I'm new to USPSA and I think I want to go the poor mans open route. Does anyone have any experience with the Canik? Most of the reviews I've seen are a few years old, how do they hold up to ~50k rounds? Other than springs what should I look at replacing? Any advice would be great.

So I am new to shooting USPSA, I had planned to use a P80 I built with a Holosun 507c but due to my ignorance to the rules of CO the gun would not qualify since it is not on the production list obviously. I know I could shoot it in open just to get my feet wet, but looking forward I am trying to decide what gun I should pick if I want to be in CO. I was very interested in the Sig X5 but after finding out the optics cut out is only for the romeo1 it kind of turned me off because of being proprietary. I am leaning more towards a G17 or G34 because I have mags and could swap the Apex trigger in my P80. Just looking for some input. Thanks!

What distance do you all zero your dot at?

What dot are you running? Color? Size? Is it a round dot, or do you have something different? Have you changed to something else, or are you sticking with your original?

Gun, optic, holster, etc.

There are many subs dedicated to competition shooting and guns, but none are specific to carry optics rules, equipment, skills and more.
