I wanted to share something useful that I've done. I've been wanting to confirm my gun fit but have no real way other than a visit to the fitter. I decided to grab my tripod, cellphone and remote camera clicker (tripod/clicker, Amazon toys). I setup the cellphone with the tripod so that the camera lens was at eye level. I put the remote clicker under one of my toes and mounted the gun towards the cellphone camera lens while taking a picture by pressing my toe. I did this several times in a row and then went back through the photos to see how consistent I was. Well, I actually found that my fit was slightly off. I corrected it and went on to confirm the new settings. Now I'm more consistent in the mount and can confirm it by flipping through the last series of pictures...

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
