I usually average 10 rounds to figure my OAL. If you try and check everyone you just chase your tail.

I have six of them for various guns. The only downside I've found is that the red kydex they use seems to be a little soft. My Single Stack holster is red on the inside, and my pistol takes shavings of it every time I draw. It's a hell of a mess after a match. No problem with any other holster, and this is really just nit picking.
Same here. I have one that is red inside for my P320 and by the end of the match I have a red racing stripe on the top right edge of my slide. Doesn’t hurt the finish of the gun from what I’ve seen but it is strange looking. -
The best way is with a sight pusher such as the MGW Sight Pro. But that’s a lot of money to spend for one sight. You should be able to drive it off with a hammer and brass punch. If you need to, get a bigger hammer.

I paid the $899 back in August, but Sig was offering $200 credit in the Sig Store. I haven’t seen a better deal than that.
I did the same thing.

Ordered another case of their 9mm 125gr coated round nose bullets this morning.

Anyone else get really short life from the 12lb spring that comes with the legion?
After 2k rounds and with a clean gun it doesn't have enough force to go into battery all the time.
When shooting one handed it barely goes into battery.
I’m nearing 5000 on mine without any issues, clean or dirty running the 12 lb spring and an optic. I do have a new spring on hand should I have any malfunctions. -
Not sure about yours since you have an actual indicator on the M17. Most of us have been complaining about the Legion having an open hole in the top of the chamber where you could see a case in the chamber.
With my DPP equipped X-Compact Im not seeing the problem I had with the Legion. I believe the X-Compact has the same type of LCI as your M17.
Give Sig a call and see what they say.

Looks like the list of 2020 Sig guns has been released.

I’ve used both, prefer N320 in every way but price. I agree with promtcy comments above plus I think I get less smoke from N320 with coated bullets as well.
I have plenty of Sport Pistol and N320 to last me a while. Maybe there will be some other magical powder available when this runs out.
-
DPP now but may look at the R1P down the road if they prove to be reliable.

Might have something to with how many units that are in the wild. It is one of the most popular optics in action sports. I’m guessing not all of them fail at the same time so it may be years before all of them are replaced.
I lost the latch that held the battery door closed on one of my units. They repaired it free of charge and while in the shop they replaced the circuit board. I wasn’t having any issues with it but they changed it out while they had it. I have a second unit that has the newer board in it and it’s running fine with matches every weekend not counting practice.
I might look at the Romeo 1 Pro or SRO down the road once they get more popular and more time in the field to see how they hold up but as of right now I’m happy with my DPPs.
-
They are in stock at Shooters Connection when I checked yesterday.
-
The only people that are having issues with the LCI are those of us that shoot CO.
Sig has been replacing them whenever they receive a complaint even from those who have never put an optic or intend to put an optic on their pistol.
There was a comment about someone running a Romeo 1 Pro on the X5 Legion without issues.
So from Sig’s point of view they probably don’t see it as a problem that needs immediate attention.

Just ordered some from Todd (A+ Brass).

I saw a jump from 131 to 149 going from 4” pistol to 14.5 JP.
I run different loads between the two.

Might be worth a try but I have a boat load of N320 and just picked up 8 pounds of Sport Pistol to give it a try.
Very low ES and SD with Sport Pistol in my X5 Legion, haven’t tried it in my JP yet.
I will keep N350 in mind.

Running a JP GMR-13 with a short stroke SCS, using 125 gr. heads with VV N350 powder.
Played around with spring weights and tungsten vs steel buffer weights, and wound up with the standard spring and 5 steel weights. Seemed to have the best feel and least dot bounce.
As always, YMMV.
Same here with my GMR-15 124gr MG JHP and VV N320. -
Well if you have a spare RTS2 give it a try. I can’t help because I use the DPP on carry optics and have a spare if something happens to the primary.
-
I purchased 8 pounds of Sport Pistol because of all the great things I have read on here. Honestly I think N320 is better in every category besides ”price”. It meters well, is consistent, and has low SD but not sure it is cleaner, softer recoil, or less smokey than N320, but it is ”cheaper”.
One of the main reasons why I purchased it was from what I read it was great with coated bullets as far as not burning the coating off and thus being less smokey. Honestly I don’t see a difference in it from N320 but it is “cheaper”.
I will use the 8 pounds but not sure I will be replacing my N320 with it.
Just my opinion.

Yeah I called FedEx and they said they couldn’t pick it up at the house because it was considered a dangerous / hazardous package. I said really... Then I said if that is the case how can you deliver it back to my house? The FedEx person didn’t have an answer for that.
-
Yeah the standard email the CS rep sent with the return label said to send my mags in which didn’t make much sense so I sent an email back to the rep and he said they weren’t needed just send the gun without the optic.
I’m guessing if someone had feeding issues or other things not related to the LCI fogging the optic they would probably want your mags. The letter with the label looked pretty generic to return for repair.
-
CS told me I didn’t need to send mag when I asked about it just remove the optic.
Sig received my gun on a Monday morning and it was back in the mail to me that afternoon.
Sig will email you FedEx 2 day shipping label. The only downside for me, local FedEx shipping hub is 45 minutes away.
Storing reloaded ammo
in 9mm/38 Caliber

Never had an issue with mine in over 25 years of storing in the garage both loaded ammo and components. We have big temperature swings here too.
