  1. I don't have that info but I will call Dawson tomorrow and see if I can get it. You can actually review your orders by logging into the Dawson web. Click on "My Account" and then "Completed"
  2. Yea it's a bit frustrating. I finally got the mag thing figured out. (Thanks to you guys) My issue deals with documentation and info. Tracking down what works with it and what don't is very time consuming at best. The crazy thing is that the gun shoots beautifully.

  4. Hey Hump, do you remember the p/n they gave you?
  5. Has anyone replaced the sights? I want to replace the sights on my 2011 9mm (51679). I have a couple of questions: 1. What is the cut for this gun? (Novak is what I heard) I want the sight picture/presentation to resemble my STIs I've been up on Dawson's and they have an adjustable sight for Para. (the cut is listed as LPA) They also have an adjustable listed for RIA 1911, however, it's slanted. 2. Should the replacement sights fit the Para or RAI 1911 (Dawson's lists both mfg) The fronts sights listed are for Para and RIA 1911. (They have different part numbers, however) Thank You
  6. FYI: Midway has the Mec-Gar P18 mags for $19.99 http://www.midwayusa.com/s?promotionid=1090531&cm_mmc=pe_weekly-_-specials-_-initial-_-20160322
  7. Think I'm going to go with option B for now. I am going to try to compile a list of items that works well with the RIA 2011 specifically the 51679That combo (option is the one working for me ..For now anyway Thank You for all of your help!!!!!
  8. Thanks for the info. I am looking into those basepads now. You can't go wrong with 8.00. I tried out on of my friend MBX's. Fit perfect. No issues at all. (...they suppose to fit like a glove. Like you said, they are +3x the price of a mec-gar)

  10. Argh!!!!! Which model RIA do you have? I'm starting to believe that these things are not created equal. I running (trying to run) the 9mm HC Tac model 51679. Did you do anything else to your gun? Okay after further research the P18/Dawson baseplate/Arredondo insert does work. The problem was the mag. that I was testing was bent at the lip. Fortunate for me that I bought 6 of these things with 6 baseplates (now you know why I was pissed) The combo works with the stock magwell. It does not run at all with the Taylor Freelance magwell. So while I'm glad the gun runs. I'm still in need of a combo that runs with the aftermarket magwell. I know for a fact that the MBX's work, however they are very expensive. Hell six mags will cost more than I paid for the gun. Assistance needed.
  11. Wow... Mine just don't work... Totally Pissed off now

  13. Okay guys... I am running the 9mm Ultra Tac (51679). After researching the forums and asking questions, I bought the P18 mags, the Dawson basepads for Para and the Arredondo inserts. The P18/basepads/Arredondo combo won't seat at all. The stock mag works like a champ mind you, the combo does not. So I tried putting the Taylor Magwell on. Guess what; the stock mag seats the combo does not. (Who knew) What did I miss guys. I've read and re-read that this combo works. What did I do wrong... H E L P ! ! ! !
  14. Anyone know of a shop that has the Pro Match Ultra HC -40S&W (51738) in stock...
  15. I have that with the ramped barrel. What I use are the Mecgar p18 magazines(same as OEM just different floorplates) with Dawson para extensions, but you also need the Arredondo insert at the bottom to keep the rounds from rolling over the follower. Using that with factory follower and spring, I get 21 rounds reloadable. If I use TTI spring and follower, I can get 22 reloadable, but you have to trim down the edge of the follower or your gun will lock open with one still in the mag. You have to trim a lot, so it gets unreliable that it will lock open when empty. I use the factory magwell, so I do not know how well/if this combo works with aftermarket ones. Thanks .. I did find this video last night if it helps anyone.https://youtu.be/PyrF1vxpHZI Thank You!!!
  16. Hi, What I'm asking is does that combo (P18/dawson) function with the Taylor Freelance magwell. I understand that the combo runs with the stock magwell. I like the look of that Taylor Freelance but didn't want to risk having to go through that mag game again. Thanks again.....
  17. Hi, Is anyone using the Taylor Freelance mag well with the Mec-Gar P18 mags and Dawson extentions. If so, how's it running for ya.
  18. If you don't think it is important to know the distance to targets then why are you sorry that you can,t practice those 450 yd. shots that you know you are going to be have to make at the FNH match? I think it was mid-way through "People should focus on shooting at a variety of different ranges and positions...." Ideally, people know their ballistics anywhere from 0-500 yards if they have the facility for that. If you do, knowing the actual ranges for the match is a moot point since you'll know all your bullet drops. If you don't have the facility for that, knowing the actual ranges is still a moot point because you can't practice them anyways. I know my handgun to 50y, slugs to 100y and rifle to 300y. Beyond that with the rifle and I have to rely on ballistic tables or on-the-fly corrections. Having said that, it doesn't mean I will make these shots in the match After huffing and puffing through a stage, trying to make even a 200y rifle shot can be tricky. I agree with your post but, now that Larry has mentioned 125 yd. slug targets, I would bet that the smart shooter would practice those shots before going to the match. Rifle, I don't care about distance. Because of the accuracy problems with slugs, I like at least a good guess on distance and size of the target. I have no idea where to hold on a 125 yd target with my shotgun. Now I can find out before the match. That is the purpose of my original question. Knowing is half the battle!!! Spoken like a true GI Joe fan
  19. Question: How much shooting will there be on Sunday (June 3). I'm looking for the number of stages...
