There are no forward assist notches on the carrier you chose so the forward assist would be completely useless if you got it.

I have a fat head as well. I found Oakley Tombstones to fit a tad loose. I'd give those a try.

Someone just did an article about barrel lockup (brownells, maybe?). They had a loose fitting barrel in a factory gun and wanted to see if it was a factor. Put gun in a Ransom rest and shot groups. It shot very well. Next the tester pushed on the barrel horizontally, moving it to the end of the "wiggle". Rounds flew a few inches off to the side. Pushed on it again before firing, same spot off to the side. Next he pushed on it in the opposite direction, same size group, but in the other direction. He concluded that the lockup was not as important as the barrel returning to the same spot after each shot. Keep in mind, this was with a rest. When you introduce running and quick movement, I imagine that it's possible the barrel can move out of it's "resting" position.

Oh. Well there you go. I asked them the same thing a little while ago and they told me the same thing they told you. I'm assuming that since they reposted it, it's good to go.

If you look at their facebook page, they just uploaded a video of them shooting a MPX with a 24C

Is it a reduced grip? If so, try loosening your grip. Sometimes there is so much taken off them that the grip flexes under the pressure of your grip.

It is. I had to pull mine apart because it was crooked. You would have to find a sight that has a short base to fit between the ribs of the base and get a much longer countersunk screw. Then hope that you have enough elevation adjustment in the rear sight because it will sit a lot lower than the factory sight.

The 1301T front sight has a screw on it and held onto the "riser" with a nut underneath.

find someone to drill/mill out the front blade. It's plenty long enough.

Leupold VX-6 with the Firedot BDC.

Havent owned any of the ones you listed except the DW PM9. I love it. The front strap checkering really grabs the hand. I could have completely smooth grips and I don't feel like it would make a difference with how well it holds in the hand

Have you looked at Faxon's 11.5"?

never ran them side by side.

I just weighted both. Mine are JP 3.0oz Gutted rifle 1.6oz

Can I have 10% of your ammo budget?

Adam built me a custom for 3gun. It came out perfect and his customer service is top notch. He even emailed me a few months later to make sure I still enjoyed my purchase. A friend was so impressed that he got one too. As for the gun itself, its been amazing. I had one fail to feed after I put in a 7lb spring. Once I went back to something heavier, it's been flawless.

Look at the Leupold VX-6. Great glass and very light weight

Between the 2, I prefer the lighter Micro. It isn't like you are going to be losing the dot between shots. Shooting both eyes open and with minimal bulk around the glass, FOV is still really good even with the smaller glass.

I put 23 in mine. The rounds in the bottom rattle but it's never caused a problem. I use factory guts and CZC pads. I can get you OAL tonight when I get home. I don't have problems with nose dives

G-code XTS. Made to actually fit a 2011 and it works great. I was using a Safariland GLS but after hacking at it to fit, it still felt terrible in the holster. Downside of a one size fits most approach I guess.

burn them

I may eventually do this, but the cost is tricky. I'm worried about sending my whole mag collection (25 or so) in and them getting lost along the way, but breaking them into two lots means double the cost since they seem to price consistently for small lots. Maybe this winter in the off season - I'd like to get my steel grips done too. Shot with them today in a match with my open gun (9mm). They drop free fine and I'd think the slicker inside would make them less prone to feeding issues. I was worried the slick finish (they do feel slick like a Teflon pan) would see me tossing them on reloads but no issue so far... I sent them my CZ Czechmate and about 6 mags at once. Insure the package and be done with it.

can you push from the underside?
