    All factory ammo, he  doesn't reload.  115s mostly and round count would be under 3k.  I don't know what you mean when you say "disingenuous"....for my discount, I can buy an STI for less than an OZ9. 

    Just because someone can buy an STI for less, doesn't necessarily mean you should though.

    Sweet, Your word is gold on fit for that pistol LOL. I spoke with someone at DAA and they told me the same so i have it on order, good to know it will fit.

     

     

    I would personally run the muzzle support as well. The rounded trigger guard allows some play in terms of y axis angle. No risk of it falling, but disliked the grip angle being different on draw. Muzzle support makes it super solid.

    Bumping.

     

    Just bought a 9mm hc from the classifieds, need an insert for my alpha x, does anyone know which insert works?

    I used the normal metal frame 1911 insert with my race master. The front trigger guard is pretty spot on traditional 1911.

    Are the OEM profile true to the size and shape of the wood grips? I'm still searching for grips after moving to the Stock 2. Actually like the woodies but more traction would be nice. 

     

     

    Yep, they just have the aggressive bogie texture. They can also do the lightening cuts if worried about weight for CO.

  5. Less prone to break, better dot options, nice round window, most common optic mounting footprint. Someone might prefer the DPP which is a valid option.

     

    Removing the optic once a year to clean and rezero is my current plan. I generally can make it without a detail strip of the extractor in that 10k-12k range.

     

    I do use a small pin sized scraper to get build up off it and surrounding area after 2-3k.

    Thanks for the information! How is the reset difference? I feel that the stock xtreme trigger has a tiny bit too long reset. My SA has a crisp sub 2.2 lbs pull, but the DA is a different story with very noticeably stacking and a heavy pull. 

    I think that will be mostly related to the disconnector. The Cajun one I'm using isn't as short as the bolo, but I don't ride the reset in my shooting. 

  7. Ok, so Titan vs unica vs Stock

     

    Titan/Stock, both have similar DA feel. The trigger pressure is very consistent until the full hammer arc, then there is a little of the tanfoglio stacking. 

     

    Unica, the stacking is weird. It feels like it moved all the stacking to the first few millimeters of trigger movement. The half cock position is really high. Once you get passed the initial stacking the DA becomes extremely light. It reminds me of a compound bow cam, heavy up front, then it cams over and goes light.

     

    The single actions are very similar in terms of feel. If I had a trigger weight gauge I could measure them.

    Carl, is the fp pin in use after this cut? If so, can you post a photo of it to see how much they needed to cut off it?

    Ok, so the firing pin did need to be cut, also the depth of the hole for the spring deepened, since it was too shallow after removing material. Causing the spring to bind. I'm traveling, but will post some pictures ASAP.

  9. I have the Unica hammer and unica sear in my backup gun. Paired with the medium xtreme spring, medium xtreme firing pin spring and extreme firing pin block.

     

    It felt a little smoother in DA than the stock hammer. The single is slightly lighter, but the difference seems minor.

     

    I'm going to try fitting the Cajun Gun Works disconnector with the unica hammer. Hopefully that yields a better result.

    Serious question: Am I the only one bothered by the burrs in the front slide cuts? As a machinist, those stand out like a sore thumb to me, and I'd notice/feel them every time I used the gun. To me they indicate the person who did the work skipped the deburring step to save time, but deburring should always be part of the job. But maybe it's not noticeable to the rest of you guys? 

    I didn't notice anything myself, but if I look for it after you pointed it out I can see it. Doesn't bother me enough to clean-up.

    I ended up purchasing a stock 3 in 9mm. What should I do to get it production ready as cheaply as possible? 

    If you want cheap, this is what I did for my 2nd Stock III. It is my practice/backup gun mostly.

    -Xtreme Firing Pin

    -Xtreme Firing Pin Spring (Medium)

    -Xtreme Firing Pin Block

    -Xtreme Hammer Spring (Medium)

    -Dawson fiber front sight

    -Extra power extractor spring

    -Patriot Defense barrel reaming service (if you load longer OAL and current ammo won't plunk test)
