  1. I'm planning on buying a set of Henning competition mags. Will these allow me to load to spec?

    I'm also ordering a conversion for my 650 (from 9mm). I'm pretty excited!

    As I understand, you only need to load long with older style mags. With new K40 mags you can load up to spec.

    Tomorrow, Im actually gonna start loading some trial loads for my Match using small pistol primer, VV N320 powder and 180/200 gn Bayou bullets.

    Just finished fished converting calibers on my 650.

  2. Forgot to mention I am replacing the extractor. I'm thinking about using a Wilson Combat extractor. Will this work?

    So I'm a day away from purchasing my first Para. I'm super amped.

    Everyone I tell gives me crap and say "Buy an STI". The truth is, I don't want an STI. I want to pimp out a Para and run with and beat guys following the crowd with their STIs. I've heard a lot of talk about Para's not running but I'm set on doing this so it's on!

    Below are the list of components I'm planning on swapping out on the gun. What are your thoughts? What am I missing?

    • Doug Koenig 1911 HiCap Low Mass Hammer
    • Replace trigger parts and have trigger job
    • Remove 80's safety parts
    • Dawson Precision 1911 HiCap Barrel Bushing Match, Stainless Steel
    • Ed Brown 1911 HiCap Wide Ambi Thumb Safety, Stainless Steel
    • Gun Craft Standard Serrated Steel Mag Release with Extended Button, Stainless Steel
    • Dawson Precision Ice Magwell, Silver with Black insert, Flat Mainspring Housing
    • Dawson extended basepads
    • ISMI Mag Springs
    • All new internal springs

  4. C Class Production shooter wanting to get to A by the end of the year. B is the first step... come on B!

    I shoot in the SC Sectional the end of this month and in the Area 6 Championship next month. I really want to do well. Practicing all I can. We'll see how it goes!

  5. I reload 9mm on my 650. I have to say, I have quite a mix of dies on it! Station 1 I use a Redding carbide decapper/re-sizer, on station 4 I use a Lee seating die, and on stage 5 I use a Hornday taper crimp die. It's a long story but this combo personally works best for me.

  6. I'm buying the Glock 34 for USPSA production and I'm wondering if the barrel is fully supported. I'm not looking to run lead through the barrel but will be using Berry's plated ammo. I'm probably going to average 2500 rounds per moth through the gun. Do I need another barrel for plated bullets? Will the brass bulge with the stock Glock 34 barrel?
