IHAVEGAS Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Just wondering if that gun has any fans or particular high water marks to speak of. If I was looking for an IDPA legal gun I think I could make a good case for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V2plus25 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I held one last week in 9mm. At first I thought the finger grooves on the front strap would bother me, but I ended up not even noticing them when I gripped the gun firmly. Seems like a viable option for IDPA. With the full size dust cover adding extra weight the only problem I see with it in IDPA is having to be extra conscious on all the other parts in order to come in at or under 43oz. I like Henning grips and mag basepads on my Lim Pro, and I'm sure that combination would make the new Stock I go over the weight limit. Of course a PD light weight guide rod would counteract some of the added weight. All in all it felt like any other Tanfo... Tanfastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the moment, given that it has a fixed rear sight it seems like an $800.00 delivered gun masquerading as a $1000.00 delivered gun due to lack of supply. Fun to have something to keep an eye on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they missed the market. And the anticipated new Lim Pro is a small frame, no chrome. Might as well get a CZ. Another miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCTaylor Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) Agreed with OpenB the only draw the new Lim Pro has is balance. I have/had (selling) a Shadow 2, with the standard barrel, heavier slide, and rail up front, the balance is too much on the nose. Hopefully the price point will be ~$100 cheaper than the Stock 2's but I doubt it. @IHAVEGAS I think the Stock 1 would be a great IDPA gun but as mentioned, it's on the high end of price for the end product.

One less thing to worry about as they arw are more robust. and after initial zero, I've never had to re-zero. Plus, i would buy a different front fiber anyway. Just one opinion Edited July 25, 2018 by johnbu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I’m with you @johnbu. A fixed rear sight a feature, not a bug. Adjustable rears are a failure point I don’t desire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHAVEGAS Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 To each their own, I think I have seen more front sight failures than rear (i.e. do you see anything on the ground? , who would have thought that thin front would break from just a bump on that port?) but I can't argue with trying to maximize reliability. What makes me crazy though is having $'s invested in a very accurate gun and not being able to get it zeroed in as well as possible or tweak it easily if I decide I like a different load recipe. All that stuff aside, fixed should be cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one to worry about rear sights but I got over that pretty quickly, they last a long time. for me having the practically to dial a load is a plus, although I do not do it very often, I like that it is there. If it was a carry pistol, I would certainly look for a fixed set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenverDave Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) Love mine. But even though the rear sights look sexy....had problem with getting consistent groups. Loved it more after I changed out the rear sight to the standard LPA Tanfo adjustable and a fiber front sight.

OPENB Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Is the slide cut for it, or did you have to cut it to fit the LPA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenverDave Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 LPA dropped right in. Nice Fit. No big deal. Love the gun now that I can sight it correctly. BTW: Originally when I found the factory sights did now work for me, I decided to make it a carry optic. Bought the mount from EGW, but when I tried to install it, if found the radius on the top of the slide made it impossible. That is when I decided to install the LPA.

IHAVEGAS Posted August 2, 2018 Author Share Posted August 2, 2018 Pictures, or it is not happening (internet rule) . HC should open up the market to a whole lot of people who just like slick looking guns. Wonder if it will be hard chrome only or if there will still be some blue guns?

srrch Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I thought they were large frames. The IFG imported Lim Pros are small frames. I still don't get that though. I want the large frame platform.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
