STI Sentry

[Rolex]

Just asking- so has any one tried one,

have one in .40S&W? I hear about the

Trojen ect. But how about this one for

$1,500.00.

[Neil E.]

I have one. I bought it from Dave Dawson. Dave went through the gun and fine tuned it. It has had around 6,000 rounds thru it in 7 months(they have been my reloads). The guns has been flawless. Runs 100%. More accurate than I can shoot. Would highley recommend one.

Neil,

what mags are you using,and oal and what ammo?

22,000 rnds. The Sentinel is the "old" Sentry I believe. I freshened it up a hair last year with a new hammer/sear/disconnector and a Briley bushing. Short, long, semi wadcutter lead, jacketed, White Box, major minor,etc, etc. It runs them all at 100%. Never, ever had any sort of problems. I run a ISMI 12.5# recoil and a 17# main spring. Cannot say enough good about it. I think I paid $1,438.

Shot a club match today with guy who has one. He said he had to send it back to get it to work right.. Didn't say what had to be done to it.. Is real happy with it now...

Can you ask him what was wrong?

Thanks

I believe that is right. My Sentinel is flawless, just runs and runs. Mine is a 45 and I also paid around $1450 including trigger work from Thunder Mountain in Benson AZ.

Mine is in .40 and came stock from Shooter's Connection. CMC mags are my preference, but she runs with Wilson, Cobra, Mec-Gar, metalform, etc . Whatever I tried, they worked. I used .45 mags for a few months also. I use the 10mm mags now, but only load out to 1.16. If I were to buy another stock SS, it would be the Sentry. I certainly have been fortunate with mine and because of that would buy another in a heart beat.

I got a 9mm Sentry from Brazos last year, I really like it and would buy another. I tried Wilson and Tripp mags, both are reliable but the Tripp's are lots easier to seat with 10 in the mag.
