Thinking about getting the springer adapter plate vs buying a Romeo. Thoughts?? Obviously cheaper?? Wait on the “beefed up” Romeo? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This is my next path. The 32 MOA circle should help a lot in acquisition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Hello: I have the Holosun 507C on a Springer mount on my 320X5. I just use the dot not the circle or circle/dot. I find that the circle does not work that well for me on paper targets. I know guys who use the circle when they are shooting steel. The 3 MOA dot works very well for me and prefer it over the Romeo 1 6MOA dot. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakeB Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Picked up a X5 and a Romeo 1 to compete in IPSC Production Optics a little over a month ago loving the gun so far only issue I am having is with the ejection pattern brass is ejecting almost straight back and beating up the top right corner of the optic. I am just under 3000 rounds in and the top right corner of the optic is almost bare metal. I shoot a 147gr load thats fairly stout makes just shy of 140pf. Anyone else have this issue any tips bought some 124gr and 160gr bullets to try would really like to go to a softer shooting load in the 130pf range. Unfortunately in IPSC I cant change the stock recoil spring and rod until the legion comes out and gets approved then I can put those parts in.

dansedgli Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 It wont help mate. I run an 11lb spring and it still hits the optic occasionally. Best thing to do is make sure everything is smooth in the extractor channel then try to ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithcity Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Cant you fix this by reshaping the ejector? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dansedgli Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Maybe but it is permanent part of the FCU. Seems like a risky endeavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithcity Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I would rather have a gunsmith that knows what he is doing fix my ejection pattern problem than eject thousands of cases into my optic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIG wanted to knock out 2k right up front, so we should start to see more out there. Perhaps for Production, but for CO, is 2,000 necessary, if you use the FCU from another legal 320? Seems if you meet the weight limit of 45, you could do what you want — whether that be a Legion grip module or a modified current X5 one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakazulu12 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I may have missed the boat, but are their any of the current X5's still floating around out there at a big discount with the new Legion version coming? Some quick searching online didn't really return much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

be032 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) It's unlikely they'll put a sub-3lb trigger in any striker-fired production gun, but I could be wrong. Edited July 8, 2019 by be032 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my new X-Compact, the trigger is noticeably shorter then the one of my X-Carry. I was hopping they would carry that shorter reset over to the Legion.

cdholmes Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I've been practicing with my X5 after putting a Springer Precision stainless steel guide rod in. With the 15 lb. spring, after my first shot, the gun doesn't even dip back down low enough to be on target, and I have to push the gun back down. Should I install the stock guide rod assembly, or invest in one of the tungsten guide rods? I've been shooting Speer Lawman 124 gr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
