M4 is the tread pitch on the frame, if the screws are to long you can just trim them with a file or grinding wheel
-
Trigger bar, firing pin and grips are pretty much the only parts that differ between both frame sizes
cheers

Depends on the system, most of mine like to be ran wet (but not overboard)
My 2 cents lol

Daa racers all the way

I considered both to setup my wifes pistol, went with a viper and dont regret it. Taking it off and on is no big deal for battery replacement and doesn't seem to loose zero after re-install. The viper is also shorter height then the venom bonus there (6 moa version)

N320 under 124gr plated hp here

Would love to here review also

Had a double-tap safety installed by them at the nationals we had last weekend, i can say its a great adition to my sti spartan
-
Availability is a bit sparce depending what im looking for, the trojans price went up to almost 2k in cad funds because of the currency exchange so it was a bit to much money for me, the other 4 were between 1050-1300$ so a bit more reasonable.
Yesturday tho a dealer i usually deal with found a sti spartan in 9mm that was hidden in inventory. Well for the price these went for and the features thats on them it was a no brainer so i bought it right away.
If they would not ove found it the springfield would've been my choice.
Now the task to get setup for classic, what mags have you guys been using lately (10rnd 9mm mags)?
Any specific ones u like more? (Mec-gar, dawson, tripp??)
For a magwell im gonna install the dawson classic legal magwell they make
-
between these 1911's what would you choose (pro & con details welcome)

I find classic division is setup perfectly the way it is...

Take my money indeed

Got my fns9 longslide (2013 production date) a few weeks ago, trigger out of the box was prob 6.5-7 lbs with a gritty break. Shot one match and a bit of practice in between and i noticed the trigger got a lot better on its own. Now it breaks at a nice crisp 5.5 lbs (prob 500 rounds thru it now)
They seem to need a break in period, im not touching the internals in this one to see how it turns out in a few thousand rounds
(Oh and gotta say, minus the factory sights, i luv these fn's)
-
I want both
-
A tap could fix the threads of they got damaged somehow, but im not sure of the thread size
-
Hmm, might be something going on in the frame, use a pipe cleaner (from a dollar store etc soaked in rubbing alcohol and pass it thru a few times to clean it good
Then u could see if the threads are damaged
-
Check for metal shards of debrie in the frame holes, clean them good
Check the threads on the screw to make sure there good, could be a bad screw maybe
-
If u have a large frame pistol u could try this load, it was for a v8 gold custom, if u have a newer v12 u might have to play with the powder charge a bit. Id start a bit lower then wrk your way up to proper power
8.4 gr. 4756 @ 1.240" oal with 124 gr plated

Out of my tanfo stock 3, I use 3.5gr of hp38 using plated 147gr at an oal of 1.115
Crimp at .378-.379
Gives me a solid 130-132 pf

I use a toothbrush dipped in clp and scrub away

U can prob order it from eric grauffel directly, I always do for most of my parts.
He ships pretty much around the world, im sure he ships to the states. Could send him a quick email to make sure
-
Sounds indeed like the hammer/sear might be worn. U could check the sear spring if its broken.
The factory parts (if its an older pistol) are a softer metal so if the surface hardening is worn it would cause this issue.
Best way to fix it so its safe would be a new hammer & sear. I would suggest the xtreme hammer from eric grauffel and a new tanfoglio sear (single action long sear, these are fully hardened, they are a gold'ish color)
-
With my large framed I loaded to 1.180-1.190 depending on the load I used (180gr fmj)
-
N320 was the best for my stock 3, hp38/231 close second then titegroup. All running about 130pf (880-910 fps)

FTP alpha 3 here (8 moa) ran mine on my production optic setup for a while then installed it on my open gun, have prob shy of 8 or 9k rounds with it and it’s still running strong. Great glass size and easy on battery’s (Costco Duracell seem pretty stable in it)
