Most of the time my orders have arrived at my doorstep by the time i finish submitting my order, very good service from Shooters Connection.

In! Looking forward to the match.

Mr. Burwell was at production nationals this year shooting an m&p that i can only assume he has done his own trigger job on, that in itself would lead me to believe that his trigger jobs are gtg.

Anyone get any info on this at Shot?

Glocks do have that block-o-wood feel to them, i prefer my g19 for home defense but my m&p 9 is what i take to play with. IMO the m&p just feels better in the hand.

I would also advise running a 13lb recoil spring as opposed to the 11lb spring for the reasons mentioned above. I think once you start putting more rounds on that 11lb spring you may have some problems with the gun coming out of battery.

SSS has offered a "shark skin" style stippled backstrap in the past that i have been using for quite awhile, but i believe they are currently out of them. You might give them a call to see if they plan on selling them sometime in the future. The backstrap is pretty aggressive and allows the hand to register a good grip that doesn't weaken under recoil.

Agreed. The USB will eliminate most of the grit and the "hump" in the trigger pull. Adding the Apex hard sear will clean up what's left and shorten the reset. This^^^ The USB is very good but when coupled with the hard sear everything is better.

Anyone have a link to photos or an article?

Glad i ordered pretty much every spare part for M&P back in the summer, seeing as strikers are scarce right now.

Cool well I'm gonna give the Para Pro shop a call to verify. Thanks for the help

So is the EGW a one size fits all calibers? It appears there is only one available from the Para Pro Shop. Thanks for the input.

So long story short, i found a good deal on a naked 16.40 slide i was thinking about adding to a 1st gen Caspian frame I've had collecting dust for a year or two. Unfortunately the slide is drilled for the PXT extractor, i see the EGW fix that is available from the Pro shop here: http://paraproshop.com/egw-hd-extractor-pxt-pistols.html Question is will this work on the 16.40 slide since it is 40 S&W? And if not is the sleeve option a good approach to fixing the problem? If using the EGW sleeve approach am i correct in assuming a series 80 extractor must be used? I would appreciate any insight that might be useful in determining whether i should jump on this deal or not.

I think...caliber has to remain as it was from the factory, but you can change to an aftermarket barrel as long as you aren't changing calibers. Best bet would be to set it up for limited and develop a 40 major and 40 minor load where all you have to do is swap basepads, pull magwell and go.

Here are the stages all in one file, if this is stepping on toes feel free to nuke from orbit. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bxdpu-BgGY2eaVJxN1ExTUJIbTQ/edit?usp=sharing

I picked up few 40 mags from CDNN and following your method i was able to "adjust" the feed lips. I put a few hundred rounds down range through 4 separate "tuned" mags and did not have any problems. I opted to use new 9mm followers since they were available. Thanks for posting this up.

I do not believe there is a 5" ProL, i think the only options in a 5" gun are a 5" Pro or a 9L. The 9L is no longer in production from my understanding. The difference between the 5" Pro and the 9L are the different sights and sear.

I did the following on my gun and have loved the setup: Full Comp AEK and RAM Dawson Adjustable rear with .285" x .125" front sight ISMI 13lb recoil spring Dawson grip tape Medium contour stippled backstrap from Speed Shooter Specialties And i guess after reading a little bit of this thread i may talk myself into trying the compact base pads for the mags and maybe a different guide rod.

Sounds great.

thanks man

I will be relocating to Huntsville for the summer, are there any ranges i could join for a couple months? I plan on shooting the local matches at Rocket City but it appears their range is only open for matches. Any other information for local matches would be welcome as well.

This match was a blast last year, my app is going in the mail this week!
