  1. Just installed my timney in a 34/5. Seems really good but would like to shorten the take up. Is there any way to do that? What gains will I see from an aftermarket connector? Right now it’s all stock minus the timney.
  2. Thanks for the replies. I’m using the largest blackstrap on my gen 5 and on the gen 3 I’m running one of the rubber grip sleeves. Both help and are probably good enough I just feel if I could get a little bit longer reach it would feel more natural.
  3. I would like to replace my trigger on my gen 3 19 and gen 5 17 for something with a longer reach. I have Xl-xxl hands and would like the trigger to be farther forward and break farther forward.
  4. Thanks for the video and tips guys. Going to try to tweak the mags this weekend and see how they do.
  5. I’m trying to get back into uspsa and 3 gun after taking 8 years off while my kids were little and recently traded into a used STI DVC 3gun 9mm. The person I traded with gave me 4 mags with the gun. It appears the 2 black ones are the factory sti mags that came with the gun and the 2 silver ones are aftermarket? I’m having multiple issues with the mags. The long silver magazine on the right is tight in the mag well. It goes in and clicks but won’t drop free. Appears to be too long front to back. It measures around 1.38-1.392” vs the other mags measure 1.365-1.38”. Can I just sand down the outside a bit? Is it the wrong magazine for the gun? Next im having issues with bullets feeding up the mag, seems the mags might be too wide inside and the bullets are wedging side by side? Best way I can describe it is the mag feeds a few then stops feeding, pull the mag out and the top portion of the loaded bullets in the mag are loose and you can shake the bullets out and about half way down or so there are bullets “stuck” I have to use a screwdriver to push down on the second bullet down and then the bullets come loose and feed up. This happens on the 2 black sti mags. I noticed that the 2 silver ones without spacers when they are loaded you can shake the magazine and sounds like the bullets are just Rattling around loose inside the magazines. Is that normal? My Glock, M&P, and other mag feed guns don’t do that, maybe because there is more space front to back? Last thing I noticed is the 2 black mags use spacers and the 2 silver mags don’t, the short silver magazine is shorter than the 2 black mags but uses a longer spring? There is also 3 different looking followers? can anyone help me figure out what I need to do to make these mags serviceable? I ordered 3 new style sti mags to be able to get shooting but would like to get these working as well. Thanks
  6. Called seekins great customer service. Was told that the surefire mags have a large tolerance so some fit some dont. They explaned what i needed to do to make it fit, try to form the front corners where it was hitting in slightly. I tried it and still a little tight but some more tweaking and it should be ready to rock. Thanks for the replies. Too sum it up THE NEW SEEKINS WORK WITH THE SUREFIRE 60.
  7. On second thought I could pull the springs out to give me a chance next time around
  8. You don't need any more help your killing me already !
  9. Interesting i will give him a call and see. He is marketing a 3 gun rifle so i thought it was a little odd that the surefire didnt fit.
  10. Just recieved my seekins precision lower and put it together this weekend. To my disapointment my 60 round surefire mag will not latch, the front of the magwell that looks so sweet comes down to far to let the mag seat. Just a heads up for anyone considering this lower. Not trying to bash the product, I actually love it but just letting people know before they buy.
