Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Definitely not. Lots of options. I have a Double Alpha Race Master. You have to order it with the SP-01 block and then file it just a bit to make it lock on the trigger guard.
  2. I don't have a Shadow but I weighed my P-09 slide. Has factory night sights. Slide was 17.8oz/506 grams or 12.9oz/365 grams without the barrel and guide rod/recoil spring. Somebody else might be able to provide the weight for a Shadow slide.
  3. You mentioned the P-09, I think it'd make a better limited gun.
  4. I have only ever loaded with CCI primers and used a 13lb mainspring in my P-09 with the CGW extended firing pin and have not had any light strikes. But, I've only shot 100 or so of my loads since switching to that combo. Probably 400 or so factory with no problems.

    CGW Joe Tool

    One can change out hammer springs with no tools besides something to push out the retaining pin once the plug is depressed. I see no reason for a special tool. Takes maybe 30 seconds.
  6. Should. I think I was using 4.6 grains Titegroup with a coated 180 bullet loaded at 1.135".
  7. I have the CZC large magwell and CZC basepads. I had to do some filing on the basepads to get them to seat properly each time. I used Grams springs and followers. I can load them to 21 but I don't have the confidence that I'm going to seat them hard enough during a match as it takes quite a good whack when seating them loaded to 21 on a closed slide. I removed the waffling on mine and did it with a file to get it roughed in and then emery cloth on a hard rubber pad to smooth it out. Finished with finer grits of sandpaper until I was satisfied with it. I use the thin grips with grip tape on them and then grip tape on the front and back straps.
  8. Give David at CGW a call or email him. He's always been helpful and I'm sure he'll know how to resolve.
  9. I would contact the Cerakote applicator for details on how they want it stripped. When I sent off my Tactical Sport I stripped it all the way down, sights and everything. You shouldn't need to mask anything at all. They should media blast it and then if there's anything that shouldn't be coated mask it off.
  10. I've just used 180 grain FPs in mine. But, one 180 grain FP from one manufacturer may not feed as well as one from another. I'd certainly test some before buying a ton of bullets.
  11. Sure, mags are expensive at $43 each, but compared to $25 mags they're just $18 more. Times four mags that's $72 extra and that's not much considering the overall expense of shooting and practicing USPSA and how cheap the gun itself is. I shoot limited, but I might have to shoot some production just so I can run my P-09.
  12. I can't help with input on the other models, but P-07s only take P-07 mags.

    P-09 trigger ?

    It won't be like a tuned 1911 trigger, but you can get the triggers very nice. I used CGW parts in mine and did some polishing in the areas David suggests as well as reducing the tension of the trigger bar spring. I'm very pleased with it.
  14. The slide rubs the polymer frame on my P-07. No issues from it. I carry it very frequently. My P-09 does the same thing.

    Favorite Lube

    I'm on the fence about lubes. Was a CLP guy. Then started using FrogLube. Love it for the anti corrosion properties. I found that when I returned to a gun I hadn't shot in several months that the FrogLube was gummy. I'd do the heat and treat and then brush on a very small amount. Never had any failures with it. I've switched to Mobil1 recently for lube but still like to heat and treat with FrogLube and then wipe it all off to help prevent rust and corrosion.
