That is awesome. JP says they have the parts to build our guns but they are just completing their quality assurance testing. So I am just wondering how that is coming along? "While we have the parts in the building to start production, we need more time to complete our quality assurance testing"

Are any of our pro shooters here involved in the reliability testing of the JP5? Can you please tell us how that is going?

I just keep reminding myself how glad I am that they are so diligent at ensuring high reliability before they release a product. It's getting really hard to wait but I think it is going to be a great gun that I will shoot tens of thousands of rounds out of for years to come. March has arrived, and so we wanted to reach back out to all of you eagerly watching for that shipping notification on your JP-5™. In the January update, we used that dangerous phrase “barring anything unforeseen” while honestly expecting to be shipping rifles at this point. That leads directly to another phrase about how “the best laid plans of mice and men oft go astray.” Cutting to the chase, the production schedule for the JP-5™ barrels stretched further than we were promised last month. That has pushed out our internal timetable again. While we have the parts in the building to start production, we need more time to complete our quality assurance testing. This step is just non-negotiable. As much as we want to get these rifles out to you, we need to get the round counts and testing in before we’re confident these rifles will meet our standards. The JP-5™ has been one of the biggest new projects we’ve launched in years. All the testing so far is looking good, and we’re confident in the road ahead, even if it’s a little longer than we’d hoped. We know you’re eager, and we’ve heard from many of you. All we can ask is that you sit tight a little longer. We can all remember some of the crash-and-burn releases over the last decade or two in the firearms industry. We guarantee that the JP-5™ will not be one of them and will be well worth the wait. Thanks again for your patience.

Pacman, in my area the Fiocchi low-recoil slugs have become the standard for 3gun and I am not sure what I would run if I didn't use them. Have you figured out any good alternatives? I wonder what Mr. Kelley is running? I am getting ready to order the Gen12 upper but a little worried about slugs. Thanks

Hey guys thanks for the comments, I really do love the pistol. I do agree that I probably could have made the grip work by lightly sanding off the pricklys. In hindsight, maybe that is what I should have done. I was afraid of messing up something expensive and honestly I underestimated how much it would cost to replace the grip. When SV gave me the quote I already had my mind made up and just did it. Anyway, my loss is your gain and if I can make up a few bucks on the old one it will help. Fowlmouth, thanks for the advice about fitment on a STI--I wondered about that.

Guys this grip was too aggressive for me and I had Infinity put on a less aggressive one. I am thinking about putting this grip up for sale but I have no clue what it is worth. I am not trying to squeeze out every last dollar, I am just wondering what a fair price would be. The 2nd pic is the gun with the new grip. Your advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the info. Your pistol looks great. I think the gold mags will look good with my blaster too.

Glockman, these look fantastic. Please tell me who did the gold PVD so I can get some done. Thanks

That link isn't working for me but I am interested in anything that will keep me cooler. What is it?

Those look interesting. Have you been using these? How well do they work? Do they make you feel noticeably cooler?

Thank you Bill for the good thread and for the helpful response.

Great option for 3 gunners, I had never heard of this. What are my chances of convincing Infinity to integrate this into a new build that they haven't started working on?

26 ounces for my skeletonized X products drum and 20 ounces for the D60

From the directions "It is not necessary to download the D-60 for long term storage. It is designed to be left loaded without any loss of function or degradation"

as is typical with Magpul the quality of construction seems great. It feels very sturdy and rigid. I just finished loading 60 rounds into it. It is great to get so many rounds into such a small package. Is the video I posted above viewable? It seems odd to me that they did not make sure that it was compatible with a receiver as common as Seekins.

I am guessing that a similar brown truck is delivering or has already delivered mags to many of you but I have not seen much online so I thought I would post.

cecil, the blaster looks fantastic! Congratulations! May i ask a few more questions about the TiN? Where did you get it done? Does it provide any reduced friction advantage or is it just an aesthetic improvement? Thanks

Can I ask what the mount is on the RMR? I want to run the same set up T That RMR mount is from JP

Thanks everyone, the information is thread has been super helpful for me. I am going to try to build the mag as described by Eric. Dogtired, good find on that block mag, I am going to pick one of those up as well.

I shoot my 2011 pistol in "outlaw" 3gun Open matches and most of the time no one cares how long the mags are. Sometimes I shoot a glock with a 33rd mag. I would really like a 2011 mag that will hold more than 30 rounds. Are there any options for this?
