Just started loading 38 super comp and had this exact same problem. Glad it's not just me.

I have an Open pistol where I have recently noticed the compensator is rotating.
As you look down the muzzle end of the barrel it is rotating off counter-clockwise.
It is to the point where the muzzle brake it is rubbing on the recoil system and I can see the wear on the bottom of the comp as well. The gun is still functioning fine but I know its only a matter of time before this locks the gun up.
Is this a job for the gunsmith who built it? Or is this something that can be fixed on the bench at home?

Works out to 3.1 x 15.432 = 47.8 grains. I don’t think you could put that much in a 9mm case.
That DEFINITELY would've made major power factor. LOL!

"Classifications & Membership Status" page works now, but when you look up a name it gives the error:

FYI, the website is up but the "Classifications & Membership Status" page is not functioning properly.
Gives this error:
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'http://www.icore.org/includes/navbar.htm' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php56/pear') in /home/customer/www/icore.org/public_html/searchclass.php on line 53

Website still seems down today...

When the slide speed is too slow is what can cause this sometimes.
What powder are you using?
Also, have you tried a 7lb recoil spring?

Good luck ordering one.
They have been out of stock forever...

How does that work?
Nevermind. Figured it out. You use the top of it.

Can the version with the channel act as a demooner as well?

Love the CR Speed RHT Snake Skin Mag Release Button.

I've found that hollow point bullets have been much more accurate compared to round nose in every pistol platform I've tried them in (even PCC).
Doesn't anyone use hollow points in revolvers?
Wouldn't a 124gr HP be a great bullet (accuracy-wise) for a 929?

For once this happened at the perfect time when I needed powder.

I’ve shot an Ontelaunee match and it was great except for a few overzealous competitors.
You've got me curious... what did the overzealous competitor do?

This is shocking. No competitive shooting scene in Texas?

Just obtained a Stoeger M3000 with the MOA Lightning Lifter and it's awesome. Works great!
I see MOA closed down their facebook page. This might not bode well for future orders from them.
Glad I got one when I did.

I recently acquired a stroked Akai Middy with the tungsten sleeved barrel and PT evo grip in 9mm major.
Let me tell you the dot does not move compared to what I was used to shooting. It's amazing. Worth every penny in my opinion.
-
Also tried it in a Safariland 014 holster last night.
This one was worse than the CR Speed by far. Held on to it even more tightly.
Might have to invest in a new holster altogether and hope something like the Everglades gives a smooth draw.

Been using CR speed holster with SVI and STI polymer grips for years with no problems.
Upgraded to a Phoenix Trinity metal grip and the holster doesn't want to let go of this thing! Very hard draw.
Took all the shims out of the trigger guard adjustment (to the point where gun was flopping around) to no avail.
Is there any other adjusting I can do to fix this?
Measuring, the metal grip even has a thinner trigger guard than the polymer grip, so I don't know why the big difference in retention (maybe the metal trigger guard is more "square" compared to the polymer)?.
Polymer 2011 grips come out of the holster smooth as silk. Metal one comes out so hard it feels like the lock is on.

Do they still give out President's Medals?

Loved 3 gun.
It used to just be a niche sport.
Then 3 Gun got organized. The explosion was 3 Gun Nation TV. (How great was that seeing competitive shooting on TV every week?)
The show and the pro series made 3 Gun wildly popular and big matches were selling out in minutes.
NBC Sports covering 3 Gun really legitimized it. Advertisers were jumping on board. Then Newtown happened. NBC dropped it shortly thereafter.
The FNH match at Peacemaker folded (loved that match) as well as other big matches and it's been downhill ever since.
It's headed back to where it started, being a niche sport.
It would be interesting to see where 3 Gun would be today if Newtown never happened.

Had an STI DVC Open in 9 Maj (My first open gun) and it was a jam-o-matic. Nothing but problems. What a nightmare.
Then the comp cracked.
STI agreed to replace it with a new DVC-O. Still waiting for it...
Don’t have much confidence that the new gun will run right. Fingers crossed.

Your style jam has been the bane of my existence. Been dealing with it for years.
I installed an Aftec which made no difference. You're truly lucky yours fixed your problem.
Did you shorten the OAL of your cartridges down to 1.15" as well as install the Aftec? Thanks.

STI DVC Open jammed again (same FTF problem) and cost me yet another match this past weekend.
And now I have a new problem.
The compensator has cracked on the right side:
