Novagunner Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Red Hill is also a good choice. I've never had him make one for a pistol with comp though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not 100% on a comp and honestly may forgo it for the time being. We'll see. I just wish that the holster makers would put pics of all their attachment devices in one spot on their site. Or pics in any form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novagunner Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 so much really depends on what division you want to run. With a 19 (doable although not ideal), I would run production and just do sights, grip tape or stipple, minus connector and a red hill holster or even just a basic blade tech and have fun. Or put a red dot on it and shoot Carry Optics. Doing more than that and you are at a serious disadvantage in the other divisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm building a "run what ya brung" local club match gun that doesn't have many divisions. It's a casual night of shooting guns at speed. Safely, of course. Hence my getting a little silly with it.

I spoke to Lindsay at RHT this morning. I've decided to run a comp and they don't make a holster for the 19 that will accomodate a comp without taking a dremel or heat gun to it. Honestly, I'm kind of bummed. I guess I'll have to look around to see what I can find. I ordered a Carver 2 port for the pistol. I figured that I have the threaded barrel, I may as well put it to use. We'll see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RHT refused to make me a holster for my gun, so I went to lytton custom holsters. Justin built me exactly what I wanted and its fantastic. Check him out.

Tophernj Posted May 18, 2019 Author Share Posted May 18, 2019 My external parts are all in and on the gun. Just waiting on a metal guide rod and springs for the pistol. After that she should be done other than milling for a MRDS. I'm hoping to do that in the next few weeks. I shot it the other day without the comp. It shoots really well. My handgun technique really sucks right now. Hoping to improve on it over the summer. Matches start in the fall. Thanks to all that helped. I really appreciate the advice and such.

Tophernj Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 Other than a dot, she's pretty complete. Internally the trigger is all Apex. NDZ ss guide rod and spring. Zev striker spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tophernj Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 While I wait for the mount for my MRDS, I figured I'd make her all mine... I had the time to try my hand at stippling. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. I'm sure there are some tips and tricks that I could have employed, but for the money and time spent, it works for me.

TeamCarverCustom Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Looking good. If you need any suggestions for loads for your setup m, feel free to ask. I have loaded and tested many different loads from 135pf to 176pf. Are you shooting 9 major? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a serious competitor and don’t care about the higher points awarded to Major shooters. Thank you for the offer to help with loadings . I appreciate it.
