    hellcat pro slide locked closed with round in chamber

    Check the headspace on the chamber? Check Chamber walls, are they smooth, no nicks or raised edges? On the XD/M the slide will not rack if the grip safety is not pressed in, I don't know if the same is true with the Hellcat, but I would confirm it. I had a bad snap cap when I got my XD-M Elite...

    I'll be darned, my free optic mounting plate from Springfield Armory showed up within a week. So different than last time, perhaps they were out of the plate I had ordered last time?

    and it is very human, when doing a quick repetitive task, and a little distracted, we see what we expect to see and miss the reality.... ....that is why double and triple checks, each person checks, etc is also good practice.... ...not being insecure and get insulted if someone checks for...

    I remember the lead up to the 1st Gulf War, the media promoting the few malcontents in the military, claiming they shouldn't have to go, because when they joined the military they never thought they would have to fight in a war.....:rolleyes: I have the same tolerance for folks that claim they...

    Alec Baldwin charged...!!

    :unsure: If he was using a fake gun, wouldn't the cameras woman be alive today? It is an acceptable legal defense that pointing a fake gun at someone justifies their action in self-defense. Ignorance of the law is no excuse, claiming ignorance of firearms is not an excuse either. The movie...

    Powder River Precision Drop In Trigger Kits

    My son has G19 that he put a Timney Trigger kit, it changes the action from DA/Safe Action to Single Action, basically defeating a safety feature of the pistol.... ....of course he doesn't carry it, but yea, not sure I would want to do that to a pistol....

    There were using the prop guns for target shooting between takes. There are reports of live ammunition being found all over the set. There are reports of staff walking off the set because of the obvious poor safety conditions and several near accidents. This is Hanna Guiterrezz-Reed whom they...

    Powder River Precision Drop In Trigger Kits

    Yea, 4-4.5lb is all I go, mostly because the level I'm shooting at, lower than that is just not going to provide any benefit... (I mean I'm not a good enough shooter that a hair trigger is going to make a difference), so I gladly keep a safer (IMO) heavier trigger at that magic (for me) 4.5lb...

    Unfortunately, their industry set a standard that actors are too stupid to be trusted with gun safety..... I don't agree with it... But, on that fact alone, he likely could get off.... Yes, he has additional responsibility as a producer that didn't catch all the warning signs something like...

    anti-tank gun seized at airport...like WTF...???

    I don't put it past the media to report the story in a way to contribute to a leftist anti-gun agenda.... Nothing to see here, oh wait, if we leave out the details about it being inert and being used as a prop for a trade show, well then, a reasonable person would read this and shake their head...

    Powder River Precision Drop In Trigger Kits

    Yep the extended grip safety should help. Personally, I never have had a problem. I don't like firearms with less safety features.... I was always suspicious of glocks with what I assumed was just a trigger blade safety, after I understood the DA/Safe Action, I realized that is enough to make...

    Alec Baldwin charged...!!

    Remember, Alec Baldwin was not only the actor that pulled the trigger, he was a producer on the show, and a producer that did very little to address the safety concerns that had staff walking off the set, nor did very little to address the eye opening safety failures that had already happened...

    Powder River Precision Drop In Trigger Kits

    LOL, I bought that too.... For my XD-M .45, since my others were XD-M Elites, the XD-M just has a standard curve grip safety that fits totally flush in the grip. The XD-M Elite has the bulb on the bottom that still extends after the grip safety has been fully depressed. I guess the idea is for...

    Got a CZ 75 today

    My brother and son have CZ-97's, they are nice pistols.... My son loved the wood grips that came with the version of the 97 he got, but then I got him VZ grips for XMAS. He installed a trigger kit as well.... Why has CZ discontinued the 97? Or did they just discontinue one version of the 97?

    Hellcat 22lr exists - Shotshow 2023

    Warranty is for defects in materials and workmanship.... ....i.e. for what the manufacturer screwed up.... ...warranties are never for what the owner screwed up... ...the disclaimers and the one quoted above, say exactly that.... If the kit breaks the pistols, then its not covered...

    Hellcat 22lr exists - Shotshow 2023

    Keeping in mind the bore is .224", I'm going to guess it is off axis by an 1/8th of an inch..... In theory, that means you'll be 1/8" off the POI.....

    Hellcat 22lr exists - Shotshow 2023

    But, if you line up the firing pin and extractor with the rim of the .22lr, you could avoid having to replace the slide in the kit, which would reduce its price considerably.....

    I got a message saying my pistol was not part of the promotion. So yes, SA is checking serial numbers and they are not going to honor a free optics plate for a non-OSP pistol.
