Agent #1911 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Yeah, mine came with 140's. I would definitely be checking with whoever you got it from and if no luck there, I would call STI and check with them. Hopefully an honest mistake & no one "switched" them out. The pistol came in a sealed bag with a 120mm mag in the well. Did yours came sealed? Hard to tamper and switch out mag right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would call STI and talk to them about it. Hopefully they will trade out the mags for 140's for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dink Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Got my limited 40 today at my local range/gun store. They have a 40 and a 9 in stock. STI must have cranked up the assembly lines. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerBaron Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Wkgsljv lkhbu jkhkjhfd are the damn Open guns! I am first on the list with Brazos for a 9mm Open, come on STI! I've been wondering the same. Quite a few limiteds around but I've not heard of any opens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hello: I saw one of the open guns yesterday at our local match. It looked pretty nice. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93notch Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) so i found a couple from a dealer so i have both a 9mm and the 40.. I should receive them tomorrow. I am a little worried about the mags though. The 40 does appear to have the 140 but the 9mm looks like is has the 126's which will be a disappointment for sure. They were advertised as having 140's on both guns. I guess we will see tomorrow. Edited June 15, 2015 by 93notch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dink Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Got my ltd 40 on saturday, ran 50 factory loads, 50 major power factor reloads and 50 minor power factor reloads. All ran flawlessly. Im very impressed with it. I do need an extended mag release tho and the trigger is heavier than advertised (3.2 lbs). Still happy.

DRed Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 40 DVC I got from KAP arrived sealed in bag. 2 140 mm clips. Trigger was 3lbs 5-7 ozs basic 3 1/2 lb trigger Feeding problems with factory ammo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernelofwisdom Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Saw a 40 limited at local shop PDHSC just sitting on the shelf. Streets are littered with limited DVC's. Waiting for the unicorn Open. I blame the STI late delivery for keeping me from the focus I need to make GM. I'm figuring they decided to do a good run of limiteds before doing the opens so the opens will come soon. Still looking forward to it - not even thinking about canceling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericridebike Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 40 DVC I got from KAP arrived sealed in bag. 2 140 mm clips. Trigger was 3lbs 5-7 ozs basic 3 1/2 lb trigger Feeding problems with factory ammo My .40 DVC didn't like factory stuff either. I ran some Blaser Brass and Perfecta stuff through mine initially. It fired and functioned well except for an occasional FTF. Mine seemed to occur when I would insert a fresh mag and rack the slide to load the chamber. The round wouldn't always feed into the chamber without getting hung up. I'm pretty sure it is due to the short OAL of the factory stuff(~1.12). I found if I slid the top round in the mag a little further forward towards the front of the mag it would feed into the chamber with no issues. For some reason it never seemed to happen after the first round, the rest of the mag would feed and fire without issue. I got some of my own ammo loaded up with an OAL of 1.18 as recommended by David Cupp at STI, so hopefully it will cure the FTF issues. Otherwise, the gun is awesome and everything I hoped it would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awfaxis Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I picked up my DVC Ltd 40 2 weeks ago. Also had some FTF's. With light loads, some stovepipes. Got an 11 lb progressive spring now, no more ejection issues. Shoots a lot flatter with the lighter spring. 180 gr Xtremes at 940fps. FTF was a combo of 2 things. There was a small dimple in the ramp, and with very slow cycling, it would stop cold. Polished this out, and no more hangs. 2nd issue was seen with it being 1/4" short of battery. Brass was hanging up on the firing pin hole. Did a quick chamfer and polish, and now this is flawless. Both 1.135 OAL and my new setting at 1.175 OAL. Newest thing I have is a little ledge on the breach, which is marking my brass. Doesn't affect function though, just looks odd on my reloads.

awfaxis Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 This is my first 2011. Been shooting M&P's for the last 2 years. Had to play with them a lot more to get them where they needed to be. This is just "tuning" to me, but the ledge is a bit disappointing. Can't do anything about that. Have not been able to reach STI yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
