  1. Yes, i tested it. I think so. Can i do something to the extractor to make it better? I already polished it. It throws the brass in all directions. Pretty strange. Oh, and i had a level 3 ipsc match last weekend. The gun didn´t feed my geco 154gr flathead ammo. Had 6 malfuctions on a 12 sec. stage... made it in 37 sec. Lost 70 Points. The bullets stuck on the loading ramp (polished) or right on the way into the chamber (polished) at 45 degree. Starting to hate this gun. Cost me a good 3rd place.
  2. It was grinding even without the overtravel screw. It´s working now, with the new trigger bar. But the overtravel screw has to just barely touch. Only problem i have, are stovepipes. 1 in about 200 rounds. Extractor is new and polished, spring is the extra power atm. It´s a newer, stroked Largeframe.
  3. Hammer is going back all the way, touching the beavertail. Didn´t do anything to the spring. When i pulled the trigger and hold it back and release the hammer forward with my other hand, the sear was touching the hammer´s hooks. (grinding? dragging?)
  4. I threw the buffer out after i learned that it doesn´t touch anything. (thanks Ted!) Maybe it even leads to to less slide movement. I have the xtreme guide rod installed. I´ll do the extractor test and test the stock interruptor.
  5. New trigger bar is installed. Did help a bit, but not very much. I can use the triggerstop screw now but only a tiny bit before the sear is scratching again. I´d say it´s no more than a few thenth of a milimeter. 3/4 of a turn from not contacting the frame to sear scratching at the hammer´s hooks. Does the interruptor have any influence on the single action. Gun is extracting a bit better, but the brass is flying in all directions. Still had 1 failure to eject the last training (250 rounds). Next problem is, the recoil buffer´s get destroyed within one training session. They break and knot around the recoil spring wich jams the slide. Gun has all xtreme parts inside now. except the sear housing.
  6. Had to shoot a class this weekend and didn´t want to destroy sear and/or hammer. That was the fastest fix.
  7. Yes, trigger spring issn´t the problem. Recoil spring is a 10lb with factory 124gr. Extra power extractor spring is installed, and a new extractor wich i polished. Have to test on thursday.
  8. Hi Guys, i filed a thenth from the back of the trigger. That was enough to make the sear move freely. I will order a new Trigger bar. Pretty sure mine is out of spec. Otherwise it doesn´t make sense. Installed the extended firing pin block. After testing i found out, it didn´t work correctly with the stock block. Gun shoots good, but sometimes it produces strange malfunctions. It pinches brass in the ejection window. Is that due to a weak extractor spring?
  9. I´ll try that. I didn´t touch the lower leg. Do i need to install the extended firing pin safety btw ? I didn´t install it. I think it works.
  10. Thanks ! The gun is 2 weeks old. Sear is new (yesterday). Have to get a new triggerbar i guess...
  11. All Tanfo xtreme parts. Stock 2 optic. An experienced tanfo shooter told me, it should be due to tolerances with the trigger bars. Mine doesn´t engage the sear correctly because it´s to thin at the contact point. I´ll try a shorter hammer spring first.
  12. Hi guys! I just installed the some xtreme parts. Sear Titan Hammer Interruptor Trigger DA and SA are working. Safety is working after fitting the sear, but i can´t pull the trigger far enough back (it´s touching the frame) to lift the sear enough to completly clear the hammer´s hooks. Triggerstop issn´t touching. It´s the Trigger itself touching the frame. Do i have to fit something to do not round the hooks of the hammer over time or make the trigger engage earlier (more forward) ? Regards Jan
  13. That´s the deal. If you are not target focus you see black and a dot, but no target.
  14. My striker reset spring is broken all the time. (the tiny small one in the striker) I´m pretty sure that happens to all p320´s pretty often. Mine doesn´t fire by itself.
  15. I´d go with the Greyguns competition sear springs and the "snappy trigger return spring". You can get snappy trigger return springs from Armory Craft and i think Greyguns do put them in some kits meanwhile.
  16. you can buy snappy reset trigger springs. pretty nice with the greyguns kit. I like the adjustable gg trigger better over the non adjustable.

    Perfect, thanks a lot !
  18. To me, my P320 xfive handles easier with the light grip than with the heavy txg grip. Draws, manipulations, transitions etc. just need less muscle. I also can´t find a huge difference in recoil or let´s say muzzle climb or softness when shooting stiff loaded factory ammo. When i´m shooting soft ammo, that´s when the heavy grip starts to show an advantage in my eyes. I don´t know why.

    How did you clamp the rear rails? Somehow i find that the nose getting into the grip on the rear makes it hard to press the rear rails down correctly.
  20. It should be a normal sig txg grip, just laser sculpted.. You can push&pull it out.
  21. Hey Guys! The TXG Grip in large is now available ! They already shipped some to Germany, so i ordered one. Pretty sure the small one will follow soon.
  22. Grauffel´s finger doesn´t do anything. He uses a push & pull grip, wich comes from the shoulders. One´s pushing one´s pulling, just a little bit. Or one is holding, one is pushing or pulling. If you use a "normal" clamping grip with your support hand, you loose one finger and with that a lot of clamping force if you doesn´t use the finger to create leverage somehow. After all i think, there is just one important "thing" that has to be achieved. None of your hands should slip, so they can work as a unit. To make your supporthand not slip, when gripping your gun from the side, while it´s recoiling violently up&down and back, you need a lot of force and/or a lot of stickieness. Meanwhile your shooting hand doesn´t need much force, because it´s on the regular grip, gripping front to back. You can hold the gun super soft, without coming of the grip. That´s where the wrist´s come into play, but thats a different story.

    X5 Legion accuracy

    Shot from a sandbag, so not my achievement It shows that the gun itself is pretty accurate, or at least more accurate than i thought.

    I tried 5 Shots at 50 Meters from a sandbag with the old xfive with factory ammo at a ipsc mini target. https://www.instagram.com/p/CSOhuIdMnGu/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet
