thehudge Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I am currently shooting a 320 RX in carry optics division and was wondering; I want to change the frame to an X5 and the curved trigger to a flat one, all would still be OEM. Would these changes be legal to shoot in CO Division? I have read the new rules but am still not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman_usmc Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Yes, that is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc7x7 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Yes. FCU are available with flat triggers and you can change triggers and grips/modules per the current rules. Be aware if you have large hands the x-5 is only available with the med grip. FWIW I actually like the LG 320 grip better than my x-5 grip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehudge Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 You raise a valid point jcc. While I have handled the x5 I have never shot one and currently use the large module on the 320. I fined the 320 grip to be awkward and I have to put more of the meat of my hand on the backstrap so I can get proper finger position on the trigger. Hmmm.

I SilCarb'd my grip and when I did I added some meat to the rear so I got what I wanted for grip placement. Now It's great for me and my hand etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff_Alan Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 The SSI also increases the size of the grip some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
