ARac40

FWIW, I have both CZ factory and Megar mags for my Shadow 2. They appear to be exactly the same. Both brands also accept the shock bottle aftermarket basepads. I’m not sure about Henning?

Anyone know of a good shop near the St. Louis / Metro East, Illinois area? Thanks!

Sounds like a follower issue to me... I’d say file down the contact point on the follower and go from there!

I mean index your equipment. So your normal draw from the holster becomes subconscious and quick. If his stuff isn’t in the same general area all the time he’s gonna have a different grip and position on the gun which is going to make things difficult for a quick sight picture / presentation. Obviously, I don’t expect table starts and barrels to be just like my holster draws. I know they are are going to be slower and not subconscious- and that’s where you’re eyes finding the sights come into play like you’re saying. im just saying stack the deck in your favor...

From reading your post, it sounds like consciously canting ur wrist down similar to how you present a glock would help too. Give it it a shot in dry fire and see if that helps!

Idk if this will help or not, but playing around with your holster placement could help fix your issue. I know it effects my grip / sight alignment if the holster is not in the spot I normally place it. Also, before you got the shadow, did you shoot a glock?

Hey Hawk, its your gun / parts, so obviously the Gina decision is yours, but it’s way easier and cheaper if you mess up to buy a new follower than it is to buy a new slide stop and fit it. Mall you need to do on the followers is sand/file away the circled area in the picture. Then just make sure the slide stop clears the follower and you’re all set. Beat of luck

I have a 15 lb main spring, 10 lb recoil spring. I left the factory disconnecter and factory seat spring. All worked out well.

Fwiw, I have a 2011 Edge in .40 with an Atlas trigger, an Atlas tuned egw sear and Atlas tuned hammer. Everything came good to go from the factory and dropped right in. The break feels like you’re snapping a glass rod. However, it is noticeably lighter than the stock STI fcg... probably in the neighborhood of 2.5 - 3 lbs. I’m not for sure tho, I don’t have a trigger pull tool. Best of luck, -T

I had the same issue with a DVC grip. I used some 3m double sided foam tape. It holds it in place and you can build it up to the fitment you want. I

Ben Stoeger Pro Shop is the Cheapest I’ve found!

Fwiw, this was posted on the STI Director of LE and Mil sales’ Instagram a little while back... I’m guessing that this will be the “new” edge, the Staccato P 5”. Hopefully it comes with adjustable sights and major pf caliber option.

I run a 10# recoil with a rubber buffer and a 15# main spring. No muzzle dip or any other issues pushing 180 gr. @ 170 pf.

Personally, I’d sell the 9mm you have and try to find a used STI 2011 Edge in .40 on the forum. Realistically, the stuff you want to swap is gonna cost in the neighborhood of $400 and you’re still going to shoot minor at the end of the day. Obviously, do what you want, but anything for sale is gonna be pre-tricked out with most of the stuff or all the stuff you want. Lastly, if you still want to trick your 9mm out, Dawson Precession will have all the stuff you want: .100 wide fiber optic front sight DVC undercut and reduced 2011 grip ICE Magwell Dawson mag release w/ 4-40 tap for bigger button. Best of luck!

Not trying to hijack your topic, but did you consider any factory .40 SS pistols? Or do those not exist? I was entertaining a SS .40, but that’s as far as I got with it. Thanks!

Also, idk how it is with 9mm, but for .40, the followers are different. A gen two follower will not sit flush to the top with a gen one tube. It sits about 1/4 of an inch low. It does still work however. I made a Frankenstein mag up for dry fire with oem parts from a gen two mag with an old gen one tube after I swapped everything for tti guts. I wouldn’t run it in a match tho. Best of luck, -T

I’m prolly a little late to the party, but if you don’t want to buy a new grip, you can send your existing one to them for $95 and they’ll DVC it up for you https://www.extremeshooters.com/STI-Grip-Service

Atlas all day!

Hey there! Idk if you’re still in the market or not, but Atlas just released a matched sear and hammer set that they tune prior to sale. You have to fit the hammer strut and make sure everything is set right just as mark previously stated, but man is it a nice trigger- like snapping a piece of glass! best of luck!

I’ve Ben trying to figure out a way to finish my Evo without sending it off. I’m gonna do the whole grip with this and see how it turns out. Thanks for posting this!

Thanks guys!

Who’s got the best price on them? Thanks!

I run Dawson base pads on Wilson etm mags they run perfect.

Reading about it, if you tune it to your load & springs, as echo tango stated, it’s supposed to reduce recoil as opposed to a radiused firing pin stop. Idk if that’s the case or not, just curious is all.
