I had to pinch mine with some channel locks while fully loaded. Just pinch a little at a time.

Same problem, where do you pinch them? Middle? Sides?Edges?

Sounds like the safety needs a little fitting.  

[Who makes the best grips for the TSO?]

I like these the best, most grippy, you would have to trim them

Based on some positive reviews I installed a CGW supplied extended firing pin and reduced power FP spring. Took it to the range to practice and I had several FTF, i'm uncertain if that was related to the random (but factory TSO) recoil spring I had in. I replaced the stock FP and FP spring and replaced the recoil spring with a CGW 13lb and the problem went away. Also important to note that my firing pin block/retainer nearly fell out, the firing pin was way to the front.

 

Factory FP stuff and the 13lb recoil had zero issues during my last match. I just swapped the stock hammer spring for an 11.5, keeping the 13lb recoil and i replaced the FP with the extended FP but did not swap the FP spring. I'm going to see if this works and since I have a much lighter main spring I may revisit the reduced power firing pin spring.

 

Has anyone else ran into those issues? I'm just trying to learn a bit tweaking things a little at a time to get a light trigger and a flat shooting gun. Next on my list is replacing the trigger, I have the floating pin and a choice of a couple triggers to try.

 

I used the extended FP, light FP spring and a 15lb hammer spring on a regular TS. Had the same problem after a couple of months. FP retainer fell half out during practice and I thought it was a fluke. Shot two matches back to back. Match one I had a FTF, and the FP block looked okay. Second match on day two and the FP, FP spring and FP retainer blew out. Swapped in a stock FP and FP spring out of my Shadow with the TS retainer and finished the match.  Back to stock parts.
