Stupid board won't let me paste. Google search Magloc M&P9 thumb rest. A company called Smart Lock Technology Inc makes them

Sweetness!

I'm going to guess that isn't production legal.

I just went to their site (KKM). No pricing. Any idea how much they cost? Should I order direct or is there a better outlet? Thanks

I can't leave anything alone, I have to trick everything out, it's a sickness. Lucky for me pistols and tricking them out is a whole lot cheaper than motorsports (my other hobby). And I want to stay in Production, so I am limited there too.....for my own good. I've been shooting a M&P9 PRO lately and its starting to work pretty good for me. So time to trick it out a bit. I recently had the grip stippled (production legal) and threw the Apex catalog at it too (production legal also). Next step is to get all the guts and slide Titanium nitride or DLC coated (I checked, it's production legal). Before I get everything coated I would like to decide if I'm going to change the barrel, because that would be coated too. Any barrel suggestions? So what would you do, can I do to trick this thing out and remain production legal? Any suggestions? Anything? Everything? Thanks!

Nope, Michigan. But only about 35mi from Ohio.

John emailed me back. Ha says no problem with coatings as long as they don't weigh over 2oz. Not a problem.

The cool thing about Ti nitriding is that it's only 2-3 microns thick. Good heads up on the coating having a potential performance advantage.

Wow! That CORE is trick!

Email sent, thanks for the contact info. The post count/pasting thing makes sense. We'll see what happens once I get more posts. Thanks again guys!

And how did you paste that text in? I'm guessing you didn't type all of that??? For some reason I can't paste on this forum (never had that happen before). Thanks

That's how I looked at it, thanks for the backup. How do I get clarification from NROI (and what does NROI stand for?)? Thanks!

Hey all, new poster. I was shown the way over here for rules clarification. I'm new to USPSA shooting (4 matches so far), not new to shooting. I have been shooting production using a M&P9 PRO...not very impressively. But despite my less than impressive shooting I will not be prevented from one of my favorite past times, tricking stuff out. I can't leave anything alone. Good thing I am shooting production, if I was shooting Open things would get way out of hand/expensive. Before I get into this, yes I know it is most likely a waste of time, not worth the trouble, etc. I don't care, I like tricking stuff out for the pure enjoyment of it. Here is what I want to do. Through my business I have a good (cheap) connection for getting things coated. In this case titanium nitriding and DLC coating (Diamond Like Coating). I'm picking up a second M&P9 and I want to nitride all the guts and DLC coat the slide. Unless someone argues that there is a performance advantage (unlikely) I don't see where doing this would run afoul of the rules. The only advantage I see is that the parts will last longer...and look cool. Thoughts on it and its legality? I was going to include the relevant Production rules but for some reason I can't paste stuff into the thread (anyone else have this issue?). Thanks a lot! Jason
