Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Glad you got it running! I have an older 9 Pro that I had the slide lightened, and an RMR cut deep into the back. Once I installed the Carver Comp and KKM barrel, along with the Apex FSS trigger, I needed to play with the springs for use with factory rounds (minor). I have a full set of flat ISMI and round Wolff springs! Note for the Wolff spring set (recoil and striker), the included striker spring is standard power, I had to specifically order the reduced power Striker spring separately from Wolff.
  2. Are you running the Carver Comp with factory rounds? I am for 9 minor, and it took a bit of trial & error to get it right. The 11lb ismi flat spring is stronger than the 12lb wolff. I found the 12 Wolff would barely keep it in battery, which would cause the light strikes when on the move in a match. I switched to the 11 flat spring and it runs solid. Note in the M&P that the recoil and striker springs fight against each other, so a lighter Wolff reduced power striker spring would also help in your case, but try the flat recoil spring first.
  3. I have the 9 Pro with the full Apex FSS kit. I run an 11lb ismi spring with the stock striker spring when I run my comp with factory 9, and the 13lb ismi without the comp. This is with a KKM barrel. I tried a Wolff 12lb spring, and I may have 1 or 2 light strikes in 100 rounds fired. Its solid with the 11 ismi.
  4. Is this a 12lb wolff spring? I was running a 12lb wolff on my comped kkm, but had a light strike or two per match. I am now running a 11lb imsi, it gives more push at the end of the lockup.
  5. No hitting on my carved in RMR on a 9Pro. This is with any spring, with and without my comp. Mine does sit far back on the slide, I do not have a rear sight.
  6. I run both ismi and wolff reduced power glock springs in my M&P. I found that the Wolff spring runs a pound lighter over the ismi. For example the 12lb wolff is lighter than the 11lb imsi, the 14lb wolff is lighter than the 13lb imsi.
  7. What kind of thumb rest is that?Its from Speed Ledge LLC, the one I have is their first gen thumb rest. It mounts on the front rail, and fits in any of the 3 slots for adjustment.The other parts are Carver comp on a KKM barrel, Apex FSS trigger kit, SSS Magwell, Springer Precision slide racker and mag bases, Trijicon RMR 07 with slide work done by DP Custom Works.
  8. I am not talking parallax, but rather the type of cowitness which is based on how tall your iron sights are in relation to the optic. For a true cowitness, the irons appear in the middle of the optic. A popular option is lower-third, in which the irons are shorter, so the cowitness happens in the bottom of the optic window, giving less distraction. My pro-9 front sight is much shorter than the core front sight, also I do not have a rear sight as I use the base of the RMR, so my cowitness view happens extremely low in the optic window giving me no distractions.
  9. I dont have a Core, but I have my Trijicon milled into the slide of my 9 Pro. I kept the stock fiber front sight, which gives me a reference point to help find the dot quickly when firing around angles/corners in uspsa. I did not want to obscure the sight window by getting a taller front. I have a bottom 5% co-witness with my setup.
  10. Correct, the rail mount is detachable, and also available separately. Should mount right on the core with the adapter. I have a 9-Pro, and used a SSS dovetail mount. I liked it so much I sent out my slide to have the RMR melted on, and the slide carved and lightened. I still need to post my dovetail mount to sell one day.
  11. Last year I bought both the DeltaPoint and the Trijicon RMR 07. I liked them both, very solid, will do the job well. I kept the RMR for a few reasons: - I liked the RMR adjustments better, clickable on the fly and easily accessible while mounted. I bounce between loads and configurations, and I can compensate easily during a match. - Even though the DP has a larger window, the usable space is about the same. I had the larger triangle DP, and the triangle distorts on the screen at the edges. The RMR dot is solid even at the extreme edges. - The RMR is more rugged and would easily survive a bump or fall. There is a video of someone using it as a hammer. - I liked the controls better on the RMR, the automatic mode was much faster to respond, and manual override to lock in any light level. It was a tough choice to make, and you can't go wrong with either.
  12. Just about complete with my open M&P 9 Pro
  13. I have the older version 1 speed ledge. I use a Hogue PowerSpeed 500 MP9_Open1.jpg
  14. I have a Carver 3-port comp on a KKM barrel for my Open 9-Pro. With factory ammo for minor, I run a 12lb Wolff spring. Lately I have not been running the comp, but I do have a thumb pedal from Speed Ledge LLC to keep the nose flat. Once I get my reloading setup, I can make some gassier minor loads and some for major.
  15. Just received them in the mail, they work perfect with the SSS magwell! Extremely well made!
