Tampa-XD45

The Pointman Nine to be more specific - 9mm. There is also a Pointman 45 but there's no reason to use 45 caliber for SC unless that's your only 1911. It's just a very solid well made 9mm 1911. It has every feature I wanted in a 9mm 1911 without the custom gun price. These days you have lots of good choices for a 9mm 1911.

Don't know if you've had a chance to browse the 10mm sub forum: https://forums.brianenos.com/forum/73-10mm40-caliber/

The blue tabs make it easier to remove the brass locator pins.

I'm not sure you want to trust your eyeballs with them. I found this info when viewing Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses Warranty & Safety information:

You don't have a traditional AR9 ejector to remove ... Wilson Combat uses a spring loaded ejector in the bolt face just like a 223/556 bolt.

The cleaning time will depend on the level of brass dirtiness. I run my Frankford wet tumbler for 3 hours with range pickup brass that has been sitting in mud/rain/dirt etc. For my revolver brass in moon clips that never hits the ground ... 15 minutes would suffice. BTW, just noticed that the Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series Rotary Case Tumbler is on sale for $139 @ Midway which is a great deal with free shipping. LINK

No problems with Ginex or Servicios & Aventuras small pistol primers in any of my pistols or PCCs. I save the Federal SPP for revolver.

I switched from SNS 135s to BMB 137s to save a little money and my groups actually shrunk a bit. YMMV.

Another vote for Blade-Tech with Tek-Lok belt attachments. Link

It's made by Unrivaled and is included with every MEAN MAUL upper according to this thread: https://www.instagram.com/p/DBmEb60xaI6/

I run a Nelson Conversion with a small red dot sight but I agree with the suggestion above ... shoot some steel matches with your current setup and see if you like shooting steel.

Is he using a SHOK-BUFF® recoil buffer?

A follow up to the picture I posted above ... the scored pawl is a symptom, not the cause of my problem. It was a cracked index ring. But the crack was in the stem that holds the pawl so you can't see the crack looking under the platform assembly. Take the shell plate off and you can wiggle the cracked stem.

What's your budget?

I just encountered the exact same issue on my 750. Dillon is shipping a replacement index pawl. Here's what the grooved pawl looks like:
