I've had my Weber Tactical ratcheted Gamer gun belt for a couple of months now and have been pretty happy with it. I bought a 2nd belt for a revolver rig and I think both arrived within a week of ordering.

I bought a Sig 1911 45 ACP back in 2014 when they had a promotion to buy their 1911 and get a 2nd 22 caliber 1911 free. Both worked well. I just remember that the Sig Nitron 1911 didn't fit any of my 1911 holsters so I had to spend $70 for a new Comp-Tac holster. I think I sold them a couple of years later when I bought a 9mm 1911.

Can you post a picture? I've read that the Graphite Dry Lubes leave a black residue.

What's that bit? It looks like it's made of brass.

And if it's a jam, always clear the jam and finish the string to make sure the gun is good to go for the next string.

I did this process years ago. Bought a new cylinder & cylinder parts from S&W and sent them to TK to have the 2nd cylinder reamed to 9mm. Because I'm lazy I only use one 9mm load for all semi-autos, revo, and PCC. You don't need a 2nd cylinder ... you can send yours to TK, have it reamed, and shoot 9mm or 38/357. https://tkcustom.com/pages/9mm-rechambering

Correct ... I installed the Bad Lever because the Redi-Catch won't work with a dedicated PCC mag catch. Some Colt pattern PCCs will allow a Redi-Catch to be used. I used one for many years on my Colt style PCC. I run the Redi-Catch on all of my centerfire ARs.

Not a Shadow but here are some numbers using Sport Pistol with a Glock 17 and SNS coated 135g. OAL 1.13 - 1.14 3.2g Average PF = 125 High PF = 130 Low PF = 121 SD = 22 3.5g Average PF = 135 High PF = 137 Low PF = 133 SD = 10 3.8g Average PF = 142 High PF = 143 Low PF = 140 SD = 8

FYI - I run the Redi-Catch on my JP GMR-15 even though I was told that it wouldn't fit. I don't have a JP-5. I've attached a pic so you can see the spacing.

You might get more info here: https://www.amtguns.info/ Check Ebay. I see Automag parts listed there.

Interesting idea for $8.95: https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2024/01/31/shot-2024-zeta6-rolls-safesnap-dry-fire-training-discs/ Looks like it's only made for 5 & 6 shot snubbies.

Glock Hydraulic Guide Rod and Spring by Angstadt Arms: https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2024/02/01/glock-hydraulic-guide-rod-spring-angstadt/ Did anyone here see it at SHOT Show? I didn't go this year.

I've been using a Blade-Tech since 2011 for my Witness Limited.

So this happened 2 days before a level 2 match. Dillon did their usual excellent job of quickly shipping a new replacement part, but it sucks that it happened. Looks like a MIM part. Also, I had to use a sledgehammer to pound out the remaining stub from the bottom after soaking with Kroil overnight. Maybe I'll use some anti-seize on the replacement. Are broken Dillon operating handles a common occurrence?

You may want to review this video about P320 dead triggers from the Sig guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3vWyscrmCY

^^^ This. S&W sold one to me along with the 8 shot cylinder and all other cylinder parts. I do not have a FFL.

Uses CZ Scorpion Evo mags and a Kynshot hydraulic buffer. Supposed to price "around the $2,000 mark". https://danieldefense.com/pcc https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2024/01/25/shot-2024-daniel-defense-h9-dd-pcc/

That pic reminds me that mine is overdue for a cleaning. How long did it take with the Dremel engraver?

Permanent carbide grips (not skateboard tape)
Tampa-XD45 replied to 80seriesaddict's topic in 1911-style Pistols
I used JB Weld as the adhesive, and 60/90 grit silicon carbide in the smallest amount I could purchase on Ebay or Amazon. Wearing latex gloves, I also gently pushed the grit into the adhesive to make sure there were no high spots. Don't worry about a perfect application ... there's always tiny amounts you scrape or sand away after drying. -
Other forums blame the loaded chamber indicator (LCI) in the Prodigy barrel. They mention using this company to weld and blend the LCI to eliminate the hole completely. https://dscgunworks.com/products/weld-blend-loaded-chamber-indicator?pr_prod_strat=use_description&pr_rec_id=c0e02989e&pr_rec_pid=8039831470310&pr_ref_pid=7760508551398&pr_seq=uniform
