  1. good to hear! and as far as being too expensive... for me its a couple bucks more but I get more rounds loaded per pound than some alternatives so it works out for me
  2. orignially the link took me to a google translate page. I was able to find that article. Sounds good news but it might be awhile till we see it again
  3. The last couple of times Ive gone into my local reloading store and asked about n320, the guy behind the counter has said I better find a replacement, citing the bankruptcy thing. However, it looks like this might be older info because I found this: http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2013/09/nammo-plans-to-acquire-vihtavuori-powder-plant-in-finland/ Anyone know anything about this? Edit: I stopped reading just short of RDA's post before I added my post. Probably referring to the same article, but his link doesn't work for me.
  4. I have a zev ss magwell and a SJC brass magwell for my 35. I got the zev first and it just didn't feel right. I picked up the SJC and I love it. Personal preference really, but I like the SJC. I have a zev mag release and love that.
  5. I love n320. but, I not a huge fan of TG so you may not like it if you dig TG

    Glock 17 Upgrades

    like the other guy said put a few thousand down the pipe and see how you like it. I didn't like the sights so I went with a Dawson adjustable rear and fo front. haven't looked back since. love them for a trigger I went with a vanek, love that and the phase "night and day" doesn't do it justice. however for less cash you can piece together a trigger that would very very close but it'll take time patiance and tweaking.
  7. as others have said, no they are not. I should have asked first Hehe. edit: I run a 17 with a similar load, a little slower, and I use a Wolff stainless guide rod with a zev 12 pound spring and I would like to try a 11 pound in for what its worth. also a classic vanek trigger system
  8. When you feel a primer give resistance, either with a hand primer or a 550 upstroke, do NOT just keep pushing. Stop and see if there is a crimp or a bad pocket or something. Primers are loud....
  9. I missed the sale at both places.... I'm not too fond of Natchez after they sent the wrong thing once and it was my fault. But, for 20 bucks a pop....
  10. I'm seeing 22 bucks right now at 515 pm cst on 3/24. deal dead?
  11. ah ok so since I bought a used one it is prolly one of the order models
  12. Well, the rear sight I bought it with has been removed (heinie), the previous owner or whomever put that sight on did not want it to move at all! Had to hit it more than I would have liked to get it to slide out. So the dawson adjustable is fit and looking good. I put the front sight on and... it overhangs the slide cut out. I thought I read somewhere that they don't? I should have looked into that a little more though. I didn't really want it to overhang b/c, imho, it looks dumb. The front sight that was on it previously overhung a ridiculous amount and I didn't like it. Edit: Did I just imagine I read that and they have always overhung, or did I do / am doing something wrong, or did they change it recently. Thanks
  13. thanks for the input guys. I ended up going with the sane height as on my 17, .285. I tend to shoot low so I got the shorter recommended height. Chet, ill prolly end up taking dawson up on that with my 1911. I had my milspec machined to fit a dove tail but I'm not a fan of the one the gunsmith used. And he put the wrong rear sight on. lol, that's for a different day and forum though.
  14. Lol, sorry about that. I guess it was IPSC. Yes, this is the video I was looking for. I haven't seen it since I first started shooting, and I could have sworn it was IDPA. Maybe thats why I couldn't find the one I was looking for when I searched for it. Thanks again.
  15. hey all I can't seem to find a particular video and wondering if anyone has a link. This video was at a nationals or some sort of large official looking match. It was on a crotch rocket motorcycle with a good looking lady behind you on the bike. anyone know the video I am talking about?
  16. Hey all So I bought a dawson FO font sight and adjusable rear for my 17. I love them. I picked up a 35 recently and want to replace the sights. I think it makes sense to get the same set so I only have to learn the one sight picture. Question is, should I get the same height, or a slightly different height. I'm thinking because I am getting the adjustable rear, I can make up for the cal and sight radius differences. Anyone have any input? Thanks.
  17. ah ok so it wasn't a design flaw.
  18. ah ok. so it was a random problem not a design flaw or something. thanks
  19. what was the issue with the magwell and how did you fix it? I'm thinking about to pick one up and plan on using dawson pads

    Gen3 Magwell

    Hey everyone. First time caller (in these forums), long time reader... I have been searching for some info regarding the pros and cons and comparing these two magwells, but can't seem to find what I am looking for. Specifically, I am looking at the ICE super-heavy magwell and the ZEV stainless with large (or maybe small) insert. This would be going on a gen3 glock 35 I am piecing together for limited. It looks like they are both fairly close in weight. I plan to use dawson basepad extensions, but I think either works with them. I think they both work with factory mags too, which is nice. I personally like the bling of the ZEV polished stainless. If the dawson had a polished option, I would prolly go with that. Anyone have any reasons why one of the two magwells is any better than the other? Thanks
  21. did you have to have it fitted? i thought the were drop in.
