Has anyone tried the tungsten or stainless guide rods available from speed shooters specialties? Which one should I go with?
-
Has anyone relaced the striker with an aftermarket striker? Do you need an extended striker after you put in the Apex ultimate striker block?
-
Are you guys using a captured guide rod and recoil spring or are you replacing it with a non-captured recoil spring and guide rod?

What recoil spring weight should I use for my m&p pro 9mm? I have an Apex competition kit installed. I would like to hear your trials and errors instead of reinventing the wheel. Please be specific. What worked and what didn't and what were the specific pros and cons of each one. Help a brother out. Thanks!

Found the image in the rulebook... Not sure how I missed that one but I appreciate yáll helping me locate it. I would say under the triggerguard is definitely off limits, not that I would want to stipple there anyway. What I'm wondering is if you can stipple up to the slide release like it looks like you can on the glock outline. I just want to understand what the grip panels constitute on a polymer gun grip since it can't be undone. That way I can choose my own border within the acceptable outline. Thanks again for the info!

I'm wondering where this illustration came from and if its official per uspsa/ipsc. Although, it would be helpful for stippling one of these firearms, I'm rockin' an M&P Pro. I can't seem to find an image in the uspsa rule book that clearly defines the boundaries. For stippling purposes the boundaries are extremely important and they are different for the two firearms in the image. I have a couple M&P Pro's I am ready to stipple but I'm not sure where to make my boundaries. I understand the front and backstrap and grip panels but how far up can u go with the stippling. I'd appreciate any help trying to figure this out. For an official answer maybe I should just shoot an email to uspsa for clarification. Thanks, Morgan
Double feeds in rifle
in General Gunsmithing
Posted
So I had a 3-gun match last weekend and I had multiple double feeds in two stages. I know the magazines work in my other ar-15's so I am wondering what any other causes could be. I am runnning a DPMS 3g-1 with magpul mag's. I suspect the ammo I was using and a lack of lube were the contributing factors but I am wondering if there is anything inside the gun I should be looking at as well. Could there be a problem with any of the internals? I haven't had a chance to run it since but I want to check all the potential problems. Thanks for any input...
