Springer makes a mag well and sells a compatible backstrap, not as big as the Dawson ice but a nice package none the less. Springer stuff is top notch. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

3.8s use a captured double recoil spring, I don't think the single spring/solid rod combo from a 4.5" would work without a guide bushing type at the front to keep the longer rod straight. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

They had thumb safety models on display at SHOT Show.Really? Was it just for Military and Police? No, this one will be hitting the civilian market sometime this quarter. I only saw Compact models but suspect full size would be available as well. I think this will help with compliance in some states, but also there seems to be a demand from some of the carry crowd to have this additional safety measure for reassurance. I took one apart. It looks like the mod is just in the FCU and two new vertical slices in the grip module. I suspect the slides are unchanged. In addition to what Alma said, I also suspect they are competing in the Army's new handgun search, and an external safety is a requirement.

I handled the Target model on display at SHOT, as well as Max Michel's personal P320 prior to one of his demonstrations - this will be well worth the wait.

Thanks for the referral to this from coAR-15. I'll spend the next few days studying and apply this to the next WPGC indoor.

Match done. Met my goals but got a bit too excited on stage 2 and the speed cost me with M and NS. Overall, placed 15 out of 18 in Production. I'll take that! Kudos to Whistling Pines and the crew there. Had a great time in a well run, safe match. I'm not sure I could have done better with my PPQ since my biggest issue was the follow-up shots. That PPQ trigger is nice for that, but the G19 is no slouch by any means, particularly after the 3.5# Edge connector and polish. I just need to work on that aspect more.

Everything installed (or uninstalled such as the GFA) except for the Apex extractor. Don't need it for this gun as it ejects pretty well. Added a Ghost, Inc Edge 3.5# connector and 6lb firing pin spring. Dry fire indicates a very smooth trigger pull with solid release and tactile reset. Probably 4.5lbs, I left the stock firing pin safety spring and trigger spring (though I have the Ghost springs if I want to lower trigger pull weight any further). IPSC safety class tomorrow afternoon and first match Monday night. Going to get in one more practice session tomorrow before the class and focus on double taps and transitions. Goals for Monday's match - Do not get DQ'd for safety - Have fun - Focus on fundamentals over speed (speed will come)

Calendar is clear. I'm in for the 10th.

Walther and NROI director have both responded. For now, not approved for Production. National Sales director for Walther did say:

All OEM! Thanks alma. I originally got the G19 to serve as my concealed carry but have moved to a Springfield XDs 3.3, smaller and slimmer.

I would concur with you if it were the same as going from my M&P FS9mm original hinged trigger to the Apex FSS I installed - totally different profile, but that gun is what I will set up for Limited one day. - App D4 #21.6 Any other components which are externally visible may ONLY be replaced with OFM parts which are offered on the specific model of gun or another approved gun from the same manufacturer except as specifically clarified below. Examples of external components which may only be replaced with OFM parts include (but are not limited to): magazine releases, slide stops, thumb safeties and triggers. Based on this, the smooth trigger shoe from a G17/G22 will be fine, no? The groves cause hot spots after a day at the range. When I had a G17 and G22, I much prefered that trigger shoe feel.

I've contacted both Walther customer service and the NROI director regarding the Production list status. In the mean time, moving for this weekend's class with G19 as my main gun. Man how I hate that grooved G19 trigger shoe though.....looks like I can find the OEM Glock extended mag release, extended slide stop and a smoother trigger shoe all in stock at Ghost, Inc. Fortunately, whether it is, or is not going to be approved is not a determining factor in whether I participate. I've got the luxury of a few guns to play with. The PPQ M2 is a fantastic piece and the one I've been training with since February so I'm a little late in the game to switch, but I've got a longer history with my G19 so, like riding a bike, it'll come right back to me (minus the warmy/fuzzy feelings the great ergonomics and great OEM trigger produce). Talon grips are inbound. Spent my dry fire practice yesterday working draws with the G19, my Blackhawk CQC holster isn't the smoothest (and neither am I) but it's safe and on-hand.

Will do. I think we've got plans for pre-Mother's day activities but will let you know.
