Thanks for all the great info ! Sounds like there are more options then I currently have here in south Florida so i have a lot to loo forward to.
If you have any questions about the Round Rock, Cedar Park, Leander area let me know I live where the three touch together.

Copperhead rents bays to non-members for $15 an hour, $5 for members. They also have a steel range with quite a bit of MGM steel set up like plate rack, Texas Star etc. Copperhead also has a long range to 600 yds.
Reville Ranch is now open to the public, they have a bunch of bays plus a 800 yds. long range. TSA charges per month, and currently has rifle to 100 yds. Many of the bays have steel targets set up in them, so you don’t need to haul your own.

I’m with OPENB. It doesn’t depend on when the gun is made. It depends on what red dot the cut is made for. If it’s cut for the Romeo 1 Pro, then you’ll need a legion adapter to mount the 3Max. Yes, the earlier X5s were only cut for the Romeo 1 but the newly released versions are cut for the Romeo 1 Pro..
Since the OP’s gun is cut for the Romeo 1 Pro, he needs the legion adapter(which is used on the Legion’s Romeo 1 Pro cut) to mount the Romeo 3Max.
Legion's are cut for the Romeo 1 Pro and also for the RMR mount for later. The non-Legion X-5 was cut for the Romeo 1 only. If ordering an adapter it is best to contact the seller if unsure. A quick pic on an e mail saves a lot of heartburn.

Doesn’t matter what the gun is called, whether Legion, X5, or whatever. If it’s cut for a Romeo 1 Pro, which all X5 Legions are, the Romeo 3 Max will not fit it without an adapter plate. In this case, the Legion plate would be the correct plate since the slide is cut for the Romeo 1 Pro, not a Romeo 1. It’s not really that hard, but you have to know what cut you have on your slide.
No, it depends when the gun was made, the earlier X-5's were cut for the Romeo 1, not the Romeo 1 Pro. If unsure call Springer with the slide in your hand, or email them a good pic of the slide.

I bought a Springer adapter for my X-5, it was a slightly tight fit, so it did need some slight fitting.

Ordered a large case of 9mm Blue Bullets last month, sent an email today, should be shipping 9/30

Holosun should have come up with a new set of numbers for the 407k/507k. Especially since Holosun just released their 407C/507C which is an upgrade of their current ‘full-size’ sights. Made it a bit confusing.

may be selling some Winchester large pistol, around 10k, How do I ship these ? I probably still have a heavy duty powder valley box.
To ship UPS you need have gone through the proper training and ID the package with the right labels to ship HazMat. There are certain amounts you can ship, 10K primers should be OK.

Sad to hear they stopped servicing the bullet feeders. Since that option is out I'd highly recommend a MBF. I got one for 40sw as well and I have had no issues to date.
I nearly bought a GSI, glad I bought a Mr. Bulletfeeder instead. Customer service is first class, the owner/inventor has no problem e mailing you with help when setting it up. Even the instruction manual is first class. -
GSI is not supporting their bullet feeder. GSI is still in business but nothing with their bulletfeeders

Wow! I bet they need washing by now.
I have four pair, they went on sale right when the Covid-19 stuff hit so I ordered two more pair.
They are in 3 different colors so you can tell I change them. -

I love Duluth Trading shorts, I haven't worn any other pants since March.

When people worry about the height of a red dot on a slide, look at how high the red dot is on most open guns.
Yes you do need to dry fire your draw a bit to get the right presentation,.

Looks like Hayes Custom has a complete set of mods for the VR80 now:
Getting the mods done is $1500, plus charges for extras like the odin stock.
I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just thought this was neat.
I looked on the Hayes website, their shotgun is $1500 including the shotgun.

To me the best carry holster is one that is comfortable all day so you will carry it all day. I like an Alien Gear 3.5 at 4 o'clock, especially if in and out of a car a lot.

Maybe we should stop thinking of their products as semi-custom and rather just merely assembled.
STI’s are kind of like Harleys, once you buy one you start making it yours.

Well I had no idea what a silicon carbide grip is but after looking it up I might buy a frame and give it a shot.
You could practice on a bunch of AR15 grips, just about everyone has a bunch laying around. -

May be off a little on size but a 5/64 hex bit used in a 2 mm hole one or the other will strip.
Snap on or Mac are the best. FYI Dewalt is a division of Mac (Cheaper Line?)
Both DeWalt and MAC are owned by Stanley tools.

On 9mm you can run it with one head, with the extra money get a Mr. Bulletfeeder
deprime/resize
swedge
prime
charge
seat bullet
crimp

Get a BOSS hanger, most holsters are drilled with the Blade-Tech/Comp-tec pattern
-
I have a QLS on a couple of BOSS mounts with different holsters. Stays never solid, nice to be able to remove the holster on some non-pistol stages.

There is no buy once , cry once optic. The SRO is the closest I’ve heard of so far but in your case, you have a DPP mount. The DPP is a fine optic. Use that as a starting place to learn what you need in an optic.
I know a couple people with SRO’s in stead of C Mores.

Try 3.8 - 4.0 grains of ASP with a Rockey Mountain Reloaders 124 JHP. That load has done quite well in my PPQ SF, P320 M17/M18, and Gen5 G17 with OEM barrel.

I’ve only seen one person with a black aces shotgun. It was a box fed pump. The gun refused to cycle without problems. Jams and magazine feed issues even with the pump. They appeared very difficult to muscle through, it was very unimpressive. I’d stick to the tried and true shotguns if you’re trying to go box fed. Why break the existing formula.
If a pump is rough, imagine what a semi auto would be like.

If you move to the east side of Round Rock or Hutto ARC is closer to there. Might see if that works out for you. Copperhead and Reville Peak are more 3 gun friendly as far as guns you can use and targets you can set up.
