  1. Same experience here. I went from a 550 to 650 and finally 1100. I sold the 650 and keep the 550 for load development, reloading .45 ACP/.308 while the 1100 is setup for loading 9mm/.223. I mainly bought the 1100 for it’s swaging feature since I process a lot of .223.
  2. I just made the same order from brownell’s. I ordered the 2,000 SPP and 2,000 SRP which each come with a $75 gift certificate. Then got free shipping and $30 off by using discount code “RTC” because my order was more than $300.
  3. Glad you you got all the info you need. That would had been a costly mistake if you traded your scorpion for it.
  4. That’s not a shadow 2 orange but a regular shadow 2. Shadow 2 Orange has a bushing like a 1911 and I don’t see one in front of that gun. The slide is newer ( D serial# 2019/2020) with an older barrel and frame (C serial# for 2017/2018). What are you trading for it?
  5. Yes. The one with the “orange” on the grips is the latest model.
  6. I wet tumble and then run the brass in corn cob/walnut shells for a few minutes. The dust from the corn cob and walnut provides graphite-like lubrication and prevents any sticking with the MBF funnel during reloading on my 1100. It’s an extra step I wouldn’t mind doing since I got all the time in the world being retired.
  7. I would highly recommend getting the FW Arms Auto centering Decapper. It’s well-made and will suit you better when you get your MK7 press. I have both of these on separate tool heads and it makes processing Brass a cinch. The primer popper is better in preventing primer pull back.

  8. Looks nice! How long did it take to make it across the pond? Looking forward to your review.
  9. Thanks. The different grit of sanding drums made it easy in blending it really well.
  10. I’m glad CZ is listening to their customers. I also have to use a dremel to blend the mag well on my TSO.
  11. It’s a 3D printed metal. Cost $25 plus $5 shipping.
  12. Did you replace the safety? One of the reasons for a safety lever falling out is if the detent was not installed correctly or was not reinstalled at all. It’s what holds and keeps the right hand safety lever in place. The detents (and detent spring for the left side) are so small I always use a white towel when taking my gun apart so I can see them when they fall out. The right side doesn’t use a spring like the left side detent. Good luck.
  13. Check this link out. A guy at Sigtalk was able to make one. https://www.sigtalk.com/threads/trijicon-sro-battery-cap-removal-tool.398755/#post-5611406
  14. The spaceship’s design was based off of Bezos’ bald head which looks like a dickhead .
  15. Meopta Meosight III, Delta Optical MiniDot HD 25, and Meprolight MicroRDS use a footprint that is very similar to the one used by Docter. The four sockets, one in each corner, are in the exact same places. The holes for the screws, however, are not. This is why Meopta Meosight III, Delta Optical MiniDot HD 25, and Meprolight MicroRDS cannot be mounted on every adapter designed for the Docter/Noblex footprint. Several adapters are designed so that both Docter/Noblex footprint sights and Meopta Meosight III/Delta Optical MiniDot HD 25/Meprolight MicroRDS can be mounted on them (see the images below). This info was taken from here: https://optics-info.com/footprints-on-red-dot-sights/
  16. Very nice. No problem with the choice of background music. It actually matches your shooting .
  17. If that was an overspray of polycoat, use some fine compound as @eerw stated and go from there. While you’re at it, double check the thumbrest screws and make sure they don’t protrude to the frame mounting holes too. My TSO and czechmate were tight initially but were fixed by using a fine compound while racking it multiple times until it was smooth. It’s still tight but not as tight as when it was brand new.
  18. More than likely, your ammo’s OAL is too long. Do the plunk and spin as MM stated or send the barrel to him for reaming.
  19. If your 1100 came with the new and thicker version of the Dillon shell plate, there’s no need to buy the aftermarket ones. I’m using the stock shell plate for processing and reloading 9 and .223 without any problems at all.
  20. One more and you’ll have 50 posts. Whatcha selling ?
