@Boggus Deal can you PM me details on how to get one of your Firing Pins? Removing the retractor would be ideal. Totes

I broke the firing pin retractor and when it happened it broke the firing pin. New parts are on the way. I've never had to fit a new retractor and wanted to ask here for any advice when replacing it with a new firing pin. Thanks in advance. Totes

Regardless of how well tuned your 1911 is or how well you reload your ammo, knowing how to safely and quickly clear a jam is not something to be overlooked. Things happen and I've seen far too many newer shooters struggle with what to do when it happens. Going to slide lock, manually pulling mag from the mag well, clearing a FTF safely and indetifying what can't quickly be fixed should be learned/practiced. When things decide to go wrong, it can really eat up time fixing it. Totes

Thanks CC for the details. I am excited about the future of WB. I enjoy shooting it and hope it's got a long life ahead. Totes

... on life support. I hope the changes save it. Totes

Texas State Wild Bunch match started it last year when the rules change and we will continue you it this year. Hosted at Texas Riveria Pistoleros in George West, TX. Totes

It's going to take a little time. Many hate the precision pistol matches that WB turned into. Once they see the setup of the way WB will be ran at clubs, more will participate. I talked to many at Land Run this year that have never shot WB at LR before. They are already planning to shoot it next year. Time will tell. What I don't understand is how allowing .38 rifles and non-pump shotguns hurt the game. It has no impact on how purist WB shooters shoot the match, they can still use the .40+ rifles and model 12's. If they are worried about SxS shooters and .38 rifle shooters beating them, they have bigger issues they need to work on. Totes

Really? Any data to back that up? Maybe, just maybe it's that type of thinking that's drove people away from Wild Bunch. If Wild Bunch matches were written for those 99%, it would probably have the following/participation as Cowboy matches do today. Totes

The Texas State Wild Bunch match will be hosted by the Texas Riviera Pistoleros again this year. Club is in George West, Texas. Registrations will be open soon and details will be added to our website: trpistoleros.com and our Facebook group: Texas Riviera Pistoleros.
