APL-G35

Yep check the extractor first. If you saw a model of where the ejector hits the rim you wouldn’t spend much effort trying to “adjust” it.

I wouldn’t attribute it all to cheap labor. There’s plenty of junk made in China and Mexico. But they are apparently doing things right. Be nice if they could import more.

Check out the Q thunderchicken

No. Just use a good quality spring and change it regularly.

I’d try a 16lb with that setup.

Will be nice to have another option for barrels

I’ve actually heard SPS tubes are pretty solid. I know a guy that had an SPS for testing. It was actually pretty impressive how well it ran and was fit up.

Check out Atlas videos on mag tuning.

I would adjustbthem to spec. Even though it runs I’d adjust it just to eliminate any variables in the future should you start having issues. I think if guns are built well they are less sensitive to mag issues.

Dryfire certainly helps. Also test out every extreme position of sight alignment at 10 yards and see where it hits. Depending on if you’ve changed sight widths it can be deceiving.

Their customer service is top notch.

What finish is on the barrel?

Going to be working on this soon. I foresee a Lot of the 4 aces drill soon.

Yep just checked and it says coming soon.

Atlas sells their version. The angled cut starts pretty high up on the FPS. They say this helps reduce recoil. I’ll probably try it on my next build.

If you grip from the front, does the slide flex enough when pinched to cause it to be hard to rack a round in? For unloaded starts.

I’d try the taran pads too, plus they are easier to take on and off for maintenance.

Haha this thread is fire. I agree with Ssanders224 about the natural talent being a hindrance. Not that I have a great natural talent but most things have come pretty easy to me. I’ve been shooting awhile semi serious. Maybe averaging 6k a year and not much practice. I was at 93.8% this year. It’s hard for me to stay motivated or push to get that extra bit because it seems M class is basically where I ran out of my “talent”. I could get there but to get to GM is much harder.

I agree with using the JEM stuff. That are got great and it’s a solid value.

I I ordered them through amazon

Welcome. We shoot uspsa in Yakima the last Sunday of every month. Usually march to October.

Go with black. It will look great

I did it earlier this year. Fastest run was a 2.27 I’m an M in limited. I think anything around 2.5 is a great run.

Towel and liquid chalk used for rock climbing. It lasts longer than other grip products I’ve tried.

Boombah shoes as well. Cheaper, wider if you need that, and have held up better than the solomans I had before.
