Looks for Target

Looks for Target (4/11)

  1. Thanks for the input everyone. My first choice is a PT Evo grip since that is what i have on my other gun, but these seem to be very hard to come by now days. My 2nd choice is a SV grip and since they differentiate between SV and non-SV frames, I thought I'd pose the question as to what the differences are between the frames. I'm in Canada so choices are limited. Thanks again!

    PT Evo Grip

    Thank you. It's good to know that the Evo grips still show up every now and then. I have signed up for notifications.
  3. Hi all, Looking to order a new SV grip for a very old Infinity frame. I already emailed Infinity and confirmed that I will need to order the "Infinity frame" grip, so that is all good. My question though is what's the difference between the SV frame and the clone frames (e.g. STI, Cheely, etc.). Thanks!
  4. Is PT still making their Evo grip? Can’t find it on listed on their website anywhere and most places online have been sold out for many months now. Thanks!

    ZRT Guide Rod

    Appreciate the help! At least I know the cause. Will try your suggestion. Thanks again.

    ZRT Guide Rod

    Hi all, I just received a ZRT guide rod and 13# spring for my Q5 SF. Once installed, I noticed that it's really easy to bump the slide out of battery. There seems to be about 1/8" play from the slide in the full forward position moving backwards until I start to feel any spring tension. Is this normal? Thanks!
  7. I inherited 3k rounds of reloads. I figured if I can figure out what it is, and if some random sampling indicates good quality control, I’d shoot it. Otherwise, I’d start breaking down the rounds and give my flowerbeds some fertilizer.
  8. Maybe Maxam CSB1? Although, I don’t know if this powder ever made it into Canada.
  9. Hi everyone, any thoughts on what this powder might be? I’m thinking it may be Clays, but figured I’d ask here for opinions as well. The charge was 4.5grs under a 115gr Montana Gold. Thanks!
  10. That mount didn’t exist in 2020 when I made that comment.
  11. Per Dan Wesson’s Instagram account, the DWX is officially dead for now (at least from a promotion point of view).
  12. I run 2 A01LDs, both set up the same: 11lb mainspring, extended firing pin, reduced power firing pin spring and CZ Custom Ghost hammers. No issues in igniting CCI or Ginex primers - around 35k rounds in one gun and about 18k rounds in the other. If you keep the gun completely stock, you will have absolutely no problems in setting off any small pistol primer due to hardness. One thing with Ginex primers is to make sure you set them deep.
  13. Has anyone heard of these issues happening on the X5 Legions? We’ve seen 5 or 6 X5s with blown out grip modules around here, but these were all earlier gen guns.

    CZC A01LD issues

    I’ve changed the hammer out of both my A01LDs. The retaining pin is held in place by gravity and any suction created by grease on the pin. In order to get the retaining pin to drop out, you need to flip the frame upside down and place it against something solid (I use a block of oak). From there, I use light taps with a brass hammer against the butt of the frame. The key is to make sure that there is enough transfer of energy from the hammer to the pin. If you don’t put the frame against something solid, the energy from the hammer tap is absorbed by the material that the frame is resting against instead of being transferred to the retaining pin. Also, you don’t want to use heavy hammer blows because that will actually cause the retaining pin to stay in place rather start to move out. Hope this helps.
