I will raise up for the bait. Only have one Taurus now. A PT1911 9mm. Started to lock up. Barrel lugs were being battered. Round count is low, maybe 2000 rounds. One very respected gunsmith here in Pearland said a barrel and maybe slide were needed without even seeing it. Said to ship to...

Mine is a Sig RCS, a melted C3, Nitron coating and nightlights. The officer frame conceals fine.

Yes, That is correct.

Tried a half dozen things. Even reinstalled the lock washer that was under the factory barrel but. Both thread adapter. Both thread adapter manufacturers said leave out. They were right. Shot even worse, eight inches shift at 12 yards. But while removing washer accidentally knocked barrel...

I had a Firestar. Loved the looks. But could not shoot it very well. Trigger was terrible. Sold it a couple months ago, Hope new owner has better results.

Will try the Odd Job advise, have another Yankees Hills 22LR suppressor. But since Walther SP22 shot exactly the same POI with the same suppressor it is difficult to blame the suppressor. SP22 was easier to shoot with suppressor. Could use the suppressor like a sight rail. The S&W 422 barrel...

Installed a different thread adapter. Made up a little past bottoming out. Now 4 inches high dead center. At 12 yards. Guess frame is not true. Will try hand right with LocTite like original barrel nut manufacturer recommended. Thought I heard a ringing when tightened up at first. I hoped...

Contacted the seller of the adapter. They recommend torquing to 25 in-lbs. Factory barrel nut felt like 50 ft-lbs. Pulling the adapter and going to torque to 25 in-lb. Then shoot to see if POI changes with of without suppressor. Definitely will need LockTite at the tension. Finger tight is at...

Was running a Yankee Hill suppressor on a Walther SP22. No noticeable shift in POI. Found out my S&W 422 has a threaded barrel. Installed the adapter and suppressor. Tightened up adapter the same as original barrel, very tight. Took out and sights were still spot on. Installed suppressor and...

Own both But am biased. My Colt LW Commander is at Colt getting fixed. From my small sample the Sig feeds better and is more accurate in my hands. The difference may go away when the Colt comes back. That is why it is back at the factory. I like the fit of the slide stop and the safety...

Shooting Low Yes, even from a rest it shoots 6" low and 10 yards. So the 7 yard would be about 4". The front sight is not tall enough to correct, it is a low profile to begin with. I like carring in the car when travleing. That is what it was purchased for back when new. A trip to a smith is...

Thanks Walt, Thanks for all the good ideas. The shape of the lugs looks like a factory design. Not sure why, maybe to help go back into and up of battery. The barrel has a little fore and aft movement when the slide is off. And can be pushed up a little. I need to put a set of calipers to...

I have run this S&B through my full size 9mm's and it is hotter than the WWB, Federal Champion, and Speer Gold Dot (not +P). Feels hotter than the Winchester Nato loads also. But back to the Plus. I looked it over to see why it is a little loose shooting, and consistently low. The locking lugs...

Thanks for the input I treat my alloy framed 1911 the same way. The steel framed one gets most of the practice rounds. My question comes from having shot up all the normal pressure 9mm ammo I had. The S&B is not labeled as +P, but is hotter than any +P I have found. The full size steel...

Broken in now I have run 300 - 400 rounds through it now and it is shooting better. Since it sat for close to 20 years, replaced the recoil spring and firing pin spring with a Wolff replacement set. Ordered a hammer spring, but will wait to see if it starts to light strike. Lubed the trigger...

My mistake I was referring to the slide inside the frame design. This feature is listed as why the CZ are such good designs. The trigger designs are variable in some models now. There are models of CZ and clones with SA triggers. Of the three I have two are DA/SA and one is SAO. Taking...

Did not like the Federal Champions They feed fine, but seem to give loose grouping. The Hanson Combat were a lot tighter. Still breaking it in. Plan on running another 100 rounds of plinking rounds. Hope it likes the Speer Gold Dots. Found more boxes in the attic. Hope to use these once...

Went to the range again Put an old box of Hanson Combat through it. Was shooting better. Trigger is cleaning up. Still not a tack driver. But shoots good. Shot the same ammo in a CZ 75B and spread was much smaller. I will look for a smith. But it is accurate enough for me as a carry...

Put 50 more through it Will take Walt's advise and get a smith to work on the trigger. Works great but the trigger is too long and mushy. It is a nice looking and reliable shooting gun. No +P loads, but has shoot everyone tried so far. George

Went to the range today. Put a mixed box of Silvertips, Rem JHP, and Win Ball. These were close to 30 years old, the Silvertips were green brass. Then half a pack of the Federal Champions from Wallmart. No issues. Fed everything. Ejected like a demon. Functionality was perfect with some OLD...
