  1. A couple of urban greys have arrived in Sweden. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  2. Last I heard the Swedish retailer will hopefully get some in stock by october, not earlier. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  3. Anyone know if grippanels from sp01 shadow will fit the Shadow2? Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  4. I have this problem too. 100 cases of 9mm and the feeder stops. Its just couple of months old feeder. Thought the motor was bad or something. But after reeding this I will try to clean out any junk in there and see if i can tighten the clutch. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  5. Totally missed the set screw. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  6. Hi, the shellplate on my 650 keep getting unscrewed when loading. So it looses the tension and I have to tight it down every hundred rounds or so. What's wrong and how to fix? Started happening the last 1000 rounds or so. Loaded about 8000 before without this problem. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  7. Here is the difference between stock and czc comp. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  8. Sorry Hallz. On my current guns i run stock sights. So I cant take pictures on the angles you are looking for. I like the CZC sights though, the competition square one is like the square stock, just a little bigger and about 2mm closer to hammer. I had the HAJO sight on my last gun. The tactical one, like the top right in picture. That was a nice one, but I keep it simple now and just run the stock fixed, with a Dawson FO. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  9. Up left: Kensight adjustable with dots. Up right: CZC tactical fixed rear (i think). Down left: CZC Comp fixed. Down left: Stock sight on my Shadow orange. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  10. Not that anybody cared, but I used my trusty Dremel and got rid of some material under the magrelease. Solved both my problems. Now the gun sits like it's suppose to in the holster and retention is solid. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  11. I'm using the BOSS hanger and Bladetech holster for my Shadow. Only had the holster for about a month and the holster already started to give me problems. At first I could tight the screws down so that it held the pistol upside-down (without mag inserted). But now I can't tighten it down at all. The rubber spacers in the holster are squeezed pretty tight so they bulge in the middle, and even then the pistol ain't tight at all. That's not the biggest issue though, cause the pistol is not going to jump out of the holster by it self. But the screws are screwing themselves out so I can't get it to stay even semi-tight. The other problem is that my gun seems to sit 2-3mm to low in the holster when I add a little pressure to it. So when I draw the gun and put a little weight on it, the mag release gets just enough pushed in by the holster so that my mag falls out when I present the gun. Noticed this when shooting today, took me a few minutes until I figured it was a holster issue and not the mags. I'm thinking about just dremel the holster down a bit where the mag release tend to push against the holster. But isn't the holster suppose to be able to tight down and stay tight? I'm looking down on the holster now and it looks a bit like an upside down pear if you know what I mean. Or maybe a disco-gym-rat that only trained upper body and got skinny legs. Plenty of room for the guns slide, and squeezed together at the triggerguard portion.. Without any real retention to the gun. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  12. I'm using the SWC die. First thing I changed when switching from RN. I'm gonna try swapping it back to RN and see if that makes it better for me. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  13. The ones that doesn't fit the gauge don't fit the barrel either. I think it's a problem with how some of the bullets are seating in the case. They are slightly canted to one side.. So that side of the bullet grinds to the barrel, and in the opposite side the top of the brass is grinding against. Does that make sense? If so, what do I do? My friend is using the same bullets and his bullets doesn't seem to fail at all in my gauge, and he loads them a bit longer even. The bullet sits straight for him.

  14. I've tested it first in my barrel to get a OAL that worked for the new bullet. I had 1.125 for the RN, and 1.105 for this FP. I don't think I can load them shorter. My friend loads the same bullet at 1.110 without any problems. I mean the bullet just passes through the case gauge by it self, but when it's loaded to a case it grinds on the ledge of the flatpoint. How so? I'm thinking maybe the bullet isn't seating straight, a little canted bullet would grind on one side right? Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  15. Switched to a different 9mm bullet and started loading. After making about 30 rounds I case gauged them with bad results. About 25% didn't pass the gauge. The bullet is a 145gr flat point . 356, 1.105 oal. Didn't have any problems at all with the 10 thousand rounds of Frontier .355 147's RN. I took a sharpie and thought I'd see were it failed. Is this related to OAL, crimp, or is it simply a bullet problem, inconsistency maybe?
  16. Shadow Orange and Shadow Dual Tone Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  17. I fixed the problem today. Swapped the worn comp hammer it came with to a stock shadow hammer I had. Then I has to take pretty much material off the inside of the disco, because it would reset in SA otherwise (I have the pre-b disco). Now it seems to work.. In dryfire anyway. Haven't gotten to the range yet. But the trigger got heaver with this stock hammer, especially in DA. Probably 3-4lbs heavier. I guess it's gonna take some live- and dryfire to get in more "smoothly". Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  18. Thank you guys for great input. I got a stock hammer from my other Shadow just lying around and I'll swap the worn comp hammer that this Shadow orange came with, and see if it solves the problem. Otherwise it might also be a sear problem too as you mentioned. My overtravel is set so it cleares the sear, but I might adjust it a little more from now on. I've done a lot of billdrills and other rapid fire drills of late, so that might have contributed to more wear than usual, I don't know. But more than 30k rounds and this is the first issue I've had with this gun. So I'm really happy with the performance anyhow. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  19. Thank you. I tried that today, but didn't get any better. But I didn't take enough material off, so I'm going to remove some more and see what happens. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  20. First thing I tried. It goes to half cocked. Also see video I added to first post. Gonna try to file down the hammer just before the ledge to make it deeper so the sear might catch better. If it doesn't work or is reliable I'll by a new hammer. Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
  21. My SP01 Shadow started going half cocked every other round or so. I believe it skips the fully cocked "ledge" on the hammer, and stops at half cocked. Should I take some material of the hammer or just get a new one? The gun has just over 30k rounds through it and this just started happening from nowhere. https://youtu.be/dY78HogSiLg Skickat från min SM-G925F via Tapatalk
