Patriot defense just got some stock master slides in, can I put that on my stock 2 and still be C\O legal?
-
Having shot three seasons of limited one year with a steel grip STI edge and the last two with an ATLAS nemesis. I can say without reservation that the Atlas will be a better gun in finish, trigger and balance. Is the atlas $1000 better? I still say yes.

I just installed one in my stock 2 I like it bought another one. Dot40 is the us distributor

How do you do, fellow Open shooters?

I got set of these if you like original skinny feel of a 1911 thes are grippy https://www.railscales.us/collections/products/products/ascend-1911-scales
For SS I'm ordering ds permans because I'm used to a 2011 grip.

I can only speak to the egw lightened hammer kit, I installed it as is on a stock sti and gave a nice 3# pull right of the box. The kit came on a custom Bedell and atlas I have and both have sub 2# smooth as butter pulls. I’m thinking if these builders are happy with them, who am I to argue?

Getting a regular stock 2 from patriot defense with their work done to it since you don't have the knowledge will both be cheaper and better job on trigger than the xtreme.
^^^ this, I have two, one match gun and one backup with the whole patriot kit, they are nearly identical in trigger and even after two seasons of use the match gun looks just as new as my backup.

Thanks for all that. I started out likeing the Stock 2, then the Limited, then the Limited Custom, now the Extreme guns. Tanfo makes so many, it's hard to pick one. But I do appreciate the help.
Also remember that the standard stock 2’s are chromed that pimpy ceracote is gonna look doo doo after a few 100 draws

I have a nemesis and a older model edge (with steel grip) .. the balance and fit and finish are a giant leap between the two.

Just put down a deposit on my nemesis from atlas, post when you get yours!

How many rounds did u try?
Shot about 100 rounds each bill drill speed with mag changes, the only issue I had was 2 failures to feed on my stock 2 because I just switched to a 8# recoil spring, so went back to 10# on it and no issues, 8# in my stock 3 was good to go. Thinking since my stock 2 is so new it could just be that the slide rails need to settle in or maybe polish a bit.

Just wanted to say the 13# pf is popping the cci's in both the stock 3 and stock 2. Triggers feel great with no stacking thanks!

Answered my own question, filed down the ramp now it's good to go.

So I just got my gsi bullet feeder setup and the bullet feeder advance ramp seems to really grind against the xl650's shellplate base... does this just get better as it wears or did you have to do some filing and buffing?
-
Yes read that a lot, I'll check that as well at the range.

Ok got the 13# pd springs in both my stock 3 and stock 2, going to test them out tomorrow. The pencil test shows about the same as the old 13# wolf spring but they are both consistent on height , will update tomorrow.
-
Yes I have a henning extended FP and just tonight I clipped the light wolf FP spring 3 coils, pencil test didn't really net a huge change I'm running a 13# wolf hammer spring. I didn't really have any problems prior to running the extreme sear + bolo + titan hammer but I can't imaging those causing this issue. I have the 13# PD springs and I'm hoping that sets the cci's off again. I have been running cci's only in these guns since I got them but running low and have a bunch of S&B's but even less confident in those going pop...
thanks for the help!

I've been having some problems with cci primers recently. I have a stock iii with:
titan hammer
extreme sear
bolo
wolf 8# recoil and light FP spring (henning FP)
13# hammer spring
and now get some light strikes on first DA strike subsequent SA strikes pop them. Just not sure what might be happening. I have 13# and 14# PD hammer springs on order and if the stacking is not an issue I'll just go with 14# PD but I really like the pull of the #13 extreme hammer spring I have. Is it that the 13 is just worn out. Only have like 3000 round on this spring.
also the 10# PD spring in my stock II doesn't pop cci so why I ordered the 13 and 14#

I've been having the same issue, seems that the feed lips get a bit stretched out. I squeezed mine just a tad tighter using my small bench vise and that has helped but I'm wondering if anyone has a more permanent fix as they do stretch out after a few sessions\matches
