Now that dual recoil spring assemblies are becoming more and more common, I have to ask what advantage does it actually have over a traditional single spring set-up which is rated at the same strength? Physically, in terms of performance there should be no difference. Dual recoil spring...

I am currently interested in ordering some Georgia Arms .44 magnum JHP's in 240 grain. On their site, this ammo is rated at 1325 fps (not sure of barrel length -- probably 10" though). On their energy calculator, these are rated at 935.8 ft/lbs. I want them for my Desert Eagle, Mark XIX. I...

I did the searches and found some info, but I need more. I am looking for what is consistently reliable ammo for the Desert Eagle (Mark XIX) in .44 magnum. So far, this is what I have gathered: Reliable: Magtech 240 grain JHP's Magtech 240 grain JSP's Prvi Partisan 240 grain JHP's...

Armscor .357 125gr ammo is listed at 1875 fps and 984ft/lb.!...not sure of barrel length. Maybe those numbers are rated a little higher than reality, but having used them in the past I can attest to their power. They are HOT...hotter than any other .357 magnum round I have ever used or seen...

I asked this at TFL with no replies, so I'll ask here: What are some of the differences between the different generations of Sigs. Specifically, I have a very early P229 and I was wondering how a gen 2 is different. Is there a gen 3, even? I know about the break-down lever change, but other...

I did my search and could not find one single thread specifically about this topic, believe it or not. Anyway, I recently came across some related threads in which posters unsolicitely recommended going with the XD over the XDM. I would like to know why. Or explain why you think the XDM is...

I have to ask: is there actually a major advantage of the dual recoil spring set-up of the gen4 series versus the single spring of previous generations if they are equal in strength/power rating (i.e. aftermarket springs for gen 3's equaling the power of gen 4 spring assemblies)? Perhaps a dual...

I just got some ammo from Reed's (which, in my experience makes good ammo and has good CS) for my Desert Eagle .44 magnum. I ordered SJSP and HP ammo (the latter of which is actually a SJHP). Upon my receipt of the order, I saw that amount of lead exposed on the front of the rounds was more...

I posted this in TFL and so far have gotten zero replies. I can only surmise as to why. Anyway, it is a legitimate concern and I would appreciate some feedback which could help alleviate my concerns and answer my questions. So here it is: Straight to the point... I have a concern with...

I am considering replacing my stock rod with either a Kahr factory stainless or Wolff rod (and springs). But I hesitate because it took me quite a while and a bit of detective work to get my MK40 Elite 98 to function 100%. Am I senselessly worrying or do my concerns have some merit? What have...

Okay, I have read about this on more than a few occasions. It involves removing the standard coil trigger-reset spring found in the trigger mechanism housing and replacing it with an 8 lb. New York leaf spring (which also houses a pushing coil spring). This causes the cruciform plate to be...

I am a new poster, however I have been reading postings here as well as elsewhere for a long time. However, I have never been able to find out the answer to my question which is: at any time over the course of the last 10+ years, has Sig actually done anything to beef up the strength of the...
