audani77 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 For those of us that ordered the new DVC limited gun, besides getting it and shooting it what modifications will you be making? I will be adding an agressive textured PT grip that I ordered for my Edge and adding an SVI medium flat trigger. Probably new recoil spring as well. Anyone else planning anything? I'll be putting in a short trigger (probably STI - though I may look at an SVI trigger system). I'll also be putting on an extended mag release - probably the CR Speed one here if its in stock by then: http://www.shootersconnectionstore.com/CR-Speed-RHT-Snake-Skin-Mag-Release-Button-P1666.aspx (If you can't tell by those mods I have small hands). Other than that I don't think I'll be making any other immediate changes. Nice, there's not many changes that need to be made from the looks of it but that PT grip is already ordered and the SVI trigger will drop right in. Only thing I have to to now is sell my Edge. how much are you selling your edge for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I have to to now is sell my Edge. how much are you selling your edge for?$1,800 with one mag. It's a Dawson CRP and it's been tuned by Dan Bedell. 2 lb trigger, Dawson tool less guide rod, Koenig hammer, all new EGW ignition system, STI medium flat trigger, stippled grip, undercut trigger guard, Wilson ambi safeties and less than 3000 rounds.

audani77 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I sent you a PM, I will ask my buddy since he was looking for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WYgunner Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 After reading this thread, I am considering buying one in limited. Looking forward to feedback about the weight/recoil/cycle speed as it appears that STI has gone "all out." As we know, you can always take more off, but you can't put it back on.

BroncoShooter Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I supposedly have Dawson's first .40 Limited reserved (ordered from Dawson on the 21st or 22nd I think), but all I have been told is that they ordered their first few from STI on the 14th of January and were told that they should expect around an 8 week delivery wait. I was also told that they do rolling reorders, so as soon as their "in-stock" order of 2 guns for a particular SKU are sold, they auto-order 2 more. I am not sure if this was different given the high interest in the DVC, but maybe. I would be happy to post when I hear anything about mine being received by Dawson or shipped to my FFL, hell I would be happy to hear anything, I am a bit too excited I think.

BroncoShooter Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Looks like STI posted a few new pics to their Facebook page, one from 2/26 shows a batch of STI slides coming off the production line. Good omen! https://www.facebook.com/STIfirearms/photos/a.351072181571432.91547.205151159496869/962779097067401/?type=1&theater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same thing and reserved a Limited in 9mm. I heard the same thing so hopefully I am in the top 45. I sold a couple of my Glocks and some other gear to purchase one. On another note, I wonder if the factory mags that ship with the DVC are factory tuned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGMorden Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 On another note, I wonder if the factory mags that ship with the DVC are factory tuned? I've never heard of STI doing any tuning from the factory. My guess is if they had did this they'd be advertising it as it would be a major sales booster. Probably just standard 140mm mags (though that's a boon just unto itself - the Edge's all just came with 1 semi-useless 126mm mag). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just standard 140mm mags (though that's a boon just unto itself - the Edge's all just came with 1 semi-useless 126mm mag). The 126 mags are not useless. Some shooters need them for different shooting sports. If your STI mags do not work they should be sent back. There should be no need to "tune" factory mags. Now if you are changing base pads, springs, and followers tuning may be needed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audani77 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Ok, that makes me feel better, I plan on buying one more factory mag to complete my mag set up of 3 mags for 3 gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam B Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 the only time I ever had to tune a mag was when I ran 9mm open, STI 40 mags run great out of the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
