One of the guys I shoot with bought the starter package and loved it. It’s a great setup to start while you are figuring out what you want to shoot, as far as what category you want to shoot in, and whether or not you need specific holsters for that category. I bought the high performance package from Mernickle last year and couldn’t be happier. After looking at my holsters my Pard has decided he needs some like mine now😂😂. I would recommend them to anyone. They were a huge upgrade from the set I started with. It literally made me faster overnight with my pistol transitions. Couldn’t ask for better people to do business with either. They do a lot for our game. Hard to go to a big match anywhere in my area where they are not a sponsor of some sort.

I think you nailed it with your thoughts on the starter set. And, I’m a big fan of my High Performance rig as well (obvious by the fact I bought a second one, right? 😆)

Thanks Darrell. I lot of folks are in the same situation as you; getting started is expensive. That’s one of the reasons I wanted to do this review to see if someone really could get started with just this set-up. And, I will be posting an opportunity to win that rig on KZfaq as well.

I watch it often before I go to a cowboy action shooting match On Maui with the Maui Marshall‘s.. I bought my AimCam shooting glasses because of your good bad and the ugly review. And I absolutely love them. Ever since then I’ve become good friends with Ben and Jamie from AimCam. I am going to enter your giveaway. Because I would love to win your starter kit for our new shooters that Live on Maui, Hawaii.and shoot CAS with our club. I run the raffle for our club. And even though I live in Paradise we have a lot of interest in the sport that we do. Here on Maui. Love your channel. Jedi Knight and your reviews. The good the bad and the ugly coming.

After many years of thinking about starting, I have finally joined SASS (couple of days ago). Now I am in the market for a rig - so your recent videos have been very timely for me. I was hoping you would detail more of the differences between the Starter Kit and the High Performance rig you had previously reviewed. Does not have the t-nut tightening system on the starter set make a big difference and what other big features would I be missing? I tried the code JediTV22 and it wasn't working - is this valid for only certain dates? Thanks for your videos, I am learning a lot.

@JEDiTV 2 жыл бұрын

That code should be working now. I didn’t do a comparison because I figured this was aimed more at someone that just wanted that basic set to get started. 🤷‍♂️ But, it does have the screws to tighten the holsters to the belt and keep them in place. It is not metal lined like the High Performance, nor is it cut down around the trigger guard (for those “fast” gun transfers)… If you still have trouble with that coupon code give ‘em a call in the office and they can process your order that way (I was told it’d be active by the 15th… but I haven’t heard any follow-up from ‘em). -Jed 🤠

@JEDiTV 2 жыл бұрын

It was a monthly match at RUCAS in Renton, WA. They were offering a different category that day (one that required a lot of on the clock reloads) and the stage writer also added in a bunch of extra shotgun. Not typical. But, a heck of a lot of fun!
