    I didn't think they would work.  I picked up some Aguila SuperExtra 22lr ammo to shoot in mine.  So far that's been working fine, and it's pretty cheap, so I may get a bunch more and just stick with that ammo.

    Mine really likes the Aguilla. It runs reliable and accurate.

    Does anyone know if the CCI Quiet ammo will cycle in the G44?

    Personally I’m not sure why you would want to, but I have a buddy that wants to know before investing in a pile of it. I think it’s a 49gr bullet going just over 700 FPS.

    Thanks.

    I tried the Quiet in my G44.  No luck with it.  

  3. I have a SPS Vista with a DVC grip. I would like a more aggressive grip without spending a fortune. I tried the 2011 grip tape kit that Dawson sells. It sticks great to my STI Edge grip but not to the DVC grip. Any ideas?  Does the Talon grips have better adhesive?  

  4. I finally had a chance to test it after the Dawson Precision Glock Adjustable Sights were installed.

    https://dawsonprecision.com/dawson-precision-glock-adjustable-sight-set/

    I tested the same 6 types of ammo that I tested with the factory sights in place to see if there was any function changes with the new sights.
    This is the list of ammo with the results.

    Eley Force - Functioned perfectly

    CCI Standard Velocity - Occasional Stove Pipes

    CCI Clean Red (1235 FPS) - Functioned perfectly

    CCI Clean Black (1070 FPS) - Lots of stove pipes

    Aguila Super Extra(1255 FPS) - Functioned perfectly

    SK Standard Plus - Occasional Stove Pipes.

    So it does appear that the extra weight of the Dawson Sights has slowed down the slide enough to need the higher velocity ammo. I even intentionally rode the slide with the thumb of my support hand and it had no effect on operation with the Eley Force, CCI Clean Red, and Aguila Super Extra.
     
     
  5. Yesterday I installed a set of Dawson Precision Glock Adjustable Sights.   https://dawsonprecision.com/dawson-precision-glock-adjustable-sight-set/

    The factory sights were easy to remove and the new sights installed without any issues.  Some early reports have stated that the extra weight of the Dawson sights have had an effect on the guns ability to cycle.  This week I will test the same 6 types of ammo that I tested with the factory sights in place and see what the results are. This is the list of ammo.

    Eley Force

    CCI Standard Velocity

    CCI Clean Red (1235 FPS)

    CCI Clean Black (1070 FPS)

    Aguila Super Extra(1255 FPS)

    SK Standard Plus

    Why do you say that the 22/45 are better for rimefire challenge?

     

    I just have a lot more experience with my 22/45's. But I am liking the G44.

    If you do not mind asking...low 400 or high 300 ?  What are you using it for? Is it your first 22 and is there a big difference that would make Glock 44  stand out? I am trying to convince myself here..lol

    High 300's.  I will shoot in the GSSF matchs and plink with it.  There's better steel challenge and Rimfire challenge guns out there. I have 2 22/45 lite's for those. One with irons and one with optic. It's nowhere near as accurate as they are but it's still lots of fun to shoot.

  8. I picked up mine today. Cleaned it and then went to the range. I tested some 6 different kinds of ammo and had zero jams or FTF's. Fun little gun. 

     

    Ammo Tested:

    Eley Force

    CCI Standard Velocity

    CCI Clean Red (1235 FPS)

    CCI Clean Black (1070 FPS)

    Aguila Super Extra(1255 FPS)

    SK Standard Plus

  9. I was having the same problem on a different gun. A gunsmith told me to clean everything really well and put a thin layer of red thread locker between the frame and the mount and then use the red on the screws. Clean off any thread locker that oozes out with a paper towel. I have shot 10k rounds through it and it's never moved.
