  1. They go in a little easier if not compety loaded to capacity, down load the second mag a couple of rounds . At some point you will have to ask yourself if you want easy or fast. Also if a gun will lock back empty sooner or later it will lock back before its empty, I dont want mine to lock back, ever. Better stage planing is a key.------------Larry
  2. The point is not to run it empty, if you are going to have to reload do it before the gun is empty.--------------Larry
  3. Bling dont help, may not hurt. Guns that work without a doubt will make you a better shooter. Enough to think about in this game without thinking about whats hanging on your belt.------------Larry
  4. Nope issue in on Chrome as well. Started for me early in the week. As AR James stated clicking on the logo line gets me in, thanks to him for that work around.---------------Larry
  5. Saw this and started to reply, was scrolling down and discovered I already had, 13 years ago.-----------Larry White
  6. Are you sure you didnt have a few hi primers? What did the primers hits look like? Did you try the affected rounds again? Did they fire the second time? Clean the striker channel for sure, I doubt a spring problem. Good luck.-------------------Larry
  7. Get the spare parts kit. And remember, when you use a part out of it call Dillon for a replacement.---------------Larry
  8. Should work well for steel, may need to respring it for lite loads. They are pretty nice pistols.-----------Larry
  9. Look at the size of those feet!
  10. Rig a light. Then just look, every case, every time. Just look.---------------Larry
  11. As mentioned above the tip of the decap pin need to be reshaped. The Dillon dies have a spring on the decap pin assembly that aids in removing the spent primer, while you have the decap pin assembly out of the die check the spring.---------------Larry
  12. Use a common screw driver from a jewlers screw driver set and tap it into the screw, dosent take a lot, back the screw shank out.----------Larry
  13. If it was military make sure the primer pockets were worked
  14. The other side of the coin are shooters that shot for years and kind of drifted away. I shot for 20 or so years, have had a number of nice high end 2011 and 1911 open and limited guns that I sold when I lost interest in the game. The last year or so I wanted to shoot a match now and then, to reconnect with old friends as much as anything. A XDM 5.25 with a little trigger work and a little touch here and there serves the purpose very well.---------------Larry
  15. Springer and powder river precision have almost everthing you could need.----------------Larry
  16. Good point, but 95% with a open gun then doing it again with older eyes and a production gun are two different things. I,m mostly thinking of the time evolved. This person would be an accomplished shooter at any rate. But if he dropped down to a A the progression would take longer just because of the way the classifier system works. I just feel there is an advantage there. But hats off to a guy that can get 1 GM let alone 2 or more. I couldn't do it once let alone twice.---------------Larry
  17. I would think a guys 2nd GM would be easier at a older age simply because he started the 2d division as a Master. I think the age at the first one is more telling. We had this discussion at the shop some time ago , Benny Hill made GM at 48 and his thoughts were that 3 or 4 years later he would never have made it. And by the way, at 72, after a knee replacement, a 6 way by pass and the loss of his left eye there are still days he can turn up the wick and lite the bad ass fire.--------------Larry
  18. Not really, but after shooting 1911s for years I had a drawer full of springs, lots more choices.------------Larry
  19. I would bet that the extractor is the same as the xdm 40, Springer has them. I really don't see a problem here unless its deforming brass to the point that its not reloadable. I have a couple of guns that get that mark at the port. The brass is reloadable, I just shoot them.--------------Larry
  20. That goes into the slide( install from inside) where the guide rod sticks out. then the rod and spring go into the slide------------Larry
  21. Are you talking about the guide rod bushing? It goes in the slide at the front. XDM guide rod larger dia than the springer rod, the bushing reduces the size of the hole in the front end of the slide.-----------Larry
