    trouble with my new Detonics Combat Master

    :banghead: D'oh! I'm going to make that 3 hour drive so I can drool in person... I think the Detonics has an aluminum trigger -- actually I'm not sure if it's considered to be 'short' or not. How do you tell? By the way, what kind of camera are you using? I'm assuming it's digital.

    trouble with my new Detonics Combat Master

    :eek: Wow, that's a big hammer spur. Mine is short and stunted looking compared to that. :uhoh:

    Talked to Jerry Ahern at Detonics USA yesterday

    So, which is better 9mm or 45acp in a 1911a1-pattern gun? Should I use a full-length guide rod? Is kydex or leather better for a holster? If I were in the market for a pickup truck, should I go with Ford or Chevy? :evil:

    Where to buy clear AR-15 mags?

    DPMS made a clear 10 round magazine. I think they're still available. Actually, they are more a smokey tan than clear. magazine

    trouble with my new Detonics Combat Master

    Thanks for the replies BluesBear -- thanks for the tutorial, I was thinking that a person couldn't change the magazine spring. BTW, how're things? Well, I hope. Lion in Winter -- I would like to point out that I'm not bashing the pistol nor the company. I wasn't planning on doing anything...

    Talked to Jerry Ahern at Detonics USA yesterday

    I recently bought one. I started a thread about it not too long ago. I've had some jamming with it, but it's still in the break-in period. I plan to shoot it some more and if it still jams I'm calling the company.

    trouble with my new Detonics Combat Master

    Thanks for the replies The included 6 round magazine has a welded or crimped or something base. How would one go about replacing the spring? Replacement magazines are $40 on Detonic's website. Why is it single stack magazines are so expensive?!? (I'm thinking Sig 210, HK P7M8, etc...)...

    trouble with my new Detonics Combat Master

    I've used 230 grain ball ammo exclusively. Of course, the manual states 200 rounds minimum, so I probably should put more rounds through it before I call.

    trouble with my new Detonics Combat Master

    Hello. I recently bought a new Detonics Combat Master (the company is now in Georgia). It came with one magazine and is stainless. The gun fits my hand and points very well for me. It came with a little bottle of Militec 1 and came with the stuff already applied. The manual states that...

    Kevin 380 vs Walther PPK/S 380 - Which one?

    Though it's not one of your two choices, have you considered a Sig 232?

    SIG 550 under development for US market

    If they allow a civilian version to be sold in Canada, why would the Swiss Army be against selling one in America? They hate us or something?

    Does anybody share a love of German made guns?

    I do! I'm not sure where my 228 was made. I have a 9mm 220 that was imported by Browning; I think that it's German. My P7M8 is German.

    Thinking about building an AR

    Good luck with your build. You may be heading down the path to BRD (Black Rifle Disease). ;)

    Thinking about building an AR

    All the parts, including the full-auto bolt carrier? :uhoh: My first AR was an Olympic Arms parts kit. I used a Rock River arms lower. If I were to do it again (actually I have, but that's besides the point) I'd go with something prebuilt. I don't think I saved much money building it...

    Weird phenomenon at the shop, versus taking it home?

    Maybe you're excited about your purchase in the store and aren't really concentrating? I've bought stuff and then later when I'm quietly looking at it without all the hustle and bustle I notice things I missed before.
