Yup and considering most of the time we start with our bodies canted and leaning and hands sometimes are in weird positions, you can almost never get that perfect straight up and down draw. I wanted to break my s#!t on the last retreat stage where hands started on the wall lol

This. All i did was loosen all of them a little, grab the pistol and position it where i need and tightened 2 or 3 screws with the other hand so it didnt move. Then i took the belt off and tightened the rest. Actually very easy

I just switched to the EG after using the Alpha-X for years. I was absolutely frustrated with the DAA. For a while i was forced to use a muzzle support bc if the gun doesnt sit perfect or come out perfectly straight, it catches and hangs up so you are trying to fight to get it out. I though maybe it was the balance of the gun but i recently got a different Open gun that was completely different and it was doing the same thing. Not so much during dry fire or practice bc for the most part i was standing straight and erect but during matches where you are in different start positions, it was an issue. Nothing like fighting your gun when the start position is hands on walls and its a retreat off the rip.

Been shooting PD bullets for some time and they always have s#!t shoved inside the HP every so often. Never had it affect accuracy or get stuck inside anything.

Mods lock this thread please

Im the opposite. Its usually against my religion to like a plastic striker gun over a metal DA/SA but after the Apex upgrades, added brass backstrap and steel guide rod, i actually like it better. Idk why, i just do. Thing is so smooth

Henning basepads with MBX guts. 24+1 i also have the apex disco and trigger in mine. I did have lighter firing pin springs in but i was getting dead trigger/no reset issues so i went back to stock spring. Also solid brass backstrap and steel guide rod with a lighter recoil spring

What makes it look like a Gans gun? I havnt found and examples that look remotely close

Owner was an older gentleman who is now deceased. Also owned a few old caspian open guns in 38 super so the mount makes total sense in that regard lol

So far the closest ive gotten was an older Akai. I get panel cuts are common but his are the closest. Even Shay said it COULD be one of his but wasnt sure bc the comp throws it off. I dont have the gun in hand, bc it was a deceased persons pistol that i got pictures of.

Need help IDing this pistol. Maybe someone can recognize the slide design. Idk much about it other than being older (owner was also older and owned some OG Caspians in 38 super) and that it has an STI SAS frame. Completely disregard the optic mount and optic lol

I also use green now for my comps. Seems to hold alot better. So far out of both my guns, i only had to remove one of them and yeah, that was a Mfer and a half lol

A one piece definitely would be ideal, just not a lot of options out there. My biggest grip with 2 piece comp/barrel is the comp eventually working loose, especially titanium comps

So a buddy of mine had a local builder we shoot with build an Open gun for him, somewhat of an outlier. The comp is actually built into the barrel itself with popple holes behind it. The thing tracks incredible and is super flat. Same PF and loads as the rest of his Open guns with threaded comps. I almost enjoy shooting it more than my own Open guns lol my question is, why dont we see this more often? Aside from performance, whats the difference from all perspectives? Longevity? Build difficulty? Build cost? Pros and Cons? Heres some pictures. Gun now has a steel grip and less Yellow but same gun otherwise

I strictly use .356. Considering this doesnt seem to be a common issue, it doesn’t make sense to buy a completely different diameter bullet just for this gun.
