It was the slide. There is either a crack I can’t find or see. Or it’s warped from all the times I’ve gotten it too hot to touch. Or maybe it’s just worn out. Either way, once I changed out the slide, things went back to normal.

I’ve had them both apart. There are no obvious differences.

they both have the exact same internal electronics.

‘I’ve tried 3 different barrels. It has to be something in the lockup, but what, and is it something that can be fixed?

I’ve changed out the dot, and also tried 3 different hand loads, and some factory ammo. Some were better than other, but all still sucked.

I have 2 identically setup Sig P320 legions. I’ve been having issues with my practice gun. It won’t shoot a consistent group at 15 yards anymore, even from a rest. It used to be ok up until about 10-15k rounds ago. And since then it’s progressively gotten worse. It’s so bad now that it’s hard to even zero the dot. The gun itself has about 78k live rounds and atleast 100k dryfire presses. I though it might be the barrel, I switched that out, but it didn’t make any difference. It’s like it won’t lock up consistently anymore. ive attached a couple pics of the grouping of my match gun (which shoots great) and the practice gun. Anyone have any insight into what’s going on? I’d like to think it’s not worn out, but I guess it might be.

I have over 60k rounds through various legions with no issues. Mixed brass. That said, I did have a blow out in a regular X5 3 years ago. Not nearly as dramatic as some of the pics I’ve seen. The grip was undamaged, but the extractor blew out.

i pretty much assume this is bad on every R3 I have, I’ve gone through and adjusted the screw before I even install a new one. I also put a bit of vibra tight on there. Sometimes the tensioning screw will loosen over time as well.

I had this issue with most of my gen 5 glocks, all with OEM liners.

I read somewhere that federal uses sport pistol powder in their syntech bullets.

I don’t have a pic, but the optic doesn’t touch the slide on either end. That bothers some people.

did you even read the guys post? He specifically said it wasn’t a p320 X5.

it’s different underneath, on the older legions the non extractor side of the slide has a hollowed out section and you can see the screw holes from the bottom. The newer slides that accept the rmr/sro has a sealed/reinforced area for the optic screws and the holes aren’t exposed. ive circled the difference in the following pics. edit: the example of the older slide would normally only have 1 hole in the area I’m talking about, mine is direct milled for a r3 so there is an additional hole.

I’ve shot atleast 200k rounds through the X5 and X5 legion. I did have one extractor blow out a couple years ago. I suspect a double charge, but there is no way to be 100% certain. That said, IMO it’s a very reliable platform. ive never seen bulged cases like the above pics between 7 different guns.

I'm not sure actually. The same sized screw head is used in the springer precision plate for the SRO. The screws I purchased to direct mount the SRO had the same head stamp of YFS, so I assume they are the same manufacturer with the same problems. The manufacturer specs don't actually list the grade... - Monster Bolts - Official Monster-Bolts Fastener Store This listing is for #6-40 Flat Head Socket Cap Screws. These are new Alloy Steel screws with Thermal Black Oxide coating and use a Hex (Allen) key drive.

I used a pretty good snap on set, removing them is the problem. After they’ve been on for awhile and loctited they strip super easy. After having to drill a couple out, I started using some heat by default, and that made it much easier.

I wasn’t able to find torx in the flat head. The 2mm Allen key kind of sucks, very easy to strip out.

‘Those are right.

Trijicon absolutely is atleast partially fault. They designed the sight to keep the existing footprint, even though using the existing footprint causes the sight over hangs the ejection port on a lot handguns creating potential problems.

The first of many.....

If you look on the Rudy Project Shooting Team Facebook page there is a code to flag your account for a variable discount. It’s almost always atleast 35% and often more depending on holiday sales. https://www.facebook.com/rudyprojectshooting/

Like you, I had issues with inserts. I’ve been using the Rudy in frame rx with photochromic lenses. Not as specialized in different lighting conditions, but it adjusts well enough. And I really have no complaints.

The only time I’ve had an issue with the accept/deny not showing up, the cable between the tablet and motor was loose. I don’t think it will give you the option to proceed if the tablet isn’t communicating with the drive correctly.

Every 2 practice sessions. Each session is about 500 rounds.

I don’t think you can use the digital powder measure with anything other than the revolution. You for sure can’t use it with the autodrive made for the A Dillon.
