Thanks for the quick replies. From what I see in the magazines, a lot of shooters use a 230gr. bullet. That's probably what I'll use. Have been using Clays and VV320 in my 45 lately.

What would be a good load for 45 in single stack? Thanks for your help, Dave

Is it legal to change a 10mm to a 40 and still be legal in SS? Thanks for any help, Dave

G-man, I looked at Dawsons site, and the only sights they had were still like the fixed sights. I would like to find a sight like a Bo-Mar that could be buried into the slide.

I've got a 1911 with a fixed rear sight (novak cut) that I want to change to adjustable sights. The problem is the base cut on the novak is much larger than the one on the adj. sight. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dave

Did S&W ever make a 625 V comp? I've never seen one, and wondered if there is such a thing. Any help would be appreciated.

I've been using the same one for almost a year now. Shows some wear, but still working.

I use a piece of plastic water pipe to strip the moonclips. you can pick a piece up at Menards for a couple of bucks. I make the piece long enough to hold 6pcs. of brass. You need a Dremel tool to cut the lip so it fits into the moon clip, then just twist. When you get 6pcs. in it tip it over to empty. Very easy to make, I've made several for my friends.

I want to get a new barrel for my ss 40. Which would be better for lead bullets? Any help would be appreciated, Dave
-
Thanks for all the help. I think for now, I'll change the springs, and just shoot it for now.

I'll be using the gun to shoot local USPSA matches. Thanks for all the help, Dave

Have a new Limited, and would like to know if there is any differences between the blue mags and the chromed ones Henning is selling? I would like to save a few dollars if possible. Also, need to get an action job done, where is the best place to go? Would the hammer group Henning sells do the trick, or does it need to go to a gunsmith? Thanks for any help, Dave

Does anyone know the price of the Gold Match and if they're available now? I saw them listed on the Austrailian web site, but can't find them on the EAA site. Thanks for any help, Dave
-
Hi, new to EAA, and saw 2 pistols I'm interested in. One is the Gold match, the other is a Limited custom GK. I would like to get a price on both guns, plus where to buy them. Thanks for any help you can give me, Dave

Mike, thanks for the quick reply.
-
Mike, that's what has me wondering how he did the barrel. It looks like he made a custom barrel to look like a stock barrel, otherwise I don't know how he would be able to machine the barrel for the setback. Also, does anyone know if S&W would install a 5" barrel on my 4" 625?
-
OK, the other question I have is, what barrel did he use? And is it a stock Smith barrel, or a custom? Thanks for all the info, Dave
-
Is there any advantage to a short cylinder, or just a new gimmick? Saw one on the web site, it looks pretty nice. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Dave

I would like to replace the stock sights on my TRP, and would like to know which will fit in the original slots? I really like the Heinie sights, would they fit? Thanks for any help, Dave
-
Thanks for all the information, Dave
-
When did S&W release the first L frames ? Thanks for any help, Dave
-
Is a bull barrel legal in SS? Thinking of getting a new barrel, and don't want to make a mistake. Thanks for your help, Dave
-
They look like Nills grips. I think they call those PPC or Bianchi grips.

Where can I buy the moon clip holder that holds 1 moon clip per post? I think it holds 7 clips all together. Thanks, Dave

My Valor's slide is at Rich's shop right now getting the adjustable sight installed. As soon as I get it back, I'll post some pic's. If you go with the Novak adj. sight, it leaves a gap between the sight and the slide.
