Curious why an Extra Strength firing pin spring would help...I would think the opposite......
-
I guess not............
-
Shooters Connection seems them also, 2different styles....seem ok....lesson learned on the screw placement. Thanks!!!

Eric......just placed the order...thanks to all....frustrating..........

Have a relatively well used 9 mm STI Trubor. Started having intermittent light primer strikes as of late.
shootng same minor load as I’ve run through my limited pistol...... shot thousands of the same load...CCI small pistol, BB 147,N320.....any thoughts.......oversize firing pin ?....treating symptoms not problem??
.......
Thanks.

I wouldn't bother with the 147 for major,
or the plated RN.
Stick with 124 gr JHP's - much better - use 6.5 - 0 7.2 grains WAC
at 1.16" OAL.
Jack...any deviation between 124 JHP and RN?......thinking RMR to be specific......Thanks...getting into the Major 9 world!

I'm using a Variable 7# using a Shock Buffer in a Trubor minor and major open gun.
I’m I understanding your running the #8 variable for Minor and Major?.....
life so what Minor loads are you using?.....Thanks

I am suffering from the Old eye syndrome as well. Purchased a used STI Trubor to experiment with Open shooting.
9mm ....trying minor loads to get used to the whole red dot concept and use some of my current reloading supplies before trying Major loads.
After 3-400rounds through it......I’ve found this thing is a BLAST!!!!.....learning the new Leupold red dot , racker ,comp ..etc...not the finest quality pistol by any means but certainly does the job.......and no more corrective lenses in the Rudy shooter my glasses.....excellent.

I was reading this thread shaking my head....same thing happened to me last week. Used blue Locktite and pre heated the screws..still stripped one screw.
So here are my questions. Is it the screws, the tool or the locking compound???
I use quality torque and Allen wrenches, I just got a new assortment of screws from Shooters Connection and use fresh blue Locktite.
What is the weak like here......removing this screw was a PITA and want to avoid it again as all the screws need to be ground down to fit the frame!
Glad I’m not the only one with this problem.....Thanks!
-
Forgot to ask.......are any of you all using a Shock Buffer in these Trubor minor rounds ?.......running them in my Atlas Titan in 9mm and seems to work well............thanks....
-
Tommy....huge stock of both.....used for Limited Minor. Will try to use some up, then experiment with 9mm Major and try to sell some off.
Im cheap.....apparently an oxymoron for Open class.....lol.
So no one has experience with 6 lb. or 7lb. Variable springs in minor??
Thanks
-
Starting out my learning 9mm Trubor. Attempting to use up some of my supply of N320and Blue Bullet 147RM by starting off with minor....any experiences with recoil springs for these lighter loads. Suggested we’re 6/7 lb. variable springs....any thoughts??
Thanks....this will be and interesting experience.
-
Thoughts on different primers for 9mm Major loads??...been seeing folks using magnum pistol primers and different types of Federal primers.
Im starting to work on my 9mm major load ladder and sincerely hoping my CCI Small Pistol primers will suffice...got a ton of ‘em.
Thanks for any input..........Merry Christmas to all!!!!!
-
I got excited with the topic......meant 124....Sorry.......
-
Wrench.....these are exactly what I was inquiring about......Thnaks!
-
Any experiences with this RMR 124 9mm Multi Purpose Round I see offered??
sure has a good price point for bulk purchases...Thanks in advance......
-
Welcome to the club....probably 20K through my 9mm.....nary a hiccup.....thinking of sending it to Adam for a tune up......next stop Minor Chaos!!!!!
Damn fine Pistol....great company owned by a good guy.......what else does one need?
-
Any of you wise and learned members have experience with the CZ 9 mm open pistols?
Friend sent me a photo of the “ Parrot” finish on a custom open gun and it looked great.
Price with 4 mags and optics seems reasonable.....
Thanks in advance....
-
Thank you all...this is going to be an interesting learning curve...
-
G man.....this is what my understanding is as well......but I’ve got so many B.B. 147 RN I’m trying to use up.....I’m a cheap guy..lol.

Trying not to beat the poor horse to death:
As to the Atlas Chaos in 9mm.....I’m currently loading for my Titan.....I’ve got a very large stock of Blue Bullets 147rn and Vih N320....Would certainly like to work up a load to use in the Chaos to use these supplies up.....currently using 3.3 grns N320 for minor in the Titan.....any thoughts on maximum load using these 2 components in the open gun?...maybe up to 3.5 grns?
Not trying to make Major , just functioning rounds to learn the new pistol......Thanks in advance!!!
