What’s the correct recoil spring weight for a gen 5 17 mos for carry optics?

Thanks. Do you have a model number for that plate? Just want to make sure I’m getting the right one.

Which plates are drilled for removal of extractor (model number or link) and what’s your experience with them? good, bad or otherwise. Looking for one that will fit SRO on a shadow 2 OR. Thought cz had one but I don’t see one that appears drilled.

As others said, use actual bullet weight when computing your power factor. Going for 130-135 in minor is pretty common and gives a margin of safety above the minimum. At major matches I’ve had bullets pulled and weighed, and also just asked what grain bullet I was using. So could happen either way at the match. If asked I’d just say the advertised weight. I’m typically 133-135pf, so would be well above minimum even with bullet weight variation.

Was about 12 weeks for a 17mos this fall.

Can the TSO 40 be converted to 9? If so..What parts would be needed and how’d it work if you did this?

It’s brass

Found this in range pick ups, WCC 43. Does that date seem realistic? Anyone have an older case?

Clean shot, vv320, sport pistol

Already up to 3k with a mere 13 days left. Act fast, maybe they’ll do a buy now price of 10k for the glock.

Here’s a quick check to see if it’s the sizing die. Size 100 cases, without actually loading, just sized. Then see how many fit in the hundo gage.

The number of case uses may vary by sport, for USPSA or action pistol sports, it is generally as many times as the case can be loaded before it splits or the primer pocket is worn out and won’t hold a primer. Accuracy is not effected by using the case several times in this scenario. Case gauge will help find split cases, also they make a distinct noise compared to others before being loaded, making them easier to locate.

Convinced many of those outrageous ads and prices are fake and someone runs up the bids on behalf of the seller. Agree that it will be listed again soon so if anyone missed out they should have another shot.

The Dawson adjustable sights are nice. Have several thousands of rounds on them with no issues. They are much easier to change if your load changes and point of impact shifts as a result, versus trying to drift a sight. Worth it in my opinion.

The easiest way I have found is to determine oal is take a spent case, not sized or anything, shove a projectile on to the end of it, then push this into the chamber until the bullet is seated all the way. Then measure that case, that’s your max oal for that chamber and projectile. Back off your loading oal the desired amount from the max, example .015 below max oal. Yes xl40 does longer rounds, that would be the one you want.

Thanks, that would be helpful. Have heard of doing it for other models just not the s2.

Any shadow 2 owners alter the factory magwell opening? Such as removing material from the front and back of the magwell, to improve reloading while staying production legal. if so what did you do, pictures would be helpful.

Went through ups and took less than 5 days from order to door.

Sounds like a tight chamber, if you plunk and measure different types of ammo you can find what works best and fits in the barrel without hanging up. With new glocks I’ve found that polishing the top and bottom of the extractor makes it operate smoothly and fixes extraction issues. The extraction issues are usually on spent cases though, What you discussed sounds more the oal of the round and projectile shape.

My preference is just polish parts, lighter connector, and lighten the striker spring slightly, you are not going to get a da/sa quality trigger. As mentioned before all guns are different and some parts work better in one gun and not well in another, if you want to swap parts get several different kinds. Trigger weight matters less, practice and dry fire matters more.

Thanks for the replies. Using just a 13 with no other modifications and seems to be working with cci primers.

Thanks for the info

Newer shadow 2 owner, looking to have complete reliability but swap the hammer spring, have a few questions. Whats the lowest weight hammer spring are you able to run 100% reliably with all primers (cci, or other harder primers)? Are you running an extending firing pin and or reduced firing pin spring, is this needed? How deep are you seating primers ? How often are you changing the hammer spring?
