RE: the mag release tab screw
They must have used a lot of thread locker on mine. Even with the correct bit, I still stripped the screw head out before the screw was removed. Luckliy, it was out just enough that I could get ahold of it with a pair of small vice grips. It was a tough bitch literally till the very last thread when it finally came out. It was either some badass thread locker or it was cross threaded by who ever initially built the gun. I’ll try to locate a new screw somewhere.
Everyone I know that has tried to remove that screw have either stripped it or had a b**ch of a time getting it off.

I wonder if the finish is easy to remove by bead blasting?

My friend's mags would get hung up and some were pretty difficult to remove. Turns out the very back top of the mags were getting pinched by the sear cage. Knocked down the face of the cage a little and now mags drop free.

Anodize those orange and I will buy one so fast.
This!! I'd love me a matching orange thumbrest that fits the Standard IPSC box.

That looks awesome, Palmaris!

I've done my share of dry fire but no issues on my pistols yet.
If you reload, make a dummy round and squeeze hot glue or silicone into the primer pocket.
if you don't reload, grab one of your spent cases, use a small nail and tap out the old primer, clean out the old carbon from the pocket and fill with hot glue or silicone.
or order some Azooms from Amazon or your fav LGS.

What timing 'cause I just mounted a DPP on a DoubleTapSports frame mount on my Tanfoglio Ltd Custom. Unfortunately, I could only fit the DPP on the mount using just 2 boss. If I use four, the DPP won't sit flat on the mount. Do you I need all 4 bosses or can I get away with just two?
Oh, my barrel isn't ported and the frame came with a blast shield, should I use it? If I do, the DPP screws aren't long enough. I've got longer screws ordered just in case I do need to use the shield.
Note: I didn't get the correct sized screws for the frame mount, they require countersunk M4 screws so I just used some M4 cap screws I had, just to see how she'd look.

I used a DAA Race Master holster for the last two seasons and just picked up a Alpha-X. I also use the muzzle support with them. I personally won't go back to a standard holster for IPSC. I like that I can clear my holster within the first 1.5" and I don't get holster wear on my slide etc. Just train yourself to get in the habbit of engaging the lock when you're not running a stage.

Other than spare springs, I have a firing pin, extractor and slide stop.

George16 says it was easy to do but I am struggling badly. Every video out there is not for the TSO. Trying to get the trigger spring and the trigger bar subassembled seems impossible. Can you give me any hints?
Are you using a slave pin to keep the springs on the trigger during installation?

How do you get the bushing out?
A block of wood to support the front end of the slide, around the recoil spring channel area. The use a 11mm socket with a socket extension and a few firm hits with a hammer got mine to pop out. Be careful not to smack your slide.
Finally got time to hit the range today. I'm really liking the bushing upgrade. The tighter groups I'm getting is well worth the cost of the bushing, at least for me. My 9mm fitted barrel worked out beautifully as well. Running 9mm through my TSO felt like I was shooting 22LRs.
-
I guess you can file off the half-cock/safety notch from the hammer?
-
Curious as well. I just got an awesome deal on one (private sale).

I believe it is a locking style bushing like a 1911. You can send your slide in to get the mill work done by CZ Custom for their Accubushing or the other option is to change the factory bushing to a CGW 10X.
Edit: i should have stated, the mill work by CZC or CGW bushing would be for a non-Orange S2 as the Orange already has the upgrade.

There are two areas I had to remove material to fit the barrel. This is a 9mm barrel I had to fit for my 40SW TSO slide.
-
I can't seem to leave good alone... I switched out my TSO factory bushing for an Eemann Precision bushing. The factory bushing locked up well and the pistol is plenty accurte but I had a little bit of slop between barrel and bushing. I installed the new one and there is now zero play. Can't wait to try this puppy out.
Factory bushing....
New bushing... 0.012" difference

Thanks for the heads up on that.

Awesome! I'll tell him to preorder online with store pickup.
Thanks a bunch!

Glad it worked....just remember to blue lock tight in the set screws and when you get the over travel screw to where you want it back it off another half turn. If the limited is anything like the stock 3 and 2s then they like to move on you.

Good tip. I found out the hard way. I thought my reset was longer than usual, turns out the over travel screw was creeping. Removed it and the pre-travel screws, cleaned out with some rubbing alcohol and blue loctite it back. Hasn't moved yet.
-
Lol, glad it was an easy fix!
-
Back off the pre-travel screw?

A buddy is traveling down to Austin and looking to pickup some DAA gear. Any recommendations for well stocked brick & mortar stores? Is Ben Stoeger a virtual shop or does he have an actual store? Thanks!

I bought an extended mag release from Patriot Defense that's nicer to work than the factory one.
For the extended safety, I picked up the Tanfoglio Custom extended ambi-safety.
