  1. My fastest time with no concealment is a 1.47, with several in the mid 1.5 range. I consider these one off pretty lucky runs just for fun. I consider 1.8 my standard reproducible time, the way I shoot it in the classifier. I tell guys to go for a 2 second goal generally.

    The best way to practice it for me is to put a 3x5 card in the head box and draw to two shots to it. This forces you to aim since hitting the 3x5 card is significantly more difficult than just the brown head box, once you can do this consistently, the Mozambique is easy.

  2. I have a super 1050 with the PW auto drive and I have noticed that when at full extension ( bottom of downstroke) I can see movement of the press indicating to me at least that I might be over driving the press. I felt that I had it adjusted correctly but I want to know if their are any guidelines on setting the stroke adjustment with this setup. Thanks

  3. There is little doubt about its legality. It is a cone barrel and longer than allowed, so it is not legal. Having said that, you can still enjoy shooting it, but knowing it is not legal and trying to sneak by is probably not the way to go.

    "A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base (frequently, though not necessarily, circular) to a point called the apex or vertex."

    Where do you see that it tapes smoothly? Consider the fact that it tapes smoothly then breaks abruptly in a 45 degrees angle.

    I do not think it is a cone barrel.

    fatter at the muzzel, skinnier further back

  5. I have only tried the three brands listed, so I don't have any info on tula primers.

    Neither spring was a HUGE change on its own, but the entire package works great for me.

    I look at it like weight reduction in drag racing. Taking a small amount out from many places.

    The problem is I don't really want my SA to be any lighter. I don't know what I can do to only lighten DA

    Reduced power trigger spring , hammer spring, plunger spring. Polish everything. Reduced power sear spring may make SA lighter also

  6. I went with the henning FP, EG light hammer spring, EG hammer, EG light plunger spring and fp block spring, henning guide rod and lighter recoil spring, dawson 180 front ,Lpa fiber optic rear, and light sear spring and I piece sear, polished everything and ended up with the best tanfo trigger of any of my gunsmith done tanfos. The one thing I am going to change is to go back to the regular sear spring. My SA is just too light and I may have had one sear bounce AD into the berm(it might have been me). I used the lightest plunger spring in the EG set and mine works well but I hear some guns have issues with reset after a while.

  7. I can only assume the chrome has more weight. Also small discrepancies in the forging/castings occur I suppose. The beavertails on all these guns are different. The lim pros are longer and the stock 3s are fatter and shorter.

    The slide weights include all parts. The frames did not include the slide stop.

  8. Weight comparison All 9mm

    Lim pro- slide,19.35oz. Frame-19.35. Gun-39.15

    Stock 11. Slide 18.55. Frame 20.55. Gun. 39.50. ( this gun has wooden grips, the others have EG aluminum grips .75oz heavier)

    Stock 111. Slide 19.25. Frame. 22.85. Gun. 42.55

    Limited slide-19.30 (note it weighs less than the lim pro non cone Barrel slide)
