    I've run a Delta Point Pro on my Staccato P 4.4" with the back up irons for years and its a great setup. 

    Curious - when you use the backup is it only when the dot is not working or do you use them both all/most of the time?

    For guys running the Barsto barrels, did you have to change your OAL?

     

    I had to load RN to 1.08 or 1.09 to get them to pass the plunk test.

    I've had Barsto fit several barrels for  me and never been disappointed.

     

     

     

     

    Have you had them do one for you on an X5 Legion?  If yes, did it make a measurable difference over the stock barrel?   For me, the answer is "no", but I'd love to hear others' experiences.

    ... but one thing Luke stressed before doing any serious accuracy testing was to run 25-30 FMJ, plain jane (WWB) ammo through the barrel/gun before testing my own reloads....

     

     

    Interesting - did he say why?

    It’s just disheartening I want to love this gun but at distance it doesn’t perform like any other gun I have ever ran. Might just sell it all and go shadow 2. 

    That's a totally understandable and legit feeling.   If you're going to go that route, now's probably the best time to do it since you have the least $ and emotion invested in the Sig, and you might start throwing money at it like many of us are.

     

    I moved from CZ Shadow target guns to the P320 Legion platform.   CZs are great guns, reliable, accurate, lots of aftermarket support.   But in the end, three things caused me to move on: the double action trigger on the first shot (yes I know there's lots of guys that mastered it, I just didn't), the difficulty in fully cleaning it (yes I know people have figured it out...), and having to manually drop the hammer on a live round at the "make ready" signal.   Each of those has it's solution, but when I added them up, the lure of the X5 Legion won out.

     

    No regrets owning the CZs, and no regrets moving to this new platform.  Exploring and tweaking and puttering is fun for me, and although I've spent too much money trying to get it as accurate as I want (taking up reloading thinking I needed a special load, buying a Barsto Barrel that turned out to make very little difference, and now buying a Gray Guns slide/barrel combo).    But, I've certainly spent more money on stupider things, so I take comfort in that!

    Awesome!  

    Looking forward to some detailed reports once you've spent some time with it!

     

    👍

     

    If it doesn't transform me into a Master class shooter, well, I'm gonna be MAD!   🤓

    I'm truly glad that the MAX is going in for a Bar-Sto Match Grade/Gunsmith Fit barrel next month. 

     

    Don't get your hopes up.  I had Barsto custom fit a barrel to mine and it made very little difference.   I would say that it was a waste of a lot of money for me and would not do it again.

     

    My understanding is that the accuracy issues are less about the barrel and more about the slide.

  8. Three local clubs shoot USPSA regularly: Rochester Brooks, Genesee Conservation League (aka GCL), Ontario Rod And Gun.    GCL shoots indoors in the winter, the other two are outside, so April-ish through November-ish

     

    I suggest you go to at least watch some matches, and I guarantee someone will come up and talk to you about shooting one.   It's what I did a few years ago, and you just learn by participating and *everyone* is friendly and will help you out.

    But will it fit in any holsters. These gas pedals are cool, yet if they only work in open style holsters their not useful in uspsa. 

     

    I have the non - generic "thumb rest generic" on my Legion, and it fit fine in a Red Hill Tactical holster.
