  1. I’ve had a time with my p320 mags. I like the TTI and Henning basepads best. However, even with grams spring/follower I still only get 20 in my 17rd with the +5 TTI basepad and 22 reloadable with the 21rd mags and the +2 tti basepad

  2. Not sure what you mean about the piece that hangs out of the backstrap, but the Carry Optics models are labeled "C.O.R.E." (Competition Optics Ready Equipment), such as:
    https://www.smith-wesson.com/firearms/performance-center-mp-9-m20-core-pro-series-5-barrel


    I have been under the impression that they abandoned the C.O.R.E. models, but like I said.

    The piece I’m talking about is what holds the backstrap on. I’d be all for just using some Jb weld and silicone carbide to hold the backstrap on then removing that extra piece.

    Speaking of backstraps, is anyone making a brass replacement like they have for the canik? Now that essentially everything goes in CO and Production.

  3. I am shooting a Legion right now, but every time I handle an M&P with the Apex trigger, I wonder why I wasted the money on the Legion. The only hang ups I have are the lack of an Optics ready model and that stupid little piece that hangs out of the backstrap at the magwell.

     

    It’s possible I live under a rock and there is news of an Optics ready model, but is there anything you can do to fix that annoying little piece that I’m sure no one but myself is concerned about?

  4. I left mine alone and ended up having Alma Cole do a custom one off build up and silocon/grit job and this rendered the magwell usage impossible.


    Do you have any photos of how Alma shaped your grip?

    Wondering how everyone is treating the notches left on the grip when the magwell is removed? I won’t bring using the magwell ever so should I just dremel out the magwell or just leave them?

  6. I was thinking I had grams guts in, but after a quick check, they definitely have a factory follower. I’d bet that would be the solution.

  7. I have set up a few 21rd mags with the Taran +2 basepads since I got my Legion. Initially I thought it was just going to take a minute for them to settle before I could get 23rds in them. I haven’t done much searching but I know none of the mags I have set up this way will allow me to start a stage with 23+1. What is the solution?

  8. It sounds like a fun project. I don’t see a slide ride being less competitive than a frame mounted optic unless you can transition faster than the slide can open and close. Whether or not it is a waste on money, that is a question you have to ask yourself

  9. I actually made a point to look for these before I even posted. Thank you for helping me realize I’m a dumbass.

    The x5s I’ve handled with the shorter government model 1911 springs in them have felt like they’re not working properly. So I wanted to stick with what Sig built the guns on. That may change but right now I don’t have a reason to not stick with them.

    With around 1000rds through my X5 Legion, I can tell this factory 12# recoil spring is not going to last more than a few thousand rounds at a time. I’ve seen guys using 1911 springs as replacements, but where can the factory recoil spring be purchased?

    Does anyone know of a rule that explains whether or not it is legal to start with the hammer down on a loaded DA/SA gun in Limited division? Versus hammer back safety on.

  12. I have a the LOK palm swells and Hennings ordered. Those sound like the most popular. I might try the CZC grips with the micropockets. I like the idea of EVO type texture on the shadow.

  13. I recently purchased a Shadow 2 and I really like the thin factory grips. After very little shooting with it, I definitely want a more aggressive texture. Through some research it appears I may want wider grips to fill my hands better. I have large hands, but does that mean I definitely need the wider grips?

  14. I have been using coated 200gr SWCs for awhile, but I think I want to try some 230gr RN bullets.

     

    Which bullets/loads are you guys using to make major in your single stack guns? Are they feeding more consistently than SWCs?
