That’s a great option, thanks for posting. I almost bought one (still might) but I’m hopeful smoothing the mags and removing excess lube will allow my 22/45 to run the Aguila more reliably. If not,...
Ja interested as well. My .38 LCR measures 8.3 lbs on my digital Lyman, after four years ownership and almost 700 rounds.
For $125 which includes the bolt tune up kit, and the RSA to also allow me to mess with recoil springs…hmmm
Forum has been running extremely fast for me the last few days. No issues. I know we kvetch a lot when things go wrong, but I thought I'd take a minute and mention something positive.

I just wanted to drag in a few of my logbook entries for future reference. I'll see how things turn out at the next range session after doing the below. We are going out of town for a few days, so...
Video from Enforce Tac 2024:

I ran the video description through a German English translator and came up with this, not 100% sure it's correct...
The specific Aguila I have notably slower than the CCI, I assume I have the subsonic variety? The other obvious difference is the plating on the CCI (copper) as opposed to the bare lead with the...
FWIW these are the two ammo types I have. The CCI read 1,235 fps, the Aguila 1,130. I guess I have standard velocity Aguila because I can't see any thing that would indicate otherwise...

I replaced the mag springs and button on Magazines 1 and 2 with original Ruger parts. (Man, those Ruger springs are much longer and springier than the VQ springs - it was a small rodeo getting them...

Picture sums up my experience trying out the Aguila Super Extra ammo - no good in this gun. I was barely able to shoot two mags worth. Out of 20 rounds, I'd guess maybe I had 6 or 7 failure...
That's a great article.
I may have missed it, but were any of the design team left handed? Reading about the evolution of the high-horn grip from VZ with the speedloader cut, appears to be...
I stopped by the fancy pants gun range today in The Villages (FL) to shoot my LCR and .22, and there was no .32 H&R on the shelf, at all. Which I found odd, as I've seen a few boxes there before. ...
You may have gotten this advice already, but it's an idea to just get the gun home, inspect it after a field strip, then take it to the range and see how it shoots for you. 1911s are very...
What size are your hands? S? M? L? XL?
As a footnote/Item of interest/to pile on, the issues I had with my Glock 48 were all with Speer Gold Dot 124+p, my carry ammo at the time.
1 - Torx T10
2 - no plate
3 - M3 x 0.5mm x 10mm flat head screws from McMaster-Carr, Part no. https://www.mcmaster.com/catalog/130/3479/94414A714
4 - 15 in lbs, Wheeler FAT wrench
5 - Blue...
It may be an old (captive rear sight) or new (dovetail rear sight) style slide thing?
I used 10mm McM-C screws for my old style P365XL slide, without a plate, EPS Carry install last year.
I bought this Spyderco Dragonfly 2 in 2019 and have carried it ever since.

My criteria would be lightweight, compact, sharp, thin, easy to cut with, and it does all these.
I've owned both, no longer have either. I am not convinced there's a comparison to be made...but I am probably biased, since I didn't like them for different reasons. For my purposes about all they...

I think this is a good set of questions...unless you sit down and decide what you want to achieve, you are going to get a bunch of answers to questions you haven't asked yet.
So:
You have a...
‘The Sting’, the 1973 film by George Roy Hill starring Paul Newman. Awesome movie.
Gotta love the classics.
TGIF.

Same positive experience with Velocity Ammo as I had in January; my order of 200xFederal WC I ordered on Saturday night arrived yesterday here in central Florida yesterday with no issues.
