The Swampfox Arrowhead has some of the best glass for it’s price range, the reticle is also day light bright which is very rare in it’s price range. One other feature of the Arrowhead is the exposed turrets is they are locking, Swampfox listened to their customers after their first LPVO the Tomahawk didn’t so they would get moved during a match.

4.8 gr. makes major with a 180 gr Blue Bullet. I think the problem is most people shooting minor are shooting 9mm.

The so called modularity of SIG guns has been a huge disappointment. I've purchased 2 sig 320's of different flavors and neither has other than the medium grip modules available. I won't purchase another. I wish SIG would produce the parts for the guns they have instead of changing/reinventing/introducing new things every month. And why in the world would you build a slide that will take everyone's optics and not your own?

Holy Necropost batman!
I designed the original BOSS holster hanger in 2013 (with testing and input from Stoeger). Turned out to be way more popular than I expected.
The real BOSS looks nice, not like the knockoffs you see that look like they were hacked out with a chain saw.

Our club bought a bunch of AMG timers. Just the timer alone is tough, never gets us issues, but being able to sync to our I Pads for times makes it even better.

I bought a set of 3 for my 2011's, they fit perfectly. They have a weight that feels like a regular mag half full of ammo.

We have a few shooters that have had their kids around 6-7 shoot Steel Challenge. It is worked out with the R.O. that the parent brings their son/daughter up and uncases the firearm and helps with the reload, etc. We run them at that age more for fun than score. I personally like the idea both for helping new shooters join the sport, but also for dad-daughter/son bonding.

Is there any reason that these plates wouldn't work on an X5 non Legion model? Is there any dimension differences between the iron sight plates?
Springer Precision makes a plate for the non-Legion X-five. The Non-Legion X-five is set up for a Romeo1 optic. Not the Pro.

Most sizing dies other than Dillon's don't have a lot of radius on the bottom of the die. Dillon increases their radius to help align the brass with the die. Using a case feeder does not always get every piece of brass perfectly into position to be sized.

I saw the Ed Brown M&P's, I was not impressed. Rather build my own M&P with Apex barrel & trigger, Dawson sights and whatever magwell/basepads I like. I can stipple the grip myself.
-
I wonder if anyone has bought one of theses? https://www.blackacestactical.com/product-page/pro-series-m-18-5-semiautomatic-synthetic
Like to know how it worked out? Good or bad

I would blend a regular none fiber optic blade to replace the front sight. I understand especially with the Legion you might want to put the sights back on it.
-
Springer Precision makes a couple different ones.

I would imagine that he means installing an Apex trigger kit nullifies the Legions trigger advantage.
The barrel lock up is better with the Legion. M&P's have sloppy lock up, the Apex barrel makes the M&P shoot decent groups. So you are just shy of $400 from the Apex flat trigger and the Apex barrel plus sights, to get it as good as a Legion, and then you still don't have the heavier grip.
I shot M&P's for a while and still my carry gun is a full size M&P i picked up cheap.

The Apex flat trigger nullifies that.
Nullifies what?

Both my M&P's are no where near as accurate as my P320 X-Five. The Sig shoots as real close to as tight of groups as my 2011's.
When you figure an Apex trigger and barrel to a M&P, that is another $400 to the M&P to make it equal to a Legion.
-
I have both M&P 5" Pros in both 1.0 and 2.0, I also bought a few weeks ago a P320 X-Five. The Legion if you like the grip has a better trigger than either of my M&P's. The Legion has probably the best striker fired gun trigger out of the box. Also the Legion now is set up to mount RMR pattern optics along with the Sig Romeo 1. Even the M&P CORES require adapter plates.
On The Legion if you don't like the grip you can really easily change the grip, or send off for grip mods.
To make a M&P close to a P320 Legion you would need an Apex trigger and barrel plus Dawson sights if not installing optics.

I got an e mail you can pre order them, I ordered mine at 2 AM..

Yeah. I have a video out there of it doing decapping and swaging. It's when I first got it, and did't have the case-feeder on it yet, and was still messing with the shuttle. I have another thread when I publish my times decapping when I got it dialed in. Swaging is at about the 45 sec mark.
Have you tried 223 on it?

They aren't shipping yet. Scheduled to start shipping 5/15 from a pop-up window I saw.
The date comes up when you select a magazine first. I bet each type magazine has a different ship date.

922r only seems to exist on the internet, not in real life.
922r affects the manufacturer and to an extent distributors. Once you own the gun, 922r does NOT to affect you.

115gr, 125gr Precision Delta and 125grZeros.
Thanks, I mostly load 147 gr Blue Bullets, but did just load up a bunch of Montana Gold 125 JHP I had laying around.

Either one more or less reliable under not great conditions (ie wet, dirty, muddy)
I have a 1301, one of the first ones. I hardly ever tear it down and clean it, mostly just run some CLP on the bolt and have no problems with the gun not running. I don't shoot real crap loads like Wal-mart bulk loads, but it runs great with most shotgun ammo.
I have been to matches that the range is pretty dusty and the M2 and Versamax guys have to teardown and clean there guns.
Swampfox Arrowhead 1-10x?

Even my Razor at 6 has a tighter eye box, as power goes up the eye box gets tighter and tighter. I like my Tomahawk and am glad Swampfox listened to us on the Arrowhead.
