I am quickly putting my new Patriot tuned Stock 1 set up to the top of the shooting order as it’s just that good to shoot. A local friend has an Elite Limited Pro that I may grab to build a second Patriot tuned Carry Optics gun. Other than the short dust cover (little bit less weight up front) I think it will be a good match overall as far as feel and shooting. Is anyone using one for CO and if so what is the weight with empty mag? My Stock 1 is exactly 44.4 oz.

He had quite a bit of feedback on the version 2. It’s really nice.

Yep. It happened to me in a classifier and ended up zeroing it. Wasn’t pleased at myself for not getting it corrected sooner. I think the 2.0 has a small detent already.

My next open build will have one of these for sure. Going to order now so I have it.

Looking forward to seeing (and hearing) yours!

Oh the love....you guys crack me up

I would say they are talking about the shaft that goes into the gun. It has to (1) make it through the frame hole and (2) be small enough not to catch up on the barrel link or anything else inside. With some sand paper and a little time it will be perfect. Also, the detent that was mentioned is important. Some shooters can push it up enough to make it go into slide lock while shooting freestyle and also weak hand.

Both are now discontinued so if anyone is looking for one and finds a great deal I’d scoop it up.

Great work on these John!

Bottom one is a plastic gun?

You were right!

I’m loading on a 650. Just ordered 5k of the Winchester and will play with OAL. Thanks for your help!

Range report.... 300 rounds of PD 124g over 3.5g N320 at 1.12. The gun is amazing!!!! Single action is better than most of my 2011 guns. The dot doesn’t leave the glass at all. I had two light primer strikes (using CCI #500 SPP) but they did go off in single action the second one. Also has (2) failure to feed and not sure what that is about. The round was perfectly horizontal just below the feed ramp. Maybe I will go longer with OAL? What a joy to shoot! Incredibly smooth and to be honest hands down better overall in all areas than the full custom SP-01 shadow I had from CZ Custom. Im going home to get more ammo and shoot in my back yard Range.

Thanks. I check them out

That’s great buddy! Post pics of the blaster and your new place when you can.

DPP for me on my open and carry guns! Anyone know where to get a good used DPP 2.5 or a new one at a good price?

Good luck! I find the research and “building” is almost as fun as shooting our projects.

I have used lots of the traditional ones and find them as a great point of contact to get a proper and consistent grip on the gun. Too far forward and you lose real estate on the grip. I’m now testing a Nitro Fin 2.0 on my open gun and like it as it’s closer to your hand. It’s all I use on my limited guns it feels great. Time will tell if it stays on the open gun.

What are you getting? How long was the wait? 3 weeks left is not bad

Every open gun I’ve owned has been used. If you look for one that is a good deal and matches what you want I’d go for it. Choosing one that has a lifetime warranty is good as well. Limcat is one you can’t go wrong with EVER. Others have a warranty like theirs and make sure you get one from a longstanding builder if customer service and warranty is a part of your plan.

The locals that shoot the RTS2 seem to be very pleased. Most of the people that complain are ones that stopped using them awhile back during the issues and still want to rant about it even though Cmore has made improvements. The DPP has my vote.

I just wish the capacity was better. It’s hard to change from the P365 with its capacity.

Gotcha. How does it feel now that you lightened the slide? Did you have to change the recoil spring weight after lightening?

A SAO CZ or TF appeals to me for some reason. No desire to shoot it in limited but would be fun to have anyways.

I have owned 2011 guns of that age and as long as they run and work I didn’t care. If it checks out I don’t think the age is a deal breaker.
