It has been many years since Aguila had Eley primer. I bought it right at the changeover. I went through 10,000 rounds of the Eley prime version, without any issues. The next thousand came with their own primer compound, and I didn’t notice the box had changed to saw Aguila prime at first. Once...

I’ve been running a 9mm FS CORE too end on my .40 in competition for many years without issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I run a non-ported Gunsmith-fit Apex barrel in mine. I believe they don’t sell the gunsmith-fit anymore in favor of drop-in and semi drop-in fit, but both are excellent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The high price of primers and lack of cheap 9mm ammo has stopped me from shooting it altogether. I used to shoot 1500-2000 rounds of 9mm per month in competition, but that went out the window after I ran down to only 5k primers. I am still shooting .22 in competition but I slowed way down on...

I’ve recently switched to Eley ammo since they’re the only ones I could find that didn’t raise their price during the pandemic. It went from being expensive, but high quality ammo to exceptional value high quality ammo! I just ordered another 2500 rounds of Eley Contact on Friday and got it...

I’m curious what these are going for nowadays. I have a nice K-22 and K-38 set that have been passed down from my grandfather and It would be nice to know the current value. Here’s some pics of mine, and no, I will never part with them and simply want to get an idea what they’re worth...

This virus has forced a break in my competition schedule so I’ve been playing with my M&P open project gun in 9major. Got it almost dialed in and really enjoying it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

1. I have a PC CORE slide kit on my M&P9 FS and like it a lot. I don’t use the PC barrel because it isn’t allowed in USPSA, and it isn’t close to the accuracy of the Apex barrel I have in it. 2. The PC barrel was more accurate than my stock barrel which after 10k rounds was about 5” at 25...

I finally sold my Ruger Super Redhawk .44mag. It was great with .44 specials, but with .300 grain Buffalo Bore or even hot .240 grain loads it felt like getting hit in the palm with a ball peen hammer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Which aftermarket 5 in M&P 9mm Pro barrel Apex isn’t making the gunsmith first barrels for the time being because they sell far more semi-drop in and the average accuracy difference is about half an inch at 25 yards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a Storm Lake 5” barrel I’d sell cheap. I used it with my Pro until I bought a CORE top end and sold the Pro top with factory barrel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My K-38 was just called a Masterpiece, not a Combat Masterpiece. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s not for frames with a manual safety, it’s for guns with the magazine disconnect safety. I’d your gun came with the magazine disconnect (it cannot fire with the mag removed) then order the version for mag disconnect guns. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve got a M&P40, a M&P9 full size and M&P9 CORE that have many thousands of rounds without extractor issues. I used to compete with the 40 and still compete in Carry Optics with the CORE so they aren’t getting gentle treatment. Guess I’ve been lucky, but I don’t know anyone else who has had...
