Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. SwissPewPew can you share the link where you bought this spring?
  2. How not to agree with you? Unfortunately, the dilemma after spending a lot of money is to stay complaining without solving the problem or to act and make the press work well without jams (which would always piss you off a lot)? I chose the latter.
  3. Your trouble is in the arm that touch the press body and don't return in its original position, so the disk dont rotate. Look at the pics i cut a bit material on the body press just as need to get the arm move freely. Its the best solution. After this, that you may not like it but it is extremely functional and will solve the problem for you. The primer feeders will work like a Swiss watch made the necessary adjustments.
  4. I use LEE Udies for both decapping and primer primer. I reload in .40 and with the Apex10 I had no problems with excessive resistance in the movement.
  5. Correct analysis that I fully agree with. The Apex10 is an excellent press you have to 'understand' it well, but once set up it works like a Swiss watch. I also share the critical points highlighted by the powder measure. It costs a lot of money but it's not that functional. Personally I was considering getting the Hornady one which has the same drum system but they tell me it works better.
  6. With a too short hood the slide slam the barrel on the back of the hood (because the barrel moves ahead with a not correct closure). This is because the recoil spring pull ahead the slide. Plus there are other trouble because all the force push on the barrel and the barrel lugs apex works critacally, and the link barrel works under force due to the thrust foward of the slide on the barrel hood.
  7. Usually the STI side has a hood space of 1.315 as showend in the picture. The ideal fit is to get a barrel hood sligtly short that works tight. But...but if you have a barrel with hood length of 1.311 due to the use or because you cut too much material whats your opinion...is it too short and in that way its necessary to welder little material on the back of the hood to recover the right measure or this could be considerate as a tollerance? Anyway whats are the trouble that a gun can get from similar fit? Your opinion will be appreciate. Thanks ahead!!
  8. If you dont get answer from STI you could be weldering the crack with laser welder. It will works in this zone. However go to a gunsmith and make check the gun its seems like the hold open works badly.
  9. Your opinion seems to me really right! Im on the same thoughtline
  10. Thank you for the advice. I agree with you way!
  11. In fact, in twenty years I've shot I broken 4 frames and 3 slides ... I don't think the STI warranty service could be affected because the slides have been punctured
  12. Cut are rounded no apex corner...Im thinking that on the slide its necessary have absolutely NO HOLE and especially NO HOLE in that stress part.......
