RIA releasing new striker-fire: STK-100
ts199982 replied to bigdawgbeav's topic in "Other" & Pistol Comparisons
Over the weekend sighting it in I started to have FTF and FTE, trying to determine if the ejector is bent or normal. -

Got everything mounted today. It required some dremel on the Vortex Venom, RIA told me it would to sit over the two posts. Glad I went with a plate, no gaps front or rear, and it sits on the two screw posts, and 4 others on the plate. -

So you just mounted the Sig Romeo Zero directly, no plate? Side battery access? What will be your final optic? I guess the front and rear of the optic fit up against the slide cut, so no movement? I did the same, ordered a 507C, but now guessing the 507K would work? Not sure why they cut a full sized (width) slide, with a Mini cut? -

I picked one up with hopes to install an optic, it gets interesting. Emailed RIA and was told it was a Glock MOS cut, it is not. Then they tell me only the Vortex Venom can be used, but they machined it with no front or rear posts, only 2 screw shallow posts in the middle. I emailed them back and fourth for more information about the optic cut or available plates, 8 days later finally talked to a guy and was told they had issues with the plates, some people are just mounting the Venom direct after they modify (chamfer) the holes on the bottom of the optic. I did not go that route due to my fear of impact and nothing to hold the optic other than the 2 screws. I modified a buddy's S&W plate #5 for Vortex Venom to fit the slide pocket, which has 4 posts, waiting on my optic to arrive. -
Welcome to the forum and back to the USA. Springfield does make an Optic Ready version of the XDM, I think only in 4.5" though. Plenty of good guns available in the Carry Optics space if you look around.

Yeah I wondered that, sounds like the same struggles we are having, which makes more sense. I found some Federal Champion SP primers a few weeks ago local shop, limit 1K per customer, It was the most I have ever paid for primers, $39.99. I have an 'new to me' open gun coming, Dan Bedell Shooting Solutions model. It will be some learning curves for me, tracking the optic and all that, I won't shoot it much but wanted to get it before things get really crazy. Wish us both good luck with Open!

Welcome to the forums, a great resource of information. How are reloading components and ammo up North? I hear plentiful, but not from a reliable source.

Great post, thanks for this tip !!!

Welcome, lots of people use HS6 powder for 9 major loads. Can be a tricky caliber to load due to only certain powders that can be used to not overflow the case. What powder did you end up using? Todd

Welcome, lots of info on IDPA and USPSA here in the forums. Many enjoy IDPA, I find that there are to many rules, and some things I don't like, so went the USPSA route.

I will have the Dawson Tool-less guide rod this week, ordered it this past weekend. Already have the Dawson magwell and mainspring, comes as a kit. I will let know, but weight should be below 43 oz with a magazine for sure! I will update the thread on how the install of the tool-less guide rod goes.

Is the Springfield that has that the Loaded 9mm Target model? Mine has a two piece guide rod, that I would like to get rid of some day. Just curious.
