What gun/mag combo holds a legal 25 + 1 in CO? Just curious.

PM sent.

Ideally in a lathe. But you can chuck it in a tap handle or drill. Put the barrel/comp in a vice, oil the reamer, the long end is the pilot and goes in the barrel. Turn slowly with the tap handle or drill. The cutters on the short end will cut the baffles in the comp to align with the barrel. Stop turning as soon as it cuts through the last baffle. Cutting/tap fluid on the cutters helps, but you can cut it without it. You can also talk to EGW before you order.

John- Pretty simple with an EGW reamer unless you have an SVI or Nowlin barrel (they have a smaller inside diameter). 9mm/38 Alignment Reamer (egwguns.com)

Chris Tilley christilley.com Plenty of USPSA shooters at Sir Walter Gun Club near you. USPSA match is the 1st Saturday of the month. One of the largest matches in the section. SWGC on practiscore.

Ordered a case of 147s on 7 September, received them today. Shipped quickly, USPS dawdled with them for weeks.

I just black magic marker the fiber optic instead of removing it.

Me too! So I jumped on it.

Thanks all. Finally found one, JGS had one on the shelf.

Great thought zzt. I called, but Dave said the TiCN coated reamers won't cut the CZ barrel.

Thanks Memphis. Yeah, they're some tough stuff. I did message 1911luvr on Saturday, but haven't heard anything yet.

Thanks for the suggestions aandabooks, but it has to be a carbide reamer. High speed steel (HSS) reamers won't cut nitride coated barrels. Brownells and Midway only sell HSS (high speed steel) reamers. Same (HSS) for the rental companies. I've bought many reamers from PTG, and know exactly what you're talking about time wise and lack of communication. That's why I thought I'd ask here if any one knew of a source for a carbide reamer other than PTG. To their credit, all the PTG reamers I've bought have been excellent.

As the title says looking for a source for a 9mm carbide throating or finish reamer. Only one I've found so far is PTG (8-12 wks). Got a new Shadow 2 with a really short throat. Don't like having to load 147s so deep to work in the short throat. The barrel is nitrided and my HSS reamer won't cut it. I'm not interested in sending the barrel out to be reamed, would rather buy a reamer. Any suggestions would be appreciated. TIA.

There are several on Gun Broker. Just ordered one.

For classifiers, just get a couple of 24 rd mags.

Agree with Jcgatus. Triggertech Diamond is the closest to a 1911. Minimal take-up, and reset is extremely short, but a little light. Google a review on youtube.

What egd5 said. I'd also add a TF Fattie magwell, MIAD grip, and titanium comp. I prefer the minimalist stock over the Magpuls.

+1 Love mine (GMR 15). Tell them you are a competitive shooter for 20% off.

"But i tell you... after 5000 rounds or a little bit more you have to change these o-rubber rings.... " Not my experience. Over 10,000 rds and the O-rings look fine.

Taylor Freelance Fattie. Way better attachment than Techwell.

Actually 8 spring weights (5 pack AR15 + 3 pack AR10). I like the green or black spring from the AR15 5 pack.

^^^^ This.
