I’m not directing this at you but this sounds made up.
Normally I'd agree with you but the MD quit because of it.

I'm just finding out about this and I'm having a hard time believing it.
One of my local clubs (I'm a member at almost all of them) asked the uspsa match director for a list of everyone that has been DQed from every match. He asked them what they wanted that for because he would have had to figure it all out. They replied that they would give the list to the state police so if anyone ever had to use a firearm for non sporting reasons they would be labeled unsafe to use/own firearms.
When I first hard of this I didn't believe it but was told that another club in PA was doing the same thing. Then proceeds to tell me of a story of a guy that got into a lot of legal trouble because of it. I don't think I should post those details here.

Thanks @WaltK

I purchased an Eemann Tech competition extractor for my STI 9mm major.
It is perfect in every way and the installation was trivial/drop-in. My new Aftec's were hopeless as described in the various comments. By the way the springs and saddle are interchangeable.

I’m in a middle of a build and was thinking about ordering one. Maybe someone on this forum has experience with the Eemann Tech extractor that can give some feedback
Where did you buy them from? I just Googled it and a place called dot 40. Net popped up? Ever heard of them? Here's the link https://www.dot40.net/product/competition-extractor-for-1911-2011/ theres no street address on the website

Has anyone ever figured out what's going on with these guys? When are they going to be back in stock anywhere?

Apparently so! I believe 12 of the 14 stages at the Western States Single Stack Classic were retreat stages! Partly how this conversation came up.
I would have asked for my money back

It's gona be cool when uspsa makes another division for this gun.
I'm being sarcastic btw
-
Are we talking to make 2 separate revolver divisions or having optics in with iron guys?
-
You should keep it, might be something the grandkids would want

Pcsl is dumb, it's all 9 minor

Works for me. Un install it, close everything out, restart your phone, install it again.

Thank you! I hadn't found that one yet.
It's a really neat club, I guess they are really into cowboy action so every bay looks like a movie set. I shot a uspsa there and the stages were really creative and fun. All the range equipment was nice witch I really like. It bothers me when I go to a club and everything looks like they dug it out of the trash. The people were great there too.

I called Alliant (cci) yesterday and asked about sport pistol and he told me it is slowly going out and the price will be higher. The plant where they get the nitro from burned down. He said precision reloading has it in stock. Their prices are insane though, f*#king price gouging.
-
What the rule number?
-
It's to deep, the crimp part is to high up in the die and won't reach the lip of the brass
-
Thanks Jason I'll order some firing pins tomorrow
-
Thanks for all the tips guys I'm going to start changing things up.
Is there any spare parts I should bring with me, is there any parts that break easily?

Bullet creep is fairly common with revo, I adjust my crimp to tighten up my shot group and not worry about bullet creep unless the bullet is sticking in the throat. Then when I get home, I reseat any rounds from used moons.

For 357 I used jacketed or coated with a crimp groove Both of those are roll crimped.
for 38 spc and 38 short colt, I used smooth no groove coated bullets, both old school moly and this newer Hitek stuff. Basically crimp till there is a slight groove in coating, but not cut.
None of above have ever given me bullet creep problems,,
Never saw the issue till I used commercial 9mm ammo in a 929.. Remington factory 147's didn't creep though.Thanks guys. I reseated and recrimped those rounds today

I just picked up a 929 for the winter to switch things up from High cap. Glad im not the only one haha.
Your gona love it. I obviously don't know s#!t about these things but I sent mine to Clark custom in Louisiana for the trigger job and everything else possible, it was pretty cheap I think a little over 300 bucks. What a difference in the trigger, it's smooth and about half the weight it was stock. They didn't get to aggressive on the cylinder chamfer job so I ended up getting out the electric gunsmith and went a little more myself.
