Ahh. I clicked on the convo just to see where SLC was! Curiosity killed the cat. Welcome to the outside. Now you can join in on the conversation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Three very good points right there. Def have helped me out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good for you. See you around Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh no. You two bringing the donkey talk to this forum too? Ha ha. Welcome. Good technical stuff here. Saw your match vids of statesvillle on Carolina forum. Weak hand stuff. Wish I could have made that match but had to be out of town. How did you qualify?

My vote is which ever pump is easier for you to manipulate and feel most comfortable. I prefer the 870 more as Mossbergs tend to rattle in my experiences with turkey hunting and the like. Can be had cheap with tons of mods available. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

True. A visual or mental movement and aim cues would be more subconscience commitment to memory and able to do the stage better as well I would imagine. Just guessing as never done a major match. Only local 5 stage club matches at this point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What a great write up for a technical person as myself. This really helps my stage breakdown. Thanks for sharing. Question, when you walk the major stages the day before so you take notes to rehearse the night before. Or just engrain a mental run and call it good? Thanks again for sharing.

Yeah this, ^^^^. Karma doesn't seem kind on that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You will like that saw. Just take your time on set up and be careful on using in the beginning. It is way stronger than the delta contractor saw and kickback can be strong. I once saw a 3" piece of plywood go ten feet back and pierce the steel door from operator error. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah getting that percentage, or any really, is unacceptable. Total operator error in several possible areas to get a squib. Don't blame it on the machine. Kind of like missing a putt in golf and throwing the putter in the lake. Don't drown the 550 because of your own inability to pay attention and follow the process. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah no problems. You can also put the small rifle in the 40 pistol case too. Works fine with a 1911/2011 in my experience. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice bling. Changing the trends in pop culture I see. Equal to the "grille" in fashion. Will it soften at all and wear at uneven rates though? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good advice. My Eagle and Trojan both run fine with factory ammo and my loads at 1.140" which also runs in my Glock 35. They should run fine with factory ammo. Try some and load accordingly. +1. I tried long out of the box and then realized factory would work fine. No problems and never worked back. Try WWB first and then see where it goes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Try the ridgeline. My work vehicle is a ridgeline and it works nice. I am 6'7" and 300# too. It isn't a full size truck but the has mileage and drivability of it is pretty impressive. So far 150,000 miles in three years with no issues other than very routine. The trunk in the back is huge and locks with the doors. Worth a look IMO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I get a few this weekend and post. Long day of flying today. Airports...wait that is another thread. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Being the cheap guy I am. I went to a furniture reseller found online. Basically a warehouse that buys furniture when offices upgrade or go out of business. Got a Point of Sale station from like a wireless phone store that is 9' long, on casters and has lockable drawers and cabinets. Removed the glass top and put in a plexiglass top that can hold screws. Plugged in display lights and can see what's inside from above. Sturdy as crap and spent $40. No way you can beat that. Furniture wholesale place definitely works for me.

Is that for Friday nights light show? Nice work on the score. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I will change the springs and get it to the range this weekend. Although I have tried this before with little success, but plan to do more methodical this time. If this doesn't work then I will call Zev and report back. Thanks for all the ideas and responses. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good points. I need to measure and compare. Any good diagrams to show exactly where to measure would be helpful? It just seems odd that it break after so many rounds though.

Platform: glock Gen 4 G34 with approx 500 rounds Upgrade: Zev Fulcrum fully adjustable trigger (Note: kit is used off of here a few months back but been playing in 2011 world.) Issue: cycles fine and everything works great until the last round in the magazine. The slide will rack and load the round but won't reset the trigger. Happens no matter how many rounds were in mag and five different mags and always on last round. Operator can slide finger back and gently press trigger forward until you feel the click and the obvious trigger reset. Works fine and slide locks open after manual reset. So what did I do wrong? I am confused.

That was a great read and analysis of 1911 accuracy and where to spend the money.

OK. Suggestions as to whom to send to?

good to know. Which phone charge was it, for future reference for mobile charging...

If the Zen of the guarantee helps in the mental prep then perhaps. But if you are comfortable with your basics then it doesn't really matter. To me, the old adage of "look good, feel good, play good" comes to mind. that 1.5" 1911 looks really good to me!

Ok reviving an old thread. This weekend my 2011 wouldn't cycle on the last course of fire after firing one shot. It was very hard to rack slide back and get expired casing out, but managed to do so. This happened the last three times I tried. Got gun home and broke it down to find a broken barrel link. This gun is new to me (about 2,000 rounds) but fairly well used before me (at least 15,000 rounds). So I am thinking that since I haven't broken a link prior that this is just a case of fatigue on the part and simply replace and go. However, reading some posts it sounds like replacing it could lead to some larger issues. It broke on the upper link (barrel side) if that helps at all. Any thoughts on simply replacing and monitoring vs getting it to a qualified smith?
