    I’d love to see a video breaking down your match day gear: gun, belt, mag carriers, holster, etc. Congrats on the fantastic performance!

      i second this... i saw in T-Rex that he shoots/carries the same gun, so, am guessing there are not light to no modifications on this Glock 17.

    Watched on Practiscore all weekend. You were incredibly consistent, sitting among the best names in the game! You should be incredibly proud!

  • @alonsoarellanocarryoptics

    Congrats bro… you are moving up the ladder! 13 points away from dethroning CS is incredible work man and with a Glock!!! I do miss the shadow 2 though

    Just got done watching this and the T-Rex Havoc episode about you and your journey. Absolutely amazing man. Definitely motivating to listen to your story and you’re just getting started! Congrats on the Nats finish!

    As a now back to Glock co shooter (coming from boujee guns open and co) you gained a subscriber! I am pushing back to upgrading my skill over gear and you are a prime example! Well done and congratulations!

    Outstanding-I’ve been following you for a couple of years. Awesome to see your progress. I really like it when you’re having fun taking the fundamentals of daily carry at club matches and running appendix. I always shoot USPSA and other matches how I carry daily. G34/509t slight mods/Appendix Darkstar Holster/JM Mag Pouches. Much respect to you for most likely competing with the gun you carry! Rock On!

    I love how he's just using everyday gear (and a glock) instead of all the wiz-bang stuff that's supposed to make you faster... and he came in 7th. Great job man!

    • @brantleymerriam

      Thanks man! Skill > Gear

      Nothing makes you faster, but some stuff is easier to shoot a tad better. This is very impressive.

    • @asanti76
      @asanti76 Před 24 dny

      oh man! Ive been going and started this year! Its so much fun and you learn a lot! Goin on July 7 and i try to go once a month now. You should start IDPA as i think USPSA is very complicated for a new shooter but some do it. I just prefer IDPA for now. Someday ill jump to USPSA though :)

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Před 24 dny

      All you need is what you have for your first match. Have fun and be safe, and find the best guy at the club and squad with him to learn as much as you can.

    • @hotrod9073
      @hotrod9073 Před 24 dny

      @asanti76 Thank you I will do that.

    You guys gonna sell a cut down ragnorok? Maybe with a locking device like cam or lever? Amazing job by the way. I’m studying this for a while.

    7th overall with G17 you deserve more respect than top 6 , wow what a work you’ve done 🙌🏻👍🏻
    You’ve should of ask for the royalties from the Glock itself, they probably going to sell a lot this year because of you 😂👌🏻

    Good shooting man. What happened on stage 11? Did it have a time limit?

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Před 25 dny

      Thanks man. Yep, it was a fixed time stage, of 5.7 seconds.

  • @beardedred0032
    @beardedred0032 Před 25 dny

    Seems like the steel poppers caused some issues. Why do you think that was and what will you train to correct that?

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Před 24 dny

      Lack of respect for the proper sight picture needed and loosing of my grip to try to make a more accurate shot.
      I will most definitely be training poppers a ton.

    • @beardedred0032
      @beardedred0032 Před 24 dny

      @@brantleymerriam interesting, sight picture as in, you saw white vs a specific spot in the popper?

    • @brantleymerriam
      @brantleymerriam  Před 24 dny

      Yep. So finding a specific spot on the steel to look at and making sure my dot is stable enough for the difficulty of the shot .
