Thanks for the help!

My friend works at The Attic and shoots a Redback. I could ask him if he has any spare buffers if you need.

That's very generous, thank you.  But I just talked to The Attic and they are out of stock.

 

Cheers

[Phoenix (Swiss) spare parts?]

Thanks.

 

Do you think this means Kriss will work me up with buffers?  They are at the top of my list.

[Phoenix (Swiss) spare parts?]

Curious to know if obtaining spare parts can be done via the motherland, or is The Attic the only game in town?

 

I'd love some spare buffers for my Redback, but The Attic is out-of-stock.

 

Any insights are appreciated.

Cheers

Glock 17L

I'm finding the small grip module is the ticket for me.  Completely different feel in the web of my hand between my thumb and index finger.  And with the medium backstrap, my POA was adjusted perfectly.

 

Really, really impatient about getting a five inch model.  Hopefully this year

Apparently Springer Precision is also selling a guide rod, and springs. 14-22lbs, supposedly for Echelon and XDM, 4.5" and 5.25" versions. They probably know what stock spring weighs.

Waiting for DPM Systems and their version . . .

I would have thought about it, had it been a steel frame

[Radian Afterburner for G17?]

Thanks.  Fingers crossed.  I tried the PMM, but didn't like the threaded installation.  I think Radian is the ticket, albeit still vaporware.

[In your personal experience, has moving from a 1-6x to a 1-8x (or even 1-10x) made a huge difference?]

The best thing about folks moving to 1-8x and 1-10x are all the cheap 1-6x on sale!  Got a screaming deal on my Kahles!

[Guncrafter, Atlas Athena, Nighthawk trs comp]

Sure wish Nighthawk would do carbon steel options

Here's my 17L with BoMars.

NIce!  The best Glock out there, and Bomars to boot!

[Glock 19 upper on glock 48 lower]

But a fifteen-round Shield Arms magazine will make a G48 equal (or greater) than a G19 

[Staccato versus prodigy]

Interesting.  It seemed like the Prodigy public release was originally messy.  Glad to hear it's being worked out

 

[Staccato versus prodigy]

So what's the consensus on the Prodigy's original issues?  Magazine related?

[Radian Afterburner for G17?]

Anyone know if they are real?  (G17, not G19)  And if so, availability?

Relevant to my interests

 

Love the low mount height and no plates for optics.  It looks like PDP competition to me.

Thank you!  
 

And yes, this guide rod of yours is completely different than mine.  It must have something to do with the fact that I have a very early TSO (2016)

 

I went ahead and ordered an aftermarket rod from Cajun Gunworks that appears similar to yours.  And if that doesn’t work, I’ll be on the lookout for whatever guide rod you have.

Any chance you could take a picture or measurement of this guide rod?  Mine was supposed to be stock too, but it appears very different, and measures on 95mm

 

Much appreciated

The ssi tungsten one is the same length as my stock one so that won’t help. 
 

Good to know.  Thanks

 

I guess I'll see if someone will turn me a custom-length guide rod.

Mine is the stock guide rod and I do have the shock buff installed

 

That must be the difference. I'm not using the shock buff.  Thanks for the info however.

I need to look at mine, I did the exact same thing to my TSO and I didn’t have this issue, I’ll get it out tomorrow to see what it looks like 

 

That would be awesome.  Thank you

[Tactical Sport Orange - guide rod options?]

Agreed.  The plug does contain an angled lead-in chamfered surface to help direct the guide rod toward the center hole.  But like I mentioned, CZC only advises a modified guide rod with a matching lead-in angle at the tip.  I'm hoping that will work, but I'd rather have the plug capture the guide rod the entire time.   In other words . . .  a longer guide rod, or a longer plug

[Tactical Sport Orange - guide rod options?]

I don't like this current condition, and a tapered tip guide rod can't be the only option. 

 

I feel like a longer guide rod would be engaged with the bushing plug throughout the stroke of the slide.  In other words, I'm trying to eliminate this potential interference between the tip of the guide rod and the bushing plug.  I believe a longer guide rod is a more reliable solution.

 

 

[Tactical Sport Orange - guide rod options?]

I recently had my TSO upgraded with CZC's Accu-Bushing setup.  A much tighter barrel fit than the original bushing.  No more discernable muzzle play at full lock-up.

 

The Accu-Bushing comes with a new bushing plug, and my original guide rod just barely enters the bushing plug.  I've had issues reassembling because the tip of the guide rod lodges itself against the back of the new bushing plug.  I've talked to CZC about this, and their only option is an upgraded guide rod that features a tapered tip to allow it to more easily enter the bushing plug as the slide travels rearward. 

 

I'm going to try this for now, but I'm curious to know if I have any options for a longer guide rod?

 

My current guide rod is 95mm, but I'd be happier with 100mm or even 105mm.  Does such an option exist?  I see a few aftermarket replacement guide rods for the TSO, but I can't find specific dimensions.

 

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
