[You guys measure your bell & crimp?]

I don’t usually measure my bell but I do measure my crimp, I always try to get around .377-.378

Okay, let me know how that works out for you!

 

Actually it’s very possible that the follower is hitting the slide stop with one round still left in the magazine and causing the slide to lock back. It’s so common that if you google “slide locks back with one round in mag”, you’ll see a thread from this site from 2008 explaining why this happens. It’s due to the follower design (grams). You can go to bazos custom and find the solution or click the link I provided. I had the same issue with my prodigy when I first got the gun and atlas mags, ended up getting the competition followers for my mags.

[Dropping the hammer for DA in matches]

Did you change any parts on the gun?

[Cheely, Akai, or Atlas magwell for Titan]

Check out the lonestar innovations outlaw magwell, it has a delrin insert and it does help with mag correction.

I would like to clean the grips of my Prodigy with something safe that won't harm the grips. My dry skin appears to be embedding into the grip texture. Can someone recommend a cleaner for the grips? I'll use a nylon brush.

 

I’ve always had good luck using warm water with dish soap and a toothbrush. That’s how I’ve been cleaning my grips on all my guns

[Anyone make a flair powder funnel for the DAA bullet feeder?]

I run the ssi funnel on my 1100 w/ mark 7 auto drive, it’s extremely reliable much less bullet topple but it’s not 100%, usually crap brass is why the bullets tip over

[Armory Craft or Eemann trigger]

I run an ET ultimate with cgw T6 disco on my bull shadow, for me it’s the perfect trigger shape

[Green vs red]

After using a green dot for the last 6 months or so I’m getting ready to go back to a red dot, it seems for me that steel at distance against dirt or slight foliage is hard to pick up the green dot, the red is easier for me to see at distance.

[Occasional Half Cock When Shooting Fast]

Had the same issue on one of my prodigy’s but with the Brazos Pro Tuned trigger kit, would get the occasional hammer follow when trying to go really fast. The trigger pull was about 1.5lbs, called Bob at Brazos and he informed that the trigger pull was probably to light and should be set around 2.5lbs, I bent the left sear spring leg, set the trigger to just over 2lb. Now have close to 1k down range since and no more intermittent hammer follow.

Do you have any issues with light strikes with this combo? ive been having issues shooting supervel with this combo as well as the rami extended firing pin and there spring

No, but I only use federal primers in my cz’s, I believe supervel uses harder primers, I have a friend that has to use a 13lb ms with his supervel ammo, he gets light strikes with an 11.5lb spring. But he’s also using an SP01.

[Shadow 2 trigger]

My favorite set up is the czc comp hammer with the Cajun T6 hybrid disco, along with a 10lb czc main spring. Along with a bunch of polishing the trigger is much improved over stock. 

[Setup mighty armory crimp die - 9mm]

The below video is from Dillon and explains how to set up the dies, I’ve referenced it every time I set up my dies, fast forward to the crimp die portion and you’ll understand how to set up the crimp die. Even though it’s a Dillon video I’ve used it set up dies from all different manufactures.

 

 

[What Size 9mm Bullet Do You Use?]

.356 from Brass Monkey or Blue’s, they’ve always shot well in my CZ’s, P320’s and Prodigy

[Holosun 507 Comp]

I use #5, in green, so far I’m really impressed with the 507 comp. I didn’t know how much I needed/liked green dots till i got the 507 comp.

[GX holsters]

I had a friend who got his a month or so ago, he waited 10 months.

[CR Speed Ultra holster with DAA Lynx belt]

Just wondering if anyone has tried this combo and if it works. Looking at jumping into LO and would like to stay with the Lynx belt.

Here is the Delaware doc

 

[P320 X5 Legion Magwell options]

Thinking of adding a Magwell to my P320 X5 legion to dabble in LO and was wondering what Magwell would work with factory 17rd mags with Henning +6 extensions. Most of the options I see state that the 21 rounders must be used, just wondering if anyone has had any luck with other magwells.

Have you guys tried practicing? That seems to help more than constantly changing parts 

Or it could be that guns and grips aren’t a one size fits all and it does take trying grips to find the ones that work best. I see in you gun pic you’re not using factory grips so you’ve had to try out grips as well.

[Grips for Shadow 2. Non Palm Swell]

When I was shooting my SP01 Bull shadow I went with the SSI 4.0’s with brass inserts, really helped to balance the gun out. I tried so many different grips over the years to get that perfect feel and the SSI’s were the best I tried. Had multiple sets of Loks, the armanovs, Vytal mfg and Hennings. I pretty sure I spent as much in grips as I did to buy and build out the gun.

Idk if it’s my eyes or what but the 8moa circle and dot combo just looks like a dot to me. I have the green model so not sure if that has anything do to with it or the fact that the dot is SUPER Bright but that’s been my first glance experience so far. I really like it overall. Time will tell. 

Mine looks the same, just one big dot. Doesn’t bother me at all, the green is so much brighter than the red it’s much easier for me to see and doesn’t wash out like the red does.

[Green dots and sunglasses]

I’ve got a pair of Rudy Project Cutline w the ImpactX photochromic 2 Red lenses, they really make the green dots pop. I think you’ll really like them. I actually switched from HD to the Rudy’s.

More pics, forgot I had these on the tablet, you can see the clearance and how much material had to be removed to work with the Odin

can you post a photo?  Interested in seeing how much modification it takes. 

Didn’t take much, used a dremel with a cut off wheel and tape to keep the line straight. I don’t have a pic with Odin anymore.

 

[Holster for odin armory thumbrest]

When I used the Odin thumb rest I used a DAA Max holster and modified it to work with the thumb rest, I was not able to find any holster that would work with it and the Henning hanger. I really like the max holster and still use it.
