I don't just take the comp off to clean, I've taken it off specifically because I needed a tighter pattern on a stage. Never change the choke as it isn't needed - the difference in the comp vs non comp spread is as much variability as I need from chokes.

After shooting a 32 rd all shotgun course about 10 mins ago I can confirm two things
1. My bleeding finger absolutely needs a larger charging handle. This little nub just doesnt do it.
2. 28 rd mag is a novelty and the 19 rd is way more worth it. All the 28 rd mag gave me was misfeeds and problems
Colorado 3 gun?

I've got some serious time restrictions that are making it super difficult to load ammo. I own a 1050 super with a PW autodrive but there always seems to be something wrong and I just don't have the time to deal with it these days.
So now I'm looking for someone that sells quality 38SC ammo loaded. Any suggestions?

I run a second dot because my primary dot when zeroed for bird is about 2' too low for my slugs at 50 yards. Two dots, two zeros - it's quite helpful.

Thanks

Any chance you would be willing to elaborate on what needs modding on the drum to make it work?

I don't feel panicked... but maybe that is the panic talking...
I've been shooting mag fed shotguns for a while and have broken several magazines - especially high capacity ones. Sometimes you end up dropping a loaded mag and that's a lot of weight on plastic or thin metal. Nevertheless, your mileage may vary. To each their own and all that.

They may break and you never know when you can get em again....

Shorter mags are pretty dang convenient when switching between bird and slugs or similar situations.

For those that have the comp, do extended chokes interfere with it? I mean just basic ones that extend around an inch not the 2" 3 gun chokes from Briley...
Trying to decide on buying flush chokes or extended. Extended like the Briley spectrum are nicer since you can easily tell what's in it from the color coding.

That's why I start with it loaded. That way I would just be dropping it for mag exchange.
For what it's worth, I've been shooting a Firebird for years and used to start stages with coupled 17 rounders for 32 rounds. A friend suggested that all that weight was slowing down my movement and ability to track aerials etc. At his suggestion I ran a stage both with coupled mags and a single mag and a reload from the belt. I found that I was significantly more accurate and ultimately faster with 17 and belt reload - even though it *felt* faster with the coupled. Tried a couple more times with same result so I stopped using the 32 round setup. Just my experience - yours may be different.

Take lower section off 19 and cut the spring = 10 ... Take that extra section and add to a 19 w TnN spring you now have "their" new 28 lol

That's a good idea...
I'll give it a try and let you know.

29 rounds is a lot of weight to move around but also a lot of weight to push up a magazine. My experience with Tooth and Nail has not been good so it will be interesting to see if those actually work.
On another note, I have been able to get 19 round mags but no 9 rounders. Anyone have a couple extra 9 rounders they want to trade for a new 19 rounder?

Anyone know what the right size Briley Mobil choke is? Their 3 gun chokes have .723 and .733 bore size options.

Talk to Mark at Immortal Arms

Does he have a website? The only one I've found only sells the "imortobot" which I'm not interested in... -
Guy who sold me the gun (GunBroker) had three 19's. I'd like to get several 9 rounders because I suspect I can use them with some + 12 extensions I built for my MKA 5 rounders. I have an extra long spring so I'm going to throw it together and see what happens... [emoji2957]

Anyone know where some 9 rounders are in stock? I actually found 19's and bought them up but don't have any 9.

Hard to beat the size of the glass in a cmore. For me, that is the determining factor. I want to be able to see the most dot in the most situations. If I have a poor draw and i'm not aligned perfectly, with a bigger glass I have a better chance of still being able to see my dot.

I ended up trading my T&N for a Firebird and couldn't be happier. The T&N was a jam machine with just about any magazine, the Firebird runs 100%. Something to look into, especially since the Firebird is the same price for much much better design.

I started with a T&N, ended up with a Firebird. Honestly, the Firebird is a whole other league than the T&N. The pins to remove the lower are so nice.
I don't want to rag on anyone but my T&N was very difficult to keep running - the Firebird is 100%. -
Ever find someone's who makes kydex holster for an open gun 2011?

That magnet is smart - I'm going to do that too!

Eesh that's not good. I'm using an Elf and the MPX does beat the heck out of the hammer. But when I look at the stock sig hammer it looks the same so I wasn't worried. Now I have to think about carrying an extra trigger in the back up parts kit...
The MPX is really hard on any trigger you put in it. I wouldn't be surprised to see more stories of failure in the future until MPX specific triggers start coming out.

Looks good Eric. Does the comp work you think?

My comp patterns are at least 15% bigger. (Mod Choke)
