    Try Practical Shooting Timer https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/practical-shooting-timer/id1116005685?mt=8 Par Time works great and has auto Reset/Repeat

    Never had a problem with my TS40, both with factory mags and factory mags with CZC Spring/follower kit, except when I tried 1.178" COAL. At that long, ammo were dragging inside the mag, so it went single shot. Factory ammo and reloaded ammo <= 1.170" are never a problem. If you're going to compete, dump the shock buff. They work when shooting slow, but fails when driving the gun a little harder than usual

    That's a freakin steal. Enjoy it OP. Coming from Glock, you'll need time adjusting.

    You can also try a reverse plug without a flange: http://www.shootersconnectionstore.com/Assets/ProductImages/S22R5C.jpg The issue though is that your plug channel is chopped and this could damage the frame if the slide bangs against it due to the remaining materials, so maybe, Briley plug is your best bet. If you cleanup the slide, you'll have more, cheaper, options.

    Search MosinVirus in YouTube. He built a 1911 and 2011 and explained the process in detail. Atlas Gunworks also has some videos but short ones. Gives you enough though.

    The step or the shoulder of the plug should be snug when inside the channel. I think it's pretty loose, that's why it's being beat up, because the plug rotates every time the slide moves. If you can't keep it in place, the tabs will be chewed up

    Somebody fitted a flanged plug. My 16-40 looks nothing like that and my plug goes all the way into the channel wiht nothing visible except from the front. You can see the rough cut. Maybe you/they tried a Briley plug? The more you use a lighter spring, the more it will bang and smash against the frame. The worse part is that the two small tabs left from cutting the plug channel would damage any shock buffer you might be trying. I'm willing to bet that plug you're using now is loose fitting. Use a flange-less plug or trim those tabs. Flange should rest on the slide rails anyway.

    "we're not sure if you're an actual human being" .288. I wish I can draw even twice that. .248 is damn impressive though.

    I don't think it was even holstered. S/he's a righty

    Why not a tungsten guide rod again? BTW, how did it broke and how long before it broke?

    Get a new trigger set and be done with it.

    It was shot without a sight picture, so it will be pretty close. And yeah, "where the heck did it go" and the finger remaining on the trigger way after she's done shooting

    it was a 2011 with pinned grip safety. I guess the secondary hook could catch the hammer but I was just glad I didn't have to find out. Other than pissed off, I'm good though. It wasn't the first time I stared death in the eye.

    Not me but a match I attended last month, a guy dropped his loaded gun while reloading on the move. The gun flipped and pointed up range. I saw the muzzle and it was clearly pointed at me and I was just 15 feet away. I was so pissed off, both at the guy and at myself because I froze and didn't duck. Only luck saved me.

    Looks like somebody fitted a Briley reverse plug. Does it look like a piece was removed from that part of the slide?
