thanks for the comprehensive lists!

what caused your broken firing pins?

welcome! now dump the STI and get a real pistol... SVI Infinity is right here in your back yard! talk to Trace (poster above), he will be happy to guide you with your first SVI Infinity Sight Tracker... you will not regret it and never look back and thank us!

I wish my SV single stack Commander were chambered in 9x19mm rather than .45ACP Trace, can you make it to the Dallas Pistol Club some day this week if we don't get rained out?

my only suggestion based on watching that video of Katie dry firing would be for her to keep the pistol up longer, aiming at her target after pressing the trigger smoothly, and not be so quick to reset and reholster from what I could tell, she pressed the trigger and then immediately lowered her pistol to rack the slide with her support hand and then holster; you don't want that action to ingrain itself and translate to the range during actual live fire, where she should be watching the front sight rise and then settle back down into its natural POA

I just got that one as well

me too

nice!

nice!

what is 3 man 3 gun?

Next up, Ponsness/Warren Auto Drive.... or better yet, the rotary conversion by Craig Forcht (Forcht Firearms & Machine in Iowa)

Aglifter, were you ever able to diagnose and remedy this issue?

As a new owner of a ponsness warren for my 1050 I'm curious what parts you think need to be replaced to make it work reliably? I'd rather head off any potential problems at the pass so to speak... +1

how well has that been holding up for you these past 6 months?

my recommendation as well

yes, they should work with the 550B do you need/want one?

do you plan to make and sell any of these as well? Yes they are $15 plus $5.35 shipping PM sent darn, I should have just had you add one of these to my order for your case feed fix...

do you plan to make and sell any of these as well?

cool, thanks, I hope mine arrives in time for my planned loading session this weekend!

This is great advice, and is exactly how I've learned the ins and outs of my 1050. I bought it back in January and at first was a little intimidated and frustrated by things like the ratchet tab catching. I spilled powder all up in the shellplate, crushed cases from the case plunger, etc.. but once I got comfortable breaking the machine down cleaning and changing toolheads I got those "Aha!" moments about how it works and operation has become a dream. I was having case insertion problems initially (.308) and some adjustments fixed the problem for me. I tightened the shellplate locking nut and screwed in the indexing stop screw which is turned horizontally on the main body of the press underneath station 6, the empty check station. Also, at one point I had some powder in the ball+spring that indexes into the shellplate. When that didn't spring properly then the shellplate wouldn't index completely and cases would not get inserted into station 1. thanks for the tips
