If you cant find a guy locally feel free to give us a call we will be happy to do it!

Are you dry firing with dummy ammo to absorb some of the firing pin movement forward and not bottoming out the firing pin stroke each time the hammer falls.

How long does a moon clips last ?
Do you guys loose a lot though out the season shooting a course of fire ?
Should last many years if you don't bend them.

686-7, We we have clips. Tom

TK Custom has them. They are not a internet catalog item. Please call 217-643-2002

Hello, everyone. TK did not copy HearthCo.
HearthCo designed them for TK.
No copying going on, just business.

Works Great. We have run one all 2015 without any issues. Cylinder has been rechambered to 9mm.
-
TK Statline clips are specifically cut to fiit the brass very snug. Therefore. Reloads will be more consistent and faster.

Buy Hearthco, don't waste your time or money on anything else.

Great to hear another solution.

Tom,
I have read some many problems about reloading for the 929, I finally made a post.
Good to hear from another forum member that understands that proper component's are the only way to go for a trouble free 929.

This is what works fine. ABSOLUTELY NO RANGE BRASS.
NEW brass W-W or Federal. (Starline has sticking issues and Remington requires a special clips, because of its’ diameter.)
Federal primers seated to PROPER depth and even a slight deformation, so you can see the primer punch mark real good.
Keep the 929 fired brass separate from all other brass. Reload the 929 fired brass without any issues.
.357 diameter bullets, lead or jacketed are best.
We have loaded and fired more than 10,000 rounds without any issues.
.358 lead will stretch the case, look bad and could prevent a loaded moonclip from dropping into the cylinder to fully seated position.All fired cases will have a flattened primer. In other straight walled cases this would mean high pressure.
Not in the 9mm, S&W 929, which is a tapered case and the cartridge sets back slightly and flattens the primer during firing, which is normalNothing to worry about.
Properly seated primer with slight deformation.
Good Reloading.

Yes, we have most moonclip checkers in stock.

It's your brass. Does factory ammo load in the clips & cylinder properly to full depth?
The brass is swelled @ the base.
This is very common problem with the 986 & 929.
You must feed it properly loaded brass.
STARLINE brass has a BIG problem with expansion and contraction of brass cases.
They do not recommend using 9mm brass in the 986 & 929 Tit. cylinders.
Starline is aware of the problem and working to correct it.

TK Custom does the work.
-
It's ALL about fitment of your brass to the clips to make the reloads..... FAST!

We can do it on our mill, with fixture in 10 minutes.

I was unhappy with the TK "Hearthco" clips. They are not true HearthCo clips. TK is cutting his own using a wide variety of specifications, pay a little royalty for using the name (im guessing). Confused myself. I have given him many hundred's of dollars for clips and accessory's. This last go around they were so loose they made the "Ranch look tight" When I brought this to his attention he sent me a handful more, mostly junk with a variety of different cuts. One clip would not accept 8 rounds, the 8th fell in and out. On another few, all of them fell out with a little shake. 3 others all wont take any brass. All sold as Herthco's for Starline brass. 3 had grinder marks on them as if someone took a sander to the clip. Very discouraged none the less. I gave up and went with my floppy Ranch Clips. At least I know what I was in for when it came time to reload. Loose but consistent.
I spoke with Dave Hearth last weekend at the SW regional. He looked at a few I had im my bag and said they were not his specifications, and I should return them to TK. So mad after spending several hundred dollars with him over the last decade I decided I was done and don't intend to do anything further with him. Dave said he should have some for sale at the IRC. Ill wait and get the genuine clips.
Apex Tactical sells Genuine Dave Hearth Clips. Dave is also on here from time to time. PM him and buy direct. Slower than TK but you get the good stuff that is right the first time.
Ty,
Just to set the record straight.
I wish you would have let me know of your problems with my clips and give me a chance to correct the issue,
For the record, I advertise & manufacture HearthCo clips because I have authorization to manufacture & market as such after Dave's inspection may years ago. Dave designs ALL my clips & are attributed to his design on ALL my S/S clips. I prefer to use S/S rather than Blue Steel.
Some clips have been changed over the years to address shooters" needs. Therefore, I have several .38 Super style clips.
Regards,
TK

They don't make one for 10mm/40
Yes, I have them @ TK Custom.

Clean your S/S TKC moonclips in CLR. Just let them soak overnight and rinse with water & let dry.
-
Yes, TK is cutting cylinders (again?). Tom told me so in an email just yesterday.
Any idea where I can get some .025 thick 686+ moonclips?
Yes, I am machining cylinders and manufacturing ALL Hearthco Moonclips myself. Usually in & out in a couple of days.
