That is a great looking blaster.

http://uspsa.org/document_library/2014%20USPSA%20Annual%20Report.pdf Big help! Thank you.

I am sure this got covered, but you need the gen 2 mags. On the back of the mag, near the base plate on the spine, you will see a 2 indictating a second gen mag. Do not confuse this with the pistol generation. I don't have a pic handy, but I had the same issue on my duty gun till I got new mags.

Does anyone know where to find the current break down on # of shooters per a class per a division?

Well, I just had a terrible match, but some how managed to ACE the classifier with a GM score. Looks like I will bump up. Thanks for doing this thread.

I pulled some Trijicon HDs I liked a lot off another gun and put them on my G43. That being said, if I were buying sights, I would get a Dawson Night sight front and a plain blk rear sight.

I got the Dawsons. It took a lot of monkeying around and shipping back and forth to get a set of 8 that functioned 100% though. Springfield RO - 9mm - 17lb mainspring - 8lb recoil spring and matching firing pin spring from Ben Stoeger Pro Shop - STI Ambi Safety - Dawson 180x100 FO front sight - S&A Flat Magwell - Grips are off a friend's Sig 1911 ( just a pebble textured polymer) Weighs in at 42.7oz On the list to order: - SV Flat Long Trigger/base - Dawson Trigger Group 300109A (EGW) - Wilson Combat Extended mag release button (blued with the silver button) I will play around with the weight though. Right now, it shoot damn well and fast with 124s doing 125pf.

I really like mine. Still getting a custom built, but this is keeping me good while I wait. Really enjoying shooting. I swapped out the recoil spring to an 8lb. Dont remember the mainspring or firing pin spring though. Put in an ambi STI safety (wasn't too hard to do, but it did take me forever since it was my first time). Weight is 42.7oz

Very cool. Thanks for the update. Very excited for a 9mm version to come out that's Gen 4-3 ready

The dealer I work for orders direct from STI. I've never heard of STI taking a deposit on orders. This, seems odd not just ordering from one of the big guys and using your friend as the FFL to ship to. Dawson would be who I would go through.

Hi Robin, Any word on some 9mm versions yet?

Are there enough slots left I could get 4-5 guys on the same squad still? Sorry, I got behind on registering trying to run my own match... :/

Well damnit, I want one now. A friend just got his Limited in and let me borrow his belt, gun and mags to do a few runs on El Prez at the last match. Talk about a sweet shooting pistol. I was amazed at how easy it was to track the front sight. Now I am rethinking having a sight tracker built. Only went low 6s on the few runs I took, but considering the holster wasn't set for me and I had never used the belt, pistol, etc, I was really impressed with the gun. I have owned some nice 2011s too. Currently shooting Prod, but man do I miss Limited. Don't get me wrong, I love Prod, but man those are some nice pistols.

Interesting. I figured those might just be snake oil. I'll have to keep this in mind if I have issues. I currently have my glock 17 running a 100% with new springs, connectors and the replacement Gen 3 parts for the recoil system. Next I am going to start trying it out with the g34 barrel to make sure it still running and hopefully Robin will have some sight blocks for the 9mms for me to pick up soon.

When I spoke with Robin, he advised that the reason for the different thread pitches on the barrels was so that someone wouldn't put a comp or suppressor for a 9mm on a 40 barrel.

Thank you!! Stupid flooding is ruining me getting to shoot local matches....

Hi, I am sure Robin will swing into the thread, but I just thought I'd let all the guys looking to do a 9mm know I spoke with him last week via email about this. He stated that he would look at making some in his next production run. Obviously making just 1 or 2 would be rather tedious. It am sure it would be helpful if anyone is interested in having one made for the 1/2x28 to chime in and give Robin an idea of what his initial demand might look like.

Is the connector in the 43 the same size as the full size models?

Que the Archer Meme - "Stop I can only get so erect!" That is amazing. Can you spec out the gun please? Obviously SJC weight, TF Sight Block... What recoil system are you running?

If anyone is interested in a sight block for 9mm barrels from LWD 1/2x28 threading, be sure to let Robin know. I might know a guy waiting for him to make a production run of some.

Dawson sights came in. Went ahead and put them on the pistol since I worked the trigger over and the recoil assembly. Figure while I get the barrel snafu sorted out and wait for the sight block Robin is working on for me (9mm may need a lighter block with more material removed), I will get out and test the pistol more to make sure its still 100%. These are all the same things I have done to my Production pistols and they are perfect, but I figured it'd be who of me to test the pistol now more before adding further variables. So far I have 200 rounds through the pistol after the homesmithing with no issues. Very impressed with Robin btw, super pleasant and easy to deal with. This is going to be a real experiment, but I think it's going to be a fun ride. I am going to try to get the first blog or two out this week, I will post links.

Just a heads up, if anyone else is doing a G17 like I am, you need a KKM barrel with 9/16 x 24m which is a special order. I mistakenly order a threaded g34 barrel from LWD, thinking it would work, but their thread pitch will not work with the TF Sight Block. Sights are in, Robin is been super helpful in getting me squared away on the sight block. I should have that in hand soon. I am going to call Lone Wolf tomorrow to see if they will take this barrel back and calling up KKM to order a barrel with the right threading.

All parts ordered.... Entire week off next week to build and test! WOOO !!! Blog series should be out by the end of next week I hope.

FWIW I'm running a 10-8 Performance sight set with a 0.215" front, and it's hitting POA/POI. Awesome, thank you!

Robin, any suggestion on what height Dawson FO Front sight to use with this set up assuming a fully adjustable rear is being used?
