    Has anyone purchased the sig pro cut slide? Im interested mainly to upgrade to the r1pro mount. I guess its a bit pricey for just that reason but I was wondering if Anyone has compared it to factory X5

    Unfortunately it will not work with the X5 due to the barrel not fitting.  It is mainly made for non-Xseries P320s that want to add the slide cuts and optics option.

    The SI mag release had a very VERY snug fit in my frame, it wouldn't move freely at all so I would've had to file/sand down the catch to make it fit better if I kept it.

     

    Like I mentioned, it would've been nice because I only would have needed a longer screw, but I have all tools at work to drilling and tapping so it worked out just as well.

    Sounds good.  I also think the SI release is angled when the extension is not installed, so it might have angled the Shadow2 pad out too far as well.

    What size drill bit for the M3 tap, 7/64? I ended up getting a Shadow 2 button made out of a G10 from https://lokgrips.com/gun-grips/cz/cz-shadow-2/accessories/mag-release-button/

    and was going to give this a shot with a spare mag catch I have.

     

    I was going to try a Strike Industries extended mag catch but it doesn't fit my X5 properly; with that I could've just got a longer M2 screw and put the pad right in.

    Can you tell me why the Strike mag release did not work with your X5?  I have one in my X-compact that is working fine and I thought the mag release was identical to the X5.  Thanks.

    Has to be more to it than just Max (and Lena and Daniel) shooting for them. I wouldn't expect Glock to be at 30% just because they could shoot for them, or S&W. The SIG must have some distinct advantage in CO that the other guns don't. But then if that is true, why wasn't it reflected in Production, where SIG only had 8% and CZ shows 48%.

    Do you think it has to do with a many of the new Sig models coming milled for an optic compared to the other manufactures, therefore it is easier for people to get into CO by just picking up a sight and attaching it?

    So many to choose from!  I do appreciate all the recommendations, of course.   

     

    I found the Hiperfire Reflex for $190 with free shipping at Delta Team Tactical.  It's starting to sound tempting, as long as I can verify that this is a reputable outfit (Delta Team Tactical, I mean).  Anyone ever dealt with them?

     

    There's a Cabela's within driving distance, so I might have to check out the AR Gold as wel

    If you want to save a trip to the store, call your Cabela's and ask for item IK-233765. Just have to tell them flat or curved too.

  6. I would reach out to them on Facebook, if you have an account.  Robert is pretty fast at getting back to people. 

     

    Edit: I just sent him a facebook message with a link to this thread as well in case you don't have facebook.

    Ordered Red Hill Tactical holster for XFive on May 3 and it was delivered today. They claimed about 30 days, and they were spot on. Looks great by the way, nicely done RHT.

    That's good to hear. I ordered mine May 2nd, so hopefully it comes in soon as well.  Now if I could just get Sig to send my X5 to my LGS already! 

  8. So I picked this up used and it was delivered today.  Everything looked great until I turned on the illuminated reticle at full power.  I don't know if I have ever seen something like this.  The haze and smudge are definitely inside of the scope.  Now that I did some searching online, I am seeing that a few other people have had this same issue with these scopes.  I'm sure that Vortex will take care of it, but I was just shocked. Has anyone else here ever seen something like this?

  9. I couldn't agree more.  I waited 2 months for my M3k and now feel the same way.  Don't get me wrong, I love my M3K.  I picked up a MOA precision +5 tube and follower for about $100, so I am at about $700 so far. I have already looked into replacing the charging handle and bolt release with the MOA ones, but then what was the point in getting a M3K?  All it would have at that point over a 24" M3000 is a larger safety,  slightly opened loading port and a higher stamped serial number so that the port could be opened more.  If I was to do it over I think I would go with the 24" M3000 and use the extra $100 towards those other parts.

  10. I just joined recently, but I was able to both see and post in the classifieds in the last week.  Maybe that was before you set this new restriction.  I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way, and I can understand not being able to start a new thread to sell stuff before 50 posts, but not being able to see the classifieds or post that you want to buy something is a bit unfortunate.  It makes it a bit more difficult for members like me who are just getting into 3 gun and would rather save some money by picking up used items here in the classifieds

  11. For me, it would be between the Stoeger and the 1301. However, I would probably go with the 1301 if it were the 24" because of the better quality and softer shooting. But you stated that the 1301 you can get is the 21" so it's a toss up.

    May I ask why you would pass on the VersaMax tactical?

    I am also a bit concerned that the 1301 in 21" might be a bit short, especially with a longer tube on it.

  12. Hello everyone. I am new to these forums and am thinking about giving 3 gun a try. I have a pistol and rifle, but no shotgun. That's where you all come in. I would like to list my options to get your expert opinions to help me make a decision.

    #1. New stoeger M3k. $630 at my local Cabelas ( I know I can get it cheaper online, but I have like $600 in Cabelas gift cards that I'm stuck with). This was my first choice but Cabelas had been trying to get me one for literally 2 months now and is having no luck. If I wait a while u can probably get one from them.

    #2 New Beretta 1301 comp 21in. $780. Again at cabelas. This was recommended as an alternative to the M3k by the manager. That is if he can get the only one in the company sent to my store. These gift cards are really screwing me.

    #3 Lightly used Remington Versa max tactical. $575 from a local private sale. Then I just have to dump the gift cards somehow.

    I know the M3k and 1301 would each need a tube, so I'm looking at $80 on top of the listed prices, While the tactical comes with one. The down side to the tactical is that I don't think the loading port is opened up like the other two.

    I'm sorry for the long post, especially being my first here, but I am just trying to see what you all would do in this situation. Thanks.
