This past Thurs. evening my retired SC Trooper brother and another good friend played double action combat shooting on silhoutte targets @ 20 yards. We used our tuned model 19's. Great guns still!
I had to take my grips off and tighten the strain screw a bit. I had not fired the gun double action since tuning it and had a few mis-fires. I had fired it probably a couple hundred times single action without incident.
Before someones asks, NO I havent depended on it as a defensive weapon. Needless to say I should have tried it double action before now because one never knows when unforeseen circumstances might dictate the use of any handgun in one's safe. My bad !!! Oh well it's corrected now.
