[Who's stoked about the new Tisas Night Stalker 2011?]

Replace the mag catch spring lightens it up a little.  I will probably drill and tap it and put a button on it

[Carry Optics Class - What Red-Dot?]

I have SRO and 507 Comp.  I prefer the 507 comp less cash and they both work great 

[Who's stoked about the new Tisas Night Stalker 2011?]

I've got a 5" Tisas so far so good.  Threw some springs and a firing pin at it and tuned the sear spring from 5 to about 2.5lbs   Dawson Sti magwell fits great.  Irons for now .  

[Barrel porting and velocity]

The 70-80 fps loss I am talking another it before and after same barrel.   So it is showing 8-9 Power Factor loss from 1150fps 115g

 

 

[Barrel porting and velocity]

Friend does cnc slides and barrel cuts at Pew Pew CNC.   I remember him saying that one of his was 70-80 FPS loss. 

[inner belt]

I like an add on ratchet on outer belt with regular inner belt.  Instead of using the inner belt like normal use it like it doesn't work and it slides. When you tighten the outer belt it tightens the inner belt and does not bunch up.  

[Why no 2011’s with classic lines?]

I like Brazos simple designs.  I've seen D2 Customs do some classic looking guns.

I’m admittedly not a gunsmith but I found some things on my prodigy that are not so easily fixed as they were in this thread. Probably has a lot to do with cerakote thickness etc but still.

 EGW ignition kit

Sear would not fit in my frame at all without a lot of sanding in a very confined space and polished the sides of the sear.

17# mainspring barely made a dent in proven ammo with stock FP. I bought a Cheely extended FP to put in but I still thought stock should have worked.

Disconnector took a ton of polishing to fit in the frame.

Hammer strut pin hole is so big that pin just slides through and falls out. Now to order a pin kit and hope it fits through the strut.

 

EGW GUIDE ROD ASSY is practically a press fit in the slide. Takes light taps with a hammer to install and remove.

 

As far as EGW keeping items in stock, forget about it. Been waiting several weeks for an MSH. Thinking about getting stainless and painting it black

 

The factory firing pin spring is extra extra extra strong.    Use a wolf extra firing pin spring or one from a wolf recoil spring pack.  

 

I found out Egw makes two style of sear springs.   I put a Brazos trigger in my Prodigy and later ordered the same kit for the 2011 I'm building  only to get a different style sear spring

[Good Bits??]

Mac RBRT bits

[Limited optic load]

I have a 4.25 prodigy and like 147 reloads with sport pistol .  I also like 150g Federal factory loads in it.   

[Cutting weight out of Cheely E2 Steel Grip?]

I had similar with my 4.25 with Steel Cheely grip.  I picked up the aluminum main spring housing and I like the balance of it like that

[LO thumb rest?]

Major power factor is a huge difference between  open and limited optics in my opinion 

[LO thumb rest?]

Give them a call or email they just had some made when I got one.   They were great to deal with . They called it a 45 degree racker.  I havet had the chance to put it on mine yet to try it out.   

 

[LO thumb rest?]

I will put one up as soon as I get it back.  

[LO thumb rest?]

I got this one from Accuracy X for my Brazos slide.  

[Is Atlas worth the price difference over MPA?]

I think a steel gripped gun is going to make the pistol too heavy for IDPA.  I had a guy shooting an MPA on my squad yesterday and it never missed a beat.  I think those go for $3500ish.  Atlas is very close to double that.  They are very nice guns, but not nice enough to double the cost.  

 You are correct Steel grip would be too heavy for IDPA.   My 4.25 Prodigy was 39ounce with magazine stock grip.   It was too heavy with steel Cheely grip

[LO 2011 - LabRadar and loads today.]

I'm 3.5g sport Pistol. 1.14 Precision Delta 147 Plated    132pf in 4.25 Prodigy

 

150g Factory Syntech went 135pf in the same gun.   

[LO thumb rest?]

It is off my Prodigy 

[LO thumb rest?]

Ive got a Tevo thumbrest to try once I get this one together. I am going to try it out with optic racker or just dryfire with double sided tape before I drill holes in it.  

[Ratcheting Belt]

Don't Velcro the inner belt to itself. Put it underneath itself so it kind of slides . Put outer belt on and tighten with latch. No more bunching 

[8” boot to shoot uspsa]

I like Altra Lone Peak high tops also.  

[? For competitors with </= 2# Triggers..........]

I had similar results with Brazos trigger.  I checked that both legs of the sear are contacting and installed it along with their disconnector.   I haven't touched it. Mine is 2.2lbs with a 19lb hammer spring .  I liked his trigger set up so much I got another one with one of Brazos frames and slides.  Great people to deal with.

@RJH that’s cool.  I love my 4.25.  Thinking about doing a 5” next.  My 4.25 is so well balanced with the Cheely grip that I can stand it on its magwell for an unloaded table start.  An RO wigged out over that and went grab the MD.  He got ranked.  It was a good stage.   

I’ve got a maxed out Rival-S that I’m eager to try too.  Waiting on my Lok brass grips to arrive.   

 

 

I put an aluminum Cheely main spring housing on my 4.25 Prodigy with steel Cheely grip.  It helped it balance a little bit.  I am building a 5" also

I've thought about that but not sure it's allowed in USPSA LO. I'll check on it.

They are legal in USPSA.  Depending on the gun you could do one. 

[Looking for a thumbrest slidelock]

Can you do a frame mount thumb rest?  Make sure your magazine bases limit your magazine from damaging your ejector.
