  1. A snap cap wouldn’t keep it out of battery to let the trigger actuate. I believe he’s saying he uses it as an alternative to the cardboard in the breech face method
  2. I am not a binge watch kinda guy, but i binge watched it. Loved it.
  3. My experience with Cheelys has been that it's a drop in part on a STI frame as well...
  4. I would think a Safariland 5197/5198 would fit. I had a safariland designed for a STI Edge and was able to confidently use it with an eagle and 1911's as well. You might still have to adjust the tightness, but would work for both better than a RHT double layer holster. Your best bet is to get two guns with the same profile.
  5. They’re labeled M. Not sure if true medium or something different. My Glock mags are fine with them. They were sent to me by the manufacturer
  6. Good info. Im in the same boat with the TTI guide rods. Definitely need something lighter. Does anyone stock these or do you have to order direct from wolff?
  7. 40cal mags are likely going to have a spacer welded into the back which will keep a 1.18 oal round from fitting the mag. I cannot speak to the sig mags specifically, but in general that is the case. They are designed for factory length 40 rounds.
  8. I’m loading 124 Everglades concave base fmj at 1.15. You can catch them on sale and they’re comparably priced to blues and the like.
  9. I never had any issue with Wilson 47d or etm .45 mags for 40. I gradually shifted to the Tripp 10mm mags for the “40 minor” reasons stated above. But if you have .45 mags on hand, they’ll most likely work with your 40.
  10. I run my gen 5 out of holster s that existed before gen 5. I have 3. All work fine with the gen5 guns.
  11. I’ve been using the black yikes connector. I like it better than the tti. Still playing around with it though.
  12. Also of note, there is a subforum dedicated to airsoft. You can probably find the info you are looking for there. https://forums.brianenos.com/forum/216-airsoft/
  13. after breaking my 3rd one, i gave up on the idea of airsoft as a legitimate training aid. That being said, in the OP's situation, I'd probably reconsider it.
  14. I had the big hands version and it was definitely heavier than the limcat magwell. My akai limited gun is right at 40 oz with a plastic grip and limcat magwell... which is just about perfect for me.
  15. Both my dpp’s on My g5 17’s show wear on the casing. I don’t notice it behind the gun, but it’s absolutely happening.
  16. Any hi capa is going to be similar. None are going to be close in weight.
  17. I think it is personal preference. I have giant hands and generally prefer less of a "big hands" specific magwell.
  18. I don't think anybody is doing it better than SVI.
  19. There's a clean/new looking .40 Trojan in the classifieds...
  20. I have this issue too with one of my guns. It seems to be mag specific combined with the specific gun. I.e. I KNOW mag 4 is going to cause me issues with my match gun and 23+1 in the gun. Mag 2 is going to work fine at 23+1 and mag 4 is going to work fine in my practice gun. I need to load up my problem mags to capacity and let them sit for a bit to see if the spring will set and allow that extra fraction of space to allow reliable feeding across all the mags/guns.
  21. You can pick up a used Trojan in .40 for well below your budget. Outside of the tiny uspsa circle, nobody wants a .40 and values can be had. I found one in a pawnshop for less than $800 not too long ago.
  22. Yeah. Sell the 47ds and buy ETM’s or other competition suitable mags.
  23. Hoping JJ has success with a beretta open gun... but honestly would not be surprised if he pulls a KC/Max and has a 2011 "beretta" open gun built eventually.
  24. I've heard JJ Racaza talk about using a jump rope for GPP and footwork.
