bayougump Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Ladies and gentlemen, I recently purchased a Stock II and I wanted to know what spare parts you keep on hand? I shoot Production in USPSA and with my G34 I have a small tacklebox full of spare parts just in case. I want to do the same for my Stock II so what would you suggest would be the most important spares to have on hand. Thanks in advance.

Kahai808 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 i carry a couple of springs but to tell you the truth i just got a back up gun. the stock 2 is not a gun i would like to take apart at the range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetorian97 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 My backup gun gives me a warm and fuzzy. Some things you cant really fix at the range or on the road in a decent time frame. Sights can be difficult in a time pinch. Things crack and break. I've had issues with recoil springs, magwell, etc that I have been able to deal with at the safety table in between matches. At a larger match Id probably just rather grab my backup gun and deal with the failure at the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mlussoro Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 well arent you the rich guys with whole complete other guns as back ups! LOL to us less fortunate, i carry extra sear, spring and cage, extra hammer springs in different weights, pins, guide rod, recoil springs, firing pins, extractor and spring, some screw drivers, allens, and its worked so far havent had to fix much of anything it just runs and runs and runs..( and i have the cheapo version witness ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nealio Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I don't think I even want to know....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBaron Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 my kit for a match would be: spare slide stop. (though you can sometimes carry on with a broken one, it's a good thing to have). spare fibre rod for the front sight squib rod hammer cleaning kit (brushes, jags, oil, rod, patches etc) couple of punches and screw drivers and torx driver for my grip screws couple of spare recoil springs and hammer springs extractor and extractor spring and pin is not a bad idea too spare firing pin and spring is a good spare to have too spare recoil spring (can do something like buy an extreme one, or henning cone fit and then keep the stock one as a spare). that should do it.

zsavage81 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Here is the recomended spare parts list from Jim Jones at J&L Gunsmithing: Green Front Sight Fiber1 - Set of Xtreme Grip Screws6 - Wolff 13lb Hammer Springs2 - Hammer Pin Retaining Pin5 - Factory Extractor Springs2 - Extractor2 - Extractor Pin5 - Sear Springs2 - Slide StopFiring Pins (1 - X-long, 2 EG Xtreme)5 - Uncut Factory Firing Pin Springs1 - Firing Pin Retainer/Back Plate3 - Firing Pin Safety Plunger Spring (spring under firing pin block) It's probably a little excessive, but if your spending hundreds of dollars on match fee's, hotel's, ammo, ect it would suck to go all that way and spend all that money to have to sit out because of a $5 spring. The down and dirty bare minium list probably looks like this: 4- Front Sight Fibers2 - Wolff 13lb Hammer Springs1 - Factory Extractor Springs1 - Extractor1- Extractor Pin1- Slide Stop5 - Uncut Factory Firing Pin Springs Jim has all of this in stock, tell him Zach Savage sent you!

Nealio Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I throw a spare blaster in my bag if its a State or big match. Other than that I don't carry anything extra. You guys act like these are custom built STI's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetorian97 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Wait....You actually shoot matches Nealio? I only carry the one blaster at local matches. Im pro parts for a different reason. Even though I have an extra blaster for big matches, I hate to wait on shipping or parts shortage for a replacement part once I got the gun home.

Nealio Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Wait....You actually shoot matches Nealio? Hey I shot a match this month! Maybe I should shoot more, but then I wouldn't have as much time to work on (other people's) guns.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetorian97 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Very VALID point. I will shoosh now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I have an extra blaster for big matches, I hate to wait on shipping or parts shortage for a replacement part once I got the gun home. I like them for that reason too. If your questioning if something is broken or worn it's also nice to have an extra new one laying around to compare the one in the gun to or just throw the new in the gun to verify.

zsavage81 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Also, I carry a back up gun to majors but my back up is a g34. So maybe I finish the day with my back-up, but if I can get my main gun up and running for the second or 3rd day I'm certainly going to try that.

I use to have another Tang in 45 that I considered a backup gun but then that meant additional mags and ammo to drag along. I wanted to make sure my backup used the same just for that reason.

I don't need to carry anything to the range. I can just shoot in the same squad with this guy and bludge what I need off him!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just what was recomended to me to keep on hand. I'll probably end up ordering the short list at some point in the near future, but right now I can barely afford match fee's and ammo!
