  1. Yeah, I agree you should build up the sear block on the safety and learn how it interacts to block the sear

    You'll need to take off your main spring housing and grip safety to observe function.

    It isn't a friction wear area, it should never have more force applied than you pulling the trigger with the safety engaged, and you shouldn't be pulling the trigger while simultaneously disengaging the safety. Peening is basically deforming the material on your non functional safety because it's probably only out of spec a few hundred thousands.

    In the end, when you're familiar with the safety and how it works I would order a new one and fit it.

    Also a good example of why function checks are important. Pull the trigger with safety on, release and take off thumb safety. Hammer doesn't fall. Etc. continue with grip safety etc.

  2. I've had good luck with power pistol.

    I load 180gr plated rmr rnfp at 1.2 with 6.5gr of PP.

    172PF 30shot avg from my RIA 40 ultra match.

    Fills the cases nicely and meters accurately from my hornady LNL ap powder throw.

    I don't notice any flash like people say.

  3. I went to the range yesterday to break in my new .40 pistol I plan to use for limited. I used my phone to take a slow motion video while I shot from a rest. When I reviewed the video and moved frame by frame I could see my thumb on my weak hand was really failing to keep engagement on the frame. Now, the shooting position I was using was not ideal, I did notice when shooting unsupported as you'd normally shoot in a match the recoil actually seemed much lower, although I wasn't able to capture it on video to review.

    I'd like to try a thumb rest to see how it works for me. I may try gluing something on before drilling into my frame though.

  4. I can confirm for a fact now that I've received my 40 Ultra match that these are the factory magazines that come with the Ultra match 40. Tested them all today and they all work great.

    Magazine Info for the PRO MATCH 40 ULTRA;

    Armscor directed me here when I asked to purchase extra magazines. I ordered 5, but haven't received any or my pistol yet to test them. Hope this helps.

    Here are some pics of the mags. They measure .930ish so they should drop free.

  5. Just ordered a RIA tac ultra in 45. I've been eying them since they were vaporware years ago and really wanted one in a 9mm.

    I decided to go with the 45 because I don't load 40, and that's all I could find in stock. That 40 looks really good without the dust shield cut, oh well.

    Now to find mag holders and a holster.
