Rudukai13 Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 It was getting to be about time to replace the recoil spring on the RS320A, and while I was replacing parts I decided to opt for an upgrade. I liked the feeling and function of the DPM spring system in the EVO320 so much I bought one for each of the RS320s. Optics Planet shipped the one they had in stock, the second one for RS320B should be here in about a week. A build is never truly finished...

Rudukai13 Posted October 22, 2020 Author Share Posted October 22, 2020 Cross-platform consistency achieved. All three builds are now equipped with the DPM recoil spring assemblies, and boy do they feel nice and smooth. Just been sitting here racking the slides on them for a while.

WhiteDingo Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 What's the bottom of the comp rubbing on, on the side there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted October 24, 2020 Author Share Posted October 24, 2020 3 hours ago, WhiteDingo said: What's the bottom of the comp rubbing on, on the side there? I’m honestly not sure actually. When I cycle the slide by hand I don’t see any point where the comp scrapes against the frame in that area, nor can I cause it to rub by manipulating the barrel with the slide locked open. I suppose it’s possible that it’s contacting the frame at some point during cycling with live fire, but if it is it hasn’t negatively affected reliability of the pistol. I’ll keep an eye on it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 With my grip modules (hopefully) soon being finished up at Springer, I took a little time tonight to tear down my “flush-fit” magazines that were based on Compact 15-round mag tubes. Since all three of my P320s will now have Carry module dimensions, I no longer had use for the 15+2 configurations. Those 17-round mag tubes now have the TTI +2 base pads and Grams Engineering 11-coil spring and follower kits, for a total capacity of 19 rounds. These will be the new “flush-fit” mag option when paired with the Springer ESP magwell grip modules. That leaves my current magazine count at four 19-rounders, four 23-rounders, and three 27-round happy sticks with another four 23-rounders on deck once I get the tubes and internals to make them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted November 2, 2020 Author Share Posted November 2, 2020 My brother picked up a brand new bouncing baby blaster today, and brought it over for me to fondle. The P365 seems like a very nice little pistol on initial inspection and I’ll be excited to try shooting it at our next range day. That said, handling and manipulating it has more solidified my intent to not purchase one for myself - It’s a bit too small for my preferences, and the stiff single-sided slide release is difficult to manipulate as a southpaw. Still a nice gun though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Sounds like Springer’s gunsmith ran into a couple speed bumps with the magwell fitting but he’s got it figured out now and should have them in the mail back to me in the next week!

Rudukai13 Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 It’s been not much more than ceiling dryfire for the last couple weeks as I’m currently in the lull between two different procedures, the second of which will hopefully permanently make my back a little less FUBAR. Awaiting a shipping notification from Springer on the grip modules which should be any day now. More updates as I get them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Stock doesn’t last long in my family. Brother got his P365 slide back from Jagerwerks with the Holosun 507K installed. Very nicely done work and rounds out his mini EDC package nicely with the TLR6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudukai13 Posted December 22, 2020 Author Share Posted December 22, 2020 Precision Squared has arrived! It took a little longer than expected but absolutely worth the wait. Fit and finish of the magwell installations are absolutely top notch, the balance and fit in hand is downright perfect, and the weight is in all the right places. I can’t wait to get these to the range, I imagine these will barely budge in recoil with their 124gr NATO/+P standard diet. With these finished grip modules both RS320s are back in completed functional form. The EVO320 will be going to my gunsmith soon to get the new grip module drilled and tapped, the trigger kit installed, and reassembled. Shooting report on the new and improved RS320s as soon as I’m able to get to the range! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 Doing some dryfire/mag change practice tonight and figured I’d take a detail pic of the magwell fit. Perfectly blended with a bit of epoxy for a smooth transition from magwell to internal grip funnel, with zero hitches or stuck mags so far. It supports my pinky finger and the space between the magwell flare and the trigger guard fits my hand like a glove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudukai13 Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 This monster will be going to see the gunsmithing wizard tomorrow or Thursday to get the new grip module drilled and tapped, Apex trigger installed, final reassembly and re-zeroing. Wait time will likely be a few weeks and I’m scheduled for surgery on the 6th, so it might as well be with the ‘smith while I’m off my feet and recovering anyway. Almost finished!
