up the ladder! 13 points away from dethroning CS is incredible work man and with a Glock!!! I do miss the shadow 2 though

    I love how he's just using everyday gear (and a glock) instead of all the wiz-bang stuff that's supposed to make you faster... and he came in 7th. Great job man!

      Nothing makes you faster, but some stuff is easier to shoot a tad better. This is very impressive.

    Outstanding-I’ve been following you for a couple of years. Awesome to see your progress. I really like it when you’re having fun taking the fundamentals of daily carry at club matches and running appendix. I always shoot USPSA and other matches how I carry daily. G34/509t slight mods/Appendix Darkstar Holster/JM Mag Pouches. Much respect to you for most likely competing with the gun you carry! Rock On!

      oh man! Ive been going and started this year! Its so much fun and you learn a lot! Goin on July 7 and i try to go once a month now. You should start IDPA as i think USPSA is very complicated for a new shooter but some do it. I just prefer IDPA for now. Someday ill jump to USPSA though :)

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Місяць тому

      All you need is what you have for your first match. Have fun and be safe, and find the best guy at the club and squad with him to learn as much as you can.

    Seems like the steel poppers caused some issues. Why do you think that was and what will you train to correct that?

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Місяць тому

      Lack of respect for the proper sight picture needed and loosing of my grip to try to make a more accurate shot.
      I will most definitely be training poppers a ton.

    • @beardedred0032

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Місяць тому

      Yep. So finding a specific spot on the steel to look at and making sure my dot is stable enough for the difficulty of the shot .
