BladeTech doesn't have one yet. CompTac and Vedder do.
The CompTac will probably be the best bet. Midway has them for $60.

I just ordered a Plate from maple leaf to put a RMR on mine. Installs ok a little high as the slide cut doesn’t seem as deep. Haven’t had a chance to shoot it though to verify functionalityI will be curious how the P322 runs with that setup. The RMR is 1.2 oz + the weight of the plate makes it a heavier combo than a traditional RMSc optic. Most run from 0.4 - 1.0 oz. I was worried that the HS407K might be too heavy at 1.0 oz with cheap bulk ammo.

I ordered one from Black Scorpion Gear. Well made and does a good job.
It’s discrimination I tell you. They don’t make lefty holsters.

Amazon has some in the $40-$50 range. But if you are going that route you might as well pay an extra $20 and get a real one. I’m looking for one too, but I’m a lefty so it’s a bit harder. I plan to wait for Black Friday discounts next month and get a Vedder or CompTac. I’m done with cheapo crap holsters. I have a whole bin full of them.

Do do most people just change out the plastic guide rod for a metal one and keep the flat spring?
I think if people are going to change it, they change everything.
If the gun is a Gen4 or Gen5, then an adapter is usually installed so that a Gen3 type rod can be used. -
Does anyone happen to know which optic with the RMSc footprint has the biggest window?
I plan to acquire a P322 soon and will put an optic on it. I was thinking about the HS407K, but was wondering if there was something with a bigger window available that would cycle reliably.
Thanks.

Hello, no light and no sights for me. I do use a tungsten guide rod on my G17. Thanks, Eric
This is what I do too. I use the Carver thick tungsten rod which required me to switch to the Wolff recoil springs. I also got the non-MOS version so I could Mill the slide to mount the dot all the way back. I prefer it set up this way. -
You can also send it back to Glock and they’ll refresh all the internals for free and give it an inspection too. Since it is pretty old, and it is going to be used for CCW.

A few of my blasters
Very nice, now a couple of questions if you don’t mind.
Do you have a favorite?Which one sees the most range time?
Seems like it would be a difficult decision as to which 1 or 2 to grab when heading to the range, unless they are each more purpose driven rather than acquired over time “just because”…
That set could make a calendar with each gun featured in a pic for each month. -
This thread reminds me that I need some better cold, and wet weather gear.

When you get tired creating fake matches, stages and shooters in the PractiScore app, take a look at the PractiScore Log app which is specifically created to run drills https://community.practiscore.com/t/practiscore-log-app-info/215
and then more - https://forums.brianenos.com/topic/298342-best-android-tablet-for-practiscore-log/?do=findComment&comment=3299026I didn’t know about it either, thanks.

Thanks Kurt. I will order a replacement when I can find one, but it’s good to know I can run the gun in the meantime without doing any damage.

I pulled my new 3000 apart to clean it out & lube it up & the o-ring from the firing pin retaining pin came out in pieces. I have an AR extractor o-ring that looks like it'll fit, but does it go on the shaft of the pin, or in the groove on the head of the pin?
Thanks.
Does anyone know if this o-ring is "essential" or "optional"?
What does it do?

Is this part really necessary?
I decided to clean my Stoeger M3K shotgun since it finally stopped working, and when I took apart the bolt, the firing pin retaining pin O-ring was split and destroyed. What does this o-ring really do? Do I have to have it? I finished cleaning and assembled the shotgun without it, but before I take it out and shoot it I was wondering if I "HAVE" to have that part or is it possibly optional?
Thanks,
Cuz

I’m getting excited to try trap shooting as my winter sport up here in New England.

Not to mention the potential for gun malfunctions with underpowered ammo.

I wouldn’t mind being a GM in name only, but don’t you have to switch to PCC for that? I never shoot anything but local matches, and only a few a year at that, so my classification doesn’t mean anything to anyone but my son. As long as I stay one level ahead of him I am good to go for all the household banter…

Just clamp it in a vise and hit it with a hammer and punch
Just be sure it ain't got no bullets in it cus ya know,,, it's a sig
I too would like a decent sight pusher for the P365.
Every time any home gunsmith project starts with "just clamp it in a vise", things go downhill from there...

Surely you're kidding. Cleaning your gun takes very little time and I shoot plenty. What's plenty? 4-5 days a week plus matches. Around 40,000 rounds per year. If time spent making your gun work correctly is reducing your shooting time you are not shooting enough anyway. What a joke.
I sure wish I had that kind of time to shoot, but I don’t, so I have to make trade offs. My gun runs fine when it’s clean, and it runs the same way after 1,000 or 3,000 and equally well after 8,000 rounds. I can’t tell the difference.
Maybe you need a more reliable gun if you have to keep it so clean just so that it runs well.
I’m kidding again, let’s not let this thread derail just because some of us actually enjoy cleaning guns and some of us don’t. I have a friend who is always cleaning a gun, because he says it relaxes him in the evenings, when others maybe sit down and watch tv before going to bed.
To each his own.

Maybe not....but it made the rifle shoot better.
Touche. I definitely can't argue with that.
Maybe that's why I suck at the precision shooting sports and tend to gravitate towards the big easy targets like USPSA and Knock-down steel...

Clean your gun as often as possible. There is no downside to cleaning but dirt can cause ejection issues and generally gum up the works. Especially with 1911/2011 guns they run terrible when dirty. Those guns need clean oil always. There is zero upside to running a dirty gun.
I disagree.
The downside to cleaning your gun, is that you just wasted that time when you could have been doing something else, like shooting.
The upside to running a dirty gun is that you didn't waste time cleaning it, when you could have been shooting it.

With that "said" I'm a bit surprised.....but not really that shooters would only clean after an equipment failure. That opens a box of questions ????
I was taught that cleaning was part of shooting . My teacher held 9 national records during his life time. Thanks Dad !
I doubt that any time he spent cleaning made him a better shooter. I wonder if he spent all that "cleaning time" practicing, maybe he would have many more than 9 national records. But, he'll never know, because he wasted valuable practice time cleaning his guns.
Obviously my above comments are in jest. Congrats to your Dad on his accomplishments, and things are very different at that level. Me, I'm a hack just out to have fun, and cleaning guns just isn't fun to me. Many guns don't "need" to be cleaned regularly to function, and there are others that do. It's usually the shooter that needs to clean the gun, not the gun needing to be cleaned.
I specifically shoot guns like Glocks, and Revolvers BECAUSE they run just fine with minimal cleaning. I also have an SVI in the safe that I shot for about 3 years without cleaning it. Just a little oil on the slide every now and then. At some point I transitioned to Glocks, and tossed the SVI in the safe, dirty of course, and it's been sitting there untouched for at least 15 years. I'm confident, that I could pull it out, put a few drops of oil on the slide and it would run just fine.

How’d you like tungsten gr compared to stainless version? I’m not a fan of the 15 on spring and seems to bounce a bit for me when the slide closes. Maybe poor grip but trying to decide if I just go away from the tungsten gr and tune with springs ?
I noticed a difference and like it. I have their thick tungsten rods in my 17 and the extended one in my 34. It's a noticeable difference. Carver is having a Labor day sale now, normally it's 20% off all Carver branded stuff. I try very hard to stay away from their website when these sales are going on because I always end up buying too much stuff.

Cool. I just picked up a P322 today. I pulled a 407K off one of my other pistols and mounted it. I hope to get it to the range this week.
