Finally read the FAQs

Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. Shot a 6 stage steel challenge match with it last weekend and it performed great. Had some guys there that shoot revolver's and they thought it was my usual amazing work, not a drop in. This is with a freshly installed unit, I'm sure it'll get better with use. SJC
  2. Dialed it down to 6-3/4 lb for reliable fed primer ignition, meaning I shot 10 moons consecutively without a FTF or any other mechanical issues. Nice primer strikes too. 7 lb ignited the CCI + Win primed rounds without issue. With this kit, It only took me 45 minutes to get a reliable 6-3/4 lb trigger pull with fed primers. By far the best DIY revolver trigger enhancement kit I've ever used. Now it's time to Loctite the strain screw and see if it'll walk the walk.
  3. With my already tuned return + main springs using primed cases in my really broken in 929, I'm getting reliable ignition with Fed primers at 6.5 lbs, but not with any other brand I have. CCI,Win,Unis. At 7 Lbs, I'm getting reliable ign with Fed, CCI and Win, but not Unis. A smooth and slick 7lbs, with no fitting or tuning needed. This is very nice results for a drop in kit and even though I had my 929 set to reliably ignite feds at 6lbs(Thanks to Warrens tutelage), I'm going to leave the kit in and see what happens after a couple thousand rounds. I kept it set at 7lbs and will do some live ammo testing tomorrow, where I'll see how low it can go. Bravo.
  4. Any news from someone that's been lucky enough to receive a kit from the peddler ? SJC
  5. It's not what you see, it's what you feel and what's reality. A 4lb reliable and retainable DA trigger pull is a unicorn. With the help of toolguy, my 929's trigger is better than any other custom worked on trigger I've had the pleasure of pulling and I don't think can get any better or reliable, but I'm all for supporting the advancement of anything to do with revolvers, that also supports a great guy in the process.
  6. Looking forward to the review and maybe seeing how it works firsthand in the future. SJC
  7. How's the pre ordering going ? Comp season is approaching quickly and I need all the help I can get ! SJC
  8. Ordered a kit as well. Thanks for all of your help in the past. What goes around, comes around. SJC
  9. Can someone tell me what's going to happen to the future of the shooting sports if Biden is elected and his firearm laws are passed, making any weapon capable of accepting a magazine with over 10 round capacity and any magazine with over 10 round capacity Illegal, unless serializing, registering and paying a $200 fee for each firearm + magazine ? In NY were already living the 10 round mag dream, but not paying the firearm fee.
  10. Front sight Red F/O Rear sight Double green F/O Put red dot between green dots and your good to go. SJC
  11. One thing I've noticed when practicing reloads with moon's loaded with dummy rounds , is that you need to practice with some type of padding on the floor for the moons to fall onto, as they do get damaged when dropping on a hard floor and don't work good afterwards. I've gotten away from using dummy rounds and just use over sized brass, so I can practice ejecting how it happens at a match(ejecting empty brass) and the over sized brass is easy to load back into the cylinder and won't get banged up as much when hitting the floor. Otherwise, try not to miss and you won't need to reload as much !!!! SJC
  12. I took it out ASAP and was going to fill it in, but it makes a nice access port for doing a quick internal flush and lube.
  13. In the flintlock muzzleloader world, if a ball gets stuck in the barrel, there's a screw tip that fits on the ram rod that you use to screw into the lead projectile to pull it out. I would try that method to remove the dowel and then ram the projo out with a brass rod. I would never use a drill in a barrel unless you have another to replace it. SJC
  14. I had the BB grips, but like the factory grips, they were too thin for my hand, so I ended up trying and have been using the Hogue grips I borrowed from my S&W 500. Hogue # 19022. SJC
