Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. Any recommendations on Lodging close to the match. First time to Rio Salado. Thanks so much.
  2. Any recommendations on general area or hotels that are close or within a reasonable distance to Area 2 match this March. Thanks so much.
  3. Can anyone tell me the diameter of the fiber optic insert on the front sight of my shadow target
  4. Just keep at it. It will come out. All the posts above are right on. I used a heavier mallet too, which helped.
  5. Just an update. After an excellent conversation with Stuart at CZC, I bought a set of diamond hones on Amazon to remove the needed material on the disconnector. I took it off the front and bottom leading edge of the disconnector just as he pointed out on his previous diagram. Everything functions perfectly and I shot a match with it yesterday. Thanks so much for everyones help. The information on this board in invaluable.
  6. Hey guys thanks so much, especially for the picture. It makes perfectly clear sense where you are saying to start removing a little material. In answering your question, the gun came from CZC and all the polishing was done there for the trigger work. I will take a look at it again tomorrow and try to post what I find from your last question.
  7. Yes I do, but the screw is flush on the rear of the trigger. I had that problem some time ago, so I backed it out and put blue loctite on it. It hasn't moved.
  8. Hey everyone. I recently installed the SRTS drop in disconnector from CZC on my SP-01 Shadow Custom. I am planning on calling Stuart with this question, but may as well put it up here and I may not have to bother him. Everything about putting in the part went great, but I am experiencing only one problem. I am at times unable to drop the hammer for my first DA shot, unless I manipulate the trigger a little. If I pull the trigger all the way back and manipulate the hammer with my thumb and index finger back and forth, I can feel the hammer not completely clearing the seer. If I load the gun, rack the slide and start with a single action pull, the gun functions fine and the trigger resets and I can shoot successive follow up shots. I'm assuming I need to work on the disconnector, but don't know where to start. I'm not a top notch gunsmith, but I'm sure with the right directions I will be able to fix this. Thanks so much in advance.
  9. Thanks much guys. Trigger is unbelievable after everything is back together. Highly recommended!
  10. Thx so much. I got it out. Just needed to hit it like a man. The tip of the disconnector taken out from the custom shop is polished. wondering if I will need to polish the new disconnector the same.
  11. Received the drop in disconnector (SRTS) for my Shadow Custom. I am not able to remove the pin holding the original disconnector to the hammer. I am using punches, but it won't budge! Any suggestions on removing the pin would be great before I end up ruining something. Should it come out from either side? Thanks for any help.
  12. You really need to chronograph your loads. If you don't have one, they have become very affordable and you don't have to spend a lot. Don't reload without being able to check your loads. Your problem seems to be mechanical, I don't think its your load. I run 4.0 of TG with a MG 124 JHP at 1.140' out of a shadow and get 128 PF.
  13. Hey Canuk. That is exactly what I want, but I have a 550. Do the holes on that metal catch line up with the small screw holes that hold the primer chute on the 550?
  14. I understand from previous posts that beveling the pin is a fix for keeping primers from sticking to it. I've never had that problem, but I'm willing to try this and see if it makes a difference.
