Thanks for the catch..brian dead I guess.. 3 tenths of a grain difference.

Well ihave a clark long heavy slide In made in 82. It has a slightly cut.down std.16 lb spring..straight from clark

I'd start with a std 5" spring( wolff or ISMI) of 10 or 11lbs.

Wofford makes a long spring for the 6" pistols that you can cut to length. Thin wire.

What did Clark use in the 70 and 80s ??.simply a cut down stock spring

I routinely run 10-11 l recoil springs in my wad guns with no ill affects.. i run 3.9 BE at the LL but change to WST for.all my short line loads. WST has a very different recoil impulse..much softer than BE. Try it you'll like it. Typically WST requires around 3 more grains that BE for a similar loa...

Any bullseye Smith can do a 2.5lb trigger on a 1911 and it will be totally safe.. i do my own roll triggers and have several 38 spl and 38 super 1911 with them.. in Ca, Try Jon Eulette. Dave Salyer is a fine Smith located in SC.. with our modern sears and hammers its not rocket science..

If you can find one the styer LP1 can be converted to PCP. Styer still sells the conversion. Krale has them..only high quality CO2 thay has that option thay I'm awair of. I have the listone victor and their larger PCP pistol which is a copy of a walther Ap20.. decent pistol and trigger. Its called t...

If you can find one an Old Lyman M5 made by Ohaus. One of the best they ever made

All time record score in competition for BE was set with iron sights Hershal Anderson. Score was 2680 out of a possible 2700 Scary good. There have been folks close with dots but no one has even tied him yet. So the dots are not necessarily better but they do allow you to see your errors more clearl...

Not sure when the rule changed but the 1st national champion in BE using one was 80-81. Joe Pascarella

That really got folks attention as not many people were using them.. rule change was probably 77-78..I was shooting the nationals during those years

check out the Match masters at the Last resort range in Columbia Tn.. info and contacts can be found on Magnus Bullets website under Match masters. good folks

Yes Alpha grips will fit but may need a touch of work.. I have the Co2 version and got some of the Alpha wooden adjustable grips for it in a co2 configuration. had to modify the grip a bit as the CO2 chamber is a bit different.. but it worked out fine

replace the trigger return spring.. it sits under the adjustment bar and applied pressure to it..

you should check out the LAP1 if you end up not liking the Alpha


basically a Walther AP20 pro

we have both the Listone victor in Co2 and the LAP1 in Air.. both have been very reliable.. Pressure is adjustable on both.. the LAP1 is pretty much a Walther copy as Walther grips fit perfectly once you get their adjustable arm for the grips.. Trigger is setup like the Walthers. Both shoot very wel...

should be a screw on the inside of the frame(grip area) that holds the Slide stop and spring. Maybe a allen but still a small screw.. Look at the X-esse diagram on the Walther web site for a parts break down. https://www.carl-walther.com/fileadmin/uploads/media/partsdrawings/Hämmerli_x-esse_2773473_...

look at slightly tightening up the slide stop.. it has a Torx screw you can access with the grips off through the frame... it needs to be firm against the frame yet free enough for the Mag spring to push it up and lock the slide back are these new magazines.. load the Mags one round at a time, pulli...

If you do any serious pistol work you're going to use those large heavy.tools... i currently have 2 mills and 2 lathes for pistol and rifle work. Also a tig welder And lots of hand tools specific to the 1911. If you are going to have a pistol that shoots a maximum of 1.5" at 50 yds you have a l...
