Replied Kian. You may get a more detailed response if you ask here though.

I finally had some time to try out the 11lb recoil spring with the Wilson full length guide rod. It ran great and very flat with a mix of factory ammo.
-
Let us know how it works out!
-
Thanks Sharppoint! RTL, I haven't had a lot of free time, but I did shoot a bit. The Wilson guide rod is great, but the 9 and 10lb recoil springs were too light with factory ammo. I haven't tried the 11lb yet though. The lighter springs will come in handy when I start reloading for 9mm.

Base Pads: Dawson Precision or Taran Tactical
CyclicRate replied to soulbyte's topic in 1911-style Pistols
I have Dawsons on my Para and TTIs on my M&P. They're both great, but I probably prefer the Dawsons for disassembly. TTI offers more color options though. -
That's a good looking blaster! Let us know how it runs.
-
I'm not sure, but I don't think that will fit a Para.
-
I fitted a GunCraft long curve for my 18.9 PC. It's not hard to do yourself. You just need an hour, a black sharpie, and some fine grit sandpaper.
-
I know you're busy, but I never got an email back on the possible in stock +7 tube for my build. Shoot me an email or private message.
-
I doubt it would. Nothing really clamps down too hard on the frame.
-
Either my M&P or Pro Custom 18.9 if I put a rail on it.

I picked one up recently, but haven't bought a red dot for it yet. I had the owner demo the mount for me with a laser bore sight. It was very repeatable even between different mounts and pistol models. It held within an inch at 30 yards after fully removing and switching between pistols. That's well within my margin of error at that distance. As I said, this was just a demo experience and I haven't put any rounds down range with it yet. I'm still deciding on which micro red dot to buy.
-
No experience with the Fusion, but I fitted a GunCraft for my Pro Custom 18.9 and I love it. Only took 30 minutes with some fine grit sandpaper. It's a huge improvement over the wobbly stock plastic trigger.
-
Ah, wish I would have known that. I bought a black one a few weeks ago when I placed my order with you guys haha.
-
I'm waiting on my Stoeger from you guys so I don't want to keep you away from the work, but could you post the picture when you have a chance? I'll be doing the same to mine when it arrives

Who is "F.A.C."? Saw these on CDNN and thought...
CyclicRate replied to Brassaholic13's topic in Para
Thanks for trying these out kmca. What were the alluminum inserts you mentioned? -
That's good to know. I'm biding my time before making the decision.
-
Yeah I just can't justify or swing it at that price.
-
If CDNN puts the 16.40's on sale like the did with the 18.9, I'll pick one up. I'm thinking it'd be a good start for building a budget USPSA open gun.
-
Sounds like I shouldn't hold my breath then. I was hoping to get one of them for USPSA then use the PC 18.9 for Steel Challenge and 3 gun.
-
I was lucky enough to get four with my gun when I traded for it =D I feel like it's certainly hurting the popularity potential for this pistol. I know a few people who have passed it up because the mag availability issue. Anyone know if they still plan to release the lightened slide version in 40?

Please report back! If these work, a set of actual VZ Operator II's are in my future. The ones that came with my Pro Custom 18.9 are not nearly as grippy as the ones on my Springer. -
Thanks everyone. Let us know how the mags work out, Telecat. These are a lot of gun for the money, but the mag shortage is definitely a draw back right now.

Tac Ops offset irons - yes or no? Other options?
CyclicRate replied to ctay's topic in Rifle - Technical
I could see that happening once or twice too. I'm thinking about the Knights Armament 300 offset irons. They're very low profile when folded and you can remove part of the rear aperture to make the peep much larger and quick to find. -

CyclicRate replied to ctay's topic in Rifle - Technical
I think using the 0-200 large aperture would be the same as reshaping. If you can get the rear peep sight fairly close to your eye, i think it'd be quicker than messing with the power ring or cat tail.
