Was that a steel match? WOW, that's a lot of shootin' .
BTW, what are you shootin' ?
It was a local 3 gun match. That particular stage was steel targets, a Texas star, and about half paper targets. It was handgun only as well. I actually ran out of ammo at the very end so I got an FTE.
It was kind of entertaining to see all of us borrowing magazines from each other for the stage.
I'm shooting with a g34, stoeger m3000, and an AR that I built slowly over a year or two.

Didn't do too bad. Placed 31/42 and didn't get a DQ so great day overall. Had a 53 Target stage that destroyed me. That was a tough one.

I've been a member here for a while but stopped coming by and took a break from shooting to deal with life a bit.
Shot my first match in 3 years last weekend and I'm coming back!
Glad to be here again.

Mine hasn't rotated or loosened in about 100 birdshot and 25ish slugs.

***** recoil spring spacer is shortened to increase reliability with light loads*****
Did i miss reading about this mod or is it Top secret MOA-ness.
i almost chop sawed mine but couldn't find where to buy a spare "just in case"
I asked about it when i first found this thread but got no answers. Anyone know where to buy one so I can experiment with it as well?
-
Whatever you feel most comfortable with. I use a 26" barrel. IIRC a longer barrel shoots slugs slightly less accurately and has a slightly tighter spread.
-
I used a set of snap ring pliers and a lot of profanity to get that thing off.
-
Got mine yesterday. Put it on the m3000 and it fits great. Getting it over the first inch of the barrel is rough since the barrel is slightly larger up front but after the first inch it's all smooth sailing. I put a small crack in mine during installation and Tim told me if I ever wanted, just send him a picture and he'd send me another one out no problem. I'll keep it as is for now but it's great to know these things are backed up by a good warranty and a stand up company.

Woot! Order placed.
Edit: Shipped this morning!
-
I'll buy one as soon as there's a non-railed version released.

PMAG test?
in Glock
According to facebook replacement magazine bodies are being sent out.
Now Shipping--Again--The PMAG17 GL9.
We have now shipped replacement bodies for the entire first run of PMAG17 GL9 magazines to our dealers and distributors. Within the next few days, everyone who purchased PMAG17 GL9 magazines from the initial run should be receiving their replacement bodies, either delivered directly to the purchaser in the case of those who purchased from Brownells, Midway, DSG, Aim Surplus, or other online retailers, or delivered to your local gun store, where you may trade the old bodies for new, in the case of an over-the-counter sale. If anyone who purchased at a brick and mortar store is unable to return to the purchase location, please contact customer service and alternate arrangements will be made.
This also marks the kickoff of full production of the magazine as originally intended, and the corrected PMAG17 GL9 will begin shipping again to dealers and distributors. All magazine bodies with a date code of 5/15 and later are the corrected bodies, and will work flawlessly with G34, G17, G17L, G19, and G26 pistols with none of the ammunition sensitivities exhibited in the first run.
We thank everyone for their patience with this product launch, and we appreciate your continued business.

Hi, I'm new to the forum. I've heard good things about the M3000 so I preordered the M3K. The last few days I've read this thread from start to finish and am starting to wonder if I should cancel my preorder on the M3K and purchase a M3000 with the competition package from MOA or the P3K instead. Hmmm...
Great info on this thread and I'm really liking the aggressive porting that you guys have been doing. Does anyone know for sure what the final M3K is going to look like? The details on the final port shape sound like they are still being worked out.
It'll be a hard decision. Nobody has an M3K yet so final product tweaks are still unknown. According to PK, the loading port will be opened up more than shown during shot show but nobody knows how much more it's opened.
Did you get a shipping estimate? If you need it fast, MOA could probably hook you up. If they're out you could also buy an m3000 and send it off to MOA to get worked on as well.
If you end up keeping your preorder for the M3K, post up a in depth review and lots of pictures of it in this thread!

We have a new spring coming out, by the way! It's slick.
Perfect timing! ETA? I'd love to get one before season starts here.
-
It might just be the break in period. You were also using ammo that's notorious for not cycling in the m3000 as well. Try giving MOA a call and see what they think. If they built it I'm sure they wouldn't mind taking it in to tinker with it and see if there's a problem.
-
I would wait and try to find another M2 or pick up one on the classifieds.
-
Run what you got and see if it works for you. I took a $200 H&R pardner pump without an extension to my first match and still had a blast. Sure I wasn't at the top but it was my first match and I learned a ton. I shot all of last season borrowing shotguns from squadmates and friends until I got an m3000 of my own.

Welcome from north Denver!

I'm a smidge faster going left to right. I'm right handed and left eye dominant.
-
You can either change the sights out, send it back to glock, or just drift the rear sight. Mine is slightly drifted.
-
I definitely second the above poster. Just show up to the match with what you got. My first match I practically had people throwing their gear at me. I used a different shell caddy every stage and got to see things I liked and disliked about everything which helped me when it was time to order.
Heck, my buddy sent with me with only a rifle. Most people in the squad offered to let him shoot their guns if he didn't feel like using mine. It was kind of a shock to me how friendly everyone was being.

They aren't supposed to ship out into the end of March supposedly.Did magpul come out with their Glocks mags yet?

Anyone have a link to a video or a write up on how to polishing the factory magazine tube?
I used 200, 400, 600, then 2000 grit sandpaper in that order. Kept it nice and wet with rem oil and just kept going back and forth until it was uniform all the way around. Took me about half hour roughly by hand.
Long nice even strokes with the sand paper wrapped around the tube.
Edit: shooting the everloving piss out of it will polish it over time too.
-
Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Start time how long it takes you to do a slow one well. Then work on getting that time down in small increments

Im using a hiviz flame front sight and no rear at the moment. Planning on cutting a triangle notch though.
Stoeger Extension - to clamp or not to clamp?
in Shotgun - Technical

I've seen shotguns without clamps bring abused and thrown with no problems. I keep the taccom one on just in case but I don't know if it's absolutely necessary though.
