Hi,
On page 26 I see screw F, which is called the Blank Travel.
What is blank travel?

Vin

wishful thinking...
I wanted my pistol to be a black box, something I didn't have to think about.
I guess that was wishful thinking.

Rob, After Coach Hart straight me out I was still too scared to adjust my sights at the match. So I changed my hold. Now I'm practicing "sighting in" at home. I have gotten quite a few emails about Coach Hart. Everyone recommends him highly. Wish I was a student MIT! But I am friends with ...
