Descartian

So funny story. I I looked at the most recent Total Eclipse in 40 I bought and the slide is marked just Eclipse like yours.

I shot freedom for many thousand rounds as they had a retail location here in Houston. Most of what I shot were remand. I stopped because they never or intermittently resized their brass. I was getting “glock bulged” brass that would not fully chamber in my 2011’s. I shoot Winchester White Box for most things now.

I was able to call the shop and talk to his office manager. I’ve also had lengthy conversations with him via Instagram messenger. I know he’s on social media a lot in the evenings.

The wife and I love to travel. We (in non covid times) go out of country 2-4 times a year and we take a couple in country trips, maybe 1-4 depending on the year. We vastly prefer to travel international, it’s great to be submerged in different cultures and environments. It’s also great to see some of the wonders of the world.

They pop up from time to time on this forum, 1911addicts and gunbroker. Gunbroker prices are crazy these days though. They are good guns and doughy out be single stack competitors.

I’m kind of the outlier here but I listen to a lot of Techno. Been listening to a lot of mixes from artists on the Dirty Bird label, specifically Ardalan and Sacha Robati right now.

Welcome aboard.

I have a new MPX-PCC. I have 5 mags, 4 of them with the Taran +10 extensions. They’ve all worked great no matter what round I’ve put through them. I’ve read the gun likes heavier and faster rounds but it’s run great with the 1000 or so I’ve put through it in 115gr. No malfunction as of yet.

Looking for a carry build with a 3.5”-ish barrel with integral 1 port compensator. 113mm infinity grip, etc.

It can probably be laser welded fairly easily.

I’m glad to hear you still have all of your fingers any eyes after that. I’m pretty sure I’d $h!t my pants if that blew up in my hands.

On an officers sized Gun? The comp will be longer than the barrel.

I’m not a smith but I would assume if it’s a bit long you could trim the cone down and laser weld it to the barrel. Then recontour if necessary.

Low coefficient of friction and rust resistance. Remember Stainless can rust too.

I’m not going to lie. My carry build after talking to a SVI gunsmith was over $8k which I was fine with. Now after reading this thread I most likely will go with another maker for less cash. Money isn’t an object, it’s the support that comes with it that matters to me. That’s why I’ve been such a big proponent of STI and their lifetime warranty. I want the work of art that the SVI is but if there’s nothing to back it up I’m out. Atlas or another host of smiths will be able to help me.
