For mags, I hear great things About the Wilson Combat mags.. personally, I like the model 500, which is the "Elite Tactical" with ETM base pad the 47D is also a super common one, but I find that the 47D, when loaded with 8 rounds, is really tight to load on a closed slide. the 'Elilte Tactical' has a more physically manageable base pad, and does not have the hard-to-seat quality that the 47D has. Others have suggested another brand, but I can't remember which. I think 10-round mags are out, since things need to fit in the box.

for pouches, I normally use some cheap amazon 'loglife tactical' pouches.. they've got ridges inside that work for single stack as well as for my double-stack mags. (bullets-out, not bullets-forward, if that matters to you)

I like bullets out, because it's narrower than bullets forward, so fitting six mags on a belt behind your hipbones makes it easier to reach the furthest back mag.

for holsters, I've made my own for my P80 and my Glock, but I'll probably just use the Safariland when I get around to shooting single stack (still need to machine the front dovetail for a fiber optic, and get rid of the staked-in GI sight.)

for other avenues of information: /r/competitionshooting is a good one, as well as the brian enos forums, etc...

Enjoy!

Buy these books and do the stuff inside of them. These are the only sources you will need, and if you put the time and effort in you will become a good shooter.

It would be best to read them in that order. They are all short and to the point.

You could also become a member at Practical Shooting Training Group, it is about $25/month and up, but there is great information there as well.

So I opted to go with a budget set-up and I must say, I've been pretty damn happy with it.

I got an Uncle Mike's Tactical Competition belt for $23.55, a Blade-Tech Tek Lok Classic OWB Holster for $57.49 and two 3pk's of mag holders for 23.99 (x's 2)... all from Amazon (links below).

The only thing I have reservations about is the belt, but ONLY because they didn't have any in size M, so I went with a L. It still works fine, there's just a lot of overlap.

Im looking at these atm, but I want the rear to be adjustable...maybe I'll just get Tritium front sight- theres plenty of light down-range, so I can see the silhouette of my black rear sights. There is little ceiling light, thats why the stock FO is worthless
