How is Todd's family doing? Does anybody know? Hope they're holding up okay.

I honestly regret taking time off from this site (well... forums in general), because it probably means I lost a lot of chances to interact and correspond with Todd while he was here.

:/

I'm honestly really sad that I wasn't able to take a class from Todd, and never met him.

That said, his postings and anecdotes shaped who I am as a shooter. I read almost every post on...

Thicker front strap to accommodate checkering.
Flat bottom firing pin stop.
Ring hammer.
Novak sight cuts.
No mag disconnect safety.
Altered sear lever geometry for reduced reset.
Single side...

I didn't realize Todd was carrying a Glock again.

Are you moving away from the 1911? :mad:

Bill, who does make an acceptable P35 safety?

For the price of the Mk. 25, you could consider a Wilson worked Beretta. A "G-conversion" gun isn't too expensive.

But that's unless you've already decided.

From what I understand a standard...

I hope to see more out of this thread.

I love threads like this.

Why will hybrid and wadcutter lips last longer?

This is exactly what I plan on doing with them. Range use only. 230gr. ball ammo only.



Burn.

I'm thinking of getting a few. They'd only be used with ball ammo, due to their feed lips. I'm mainly interested in them as a way to keep wear and tear off my carry mags.

I know the baseplates are...

I love grip checkering specifically because the more the pistol locks in, the less effort I have to use to hold onto it, which prevents my wrists and hands from tensing up. If my hand is too tense, I...

Mine need to be checkered. I like 25lpi, and aggressive grips. I flip between Simonich Gunner grips, and Double Diamonds. Both VZ.

I'm glad. I miss your 1911 posts.

For your requirements:

Beretta 92 (or the Wilson BrigTac), or the HK P30 LEM should work.

All 1911s should have it by default.

Where does Walter Birdsong's Black-T fit in?

I don't have experience with 9x19mm 1911s, but I do have experience tuning a .45 Commander.

Here's what I'd do with a full size 9x19mm gun:

Flat bottom firing pin stop, with a strong main...

:cool:

Glad to see this thread still around.

That one on the right doesn't look right.

I would love to see them bring the Vertec back as a standard production item. With or without rail. Or 92 Brigadier gun. It'd be great as a base gun.

I don't hang around the Romper Room much, but I feel like I missed this thread!

Glad to see you're doing alright.

Thank you, Jon!

WCR, that's the problem. There's no real resources that talk about barrel timing.
