I think I will just save up and buy one of his full builds next season. I am guessing to get the full potential of his work retrofitting his slide to my frame may not be the way to go. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
I ended up dropping to a 9lb spring to get a reliable function but the pistol just feels odd now. It's almost like the slide is going in slow motion but not all the time. Might have to try the variable 9lb and see if it feels any better. If not I am going to remove the optic all together. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
I am going to order a 9, 10, and 11# in both conventional and variable and see which runs the best. Is there a way to know for sure if and when the rate is to low? I don't want to damage the pistol with a spring than is to low.
I recently added a slide mounted optic to my 9mm 1911 to use in NRA bullseye and I am noticing that the light loads I am using no longer work with the optic added. I am shooting 122gr bullets with 3.9gr of Titegroup. This load cycled the slide without a problem before but didnt always keep the slide locked back on the last round so I know the load is on the light side. With the optic now and the same load I get a stove pipe on just about every round. I know the stock recoil spring on the pistol is 12lb so the question is do i go to a lower 10 or 11lb spring or load the rounds with a higher powder load? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
I can pop mine out without a problem but I really wanted something that I could switch h back and forth without tools at the range. I am going to pit it up for sale but if it doesn't sell I may go the dedicated lower route if I can find one at a good price. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
So I picked up the target version for my 1911 but did not know that the conversion would not fit the 9mm 1911 because the ejector is wider and higher. I talked to AA and he said that since the conversion slide has its own ejector that I could remove the 9mm ejector. If I remove the ejector to use the conversion and put it back on when I want or use the 1911 as a 9mm would there be any problem doing that? Sent from my SM-T320 using Tapatalk
So I have been reloading for about 6 years on two Dillon machines and this morning I broke my first part ever. I think that is pretty good, let's just hope it's not a trend starting. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Yes the pistol is new. I am going to break it in and see if I need to change the recoil spring. I put another 100 rounds through it today and the slide locked back on each empty mag. There is probably nothing wrong with it but it just seems to not eject the brass as far as my smaller pistols.
