I'll give that a try too, thanks.

 

Can you share the dimensions of the IFG for #1 and #5 when you get yours?

 

#1----- 8 1/2 inches

#5-----5 3/4 inches

 

Measured with stock sights and mag inserted with factory basepad.

In DA the hammer doesn’t fully cock. The bolo has a shorter stroke than a factory disco, but you can remedy that. I did in my gun, and it was a huge help.

How does one do this?

[Choosing an optic for my Q5 Match]

I'm a iron shooter 75% of the time so for me it was getting a red dot as low as possible. I went with a jpoint which I love. Shield rms is the aluminum version thats just as good if not better. 6-8 moa is the best for action shooting. the jpoint sits low enough that a can almost cowitness with my stock height front sight. a +.010 front sight would be perfect.

IFG stock 1 has a straight barrel and is idpa legal.

The eaa tanfo stock is not idpa legal

You can install a shadow 1 extended mag release on sp01 and 75 series for SSP

No currently produced Tanfoglio's are legal in IDPA.  None.

The ONLY CZ model IDPA legal is the SP-01 Shadow TARGET 2.  No other CZ's are IDPA legal, none.

Arex Rex Alpha.  42 oz.  I shoot it, it's great.  Has a Sig feel to it.

Suped up Beretta like a Langdon or a Wilson Combat, but they are on the light side 36 ounces or so.

 

That is it.  Maybe a Browning Hi-Power, but that thing is way outdated.

 

IDPA rules make it tough to find anything.

Good luck.

Wrong!!!

 

IDPA ssp legal

Tanfoglio stock 1

Tanfoglio limited pro

Tanfoglio p match pro

CZ sp01

all CZ shadow 1's other than accu shadow and target 2

CZ 75 all models 

 

If you go with a CZ get the shadow 91154. by the time your done adding all the CGW parts and sights you will have more money invested in a SP01. 

The shadow holds better resale value than a decked out SP01

 

[New pistol for both idpa and uspsa]

Check out the new Tanfoglio Stock 1 imported by IFG in texas.  

The stock 1 was designed for IDPA and is good for uspsa.

Its basically a Stock 3 thats been shortened.

 

I recently got one and love it.

The nice thing with the tanfo guns is you could get a stock 2 or 3 down the road for uspsa and the ergos will be the same.

 

The CZ shadow 1 is also a great gun for both too.

I used to have 2 Para framed pistols with STI slides. No problem but the fit may be a bit loose.

Thats what I'm worried about.

Its going to be a open gun so I need tight as possible.

I wont go with another para or rock island slide.

[Slide options for p18]

Has anyone replaced there slide on a Para with a non Para brand?

I want to convert it to open and need to get a new slide and barrel.

What 13lb spring were you running with this? Aftermarket flat wire springs like the IMSI won’t fit a rod that fat.

 

Wolf glock spring trimmed down.

[NEW: Walther Q5 Match - New awesome production guns showing up everywh]

Has anyone mounted a Jpoint or a Shield red dot on the Q5?

Do any of the mounting plates work?

I know Shield makes a lower adapter plate but its very expensive and hard to get.

 

[Q5 Match / Canik TP9SFx grips the same?]

I talked to Troy at Area 7 and he told me i can add or remove material anywhere except beavertail or that would aid as a thumb rest.

Im sure if you remove a small amount of material in your problem location and blend it so its not visible you would be fine.

[Q5 Match / Canik TP9SFx grips the same?]

No modifications to the beavertail area to stay in production.

 

see appendix d4 22.2 grips

No

Non OFM

grip modifications (addition or removal of material) that provide

function, such as a beavertail or thumbrest, or prohibited. Revolver grips

may be replaced with grips of any shape, profile, or texture. Adding or

removing material to change the profile

of Revolver grips is ALLOWED

I went with a Jager

The dimensions are perfect.

The washer that comes with it wont work. I used a stainless washer. 

13lb spring works but if worried go with 14lb.

Just installed a Sprinco trigger spring kit. I do not have a fancy pull gauge but the pull seems to have gone down by a pound. The trigger return is still positive. I like it.

Nice!! Must be new?

I went with the home depot spring pack and misc spring for the firing pin safety plunger. Of course a little polishing helps..

Has a nice reset like a 2lb cz trigger.

 

 

[Walther Q5 front sight (dawson)]

I have a Walther Q5 match coming and would like to order a dawson front sight. 

What height do you guys recommend?

I only shoot 147gr reloads.

 

I currently have a .195 H x .100 w on my walther ppq m2 5" (dawson set)

[Walther PPQ base pads (production)]

Ended up going with Springer Precision.

What a difference from stock pads.

Wish I made the the switch months ago.

I have the Springers. A friend has the TF pads, and they feel better in the hand, and are slightly longer. Go with Taylor. If I were buying them over again, I would.

Thanks!! wish I new if they used 6061 or 7075

How?  Pics?

 

Thanks,

 

 

I used epoxy putty that you can get at your local HD or Lowes.

I wrapped the grip with cling wrap then mixed the epoxy and applied it to the front and tapered the sides.

after a few hours it should be hard. Remove it then remove cling wrap and reinstall. The grip tape will hold it in place.

I use the medium back strap.
