This happened to a friend of mine a couple months ago when I took his side plate off to replace the hammer.
He sent it to S&W and 6 weeks went by before they opened the gun case. When they saw it was a PC gun, they had to send it to the PC and said it may be 4 more months or longer.

I'm getting frustrated with GoPro brand. I had a Hero 8 and the battery died, non replaceable. I even tried to get it apart, no way. Go Pro would not fix it.
Then I bought a Hero 10, I use the App on my phone to control it, sometimes it connects, sometimes it don't.
I had it mounted to a pole at an outdoor match and it kept overheating, OK I get that, it was hot out.
Couple days ago I was recording an ICORE match for our club, indoor range, not too hot and it still overheated.
Installed the recommended firmware update, still overheats.
So then I read a bunch of recommendations to make it work, I was told to turn off a lot of the features, Well what's the point of buying one with all the fancy features if you can't use them?

I assume the locking set screw is backed out?

One of my squad mates is picking up a 627 in 38 Super and I already reload 38 Super for my open guns and 1911s.
I have bullets from .355 to .358
I had heard that even the 929 has a .358 barrel? But I don't know about the Super comp.
Thanks,
Jeffrey

627 V-Comp

I have a V-Comp for ICORE Open with an optic and recently acquired a 627 PC for Limited and USPSA.
What sights are you guys using? I think some of my fellow squad mates are using LPA. Some with the Fiber rear and some without.
Just wanted to see what my options are.
Thanks,
Duke

Regional Postal Match
-
The Rockford IL Match will be on a Monday night, I do not know yet when any other clubs in the Midwest will be holding their match.
-
Yes, it is a Monday
-
We had our monthly ICORE match tonight and we received permission from the club to use all 3 ranges, we will hold it on August 7th at 5PM, ICORE will pick the classifier. We have to submit our stages to ICORE for approval so the other clubs can set up the same stages.
-
Right now, because we are a smaller indoor range we are looking at 4 stages on Monday August 7th starting at 5pm and 4 stages Monday August 14th starting at 5pm.

Correct, I was taking it apart to change the hammer

The V-comp has better internals then the PC 627

I see Ron and Joanne in the videos, good people and shoot with us here in Northern IL.

Hmmmm, look at the election dates:

Call Hunters Gold and ask for Chris, he is amazing to deal with.
I got a prescription locally for either multi focal or progressive ( I do not remember which) they worked great for shooting but sucked for working at a computer. I got a pair of regular glasses locally for work and the same script but opposite (either progressive or multi focal ) for shooting.
The glasses I got from Hunters Gold do little or nothing at distance, which I do not need and works great for seeing targets and also works with red dot optics. Tilting my head back just a tad and the front sight of pistols comes into view perfectly.

Here is what works for me.
For a regular belt I wear a ratcheting Nexbelt
One day I mistakenly started to thread my Velcro inner belt in my beltloops, forgetting I still had on my NEXBELT.
This worked great!
Sometimes I also wear these suspenders Suspenders on my Nexbelt
The pants I wear have enough room for my regular belt and my inner velcro belt.
