Keystone19250
SAINT
So I made it to the range today with my 1911 45ACP RO and the gun ran flawlessly with the exception of one strike on a dead primer and one failure to feed due to a round with a bad crimp on the bullet that while loading the bullet pushed back into the case and jammed on the feed ramp. Now this outdoor range has a minimum of 50 feet from the shooting line to the target so having not shot the 1911 all that much it took me awhile to dial it in with rear sight adjustment.
Let’s just say I need more time behind this beautiful gun to get better with it.
After today the round count on the RO is 350.
I also took my Saint Edge Pistol 5.56/.223
This gun ran with no issues whatsoever.
I started out with .223 at 50 yards, made some small adjustments to the Vortex Crossfire Red Dot and then moved to 75 yards, I had some flyers but also some good groups with 3-4 shots in 1.5 to 2.5 inch groupings. With after today the Edge pistol has only about 250 rounds through it so it’s still breaking in. I finished up with 25 rounds of 5.56 at 75 yards and although not great I feel pretty good.
One thing I need to Keep an eye on is on Sunday when I oiled the gun I also made an adjustment to the AccuTight Alan head screw to take out what I thought was a little to much play between the upper and lower and I noticed after only 20 rounds it seemed to loosen up again.
So while I was packing up to leave a gentleman showed up with a
“brand new” rifle.
Yes that flint lock was custom made new right here in Kentucky as of 6/20/20 we didn’t talk price but what a beautiful gun.
