    Beretta Comp Pro shotgun low mount Holosun 510C

    in Shotgun - Technical

    Posted

    All,

     

    I have a but of a unique problem.

     

    I have a Farrow Tech RMR mount intended for pistol/micro dot mounting to shotguns (Beretta Comp Pro).

     

    I have a Holosun 510C that i’d love to make work with this mounting solution. 
     

    Is there a way to adapt the 510C to the mount? Alternatively, I also have a Trijicon MRO that I could use instead.

     

    trying to avoid going to a Pic rail as it sits taller than the mount and hinders a good cheek weld.

     

     

    Stock 3 Recoil Spring weight with Dot?

    I’m a newbie pistol competitor, but hats besides the point.

     

    I compete with Tanfos...I own stock 1,2,3 and Lim Pros.

     

    heres my advise: keep your gun as stock as possible. Everything you do to your gun (trigger jobs, reduced spring weights, etc) builds unreliability into your platform. From occasional light strikes (trigger job w reduced springs), to failure to go into battery (too light a recoil spring).

     

    i have a stock one set up for CO...it’s completely stock and completely reliable.

    This is not crazy. I continue to have bookoo lite strikes with my 15.5 lb hammer spring and all the patriotdefense goodies.

     

    The only remedy I’ve seen is to go back to the stock hammer spring. The DA pull is comparatively atrocious, but I still have 3lb SA pull.

     

    After a few thousand strikes even the 15.5# spring will have lite strikes on federal primers also.

    Carrying Tanfoglio pistols

    All,

     

    There’s a dearth of IWB holster makers for Tanfos.

     

    I’d like to occasionally carry my Stock 1/2/3 and Limpro, but obviously hobbled by lack of holster choices. Yeah, I could carry a smaller pistol like everyone else, but I prefer to carry what I shoot the most and very familiar with.

     

    Would a CZ SP-01 IWB holster “work”?

     

    If not, any recommendations for where I can get a holster is most welcome.

    Patriot Defense new grips! (exfoliatus maximus)

    Okay, I'm actually really curious about these.  If they are just slightly thicker then the Henning's I'll probably bite.  

    These are metal (aluminium) versions of their excellent CarbonX grips...they should be thicker in all the right places :) 

    Grips ....revisited...WHICH ONE?

    I have to say, I’ve had quite the journey when it comes to grips.

     

    Stock wood grips:

    I have no problem with their diameter...I could stand to use more surface area for support hand, but these grips are serviceable. The issue; too thick at the top, preventing easy access to the mag release.

     

    LOK thin Bogies:

    I bought these based on recommendations here. Texture wise, these can’t be beat! Additionally, they have just the right thickness at the top to enable easy access to the mag release.However, they are too thin for my palms...I ended up accidentally actuating the mag real ease depending on whether I fub my draw causing self induced malfunctions.

     

    LOK palm swell:

    Tried these after the thin bogies. Much better real estate, however, the geometry is just wrong...I can still occasionally bump the mag release accidentally.

     

    Patriotdefense Palm Swell:

    This is the ticket! Every one of my Tanfos wears this. The geometry is perfect. Plenty of real estate for support hand and right form factor to reach mag release without issues. They are also 50% of the price of the LOK grips.

     

    This is all of course very subjective...I mean, Ben Stoeger rocks factory wood grips right? And it hasn’t held him back.

     

    Below are a series of photos comparing the factory wood & LOK Palm swell to the Patriot defense Carbon X palm swells.

    Random mag release

    in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)

    Posted

    Thanks for the replies this far.

     

    More info...

     

    1. It’s a Large frame stock 1.

    2. It uses Mecgar mags.

    3. It doesn’t happen all the time.

     

    its possible I hit the mag release accidentally w my support hand. I’ll go back to the wood grips to fill up my support hands (I have LOK thin grips on it now).

     

     

    Trigger control and trigger pulltechnique

    in Handgun Techniques

    Posted

    I’m really bothered by the fact that I can’t consistently pull the trigger without disturbing the sight picture.

     

    I can do it 90% consistently in dry fire, maybe 80% in live fire and even less in a real match condition.

     

    Yesterday, during a very abbreviated dry fire session, I found I could get to 100% with any grip force only if I sorta angled my trigger finger as I pulled the trigger...like hook the trigger pull to the right (Right handed shooter).

     

    A few comments/questions:

    1. I’m guessing I haven’t actually solved anything.

    2. Is this technique bad for my pistol (Tanfoglio)

    3. What is a sure fire way to pull the trigger without disturbing the sight?

    4. What’s the trick for doing it one-handed whilst shooting at a decent speed?

     

    Thanks again in advance.
