I just started out with a new 22lr conversion on my Elite Limited large frame. I noticed that I had to remove the magwell to get the mags to fit. Has anyone out there trimmed the baseplate to fit with a magwell? I'm getting intermittent light strikes, and I am using the factory limited hammer spring. This seems to happen a lot with Winchester ammo. The extractor also does not seem to grab well enough. When I try to clear a live round from a light strike the extractor is almost always not able to pull it out. It seems to not have any problem in pulling out fired casings, but i'm sure that it is just barely grabbing on to the rims. The slide has a very noticeable drag for the last 1/3 of slide travel, so it looks like I'll need to do some polishing.

4.0 with a 165 sounds about right. 3.5 is what I use with a 180 grain plated, and is the lowest charge that will cycle for me in a factory pistol, like a glock.

Yes officer, my 5.7 magazines are all pre-ban!

I wonder if EAA is savvy enough to ever monitor this thread...

I run the Henning 10.75, which works reliably for me for both major and minor loads.
I have several of the taylor freelance extended basepads. They are not as nice as the Henning pads. If you want less hassle, I would go with Henning. The locking screw on the TF has to be backed out several turns or else it will hit the factory magwell and not seat.

Hmmm... I'm sure there are 1000's of ways to sneak or mail in power and primers from the US. You could break down a press into individual parts and mail them in unrecognizable groups. How about a Folgers coffee can filled with Clays? Or a t-shirt bedazzled with primers.
It seems to be almost universal in Latin America, that ammo "manufacturing" is forbidden.

You're the man!

My magwell screw mysteriously disappeared. I don't see it listed as a replacement part. Does anyone know what what size screw this is?
Thanks!!!

I find it very encouraging that Brazil allows our favorite toys. If you look at most other countries in Latin America, like Peru for example does not allow civilians to own any caliber larger than .380!!!

I would definitely get some shooting experience with it before changing anything. That should give you a better perspective on what needs to be upgraded.

I'm using the safariland 014. I haven't tried any other race holster, so I don't have any comparisons. I do feel like the safariland holds my elite limited securely. My biggest concern/distraction that would drive me crazy is the feeling that my pistol could easily fall out of the holster. The one drawback for the 014, is that it only adjusts down to a 5" barrel, so the limited elite does not fit down flush on the muzzle holder. You have to cut one of the side adjustment legs to get it to adjust down properly.

I always call the Stoeger shop before ordering. I would bet they lose business over the online stocking misinformation.

You would have given your self away so much quicker if you said "I've been working with the guys at EAA".

pfcchambers, thanks for your info about selecting the long trigger. I have been struggling to decide, since the standard trigger seems slightly short to me. I also wear a large glove, and was hesitating in ordering the long henning trigger thinking that it might be too long for me. My hands are about the same as yours, and my personal preference is for a longer trigger.

I think he lucked out. The blued is a nicer match wth the limited. At least someone benefitted from EAA's bumbling. Too bad it couldn't have been all of us!

Unless it involves your health!

Could it spoil our longshot of a chance of someone calls in and asks about it?
-
My order status is still showing "pending"
-
Anyone tried copying grips with a 3d printer?
-
I just couldn't resist. I've been needing a longslide upper in 9mm anyways.
-
Interesting. I may get one for my limited. If the clash is too annoying, I could just refinish it in a more matching color.

I ran across a so called "witness hunter pro". Sounds nice if it weren't in camo.
-
P.S. This is for the witness limited. I'm not sure what else would fit.

Just a heads up. If anyone here is a leftie, midway has the Bladetech Pro-series kydex speed rig in foliage green, olive drab, and dark earth for $21.25. There is only one of each color in both ASR and Tek-loc, and they are all left handed. If I were even remotely good at shooting left hand, I would have bought one.

Does anyone know where you can find replacement locking clips for the tanfo 22lr conversion magazine? I happen to have several mags with missing clips, and would hate to have to buy new mags when all I need is the little metal clips. I must have somehow pulled them off before realizing that they are necessary!
