Pushing closer to 4 grains will probably clean things up a bit. I imagine you're getting a fair amount of unburnt powder at that 3.5gr charge. 4 grains will probably also increase recoil a fair...
Reading comprehension late last night was apparently poor on my end, and I didn't re-read your post before posting today. I see how I missed it now. I remembered it as the trigger pull getting harder...
revchuck38 --Well, I spoke too soon. Mine also seemed to have a hard hitch right at the end of the pull for the first few rounds I fired today. The good news is that leaving the first 5 rounds worth...
Hopefully it cleans up for you without having to send it back. Keep us updated. Mine felt a little "dry" lube wise, straight from the box. Not gritty, and no hitches, but like it could use some lube....
I might have a J-frame problem...

And a speed loader/speed strip problem.
25 rounds each of 130gr Ranger and 135gr +P...
I left work a bit early today, and stopped in at one of the shops I had put feelers out to to find a UC for me... and they just happened to have a 442 that just came in earlier today. It wasn't even...
Finally had a chance to listen. Some gems for sure... much of the ground covered was... familiar. :cool:
"Duty" was part of the premise of this thread, but I think we all at least consider concealment a lot more seriously "here" than your average joe "out there" so we trend to drift that way and weight...
Sun Tzu can bill me...
I believe it. Sig really has kicked Glocks ass on the 9mm "slim" guns, both in form/capacity, and marketing them. It doesn't hurt that they seem to work pretty dang well, and are shootable for lots...
I *can* conceal it under a T-shirt... but its not optimal concealment gear. Mission drives the gear train. I'm willing to "dress around the gun" when I have to. Sometimes getting made matters more...
For sure. As a reference my 5 shot 3" S&W 60-10 .357 J-frame revolver weighs roughly the same as my G19.5 w/RMR... fully loaded the Glock might be a little heavier, but it's also 3X the capacity,...
Everyone tends to look at things through their own prisms for sure. Upthread a comment was made that you had to be a bigger guy to conceal a Glock 19... which IME, isn't true. I'm not particularly...
It's the only way to be sure...
Gah! Don't tell me that!...
It's specific to the 19X frame. It has a protrusion at the bottom of the frontstrap that will hit the extended beveled lip at the front of the Gen 5 mags. The 45 frame, and 17/34 frames don't have...
This about sums it up.
Pistol bullets of almost all types and calibers will penetrate interior walls and still be dangerous. Surprisingly 5.56mm/.223, even most of the barrier blind LE loads, are...
This and the fact that Gen 3 mags, and some early Gen 4 mags do not have the ambi/reversible magazine catch notch are the exceptions to the rule. Those early mags won't work in a lefty setup Gen4/5. ...
A bodyguard style variant would interest me... I don't know why but I've always loved those ugly things, despite never owning one. That said... I need to be able to find a 442 first. I still have not...
PERSEC bro...
But that is pretty funny.
I also saw this earlier today, and haven't seen it linked here in the thread. Revolverguy's third article about the UC guns, and a bit more about actually shooting them, and some (bleh) clear gel...
I am glad someone(s) pushed for this project to happen... and I'd like to think some of the ideas could be applied to other lines/models, but I do have my doubts about the revolver market making a...
FireClean FTW!... Also works for seasoning cast iron, in a pinch. :rolleyes:
Kidding.
As of late I've been using EWL30... but I also have half a gallon of CLP that I still need to use up. I've...
I have to say... I'm a bit envious of those of you who have got your hands on these. Really looking forward to getting my paws on one eventually.
