  1. I have before, yes. I have two Springfield P9's, and have taken the comp off (and put back on) both of them.
  2. The comp is affixed with an allen screw.
  3. I believe so. KneelingAtlas is the authority on those pistols, he will know for sure...and it's a slide racker...
  4. Merrell's are pretty good. I have 2 pair of them now, and have worn out a 3rd pair.
  5. Or maybe English is not their first language? This forum is open to all, no matter what language they speak. As for being a post count bumper or spammer, the moderator group will be the judge of that.
  6. There is nothing against forum rules in replying to threads, no matter how old they are. This is an information forum, and as such, if someone has information they wish to share, even in a 5 year old thread, they are welcome to share that information.
  7. Agree. The 41 is a fantastic Bullseye gun.
  8. Congrats! I think I shot my first (real) match at 42!
  9. When I had to buy ammo for my Shadow 1, I went with Federal American Eagle 147

    Hi

    James, you make it through the hurricanes last year without too much damage?
  11. Exactly what you stated. With a Federal primer, it may look completely flattened on a normal load, while with a Winchester or CCI, it may not. You don't want primer blow through, as that tiny piece of metal can get stuck in the firing pin channel, and then you have a dead gun in the middle of a stage.
  12. And, you may want to use small rifle primers instead of small pistol primers.
  13. While I don't have a ton of experience with STI mags, the (2) 170's, (1) 140, and (2) 126's I own have all worked flawless right out of the package (for 38 super).
  14. Sounds like it. 55k of pretty fast 38SC major would probably do that.
  15. Do you want to buy something from, or sell something to, a member who has absolutely no vetting at all? A member who has nothing to lose, but everything to gain (if they are a scammer)?
  16. A simpler solution would be to just do away with the classifieds entirely, then there is no reason for them to try and get to 50.
  17. Check the extractor groove in the two cases that failed. I had a similar issue years back with some 38Super cases. They plunked fined, OAL was good, everything looked good, but they would not feed...couldn't force them in. The extractor groove on the case was the culprit. It wasn't cut quite as deep on that brass as it was on all the other brass. Next thing to check is to see if there is gunk in the extractor tunnel. That may have kept the round from sliding up the breach face completely.
