Practice is the best to tool to use for consistency. I tried grip tape it’s a great reference point, but it’s slower if you miss your index point. It is also slower to slide your hand off if needed. Angled foregrips, broomsticks, tactical Timmy cut down vert grips all change where and what position your hand can be in. IMO find you stock position from collarbone to shoulder pocket, set your lop. Then find the best position for your support hand on the handguard and practice hitting that same spot over and over and over.

You can get the +5/6 Weinstein Tactical clone basepads for under $10 on ebay, and they work flawlessly.

Hate to bring up an old thread, but maybe there has been a change to their warranty, because they state that if you mess up the set screw, you may void the warranty. From the Taran Tactical Innovations website:
"The pin set screws are set with Loctite® at the specific tension we recommend, and will generally never need an adjustment. Tightening the base pad screw is not recommended and may be difficult because the screw is set with Loctite®; trying to force the set screw to turn could result in stripping the screw. We do not warranty base pads for stripped heads on set screws or filed retaining pins."
I just sent them an email for a missing base pin that fell out yesterday. I hope I get a reply soon. I might call in a couple of days, but in reading this thread, seems like that they are cool to deal with.
That’s funny tti doesn’t trust mere mortals to touch their precious pins. I can measure one give you the size. If you can get it from a hardware store? -
If you’re getting nose dives open the feed lips up some. As @Sarge eluded to the mag catch on ck is lower, causing the bullet to hit the ramp lower. The tighter feed lips the longer the mag holds on to the bullet. You want to open the lips and have the bullet not only set higher but hit higher on the ramp.

I prefer ambi shielded on my open gun. While I have only used the right side safety a few times, it was nice to have the times I did need it. I haven’t had a issue of inadvertently flipping the safety with the atlas high rides.

When you first install the precious tti basepads and load them it will hang up near 35 rounds. Take a uplua place it on the top round and smack the bottom of the basepad. That will allow you to load to 40-41.

@barrysuperhawk what bolt are you using? To me it sounds like your bolt is non ramped and is beating the hammer back vs being ramped and setting the hammer back.

That good thing to know on the 512. I have a 510 at exactly the same conditions above and the dot washed out so bad I turned on the laser to shoot. Does the 512 'tunnel vision' a little bit or is it just as airy as the 510?
Love the Holosuns; have the 403 and and 510 and they are fantastic. I personally run the circle-dot.
When I’m shooting the 512 I don’t notice the housing. If I’m just looking down the 512 not shooting, I notice the housing. The 510 with shroud removed definitely has more of a cmore on steroid type feel when looking thru. It’s going to be preference.
I chose the 512 for the enclosed housing. If you look at the 10 day forecast in my area 6 days have chance of rain 4 don’t. Also in sunny conditions I haven’t had glare or for wash out with the 512 or 510. With the 510 indoor or really sunny I would get the emitter reflection but very rare.

I don’t know if anybody has posted on this yet found this on Facebook today ...
anybody have further information ?
I don’t really love their long basepads. They have sharp edges and I’ve seen a bunch of them explode. But I would love to have their metal mags for the PCC. I always have issues with the feed lips bending and whatnot. I’ll be waiting to buy a few of the metal Glock mags.
go to mbx’s Instagram or Facebook -

Now, if someone like Max ever finds out about Altra King shoes, there'll be no catching him!
By chance what is the heal toe drop on those? And tread life? -

Ha ha ha haaa... yes sir, you got it.
From my limited experience, it takes a lot of hard work off the field to get better. But there are always people out there that think they can equip themselves to the top. Powder, bullets, special hand cremes, etc..etc.. It never stops for some people. One friend of mine has 5 PCC rifles. Meanwhile, I am not changing anything while I work on my own improvement.
I wonder it is a PCC thing?
Same shooter has won every pcc national with a different pcc and ammo every national. Question is what shoes was he wearing? IMO once you have a reliable pcc and tuned load the rest is on the shooter. -

So... Max... how does it feel to be so special that they drool over your rifle?
I’m honestly more interested in the shoe swap. Why did he drop inov8? Is it because of the color change?(new blue is ugly) are boombahs more comfortable? better traction? do they make his entry and exits faster? Is he able to stay planted better while $&@$ whipping wide transitions? I need answers -

@Maxamundo It’s very possible I installed the eclipse wrong, with ar gold I can consistently get .11s. I only tried it for maybe 300-500 rounds.

HiperFire recently sent me a set of updated toggle springs and a matched hammer spring to go with them... It lowered the trigger pull about 3oz... Not huge, but I'll take it...
I've been watching/reading some of the HiperFire white papers... Interesting stuff... It seems that the toggle system has to be balanced to get the toggle over center point correct... It has to go over center to lighten the pressure on the sear and then go over center when the hammer strikes the primer... Thinking that a lighter hammer spring and a lighter toggle set would keep the ratio correct, but lower the pull weight.
I agree with the lighter hammer spring, but I was under the impression the heavier toggle springs lowered the trigger pull weight. -
I would buy cr speed pouches if they made Chris Tilleys graffiti pouches available.

When someone wants to try my open pistol I always warn them that they better be prepared to buy a new gun!
I wish I would have been given that advice.
They say speed is freedom of the soul....after shooting open I agree.

I think we all froze Max's video on that frame...
Curious to how much he's modified the Eclipse trigger and what its pull weight is... I'm guessing it's much different from a stock Eclipse.
I was thinking about what he could have done. Theory I have is he can shorten the stroke more with hiperfire and it’s more reliable.With hiperfire possibly polish the edges and put a couple k rounds thru it. Will probably get sub 2lbs with no take up. Now if you could take the overtravel out of the hiperfire and be sub 2lbs with no take up, that would be a game changer if reliable.
