I did. My trigger pull tests consistently in the 2lb range. With a Wheeler digital gauge. This is a lot less than what Nighthawk advertises, but consistent with posts I’ve read with claims of 50% reduction in trigger pull. I can’t discount the possibility that I could just be using the gauge in...

Put another 200rods through Prodigy today since getting it back from Springfield. No ftf but did have 2 light primer strikes. All 200rds was S&B 124 FMJ. Wondering if this could be an ammo issue. I saw some old posts about people having similar issues with S&B but the latest (that I saw) was...

How many guns have you bought then sold without shooting them? me: Walther PPK Manurhin FN FNP A pair of Ruger Vaqueros Winchester lever action CZ PO1 ATI 1911 Commander

I’ve read good things about Red Hill Tactical

“…I think you’re chasing an ideal rather than an actual gun….” You’re on to something. Looking for the perfect pistol for me. I’ve had SAO’s, DAO, DA/SA etc. There always seems to be a trade off. Once I discovered the double stack 1911, I knew I found the platform. Now I just want the best gun...

Starting to consider selling my Prodigy and P320 and picking up a Staccato P. I’ll lose some money but …..

Sorry I wasn’t clear. Not saying the Staccato and Bul Armory are priced lower than the Prodigy. What I mean is that the Prodigy, Bul Armory and Staccato ($1,600 -$2,500 or so) are lower priced pistols compared to Atlas, Chambers, etc (above $5k)

I love the double stack platform! Best option (for me) in terms of ergonomics, trigger and capacity. I now have my Prodigy 4.25“ with some mods done but still have less than 500 rounds down range. I wonder how much better (if at all) some of the other “lower priced“ pistols are. I’m particularly...

Never mind …. Returned the TLR-1

Sent the TLR-1 back. Going to get a Surefire X-300. I have mixed feelings. I know it’s a great light, but it seems a bit long for the 4.25” model.

@dajogejr, I like the idea of the single sided safety. Any thoughts on whose is a “drop-in“ part or close to it? Which Staccato do you have and how do the Prodigy and Staccato compare?

I’ll bet you’re a fun one to have a conversation with …..

The first failure was a Federal American Eagle 147gr flat nose. The second failure would have been either S&B 124gr or Winchester 124gr NATO. I have a lot more shooting to do to see how things work out. I have collected about a thousand rounds of various brands and types of ammo 115, 124, 138...

Springfield had it for a month I’m used to waiting. It’ll be easy to tell yours from mine. Mine will be the one that’s marred up from my home gunsmithing work … it’s a good thing I don’t do it for a living. I’d be on the street.

I saw that! Still can’t get it to mount … These damn new hands of mine just can’t seem to do anything lately.
