  1. Older thread here but just tore my calf yesterday while aggressively moving from a shooting box to another shooting area. Felt like what the OP said like I got popped by a ricochet or something. definitely pulled me up from my run, but was able to finish. Luckily was just one stage left which I hobbled through. Seems to be mine isn't super bad, as today it is sore but I can flex my foot up and down and eventually the sore subsides and there is no visible bruising or swelling. I can put weight on it too so I am hoping it is just minor. Sucks because I have 4 majors left this year and I am not sure the next 2 are going to be happening. Its a fairly strange injury for me as I don't really have calf muscles I have cows and work out/stretch them regularly. I would have expected a groin or another MCL injury before I pulled a calf muscle (I've been an ice hockey goalie since I was 13-14). Sucks getting old!
  2. If you are meaning for production, I don't think so. The box is 1 5/8" tall and I just measured from my desk (with the gun laying flat) to the edge of the Tevo and its 2.156".
  3. This is how mine is from Stone Bridge Gun Works and it is fine. I just made sure to apply blue thread locker and let it cure for 24hrs and its been GTG
  4. Also just found these on Amazon - Stainless Carbon Steel Ebay also has a bunch of options Not sure if the shape is right, but hopefully this helps!
  5. You can use Torx heads in bit screws sometimes and they wont strip as easy. Also you are only torquing those to like 12 -14 in/lbs so a bit should work OK. The extra screws I have are hex and I haven't had those break on me (They are grade 8 so a bit better quality than the crap pot metal they are shipped with)
  6. If you have an Ace hardware around they should have them. A bit more expensive but you don’t have to buy tons
  7. I've started using Iron American after seeing a few guys try it and like it. Its cheap and works well. Comes in white which is similar to Pro grip and then they have a pink version which I guess smells like strawberries lol. https://ironamerican.com/collections/liquid-chalk/products/iron-american-pink-liquid-sports-chalk Not sure how much you need, but they sell multiples at a discount too: 2 pack ($14.95ea for 8.3 oz bottles) https://ironamerican.com/collections/liquid-chalk/products/liquid-sports-chalk-white?variant=42364889399474 6 pack ($13.33ea) https://ironamerican.com/collections/liquid-chalk/products/liquid-sports-chalk-white?variant=42673912021170 12 pack ($12.50es) https://ironamerican.com/collections/liquid-chalk/products/liquid-sports-chalk-white?variant=42673912053938 *Edit - just saw they also sell it in Walmart now too
  8. Ive got a crap ton of 6-32 x 7/16" screws I replaced my SRO screws with when one sheared off if you need some. Not sure if you are looking for specific 8mm long - these are about 11mm (I have a Milled slide and they work fine)
  9. Id say polish that mag brake too just to make it a bit slicker. When I got my first S2 (It was one of the first few delivered) the mag brake had some roughness and pits in it. I polished it to a mirror shine and have never had an issue with it. I also 2nd the concerns of others with the 16rd mags.
  10. The TP9SFX didn't have a plate that worked with the optics that share the Alpha 3 footprint. Rivals #6 plate will work, but for some reason they removed the 2 support tabs that mate with the little recesses on the bottom of your optics...therefore you have 2 screws taking all of the force every shot. These plates keep the 2 support tabs and come with some better screws to ensure you don't yeet your optic across the range.
  11. Same, except mine was on a Texas star lol made it rough
  12. I did have it blinking once on me and then died on a stage, but that was due to battery dying. I hadn’t realized the shorter battery life on these. I just change the battery more often now
  13. Is this just from taking a picture? I’ve never seen a dot look like a straight line or a line of dots before….
  14. Good info here ☝☝☝ I sell and buy gear on Sideline Swap and got a 1099 report from them this year which was never a thing.
  15. Ghost makes one and Black Scorpion is supposed to be releasing one soon as well. There are a few others too.
  16. They are located in Canada, I’m guessing shipping times are longer.

    The Dark side edition comes with a plate that has sights on it and a spot for an optic.

    I have two of those too lol, figured why not.
  19. Picked it up today. Really nice pistol for the money. One of the best out of the box triggers I have ever felt. Let me reference that with, my main competition guns are tricked out Shadow 2’s with ALL the trigger work done to them and this one besides pre travel is just as nice if not a touch better (no DA first pull). Ive got 2 TP9SFX guns with the Freedomsmith triggers and trigger work done and this factory trigger feels better! Freedomsmith gets rid of the pre travel so once I do that with this trigger it’s going to be outstanding.

    I grabbed one. Super nice for a plastic gun, and the trigger is outstanding for an out of the box OEM trigger
