    sd40 ve.... how do they do it?

    I have just about 8700 rounds down the pipe of one of 3 of my SD's, it seems the only time it has a failure its ammo related or extemely dirty and needs some lube. Other than that all of mine run flawless and i would put it up against any of my other guns in a function drill and test. I am a...

    SW40VE No click no bang.

    True the striker spring may be missing or the second spring may be where the larger one should be. Where is the true strikers spring? Sear block looks to be fully intact but i could be wrong

    SW40VE No click no bang.

    Yes good camera indeed! Yes the strikers should have a considerable amount of pressure forcing it towards the barrel. My guess is the 2 springs in the cavity are inserted wrong but i may be wrong myself. There are many good YouTube tutorials on the disassembly and reassembly of the SW40VE if...

    SW40VE No click no bang.

    Looks like your striker is pulled back almost all the way while its off the slide, this shouldnt be happening and i would take off the slide plate cover and see what its caught on or why thats happening. That could be the reason the sear isnt catching and releasing the strikers finger. While i...

    Newbie looking for a little help

    I back Steelhat 100%. Iwould choose the SD9VE or the m&p9c or m&p shield for defensive purposes

    Home defense ammo for the SD9VE

    Remarks about over penetration about Critical dutys 9mm 135grn +p-it depends on barrel length. My carry guns are 3" and 4" so there would be a loss in velocity and penetration, making it a perfect carry load. My home defense guns with 4" and 5" barrels, make for higher velocity where drywall and...

    Considering Apex Trigger

    It will make the break easier to stage and improve the overall feel. I would also get the spring kit and polish your trigger/sear contact points, this will give you the best feel you can possibly get as of right now.

    SD40VE feed problem

    Could be the extractor spring, ive encountered this problem on reloads but thought it was cases out of spec but it could be the extractor spring, anyone else have or has had this problem before?

    Apex springs in SD40VE - more muzzle flip recoil

    Springs have no way on making your loads hotter. It could be the ammo your using orhw long has it been since youve fired the gun? The springs only lightened the pull of your trigger and lighten the force of the strikers hitting the primer, that would make no difference on recoil. Recoil force...

    SD40VE feed problem

    Do you ride the slide closed or let it slam when you rack it back? I only experience this with cheap ammo and if it doesnt slam like it would from blowback. I advise against polishing the inner chamber of your barrel if you are not a gunsmith or havent done any personal smithing prior...

    M&P 15 Bolt Lubrication Question ?

    Theres not one close but i order from them all the time, almost every tool i own is from HF. What are the dimensions on the cage Jepas? big enough to clean a broke down KSG or just pistols?

    Or with the scope rings just use a 1" maglight and fill with washers or pennies-if no rod can be found

    Home defense ammo for the SD9VE

    Critical Duty Test Pic^ Im also for critical duty 135grn +p ammo. That is my carry ammo in all my guns, its proven, its reliable, and it packs a wallop for a 9mm. Hydrashok can clog or over penetrate but i use it as a backup round. My last resort i use the 124grn speer gold dots or winchester...
