I know first hand, Canadian distributor changes the extractor spring to wolf before shipping out and they do not sell tanfo springs

it might have to do with batches. Both my guns failed at 200 rounds. switched to wolff and zero issues.

if the gun is new, you need to take the extractor spring out and replace it with a WOLF XP Spring. Tanfo factory springs are utter garbage and only last for about 200 rounds. This thread is very long and I was part of it for a good part of 3 months trying to figure this out as well. Replace the spring with XP, DO NOT MODIFY ANYTHING : do not modify your extractor, do not touch the new spring. Just replace it. Do not waste your time with other tanfoglio spring, just get wolf. Enjoy.

I was just too lazy to open a thread

Thanks! Me too, but a friend lent me some while waiting for some cam pro.

Any loading data for xmetal (canadian-hitrk coating 180gr and v320??? in a pinch to reload for tomorrow and cant chrono until next week. please help a brother!

I just tried both methods: using the video and secondly just screwing the die down down and finding a setting with the micro meter. it is about the same.

I am in Canada and cant find anything about these holsters. I have been using a cr speed and ghost and not really king on the daa stuff. Too gimmicky. does anybody know where I can find info about the everglades in Canada.

That is correct however his instructions seem backwards. There is also no need to start with the micrometer at 1500 (as he has suggested. It is just seems and odd way to set up this die, I am just waiting for bullets to try this myself.

Yes I agree with this, however when he is done the die isnt touching the die and it is a bit short. the die body in my opion should not be moved after it touches the plate (almost touching) and all the other settings should be done by the micro meter. I will do some experimentingand report back.

I just purchased this die and I am not fully convinced that this video is correct in the way the day is set up. this die is designed to hold the entire case, for example, so I would have started by seating the body all the way down until touching the loader plate and then, with the micrometer extended out to the maximum setting I wouls find my correct oal. i think that by not using the die body fully you will get scraped cases as shown in this thread, as your die can’t fully align the brass before seating the bullet. Also, the whole point of having a micrometer is being able to start from zero and not use a guess-stimation. Please correct me if I am wrong, as I am going to be setting this die soon and might even do a new video If I find a better way to set it up.

14 year old thread for the 108 year old platform and the discussion continues! lol Browning would be proud.

Thanks guys. great to hear. Atlas is in my list then.

That is great to hear, can you tell me more or be more specific about fitment? The reason I ask is because I do not live in the USA. Doing my research before importation

how are atlas guns built? any rattles in between frame and slide? movement side to side? Not talking barrel to slide fitment here.

lol

10 yr old thread going strong. lol

cool thanks

What happened to this thread? i hate when people open threads and do not post a solution.

barrel is probably poorly fit to the gun, it will break again. I would not replace anything until you know for sure the barrel is fit. Hand cycling the gun will not show signs or poor fit so you will most likely need someone with experience in this matter. more info on barrel fitting and signs of poor barrel fitting: http://www.schuemann.com/Documentation.aspx

Sorry but making 500 guns a year is no excuse to let guns out the door without proper inspection. Is that is your first impression then you will never have my business, that indicates to me thet corners had to be cut in order to fullfill a timeline. That is a slippery slope specially in this niche market never ever heard of an svi going back when new. Ever.

That is what I have heard and why I ended up buying an sti. Cost me less too and it has been good, however, I understand it is not the same and wouls prefer something bettee as I can appreciate the quality of a semi custom. My next one is going to be a custom that is for sure. Too bad for atlas, and thanks for your input

thanks! any other users with over 20k / 30k?

I have been told that this guns are nice but shoot loosy loosy after not so many rounds. looking for a honest response from someone that owns a .40 model and shoots major with more than 10 k down the pipe
