Still really liking this gun. Light enough on the hip for a match, and heavy enough to enjoy shooting.

I've always wanted a 226 x5. Is it really worth the price now that it's USA made?

Only difference betweem the two extensions is the ones for the A01LD go up the side of the mag so you don't see the mag itself. Other then that they are the same.

I got the carver one for the competitor model.

I'm actually really liking this competitor with a tungsten guide rod. Super fast and easy to move around. I also did the brass magwell and with both its dang near perfect. I don't think I'm gonna do any trigger mods. I like the factory trigger. And spending a bunch of money to gain a very little doesn't seem worth it. I've chased the prefect trigger with a bunch of other guns and have found that for me it just doesn't improve anything. I actually am going to send my Venom 2011 back to Don if it doesn't sell and have him redo the super fancy light trigger to have some more return tension. My fingers are not in the best working order and find I need a trigger that sort of forces my finger back and a good felt reset. Otherwise I don't always get the trigger reset.

The P series ones for magwell do work. But I think I'll order the other 5 in this part number.

I'd have to dremel pretty much all the way to the screw. I'd rather not. But thanks.

Hmmm... lemme take a look. I don't mind filing stuff.

Didn't even see these on the site. Found one for the P series mags I ordered to try.

Looks like the rear part of the henning extension hits the magwell.

Well magwell seems to be a waste of money. Fits great, feels great. But didn't know that the only base pads to fit it are for the 40 cal mags.

I've run at least 15k of both styles of the ginex SPP in a 1050 with the primer gold down die from everglades. I sent them till they a flat. Usually around .010". No issues in the press or shooting them.

Funny you say this. One of the clubs I still belong to, mostly because the membership cycle hasn't lapsed has a small and quick indoor match in the winter. 4 stages with one being a speed shoot and three being around 25-40 shots but very little movement. It's more technical with mandatory reloads, tight shots, ect... and only about 1.5hrs long. No work except pasting required. Well the lady and I decided to go shoot it today. Mind you neither of us has done any USPSA style shooting since August of this year. And I've gotten rid of my fancy guns. Decided to use my A01LD that has a little trigger work. Shot it with no magwell in LO. What a fun way to shoot that gun. I ha e an extra wide safety on it so clicking it off was easy. My score.... about as expected against some pretty good M class guys. But all in it was nice. Not sure I'd be up for an all day 8 stage local but it's still something I enjoy.

I've just gone to a local range day before the match if I felt I needed to recheck zero. Or had to use different ammo.

I had a TP9Sfx and Rival. Liked the trigger... didn't like the rest of the gun. Just didn't fit my hands well. Trigger though.... about perfect IMO.
