    Sig P320

    More info on the slide/sight combo. The Sights are Dawson Precision. The Rear sight is for an XD, and the front is a standard, fiber optic "P" series Sig sight. You'll need to run at least a .195 front with the XD rear setup. As far as the slide goes... it's not even a stock slide. Robert gets these special from Sig, and they don't have the relief milling inside. That allows them to be milled down from the top, whereas if you tried this with the stock setup you would cut through the top. Basically what he does is swap-out your stock slide to one of these if you want it milled to accept the XD adjustable sight.

    Here's a quick pic from today's range session, and I've got this baby all dialed in. I was switching between 124 and 115 grn, and decided to really make it dead nuts perfect with the 115 grn S&B ammo since I have about 4K rounds of it. This is a 5 round group at 15 yards, 2-hand standing (no support). The group should actually be smaller, as I was shooting at an Orange, 1" shoot-n-see dot. The last round hit what was left of the dot and created the big rip on the Right side of the paper. Note to self, when shooting for groups next time, just use a MARKER so this doesn't happen again!!! Grip work by me, sight/slide/bead blasting by Robert Burke.

    Great catch on the Technique. I remember Jerry Miculek saying the same thing about keeping a finger in front of the trigger guard when he shoots "these lighter polymer guns." Here's the video, He's got some great slow motion footage showing the difference in recoil between that and bad technique against a grid. I noticed I have been putting my thumb on the takedown lever, too, but have never done the combination of that with the finger in front of the trigger guard. Alma, you won't be the ONLY one working on that this week my friend!!!
  4. A common Glock online store sells a replacement backstrap kit for the Gen 4 Glocks for about $25 + shipping. You can pick these P320/P250 frames up for about $40 + shipping. I can actually change the frame on my P320 faster than I can install a large beavertail backstrap on a Glock (due to how you have to bang that stupid pin in there!) One is a small plastic part, and the other is a larger plastic part. I think it's correct that they are just "Parts" though, and not the "Gun", ie: serialized part. I'm sure this will get ruled, appealed and re-ruled again in the future!

    When it left, it was 6 lbs., 14 oz. When it got back, it was 4 lbs., 8 oz (only 150 or so rounds through it before it left) 3 pull average on both.

    I still need to have trigger work done on it (it's at 6 Lb currently) but in USPSA competition I don't feel that I am worse off from the CZ because it's a crisp and short trigger. I think you will absolutely LOVE the gun after some trigger work. I thought the trigger was "pretty good" in stock condition, but after it came back from Robert Burke, I was absolutely amazed by the trigger!!!

    A 2-tone, optics ready would be next on my list!!!

    The Polymer Sig uses on these is pretty tough, so if anything it would feel MORE aggressive than grip tape. On the carry model (P320C) I actually knock it down since it's so aggressive that carrying it next to bare skin would be painful.

    Alma, Is the 13 lb standard, or are you using it for reloads? I would like to give one of these a try as well, but didn't know which spring to get. Any suggestions?

    Where would you put this texturing in terms of aggressiveness when compared to Hogue's textures (checkered, piranha, chainlink)? Unfortunately I don't have any experience with any of Hogues textures. I can tell you that the polymer Sig uses is different than Glock's, so the same texture feels more aggressive with the Sig than any Glock I own.

    Does cutting the coils off help only if you are running some lower powered loads, or does it do something for full power, say 115 gr S&B ammo, too? I remember reading that link saying that it helped keep the sights from bouncing so much, but didn't know what kind of ammo they were running or if you noticed any other benefits? The trigger left my house at 6 lbs. 14 oz, and returned at 4 lbs. 8 oz. and super smooth. I've only had it out to the range once since the work was done, but it's growing on me pretty quick. As long as it's functional, it doesn't have to be pretty!

    Here's the Sig P320 Robert Burke (The Sig Armorer) and I did. Work Done: Robert - Bead Blasted Slide/Trigger/Adjustable Sight work (XD Adjustable Rear/Stock P Series Fiber Optic Front) Tactical Texture - Texture work Here are some better pics of the finished product: The finished product is pretty much perfect for me, but I might have to try cutting 3 coils off that recoil spring like alma did just in case!
  13. Thanks. The Frame Flat texturing was just a popular option I wanted to show with this frame.
  14. Here are some better pics of those adjustable sights on the P320 collaboration Robert Burke and I did. Texture work: Tactical Texture and Triggers, LLC. Slide/Trigger/Sight Work: Robert Burke. I can not tell you how happy I am with this P320 now!!!
  15. @Joe D (or anyone), Have you ever measured the difference in trigger pull weight before and after modifying that spring tab? I'm just wondering how much weight that takes off the pull?
