aggunner Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 And my STI after having it for 8 months. Just replaced a broken ejector lastnight and I'm going to probably swap out the rear sight with a yobo rear and have the whole thing ion bonded. I bought it back in late November for a Thunder Ranch class in Jan of this year. The gun got shot quite a bit before leaving for the class and at the class it ran like a champ until i broke the ejector. Even with a non existant ejector, the gun still managed to kick out 98% of the brass and keep going. It wasn't until the end of the first day that I noticed that the ejector was gone. The gun has sat in my safe since then and I just got around to replacing the ejector with one from EGW. Took the gun out today and ran it a bit and let all the guys at work shoot it.

KGentry Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Nice setup - good balance between fast cycle rate and muzzle flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Religious Shooter Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 What's a "yobo rear" look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggunner Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 I need to spring it a bit more, I can feel myself "waiting" for the gun to back into battery. and as far as the yobo, here is a sight pictureish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark cumberland Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Very nice. Is it a .45? I have the same pistol in .40 and mine runs great also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On mine the unusual part is the factory adjustable tritium sights and it's marked " Tactical US ". Only made 175 of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried the magwell and using the 126mm mags, you can't get your fingers in there to pull out a stuck mag in case of a double feed, which I had a couple of before I realized that my 1/2 of my ejector was missing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooterbenedetto Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 MAKE SURE THAT YOUR MAG IS NOT HITTING THE EJECTOR!! otherwise it will break again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry cazes Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 MAKE SURE THAT YOUR MAG IS NOT HITTING THE EJECTOR!!otherwise it will break again!! Best reason there is for never doing a reload at slidelock if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggunner Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 MAKE SURE THAT YOUR MAG IS NOT HITTING THE EJECTOR!!otherwise it will break again!! All of the base plates on my mags hit the frame before the mag contacts the ejector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
