Iron sight plate was tight. Took some convincing with a mallet to get it off.

I want the world to know that I generally have categorical hatred for gunshop parking lot lap photos, but I think this is an exception since I'm proving that receipt of a gun...
Ok. I'll have the gun in hand tomorrow. I ordered it on Feb 21, it was out for delivery Feb 29th... fast forward a BUNCH of silly BS I won't get into.... and it was finally delivered to my FFL...
That looks amazing. Wonder what that finish is.
Yep.
Most cops hardly train, if at all outside of agency mandated training. That said, it's rare that true speed is pushed in training or practiced at all. Then we see tons of OIS videos where...
Edit to add:
Everyone thinks they are smart enough to control the pace until they slip.
This right here is the reason why this isn't optimal. I love the idea of working a little bit, giving back to the community, scratching an itch, making a little bit of extra money. It's all upside...
You nailed it. Why jump back in when I made it out free and clear? The smart version of me should just get over it and move on with my life. This is basically scratching an itch.
Hey all,
I have a decade of experience in police work. I left the job two years ago due to my spouse's ultra demanding and lucrative career situation. I was lucky enough to leave from a special...
I reckon it would make the plate more secure, if anything it would lessen the impact of a screw coming loose. I suspect that this problem is caused by Cerakote on the threads, and the use of an...
I'm taking another swing at making sure my optics plate screws don't back out.
It should be noted that the optics plate itself hasn't come loose, but one or both of the screws. I bed the optics...
Also... Looks like he took the RIA gunsmith services down from his site, and the video I referenced above is now gone.

I submit to you: The budget wide body that's been around this entire time. My bro accompanied me to the range today and he brought his most recent pawn shop score. A RIA 5" Tac 9mm. He...
STILL WAITING. I have the worst luck.
Personal rule #1: If your 1911 works, don't try to fix it.
New springs, Atlas guide rod, EGW Extractor, EGW thumb safety and ignition kit, Atlas Trigger, Dawson firing pin.
I used a ton of red loctite on the 4-40 screws and they seem to stay put now.

18,000 rounds.
I haven't had any problems or failures of any kind the after the 13,100 round mark. (a grip screw fell out) I have complete faith that as long as I continue to do basic...
These look sharp, and I don't mind the external extractor.

Apparently the shop was closed when they attempted to deliver. Now we wait until next business day/next time I’m available to go pick it up. I feel like I never have a good experience when I order...
Drat.
Ok here we go.

The gun should be in tomorrow or Friday. I'm replacing the springs and firing pin right off the bat to make sure we are starting off on the right foot. I'll update with...
This is the post I've been waiting for!
Where does this stand compared to the Prodigy? My hypothesis is that all things being equal, you get a free magwell and a better finish.
[QUOTE=Tokarev;1548432]Maybe not the camo paint or the ports but certainly some type of red dot mount and also an accessory rail. Some have said they don't care about these features and that not...
I think the external extractor will make thus gun make sense from an institutional perspective.
