  1. Hi all,

    Anybody have any recommendations on where I can get a 9mm barrel for my .40 TS?

    I've checked CGW, CZ USA, etc but haven't found one. I know there are some Czech sites out there that will ship to the US but I'm not familiar with them.

     

    CZC has their version of the barrel in stock, but I'm not sure if aside from minor fitting expected if it'll work for a .40 to 9mm conversion, so if anyone knows that would be helpful also.

    EDIT:  AND I'm an idiot. Just read the other thread on a similar topic where somebody confirmed this barrel worked for them with standard barrel fitting.

     

    Or lastly, if anyone has one they aren't using, I'm happy to pick it up off of you.

     

    Thanks!

  2. I installed this today into an Odin Zulu and quickly realized the combination wouldn't work due to the secondary buffer spring collapsing we'll before the magnets release. Does anyone have any experience deleting the Zulu's secondary spring, with a spacer of some sort?

     

    Or perhaps picking up a pistol buffer tube, but then I don't think I'll get the length of pull I'd want with the Zulu shoulder piece.

    How hard is it when it cures? Does it get eaten up by mag insertion? 

    So far so good. I saved maybe an 1/8" of space at the bottom to fill with epoxy, so there's a good structural layer of epoxy guide the mags in.

    My limited gun has tungsten packed I. The backstrap aswell. 

    Yeah, always effective but I feel where this really shines is in CO classes, where we can't just stick a fat brass magwell on where the weight is more effective.

  5. Saw a post by geraldskip wondering how to get more weight in the gen 3 Glock grip so I thought i'd post what I did.

     

    I was able to get a little over 5oz flush fitting in my gen 3 glock 17 grip.  Previously had a 2 ounce grip plug in it from Dawson.


    I bought tungsten putty and tungsten shot (for the higher density) and mixed them together.  Then lined the inside of the grip with a thin layer of epoxy, and shoved it in.  Once inside the tungsten putty allows it to mold to the backstrap shape.  Added a little more epoxy after insertion to lock it in.  Once cured, sanded the epoxy flush and painted.  Can't even tell it's there unless you really look, and the shape of it acts as a small magwell.


    Don't have any pics of finished product but do have a couple of the in progress.  Could up the weight even more by increasing the ratio of tungsten shot to tungsten putty.
