My sti edge barrel is ion bond coated black. Held up for 2 years so far.

And it'll go 163 when it hits 90*... be verymindful with WST. It's a good powder but very reverse temperature sensitive, at least my batch is.
@TennJeep1618 remember someone that went to Limited Minor at the 2016 Texas Open? I do...
Last year I chronod ammo loaded with WST taken from my basement at about 60-65 degrees. Then I chronod identical ammo that I put in the sun in a closed jar for a while. It was pretty hot to the touch and I had left it in the sun long enough to make sure the powder was hot. I saw no noticable difference in velocity. It could have been a couple FPS lower but was so close to the cooler rounds that i couldn't tell any meaningful difference.

I load 200gr blue bullet with 4.1gr WST. 1.180 oal. Makes like 172 pf. I use cci primers but I don't think that matters much.

Damnit. Why Didn't I think of mounting it off the ceiling instead of the bench.

I just got a LabRadar last week and the manual talks about bluetooth and I can see it on my phone, but they won't pair.
BTW, so far I like it and took a bit to figure out how to get a new string without powering off the unit.They keep saying an app is coming for bluetooth. I asked them about it (again) and they replied with this in February...
Thank you for checking back in with us, we are still coming out with an App for Iphone and Android, they are finishing up the Android version now and will hopefully be released any week now, but the iphone will be released soon after, but do not have a firm timeframe since they took much longer than planned for the android version.

I'm using the Hornady sizing die that has the thread that sticks way up over the die. It interferes with the powder drop. There's also a bit of contact between the powder die hopper housing and the primer tube blast shield.
I may look into a new die set to make it work eventually
I had that and just cut the stem off the sizing die.

I have some of these. Not sure of weight. http://www.duragrips.com/catalog/category/5343434

Sorry in advance for resurrecting an old thread. I'm a new Canik TP9SFX owner, and a new member to the forum. Thanks for all the great information on this thread. Just a quick question, I'm hoping to get some clarification. I've read reports that the stock Gen 3 Glock 17 guide rod assembly works as a drop in part for the TP9SFX, but I've also read reports that the Gen 4 to Gen 3 adapter is needed. Is the adapter only needed when using an aftermarket non-captive guide rod? Or is the adapter needed no matter what when using any Gen 3 guide rod assembly? I'm just looking to lighten the stock recoil spring weight.
Additionally, reading on another forum, someone was using a P226 solid guide rod and 15# Wolff spring. Has anyone tried this setup?
I tried a p320 guide rod and Wolff 1911 recoil spring. The spring is too long. Bought springs for a 4" 1911 but haven't had time to try that yet.
-
Check the angle of the collator too.
-
I ordered some recoil springs for a 4" 1911 to try on the springer P320 rod.
-
I did change the striker spring. Seems to function OK. Hopefully it ignites primers reliably once I test it.
I'm thinking my Wolff spring is the problem with recoil assembly. The spring is still going to sit in the same spot regardless of what guide rod I have. What recoil spring are you using on the Glock guide rod? A Glock spring?

13 pound 1911 recoil spring on a P320 steel guide rod like from Springer (no the X-Five length, regular P320)
You'll need the regular length mags, https://gunmagwarehouse.com/century-arms-canik-tp9sa-tp9sf-tp9sfx-9mm-10-round-magazine.html
they are mecgar so nice quality.
Most base pad made for a CZ Mecgar mags should fit - here is one: http://shop.springerprecision.com/product.sc?productId=252&categoryId=54
Changed the firing pin/striker spring to a Glock 6#
Awesome triggers on these guns.
A Wolff 1911 spring a p320 recoil rod from Springer doesn't work. The spring clashes before the slide is all the way back.
Those basepads also don't exactly work. They fit the mag body but the plastic retainer plate has a rectangular nub and the CZ base pads have a round hole.
-
Just put a TTI extension on the mag. 1 more finger on it without it being as long as the glock pinky extension.
-
I tested some rounds that were at room temperature then tested the same load after getting them pretty warm in a jar in the sun. I noticed zero difference with the labradar. These were with WST which people say is inverse temperature sensor.
I would bet that the difference in lighting on those two days played more of a part in your perceived difference than the temperature unless you were using a chrono coffin.
What kind of lighting is on your indoor range and do you have any sort of auxiliary lighting on your chrono?

Rick contacted me yesterday and said he had another batch of these.

Dawson ezoff +0 work on 10rd mags.

I emailed him just before new year and he had no mounts but planned to make some more after the holidays.

yes it is...the striker spring coming in the competition spring kit is a 2lbs
Whatever you say dude. You obviously know everything.
-
That isn't a 2lb striker spring. Zev labels then different. It's like a wolff 4lb.
-
-
I could never get a 4lb striker spring to run reliably. Try 4.5 or even 5lb.

Try 600+
$420 for ionbond if you send it taken apart.

Thank you. I was wondering if the canik fit the box with those springer base pads on the 10rd flush fit mags.
-
I got a SFX at a match this year and would like to shoot a little production with it. Lots of discussion here about shooting in in CO division but little talk of production specific shooting with it.
My first question is about mags... Anyone have some guidance on what mags and basepads will fit in the box? I live in a 10 round restricted state. I see some 10rd flush fit mags for other Canik guns that sound like they fit the SFX. Anyone know of a basepad to add a little weight and little length that will still fit the box?
My second question is about springs.... What recoil spring weight have you guys found to work with hand loads shooting minor without a red dot on the slide? What other springs are you guys changing out?
New Canik TP9SFx......

No magwells in CO unless something changed when I was not paying attention.
