  1. Hey there,

     

    not sure if you’re looking for duty use (retention or not), but RDR Gear makes their own holsters and sells Safariland stuff. It’s usually in stock. Also Staccato has several choices on their website if you haven’t checked there yet. 
     

    best of luck!

    you will likely prefer the 11lb out of the three

     

    Tried all three, you were right. The 11# had the best return to battery for me with minimal front end dip.

    I can’t remember what the weights were but I think this is talked about in the TSO threads in the CZ section.  When I ran the TSO’s, I ended up throwing those springs away and running Cajun Gun Works recoil and hammer springs. 

    Page 20 something lol:

  4. another option is go with the mos, but get an aftermarket plate. This is what I have and their explanation below. Forgive me, but I’m not able to post the hyperlink...
     

    The CHPWS V4 Series of adapter plates has evolved over the past five years because the OEM mounting plates are the weakest link in the Red Dot System.
     
    The new MIL/LEO V4 Series addresses the mounting hardware while retaining our industry leading thread engagement.

     
    All new V4 plates will feature our Patent Pending replaceable stainless steel T-Nuts and stainless steel Torx® head screws which are used to mount the RDS (Red Dot System) to the V4 plate giving you the ability to replace the mounting hardware without replacing the entire plate.
     
    The V4 Series retains it’s industry leading six to seven full revolutions of thread engagement for maximum retention.  The secret to retaining MRDS’s on pistols is not the material a plate is made from – IT’S THREAD ENGAGEMENT!!!

  5. Santa got me a CZ TSO in .40. It comes with what appear to be recoil springs in several different weights. I read through the manual and didn’t get any clarification as to what the spring weights are. 
     

    Does anyone know how to tell what is what?

     

    any help is appreciated! Thanks!

  6. I have a bottle of full synthetic 5w20 mobile 1 mixed with a bottle of full synthetic automatic transmission fluid. Costs about $15 and you have more lubrication than you’ll ever need lol. 
     

    I also run Lucas red and tacky on my rails for pistol and bolt carrier groups for rifle. 
     

    this works for me in the Midwest no matter the temperature...

  7. The Springfield operator with an x300 will accommodate a 2011 with a tlr variant or x300. That’s their generic 19/2011 5” holster that works for 5” guns. Watch out if you order anything for a staccato, most of their railed pistols are 4.1” or 4.4” which won’t work.  
     

     

  8. Worst case scenario, if it gets “ugly enough” cosmetically, you can sand it down and polish it back up... being that it’s aluminum it shouldn’t take more than a little bit of elbow grease to make it look new. 
     

    personally, I like the beat up look... makes me feel like I’m putting in the work to get better!

  9. Sorry for the delay guys, but I just got the grip this week and was out of town until Saturday night.
     

    Overall the grip looks great and the Cerakote Finish is well done. I put the frame on one of my other pistols and it popped right in without any fitting (it was an STI Frame with a TG series serial number).

     

    My only concern is that while on the frame, all of my magazines would bind during the last quarter inch of insertion prior to seating. I haven’t messed with it yet, but looks like I have to put a little relief into the rear side of the frame for the magazine to seat comfortably (like the grip angle of the grip is off by a few degrees). In any event, I’m swamped with work at the moment, so hobbies have to take a back seat before I can investigate any further. 
     

    Overall, The grip is sweet. My Dawson mag release fit right in as did the x-line vario trigger I had laying around. 
     

    I had a Limcat magwell laying around, but it would not pop right on. Looks like I’d have to relive the front strap to make it fit. 
     

    let me know if you have any other questions!

     

     

  10. All of mine are 17 round capacity mags. I think the 18s are a bit longer or something. All the same I didn’t have any issues with either mag accepting the aftermarket pads. I think you should be fine.
