Quadrant Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hey Quadrant, I replaced my front sight with a Lightning Rod from Brazos, 0.330x65x0.075, this may be the part number, 40-067-75. The attached pics are for RIA front and rear sight dove tails, at least for the Pro Match 40. My 40 already has an adjustable rear sight, so I stuck with it. Thanks...

Quadrant Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Back again Quadrant, this is my Pro Match 40, the new addition is the Taylor Freelance magwell, have shot it, and like it, but tomorrow will be the true test, have the first competition. It's still cold and wet in Montana. Looks Sweet... Let us know how it runs at the match... Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomjerry1 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 As usual, the gun screwed that match, no matter how hard I aimed it, it would only shot C's and D's. I wish I could blame it on the gun! Ran great, only had one FTF? The new front sight helped, and wish I could say the new mag well helped as much, didn't notice any difference. The trigger work got me a couple of times, it breaks right at 3 lbs and is crisp. The results haven't been released yet, but for the first day out, I didn't feel to bad. Of course the only stage that counts, classiffier, I blew it. The only one that did it well was the new Production shooter? go figure. What's the old saying, next time.

tomjerry1 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Superslowmo, I did no modifications to the magwell for the Dawson basepads, or to fit the gun. TF does say that fitting may be required, depends on the gun I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrant Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) Superslowmo, I did no modifications to the magwell for the Dawson basepads, or to fit the gun. TF does say that fitting may be required, depends on the gun I guess? My mags (the dawson basepad, Mec-Gar P18 mags) won't work with the TF magwell. I running the 9mm HC 56179 and you are running the .40 Promatch 51738 correct? The 140mm MBX fit perfect. Which magazine are you using with the Dawson basepads out of your Promatch .40 Edited March 27, 2016 by Quadrant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomjerry1 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 I do have the Pro Match 40, using a Taylor Freelance magwell. I'm running STI 140 mags w/Dawson SNL basepads and Grams internals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomjerry1 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 I didn't do anything to the magazines, but worked a little on the mag release. I am using the Dawson release for Para HiCap by Gun Craft, I believe this is the part # 511-1044. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
