Hey Nils I'm wondering if you working with Canik know of a good guide rod & Spring option for the Rival-S? I know that the Rival-S has a different barrel than the original Rival. I can't find any literature on this thank you for your time.
@@NilsJonasson You're a great guy. We had a photo taken at the NRA convention in Houston, TX. Also, Adam Ruonala gave me a MeCanik optic for my SFx Rival Darkside 😎
I enjoyed most watching him miss that steel popper 3 times and needing to reload to finally drop it. It’s like he was a normal flawed human being for a few. 😅
🤣😂🤣 the irony , so satisfying seeing Nils and his new gun on the block canik just kicking ass , and it’s a 800 dollar gun give or take a few dollars, and his competitors have much more expensive guns,
Whatever you need to do to hit the targets at the end of the day. I mostly shoot two eyes open especially when running a dot. With irons I might squint my left eye a little depending on the targets.
Obviously a world class shooter but efficiency in footwork utilizing the advantage of having a longer stride by minimizing the number of steps and wasted movement seems to be something he does better than others. In the first stage, he took eight steps from the first set of targets to the second. By contrast, Phil Strader in the Sig Sauer shirt took 18. NJ covered more ground in one step than PS did in his first four steps. Can tell Nils Jonasson is more athletic, and probably played other competitive sports growing up. If I had to guess, I’d say tennis. He may even have faster splits but thats also because he has better footwork. They are tied together. Just like the most accurate quarterbacks tend to have the best footwork. I love seeing a shooter with a $650 pistol dominate.
Also on the next to last stage or set of targets, NJ and PS shot the targets in different order. NJ was already facing the next set of targets going straight then right whereas PS went right, straight, right again. Wasted movement is wasted time. It’s not just the gun and shooting time. Also, just like throwing a football, where your lead toe is pointing is where the ball is gonna go. Pivoting allows the shooter to have a steadier base/platform to shoot from vs short choppy steps, which disrupts the shooter’s base/platform. I’m well aware this isn’t easy and I’m only critiquing things unrelated to shooting because i know i would have better footwork. Compared to the average person, I’m a good shot with a pistol. Compared to any of these guys, I wouldn’t stand a chance.
Always amazing shooting. Congrats Sir.
Thank you very much.
Seemed like a great time with some very good people. Congrats on the W!
Agreed.
Thank you.
Congratulations Champ! Still on 🔥

Awesome! Aloha from Hawaii's 2A community 🤙🏾

PHILL’s commentary was classic. And then add JJ’s quick bits in made this great
Phil is hilarious.
One gun, three division champions, amazing👍
❤️
You should definitely have Phil do all the videos.
Phil is awesome.
Amazing shooting
Thanks!
🔥🔥🔥
😊
Congratulations champ!
Thank you.
I wonder why he doesnt use the magwell is it not allowed in this competition or does he feel it gets in the way somehow ?
Not allowed in Production division.

I’m still running the factory spring and follower but if you’re looking to change it out. W74 is a solid option for it.
Congrats Nils! You the man! Are using the steel Rival?
Yes I’m running the new steel frame now. This was several months before Canik released the Rival-S so this was the SFX Rival.
*Canik rules! Nils Jonnason leads the way!*
Haha!! Thank you.
@@NilsJonasson You're a great guy. We had a photo taken at the NRA convention in Houston, TX. Also, Adam Ruonala gave me a MeCanik optic for my SFx Rival Darkside 😎
Absolutely amazing. Maybe you could make me half as good as you are. Do you train?
I enjoyed most watching him miss that steel popper 3 times and needing to reload to finally drop it.
It’s like he was a normal flawed human being for a few. 😅
Felt like a total boss hitting that extra reload 🤣
For someone who is wanting to get into the sport, would you recommend the rival or the Mete Pro SFT or Pro Sfx?
Probably the Rival. You have more optics options going that way.
Great work Nils! What type of shorts are you wearing? I have a similar body type.
Can’t say I’ve ever been asked that question. They are 5.11’s
@@NilsJonasson lol thank you!
💯
👍
couldnt finish the video ...dizzy as hell ...gotta keep a camera straight for videos
Sorry, my camera man called in sick so Phil stepped in as videographer and commentator.
Don’t worry, he didn’t quit his day job😂
8:00
tsk tsk tsk tsk.
?
Is this pre Canik Rival -S? And do you believe you will run the S or the polymer
Time will tell, but the S definitely soaks up a lot of the recoil for you.
@@NilsJonasson my problem is I can't quite get the Rival-S to index In my hand quite like the polymer
Nice shooting.
Thank you
🤣😂🤣 the irony , so satisfying seeing Nils and his new gun on the block canik just kicking ass , and it’s a 800 dollar gun give or take a few dollars, and his competitors have much more expensive guns,
I don’t know what’s more fire here, your performance or Phil’s commentary. I call it a draw. Maybe next year Nils. 😝
Phil is awesome.
@@NilsJonasson I concur!
Do most pros shoot one eye or two eyes open?
Whatever you need to do to hit the targets at the end of the day.
I mostly shoot two eyes open especially when running a dot. With irons I might squint my left eye a little depending on the targets.
Great shooting by all, what gun is Phil shooting
Not sure what model he’s running.

You make it all look so easy lol 😂
Thanks
Polymer
Poly or steel Rival?
This was last year before I switched to the steel frame, so polymer.
Also on the next to last stage or set of targets, NJ and PS shot the targets in different order. NJ was already facing the next set of targets going straight then right whereas PS went right, straight, right again. Wasted movement is wasted time. It’s not just the gun and shooting time.
