Buy the EGW mag catch. He makes one that sits a bit higher, forcing the mag higher. I found that resolved my trojan 40 issues.
-
Nice to see some more choices on the market!
-
Call them. Order their own safety which fits their trigger components and doesn't bump into anything.

Avoid cardio for the time being, it will rob your strength and mass gains. Find a good protein source, i.e. muscle milk or similar product. Avoid soy based protein as it is estrogenic.

Squats, Deadlift, Bench. Abs. Eat.

What's the trigger pull on it?
-
It is not a safety i.e. series 80, it is not a fire control part as those items are.
If I were to build up a CDP gun on a springer frame would i need to install an ILS, I don't think so.
How many shooters at last years nationals were shooting with an illegal gun?

when i had trojans, mine ran best with 10mm tripp mags and a length of 1.185" i use a 180 TC lead moly bullet, billy bullet, the SNS lead cast has the same profile. If i ran a round nose, this was also the maximum length, any longer and the bullet interfered with the slide stop.

Maybe they could show the super squadders taping targets and resetting steel. I need proof of that stuff actually happening.

Frank,
I use about .004 crimp on my pistol calibers. Use the very end of the case and use the fine ends of the calipers. your case should not look like a 30-30 winchester. too much crimp and taper then..

Change it out, it is not a standard feature for the 1911 design.
How many shooters have added a smith and alexander MSH with the integral magwell to their gun after removing the old one? alot.... It is not a safety.

As a board certified podiatrist who deals with all foot and ankle problems.
try the cortisone injections first. I do a series of two (two weeks apart) have you wear proper shoes and ice the area, i do a third if i think i need it after a month or two.
Generally i see an 75% response, out of the hundreds of surgeries i do a year maybe less than 10 are to excise neuromas...
You can follow others advice if you choose.

Good luck. Your Rehab is the most critical part. Follow you PT's advice and devote as much of your time that you can. You'll be shooting in no time.
-
for the price and ease of use. just add a magwell...the STI Spartan. 500$ less than anything you can whip up.

Solo. Least amount of smoke with lead or moly bullets. I've shot it with billy bullets and SNS for the last 3 years with good luck.

The open and limited mags have really hit their theoretical capacity limit. I can't see someone coming up with a new spring and or follower basepad combo that is going to give 23 or more rounds in a 140 mag for .40cal., or 31 to the open mag. Unless someone comes up with a mag without a spring and uses some other device to lift the rounds up.

My pet load for a .38 is a 158 gr lead bullet and 4gr of tite group. you won't even need the comp, though it works well for .357 loads.

I recently watched a video of an RC jet plane doing over 300mph. the thing was a screamer.
-
SB brass will not routinely fit all the way in a dillon gauge. sometimes federal doesn't as well. they have all run fine in my guns.
-
I've had anywhere from 3 mos to over a year for a custom build. YMMV.
-
i would load the larger calibers on a single stage press, or just use a neck sizing die.
-
Just purchase good dies, Hornady's new dies work well, forsters are always good.
6 or so loadings on a case with the win mag is about it. It has a large case volume and high pressure.

I never buy tuned mags, i have tried but they weren't any more reliable than what i can do.
If you can polish and adjust your feedlip dimensions you are good to go. Mag bodies that are out of spec get sent back. All of my 140 mags hold 21, with most at a 21 reloadable. I've never had mag issues at any major match. To each their own.
Maybe I should send my mags to you?
Sure 250$ for my time for each mag.. that's my usual hourly rate. Honestly, i just can't see spending the money on tuned mags. Hell, i even bought a mag a couple of years ago at nationals, an sv tube and bolen parts from Derek, J. at millenium. It ran perfectly with no special tuning needed.

precautions for achilles tendon?
in Physical Training
Posted
Patients who are post rupture of the achilles can expect to get to 85% of the prior strength with rehab. You essentially loose a portion of the muscle and tendon strength.
I've repaired anything from an avulsion off of the calcaneus, to rupture of the tendon substance itself and complete tears to the muscle. the first and and the latter do the best. The tendon can handle transient loads of up to 13000 lbs, when disease sets in, i.e. tendonosis it will rupture at loads not even 20% of that.
I have had not one athlete get back to pre rupture athletic levels. But you should be able to shoot, just look at all the fat guys and bad knees out there.
