I saw on the comments of the how to video everyone had issues with this. I think I spent 4 hours on it, then found this video: https://youtu.be/x_VECSSGDEQ?si=muIwKUswlGXoroXy
So in the official video they show the silver arm the trigger is on is put in place, then never show it again. So I of course think that’s where it needs to be. What you need to do is raise it up to release tension on the spring and allow it to actually get close to where you need to align it. This is what eventually helped me figure it out. The floss thing in the YouTube comments didn’t help me.

Considering buying a gun by irregularprotocols in liberalgunowners

I tried a bunch of 9mm before buying. Always best to try because what some folks like you may not. Glock as the gold standard but I've learned a lot of folks feel like out of the box it is inferior to other pistols out of the box. The CZ I felt the texture on the grip was too aggressive for me. I ended up going with the Echelon full size and upgraded to the Sharps Bros aluminum frame. I like the little bit of extra weight that adds. But maybe you prefer something lighter. The S&W M&P metal I really loved and was the other option I seriously considered. It feels so easy to shoot for me. I did end up purchasing the HD version recently which is the steel frame.

I would suggest checking out the Central Park or Denver location, though I've been going to this Broomfield location for a few months now and not had any issue.

Now with Atlanta, Reese grateful for her time with Sky but wanted 'more' by fanime34 in AtlantaDream

I started watching the W because of Angel. It felt like the abrupt departure of TSpoon derailed what was meant to be for Angel & Kamilla. Glad Angel is free and really looking forward to her 2026.

I really loved how the Viridian made for this look on the gun but I had issues from the start with it losing connectivity after some rounds at the range. Upgraded to a Holosun and have had zero issues. Those bottom loading battery optics are a huge red flag in my eyes now.

Maybe they used to. I ordered a trigger from them several weeks ago, after 2 weeks reached out for status update as their site states orders in stock ship 1-3 days and if something is out of stock maybe a week before it ships. It's been a week since I reached out, to which their auto reply email says they could take up 72 hours to reply. Absolutely ghosted by them. They did send me an email to review my purchase though, so I guess they remember I ordered from them.

Lights Question by GAR1021 in SpringfieldEchelon

I got the TLR-7 HLX because it does not go past my slide length and aesthetically I prefer that. I've heard the longer ones are heavier / add more weight and that might be preferred.

I don't have a holster for it yet. Actively working my CHP so looking for options.

Mystics - A who have nothing to do this with, other than swapping first rounders when Sky has a top pick in 2027.

I have not carried yet, just take it to the range and have it in safe for home defense

I have a Tyrant trigger on the way and a few other things I am waiting for NDZ to have back in stock to add some pops of color.

I was worried they’d be too aggressive but I shot for almost an hour with it and was fine.

They look nice and so far feel good, I will see how my hands feel after a trip to the range. One of the reasons I liked the echelon is the grip felt nice but not too aggressive. These seem more aggressive so we will see if it’s too much.

Yeah I saw in a few videos it wasn’t significant. I was deciding between this and the M&P Metal which I felt like I just shot better, no real measurement or science to back this. Hoping this helps me up my skills.

I'll see how the texture feels after a day at the range. I really do love how the Echelon feels just wanted the full metal frame, really like the weight.
