PatriotDefense Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Is it just us or do Lim Pro's have terrible Machining?.?.?.... like to the point it looks like someone with a hand drill and an end mill cut the fire control pocket in the receiver. I've seen some of the highest factory DA and SA numbers with these guns and they require quite a bit more polishing/tuning just to see decent numbers. The older "marking" guns aren't as bad as the newer "marking" guns, but dang....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElMateo487 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Yup. 12# DA on my new style Lim Pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_RAD Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Mine is over 12# too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryridesmotox Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) The last stock2 I took down to polish looks like my toddler milled out the slide with a hole saw and a dremel.. That particular gun pulled at 12# also.. But my Lyman cuts off at 12# as well... you be the judge Edited December 27, 2016 by ryridesmotox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, it's over 12# but that's due to the last 1/8" of pull where it stacks up bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatriotDefense Posted December 27, 2016 Author Share Posted December 27, 2016 The last 6 we've done have been just shy of 14lbs on the DA. Had to pull out the old school analog gauge in order to get those numbers.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryridesmotox Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Analog gauge... I had to use a 45lbs plate and a chain to drop the hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbu Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) A kid on the pistol team I coach is getting a new lim pro. I "get to" work it over for him while showing him the ins and outs of tanfo guts. . I hope it's not that horrid. but, my son's LP was machined by a marauding band of drunk monkeys and it's got the highest trigger pull of all mine. Oh, I would sanitize that wrecking ball in a flaming vat of bleach before using it to knock down sn outhouse.

hav3n Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Got some grips for Christmas for my Witness Match Elite that I bought about 4 years ago, thought I'd do a polishing pass on it since I never did when I was shooting it. Wow. All the parts were so much cleaner than my 2015 Lim Pro. The plunger didn't have steps on it, the trigger bar was actually smooth with no chatter marks. Really put to shame the new Lim Pro. Thinking about swapping the older parts into my new Lim Pro.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddjob Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 A friend and I tried the trigger on my last Stock 2 and it was awful. We measured it using the Lyman trigger gauge and the first reading was 11lb 13oz. Then it maxed out at 12lbs after that. Don't remember the single action poundage.

ryridesmotox Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Wouldn't surprise me... These guns as a whole are machined poorly. They shoot well, which is amazing. But seriously, the powers that be at Tanfo need to step it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aandabooks Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 The Lim Pro I got a couple months ago wasn't horrible in the machining dept. It could have been better but not horrible. I've been a machinist for 25 years so I know what good machining looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn't for the BOLO and the other PD Optimized parts, I wouldn't even think about the move to Tanfo. It's just too messy for me. I mean, I wouldn't transition to a Glock or anything, but I'd be happy w/ my CZs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
