  1. I understand....i thought perhaps it was a bondo type of adhesive product that one could shape and then allow to harden. thank you for taking the time to respond. do you think you'll have one of your hammers available for the 686 plus pro type of revolvers?
  2. i understand....any thoughts as to what material might be used to create the beavertail.....i have a neurologic injury and this might be a great option for me.
  3. I found this photo in the new Dillon catalogue...the photo/advertisement is meant for a comp tac holster.i went to the comp tac website but can not find any info on the grip itself. i would love to get a grip like this for the SW 686 plus pro.wondering if anyone had seen this one or knew of a similar design, i really like the beavertail and the bottom extension.thank you
  4. I appreciate the response, thank you it's great to hear that there are many suitable options with respect to the seater modification, was this something that you could effect like a simple polishing or was it something that required factory intervention?
  5. Hi, i've been reloading long range rifle ammunition for a few years now. I would like to try my hand at reloading pistol ammunition, primarily 9mm and .45acp for the range. My intent is for tight little groups on paper....(no run and gun, no self defense or hunting). (i didn't want to post the same query on both the 9mm and the .45acp sections). I have a Forster Co-Ax single stage press. I'm not sure which brands/models of dies to invest in, there are so many to choose from. I would prefer to keep prices below $150 for a single caliber set...unless you feel that that's insufficient, then i would consider higher priced sets if need be. thank you
  6. Rick Hebert was really nice to deal with and the pistol runs great
  7. Some of my older compensators had a recess that fit over the bushing......with your design it might perhaps help take up the dead space and minimize the compensator's potential tendency to spin/rotate. In It's current form, it appears quite long, I wonder if a shorter set up might end up giving you less hassles in the long run? just a couple of thoughts
  8. the causes are myriad....while it might prove to be an improper sear-hammer interface ....assuming geometries are correct, and in view of a new hammer, sear, and spring....you might first, safely, bench trial augmenting sear spring pressure to see if that helps.
  9. Would anyone happen to know the glass lens dimensions of the springfield armory hex dragonfly red dot optic.....not the footprint or unit dimensions....just those of the glass itself. thank you
  10. Sinister, sounds awesome.....i'd sure love to see a photo of your build if possible.
  11. anyone have any experience with the Bushnell RXS250 ? would it compare well to the aforementioned or would it hold him back?
  12. My Son loves the p226 and he wants to start competing in steel shoots. he's quite serious and very safe. i'd prefer to cry once rather than purchase something he'll rapidly outgrow but i wouldn't mind not throwing money at bling. We would sure appreciate any guidance. My Son showed me photos of a Holosun 509 series as well as the large red dot that was on Max Michel's pistol but honestly i know so little about all of this and we're open to any and all brands and models. thank you.
  13. very cool....kind of reminds me of the sit match master
  14. read good things about them.....there's a nice promotion going on right now where they give you an extra stock and fore-end ...(i saw it posted on the Europtic website)
  15. thank you...i understand to answer your questions (my friend and myself both took classes from the same instructor so i refer to us in the plural).....after removing the pistol from the holster, having brought it up to eye level and pointing at the target....only then do we begin to prep the trigger as we are extending our arms. after discharge/firing the cartridge and as long as we're on a target we do then steadily release tension on the trigger till feeling the reset point. perhaps our pistols have a more distinct reset point? i very appreciate the help and information
  16. I had the opportunity to fondle a couple of Bruce Gray's p320s.....full on open customs with with their awesome Tungsten infused grip, Bar-Sto barrels, amazing trigger. That gun felt so nice in hand, it balances beautifully....I was very impressed and at least for myself, the grip blows away even the Wilson frame. I also had a chance to play with a couple of production and limited type models. It was cool to review the evolution of their p320 parts. A really great experience, spoke with some of the steel / speed shooters as well who were very pleased, they were hammering with the pistol. Mr. Gray has an incredible understanding of that platform and really delved into the workings of the pistol and optimized it well beyond i would have thought possible. I would love to get my hands on one. Their warranty is incredible as well.
  17. it's tough to change......i think we both strongly internalized prepping the trigger, surprise break...bullseye shooting fundamentals. appreciate the help
  18. thanks for posting that....Ian makes a lot of interesting videos. would be nice to see the development of features that would be more favorable to the aging participant
