    You might play with using a heavier bullet. Smith recommends not using less than a 120 grain projectile in their scandium .38/.357 revolvers as it exacerbates bullet pull issues. That said, I shoot...

    I’d tend to agree with Outpost in suspecting this is probably largely a software issue to be remedied with diligent perfect 🙃 repetitions of dry practice.

    The different triggers in the Kahrs is news to me. I own an early version P9 I carried as a bug for a lot of years from the early 2000s. I own a newer P9 (4ish years old?) and similar vintage PM9...

    A less expensive and more versatile route might be just installing a rail section on the receiver and using the factory low micro mount that came with your Aimpoint. I have an EGW rail on an 870,...

    I own an MOS SCS and I’m quite a fan. I’m about 4K down range with it and I’m confident enough that I’m using it on a work pistol. It DOES cowitness with stock height Glock sights. My understanding...

    Yes. Arguably it's more of an issue with the older breech block guns. Also, if, while you're tapping the pin back in, you are met with any resistance, realize the firing pin notch may be partially...

    I'm be leaning toward the mainspring system too. I'd put the stock weight one back in with the correct seat and strut and confirm function. It it ignites 100% then you can dabble with a lighter...

    Pull-ups are still a part of my daily fitness regiment. Typically just a couple sets of 15. I always reached a plateau around 18-20 reps. And doing more volume never seemed to allow me to break...

    A DA/SA X5 (ie- the X5 allround) lower is “plug and play” as you say, with any of the standard 4.4” 9mm 226 uppers. The dust cover will simply extend to the end of the slide, very similar to the...

    I modified a standard 226 slide stop lever a few years ago such that I can releases it over the top of the safety on a SAO 226. I also run extended stops on my 1911s to achieve the same ability. But...

    Copy. Fwiw, mine didn’t initially appear to be either. But was, just slightly, on the two little raised protuberances on either side of the sight channel.

    This is a pair of Allrounds that were my USPSA guns for a time. They make most of the other pistols in my safe feel like a bit of a chore to shoot, if I’m being honest.
