Brian Enos's Forums... Maku mozo!

6" Top end for my STI Edge

It ran fine. I may need to replace the front sight with a Dawson. The Brazo's Microdot is just too small for me to see indoors.

BTW, Joe brought his trigger scale and my trigger turned out to be just a hair under 3 pounds.

Well it looked like it ran pretty good last night Chris, how did it feel?

Just curious...I know that the slides that you buy from, say STI, come pre-heat-treated. Does drilling holes in them, and cutting on them in general, without re-heat-treating cause issues with the slides cracking? Does it compromise the integrity of the metal?

Thanks.

Cutting, drilling and milling does not effect heat treating because it does not introduce any significant heat into the metal. Heat treating is not a surface treatment that can be removed by milling and drilling.
