Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. I've got the steel rival and my son has a couple of polymer rivals. They both run fine on my perfectly ordinary reloads and have never given us trouble with the various brands of factory ammo we shoot. They're both excellent pistols so you won't go wrong with either one.
  2. I've run through 10,000 of these over the last year. I had to replace a reduced power striker spring in one of my pistols to get reliable ignition. The hammer fired guns were fine. I'm out now and I wish I could get more.
  3. I've shot tens of thousands of these bullets in 9mm, both 147 and 165 grain. I've never had any bullet related problems. Shipping is kind of high, though.
  4. I like Dawson Precision sights. I've got them on a couple of M&Ps. https://dawsonprecision.com
  5. Is the Alien really approved for Production? I couldn't find it on the list.

    It'll feel fatter than a 1911, because it's a double stack. I know that's pretty obvious. There's a wide variety of replacement grip profiles available from various companies, thick, thin, palm swell, etc., so you can adjust it to your taste if you're willing to spend the money. I shoot an Accushadow and a Shadow 2, neither of which is ever going to feel much like a 1911, but they are fine pistols and well worth the effort it took to transition from my previous platform.
  7. I have the lok palm swell bogies on mine. I really like them.
  8. I ran some 147 gr American Eagle through my Shadow 2 with no problems. Of course, I reload like most everyone here so I don't run much factory ammo of any kind. For what it's worth, I load Xtreme 147s to an OAL of 1.15 inches and they always work fine. Maybe measure some factory rounds with a caliper?
  9. Yes, 10+1. I don't know why it's so hard to find, but it is. The carry optics rules are pretty much ESP with a dot.
  10. It's hurting my participation. I had to withdraw from a match last Saturday to conserve ammo for the state match later this month. Luckily, my big bullet order shipped today, so maybe I can get busy with the Dillon and lay in a stockpile.
  11. My first match, last October. Sorry I waited so long to try it.

  12. Yes, but because of some malevolent voodoo in the new design none of my friends who tried could drop the slide with the right side release. I can drop it with my left index finger on the left side release, if I hear down very hard. Dead slow, though. Pretty disappointing for us lefties. My son thinks it will loosen up with use. I hope he's right.
  13. An Sti Guardian in .45, now shoot an Sti Ranger II in 9mm.
