ISMI has flat wire springs, I believe they go down to 9lb, am waiting for a 10 and 12lb from them, factory is supposed to be 11lb

Cut the barrel back to 5", a whole new animal.

I can remember when I bought a 929, asked the revo shooters what it would take to get it ready for competition, no problem, easy enough to do. Well, the true story is nowhere close to that. Getting the trigger to a light pull and being able to set-off primers reliably is where I should have made the decision to move on. Then stopping the bullets from walking out of their cases was another venture. Sell, trade your 929 for a 627, your mental health will appreciate it. Oh, if you want to shoot 38 S/SC, you're in for another huge hurdle with a 929. Good luck

Run it and see how it works, I've seen a few different ways to mount optics whit success. If the screwa do break, drill them and then secure the optic with a couple of pins as barry mentioned above. Go shoot and have fun.

Maybe commonality of parts, thus reduced costs and more profit?

Guess I'll have to try calling S&W for a new cylinder, wish me luck.

Anyone know if there is a cylinder for a 929 that would chamber 38S/38SC ?

Which Armory Craft Magwell? Dah, just found it.

That's right, Single Stack, I'm L10.

check out the Tripp 10R-10MM-RG mags, have the polymer/metal followers.

That's all that I use, Tripp, but other good mags out there.

That's a good read, but nobody seems to be breaking or blowing out the glass.

I can only assume that's what is being suggested? I really don't want to run down the rabbit hole chasing a non-existing problem. The options are to change optics, expensive, with hopes the same dose not happen.

I'm leaning towards the pistol, this is the second optic? I checked all the mounting, plate, and sight, all torqued and lock tite. Tampa-XD45, what other sites could I go to to read more on this. I looked at the DSC Gunworks site, no mention as to the reasons or benefits to welding up the chamber indicator. Have other pistols, not 1911, that have the similar notch in the barrel, and no issues.

Almost had me
