Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk The Xtreme front sight on mine is 3mm wide but I can't really measure the height with it on the gun since I think you're supposed to measure the full height of the site including the base. From the top of the base to the top of the sight post, it's 3.60mm at the front and 3.45 at the muzzle, but that would be irrelevant in comparing to another brand of site since the base would likely be different.

I've always ran the slim Dawson's on my other pistols and like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you like it that thin with the width of the rear super sight? I was a little worried that would be too thin so I went with .100. I wish Dawson made the fixed competition rear for our guns.

emjei Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I like the .090Wide wayyyyy better that .100I tested an 2.5W Xtreme and it gave the perception of being thinner (Although I think is because of how short it is compared to Dawson) .....but I want to try one Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHAVEGAS Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Still tinkering with a fairly new gun. Anybody get primer strikes that look like this or know what causes this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkadi Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Similar, even more pronounced strikes like that on a new Stock II 10mm. I would say the firing pin is not retracting back on a timely manner, but it appears to work just fine on table. Puzzling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombywoof Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Yes, my Stock II does the same thing. No combination seemed to fix it. I just don't look anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHAVEGAS Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Stock pin, PD optimized spring, PD safety block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikieM Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Looks like the nose of the firing pin is not getting out of the way as the barrel begins to unlock. Try a stronger FP spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHAVEGAS Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Wondering about alignment - fp hole - fp channel - fp dimensional tolerances. More spring might stop the marking on the primers but it would be good to understand a little more. Other thing, hate to make changes in the direction of making ignition less reliable/requiring a stiffer hammer spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My suspicion is I am wondering about something that does not really matter. Safe to assume that you have many rounds through your gun & good trigger/ignition characteristics?

Avenida Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 going to revive this thread as I already hijacked the other one a bit older I am new to Tanfoglios so I have a lot of questions. to revise the list of mandatory upgrades for a stock II (please note I need to use all OEM parts as this gun will be used in major IPSC matches and in Production where nothing other than OEM is allowed). Sear and hammer related questions: I am planning on installing a TITAN EXTREME hammer, do I need to upgrade the sear to an extreme sear? or Should I keep the sear that comes with the regular stock II instead of upgrading to a extreme sear? ( I have read here that the extreme has machining flaws?) and, Do I need a new extreme sear cage? why? what is the difference with the sear cage in the regular Stock II Trigger continued: I am planning on getting the extreme trigger bar, that looks chromed and perhaps easier to polish. Is this worth it or just polish the bar that comes with the gun? Do I need an Extreme Trigger instead of factory Stock II trigger shoe? Fitting: I have read the thread about sear fitting (thank you very much Memphis for putting that together). What other fitting would the hammer group require? Do I need to fit the interruptor / hammer? Sorry for all the questions, I am trying to be prepared for the task as I am feeling a little bit overwhelmed by the amount of work it will require. However, I very much prefer working on the trigger myself to understand the firearm fully and get comfortable and for the pride of working on it and making it to my liking. Let me know if I should perhaps put all the questions on a new thread and I will do that. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Faced with the same level of ignorance, I just called patriot defense and asked them to put together a parts list of what they would install. Worked out well.
