    Pick one an run with it.

    Lol, that’s not always as easy as it sounds with availability the way it is these days. Finding the specific optic you want could be as hard as finding Bullets, powder, or dare I say primers.

    Hello, the 34 does come with a longer magazine release. It is only about 1/16" longer than the standard one. I replaced mine with one from Ghost which is plastic. Glock make one as well but they are hard to find right now. The photo shows all three. Thanks, Eric

    Thanks, the Glock oem doesn't look much longer than the standard release.  I went and ordered the Ghost release so I can test them.  I didn't want to go with an aluminum one, so hopefully between the Ghost, and OEM one will work.

     

  3. My only real experience with a dot on a pistol has been with the Holosun 507 with 2moa dot. It was affordable and a great “intro” to shooting red dots, but as soon as I can find one in stock somewhere I plan to try the 5 MOA SRO. All of my Internet research tells me that the 5-6moa size may be best for USPSA and local falling steel matches. I know the Sig Romeo3 Max is very similar to the SRO, but oddly enough, Sig products just don’t excite me. Probably cuz I’m basically a Glock guy. 

  4. I live in a small town, so when I expect bullets to come in I just stop by and tell them to hold them and not even bother trying to deliver.  Once I get the notice they are in I go and pick them up.  I only live about a mile from the post office so it's convenient, and they are VERY appreciative.

    Hello, the testing I have been trying is with the G45, G17 and G34 all gen 5's MOS. For me the G17 MOS is the winner. It just shoots quicker for me and very flat. I don't use a flashlight and don't see the need for one if you set the pistol up for your loads and shooting style. I am using 124/125 grain bullets at 131-134PF. I am using a Jentra tungsten guide rod for the Wolff recoil springs and Zev adapter. The springs are Wolff 12lb and 13lb(still testing to see what I prefer). Trigger is either a Timney(red spring) or one I did myself. "-" connecter, extended magazine release, Carver brass insert. Red dots are Holosun 507C and an Alpha 3 8MOA. Adapters are C&H Precision and a C-More RTS2 for the red dots. No sights since I don't need them. Factory Glock magazines with either TTI +3, Zev +5 or Arredondo +5. For me the G34 just seems to take a little longer to get back on target and the G45 was a little bit too snappy but I did like the G45 more than the G34 for a carry optic setup. You can take this for what it is worth since I am only a "A" shooter older gent that tries to go fast. Thanks, Eric

    Does the Carver insert extend out too far flor Carry Optics Division?  I don’t know why I thought it did when I looked at it. How much does it weigh?

     

    thanks.

    Hello, I think you will really like the way it fits and how well it installs. Do not over torque the screws. Thanks Eric

     

    Thanks, yeah, I have a torque wrench.  10 ft/lbs right...  :)

     

    I also reached out to them to see if they can mill my G41 for MOS plates.  I put an EGW plate on it that slides into the dove tail, but it's too high.  Not too many places seem to want to mill a G41, not sure why.  I figure I'll go with the MOS for variety since I already have a couple of spare Burris FF3 dots and the MOS plate for it.

     

  7. Damn glad to hear all the positive info.  I just picked up my 4th Holosun (3 of the 507C and a 510C).  They seem to be working for me.  My only complaint is that I wish the dot was bigger on the 507.  I got it thinking the smaller circle/dot combo would be good for steel plates, but the circle is distracting so I just use the dot.  I'm happy with them though.

    I ended up buying a new RL1100 at a local gun shop so I will see how it fits on the bench. 

     I will report back when I'm done with the reloading room remodel. 

     

    Yes, please do report back.  I am trying to decide where to mount my RL1100 as well.  I have a 24" countertop with 8" deep shelves on the back wall about 20" higher than the bench.  I'm wondering if it will fit.  I'm also curious if I'll need a mount or if I should just mount the press to the countertop.  The bench/countertop is 37" from the floor.

     

  9. Back in 2004/2005 I had SV build me a custom sight tracker limited gun.  It was a beauty, and I enjoyed shooting it for a couple of years, then for reasons unknown to me, I started shooting Glocks and found them more comfortable for me to shoot, and I've been shooting them ever since.  I put the SV away and haven't touched it since.  I don't regret that purchase one bit, I still love the gun, I just don't shoot it.  It's still the coolest, most expensive gun I own, and one day my two kids can draw straws to see who gets it.

  10. I tried them almost a year ago, I got a couple of cases of their 9mm 125gr RN. I had to load them much shorter than I was used to, but once I figured that out they were fine and fed reliably in all my guns.  The only reason I don’t buy more is the backlog and one case limit. Heck, I don’t really even mind the wait, I just wish he’d let me order a few cases at a time.

    They’re actually coming pretty close together with my open gun.  Live fire draw is reliably between .9-1s, and reload is solidly at 1.1


    I’d be very happy to get both mine under 2 seconds. Now that winter is winding down I hope to get out and start practicing again. I should have been practicing both over the winter but I never seemed to find the time. 
     

  12. I’ve been using a Vedder LightTuck IWB holster for about a year with my P365 and am very happy with it. I recommend getting it with the claw option to keep the grip tucked towards your body. I also just ordered their ProDraw paddle OWB for range use, but I haven’t gotten it yet. I had a hard time finding a decent OWB holster for it. I wish Blade Tech made one as I like their products.
