  1. Reach out to Robin Taylor. He's made a brass backstrap for Canik. Might be open to do one for M&P.
  2. We would need a clever person to invent an affordable calibration device that can be used between squads to check each piece of steel. All knuckle tests are not the same.
  3. Jager (captured) with a 13# on one 34.4, uncaptured steel guide rod with 13# on another 34.4, works fine. Both ISMI springs
  4. From an email to Try yestarday Troy McManus 9:26 AM (6 hours ago) to me If you were to add weight to the "tunnel" in the grip of the Glock, it could not extend past the heel of the butt more than the rules allow a plug to extend, i.e., 0.1 inches. Adding the weight is not illegal, extending it too much is. Troy
  5. Probably the direction they want to go, but I heard only comparable models. I'd like Glock to offer me a trade for a Gen 5 on each Gen 4 I have, lol. Still like Gen 3 better.
  6. I've also found you could use the flat car tire weights that come in 1/4 or 1/2 oz increments and put them in the cavity. As long as they don't show or extend below the bottom of the cavity you're good ( according to Troy). I'm going to check out the thug plug and the Carver brass insert. Unfortunately neither of them work with a backstrap but such is life
  7. I hear you. I have two gen 4s and recently heard that Glock is phasing out every Gen 4 that has a comparable Gen 5 model
  8. Calibrated mine, 19.9995. Have not seen any drifting.
  9. Aren't any yet, communicated with Robin Taylor at Taylor Freelance and he is behind on R&D for Gen 4..
  10. Hmm, how old was your 250? Mine is easily 5 or 6 years old.
  11. I've had the pleasure of running him in 4 majors over the last few years, most recently the Battle of the North Coast. That young man can shoot as can several other members of that team.
  12. Actually, more people than you may think load to 140 PF. I have for years as my Glock's seem to run much better with that hotter load, and I don't feel any difference. YMMV. After all, as I believe Flexmoney said many years ago, 140 is still minor...

    SRO on a Gen 5 G34

    CHPWS on one CO Glock. MOS plate on another. I run both at matches, can't tell any difference.
  14. Still running boombahs from 3 years ago, just got another pair for spares. Soles are slightly harder than the speedcross in my opinion, last longer. As was said, wider. My speedcross shoes had a tight toe box, boombah hellcats don't. At $35 clearance, I can by 3-4 pairs for the price of speedcross.
  15. Vibra prime, 10 Dillon tubes, and I feed directly into them and bypass the FA tube.
  16. This. While I kept the usual spare parts in my range back, when I shot production, and even now shooting carry optics, I always bring a backup gun. Glocks are like potato chips, can't stop at one.
  17. Started production in 2000, shot it until CO came out due to eyes going south and I didn't want to futz with Open. I do miss the planning of the 10 rounds, found my reloading skills have declined as I do so few of them now. I see faster shooters, mostly the kids that come in blazing away like open shooters - more of the spray and pray mentality that we all get when we have more than 8-10 rounds, LOL! That being said, shooting on the move is now a solid part of my technique now that I have more rounds to play with. Open shooters I've seen take a bit to get it as the gun actually moves compared to their heavier open pistols. Looks like everyone and their brother has come to play in the division, more players, better competition. Heavier guns coming in - not sure how that plays out as I've stayed with Glock. Too much invested in the platform to change unless I were to win something different. Heavier guns may be a fad or it may be here for years and set a new tone. Who is to say. Larger mags, I've seen a host of different types, not sure if all are legal, but with the many different guns that are out there, what looks huge on a mag holster may be solid for whatever gun is being run, some of which I've not seen. Bottom line it has been good for the sport.
  18. These are nice, but the one I remember opened in a new tab linked to a large spreadsheet type that had beaucoup information. Wish my memory was better but I do appreciate these that you did find! Vince
  19. Likewise, even in the middle of a session where I randomly pull a case to verify.
  20. There was once a link in a thread for 147 grain bullets that someone had compiled that listed all (at that time)the different 147 types and their accompanying powder charges with a variety of powders. I have since lost that link and wonder if anyone else recalls it? Vince

    Keep plugging away.
  22. I find the field of view too crowded and busy with irons on my CO guns. Tried it just to see, didn't care for it.
