I have seen six or seven different variations of "lightening cuts" on the underside of P320 slides and I also believe this was the result of a design evolution.
That linked article is full of baloney. They make the claim that the early slide failures with the predescessor of the M9 "sent more than a dozen people to the hospital with serious injuries". The...
Yes, I think that is a safe assumption.
I have read on the beretta forum that factory Beretta mainsprings with the same power rating have varied over the years for the same pistol model. It isn't just the overall length but the thickness...
I currently have a Wilson Combat 14 lb mainspring in my Beretta 92 FS. I have shot a good bit of the Winchester NATO and I have not had light strikes, but I have heard or read some complaints...
I disagree. First off, if Winchester is claiming a muzzle velocity of 1130 fps for the 124 grain 9 mm WWB I think they are over stating the case. This is just based on my impression from recoil...
I buy the Winchester NATO 124 grain ammunition whenever I see it at a good price online. It is a little hotter than standard pressure 9 mm Para but not as hot as many +P designated loads. Primer...
I had a few light primer strikes with eastern European steel case ammo using a WC 13lb spring in my 92FS, but not with commercial brass case ammo. I currently have the 14lb WC spring in it and have...
Thinner grips will reduce the trigger reach to the DA trigger a little if that is an issue. It sounds as if you are looking to reduce the DA trigger pull length, however. If you are still running a...
I installed the WC short reach trigger in my 92FS years ago. It reduces trigger reach slightly. I did not attempt any measurements, but I do not believe that it shortened the overall length of the...
I have two for the Beretta 92FS and they have not given me any problems.
Any visible wear on the head of the disconnector?
I received my full-size P320 .45 ACP back from SIG after the modification earlier this week. I also have an as yet unmodified compact P320 9 mm. Neither pistol had a long lightening rout on the...

This is a photo posted on another forum of three P320 slides all modified by SIG at the same go-around. Obviously, they all had different lightening routs. The one on the right looks as if...
I did see one photo of a modified P320 slide some where that had a long, shiny stripe along the entire right side that might have resulted from SIG milling down a step.
The "divot" that is milled out for the disconnector is much deeper than that step off. I strongly suspect that the disconnector will get depressed as soon as it leaves the little pocket.
There is a member of another forum who stated that SIG did replace the slide of his P320 when he sent it in for the modification. I do not see any reason there should be an issue with the two slides...
I guess the question in my mind is if this type of arrangement will result in accelerated wear and possible breakage of the disconnector. Fortunately, neither of my two P320s have that long...
I just received my full-size P320 .45 ACP back today. I have been comparing the trigger function to my unmodified compact P320 9 mm. I have only dry-fired the modified P320 as yet. I never noticed...
The SIG P229 is a great pistol to shoot either .40 S&W or 357 SIG with. I agree with others who have mentioned that the "snappiness" of .40 caliber depends very much on the pistol one is shooting it...
I have a recurring nightmare in which I go to prison and wind up in a cell with James Yeager.
Yes, I am aware of the law of supply and demand. The decline in cost for .40 S&W ammunition has actually been going on for some time and not just within the last 6 months or a year. It is clear...
I doubt very much that the supply of .40 S&W ammunition will be drying up anytime soon. There are tons of pistols out there chambered in that caliber. What are the owners going to do? Put them in...
I have a very similar RIA government model 1911, now called the full-size "Rock" with the beavertail grip safety, Commander style hammer, ambi safety levers and full length guide rod, but mine is not...
