  1. The evo includes a beavertail
  2. 10 cents is the norm near me plus shipping. It usually sells instantly at the range or on here. Especially if all SC
  3. It won’t have any corrosion resistance once you take the finish off. Keep it oiled. Or else reblast it every month or two.
  4. Give them a call or shoot me a message on here. I can walk you through the ordering.
  5. Start at 4.1 at magazine length. 4.2 to 4.3 should make major with titegroup.
  6. Wes, do you shoot uspsa or steel challenge?
  7. WAC is a club where transitions are top priority. Position entry was pretty solid. Exit wasn’t super aggressive so could work on that. i love shooting at the WAC but it highly favors guys with fast transitions. Especially open / limited. Notice how long it takes you in the second position to start shootin the long target that is wide open.
  8. I have ran all the way to 42.9 but I checked with a triple beam gram scale. It was 43 at the SS nationals. That was a little too close for comfort.
  9. Adjusting what works perfectly already is something they make meds for. Im kidding but seriously, never understood modifying what works. Especially mags.
  10. I have one. It’s going to be hard to make weight with a magwell. You neee an aluminum guide rod and a plastic mainspring housing. i ended up tri topping the slide to make weight easier. Its doable. Just realize you will have to change some parts.
  11. I have taken a few high level classes. All said the same thing. Hold the gun tight. Wasn’t a long or drawn out thing. Hold tight. Pull trigger. If you look at any national champ, their grip strength is far above average. That’s not a coincidence.
  12. We have a 73 year old competing at our club. Just started and is having a blast. He is even taking training classes and learning about open guns.
  13. I went with red hill tactical. Sig ones kept breaking on all my buddies rigs.
  14. I made an aluminum extension on a lathe with some scraps laying around. Sorry not more help.
  15. Looks pretty normal to me. I have seen far worse with less rounds.
  16. Never seen it and wouldn’t want to be the guy
  17. If your tube is still straight, then just get the primer slide assembly. My tube was toast after 115 primers went off
  18. You shouldn’t need anything except the shuttle, tube, insert and Nipple at the bottom. I highly doubt anyrhing else got damaged. Those are the parts I replaced when it happened to me.
  19. Most of the Redding dies will crimp while seating as well.
  20. I like the rubber band trick for avoiding double feeds. Has anyone come up with a way to add more bullet seating tension? I extended the clear part 5 inches and it helped a ton. More bullets stacked equals more downward pressure. Was just curious if anyone else came up with an idea.
  21. It really isn’t meant as a SS gun. The short sight radius is great for carry but not competition. It does shoot amazing. I wanted to burn up all their ammo at nationals but alas people were waiting.
  22. Dry fire is the staple of my training. For gun handling related items, it rocks. I wouldnt give up my live fire training though. Live fire builds confidence that dry fire is working.
  23. Karts barrel fitting tool is nice. Sear jig is nice There are quite a few specialty tools. Research them because many aren’t needed.
  24. Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification. Shoot through them is my motto.
