tgibson Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I'm guessing this is to speed up reloads? Adios, TG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00bullitt Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Kinda....it speeds them up by not letting your thumb get stuck in the load port. If your thumb gets pierced and stuck....reloads become very slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usp45ss Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Very nice. I've been looking for somebody to send my SLP to. I've caught my thumb way too many times loading my SLP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumtoc Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 (edited) Just got my modified carrier back from Jeff this week. Work is very nice, looks factory made. Much improved loading and no fear of pickle forking my thumb, one less thing to worry about. Thanks Jeff!

Big Bore Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Just take a dremel wheel and cut off the prongs....much easier and cheaper. Does cutting off the prongs cause any problems with reliability? No, It causes no problems,and for the price of a 6pack and a Dremel you can come out much cheaper than welding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjs Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 can you post a picture of the "dremel" version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 can you post a picture of the "dremel" version? Hey guys, would the whole dremeling off the prongs work with Benelli feed gates/shell carriers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Wheaton Jr Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Guys cutting off the prongs does the opposite of what you are thinking. It actually creates a larger space for your thumb to slip into and get stuck. The object is to reduce the space to prevent your thumb from slipping in between the loading gate and getting stuck. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
releo 37 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I just my carrier back today from Jeff. He does outstanding work. If I handed you my SLP and you didn't know about the mod you would think it came from the factory that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helps. Yeah, that was what I was thinking too. With the carrier mod by Jeff I cannot get any part of any finger trapped/pinched, just won't fit.....

EmanP Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Just sent out my carrier today to Jeff. With the first match coming up in 4 weeks, it'll come in reallllll handy. I've gotten two really good thumb traps so far where I thought I was gonna break it. I've been kind scetchy as a result, this will go a long way at easing my reloads.

jc011 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I got my carrier back from Jeff today. It does look awesome, but I can't figure out how to get the carrier back on the right way. I thought I was paying attention when I took it apart, but evidently not good enough. My problem is with the spring and rod that goes on the left rear of the carrier. I've only found one picture of a Browning Gold online, but it's not very detailed. If anyone has (or could take) a detailed picture of the side of the carrier with the spring, that would be a huge help. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
