Hardly anyone locally is using the bladetech anymore for stock 2 or stock3. The Ghost stinger is roughly in the same price range..but has a solid aluminum hanger and is more adjustable. I have had the BT, Ghost, Ghost stinger, CR speed and even the DAA racemaster...I prefer the ghost products. The Ghost ulitimate fits the large and small frame guns with the square trigger guard. (Open, LImited, Standard, Production)
Where did you get a Stinger with a solid aluminum hanger. The one I just looked at has a plastic hanger that attaches to the belt, but the plate attached to the holster is aluminum. Is that what you mean?

Looks like a new safety is available to at least some people: http://www.grandpower.eu/en/kategoria-17-clanok-255-detail-hmatnik-sport-#ad-image-0
Also, the new k100s appear to have a different take-down method, more like a Glock: http://www.grandpower.eu/en/kategoria-16-clanok-138-detail-k100-x-trim-#ad-image-1

Except for 1050s, Dillon is getting caught up on presses. Many of my press orders have been coming back from Dillon as in stock!
Or at the most, they'll ship within a few days.
Any idea on the 1050 timeline?
-
The profile is pretty much the same as the MG JHPs. I load mine at 1.145 for my k100, and they shoot well.
-
Don't worry, the seller will cover shipping on his dime.
-
Mostly, Solo 1000
Sometimes, n320 and WST.
Good results will all of them.
-
Gotcha. I was trying to get a response from Century to make sure they would send me mags with the new follower design.
-
How has the Stinger held up? I've read some complaints that it works itself loose after you get it adjusted and that some of the screws stripped out relatively easily when you tried to keep it from coming loose.
-
Well, I'm trying to give my money to Century (at the ridiculous $40/mag price), but they refuse to respond to e-mails. I guess they are making enough money selling other stuff to not worry about it.

Ramshot Comp works well to, very clean out of my 9. Cleaner than S1K.
4.2 Gr
124 MG-JHP
1.125
Mixed Brass
CCI
129PF
I have no input on the 40SW.
Somewhere on here, I saw Doug Carden compare the MG JHPs to the XTP HPs. On Ramshot's website, the max load they have for the 124gr XTP is 3.0gr at 1.060" OAL. They also have a max load of 3.5gr for the 124gr Golden Saber bullet at an OAL of 1.145"; is everyone loading this far over the published data for this powder?

Dave,
How can we tell the new mags from the old ones? Are these the ones with a different color (red?) follower? Also, did you receive my e-mail?
-
Guess we have to wait on Century. Might try bothering them again.
-
Just heard from J&G: they got nothin'.
-
From the website: "ESTIMATED SHIPPING TIME FOR BULLETS(COMPONENTS) IS 18 PLUS WEEKS." (Their caps, not mine.)

Midway still has Fiocchi small pistol primers available: in packages of 1500 & 12,000. Prices come out to around $25/1000 before hazmat.
-
Still gotta shoot and see. They might be fine.

Hey, Mike. Totally agree about the mic; my good tools are 400 miles away, though. I do think that, statistically, I should have had a few .355s with the calipers.
-
Re-zeroed with a different tool. Lead is still coming out at .356 and .452.
Now with the MGs, I'm getting .354 and .3545. Just need to load 'em up and see how it works first.
-
Website for MG says they're .355" diameter.
-
Checked and remeasured some lead 9mm bullets I had (they all measured .356") and some lead .45 (all measured .452").
-
Just received my case of 124gr JHPs. Measured 25 of them. Not a single one measured .355" or above in diameter. I rotated and measured each bullet at least twice. Every single one came out .354 or .3535 on my calipers.
Kinda disappointed. Anyone else have a similar issue?
-
Don't tell me that, man. You're gonna hurt the wallet.
I'll only ever load 9 and 45. Don't want to worry about trying to shove a primer into a crimped 9mm. Swage rod on the press would solve that. Primer depth control sounds nice too.
-
Were you 1050 owners concerned about the 1 year warranty? What could break or happen after that year that would make me wish I had a 650 with a lifetime warranty?
CAI-imported Grand Power K-100..?

Gp6 had a different slide profile than the newer k100s. A k100 with the new slide profile won't fit a gp6 holster without modification. (E.g. Cutting off the very bottom of the holster)
