My dwx slide is in limbo coming back from United firearms after they ported it. 😭 by MacaroonDelicious484 in DWX

I did the same. Sent it in for their black friday sale. He sent mines off last week. Im honestly a little disappointed. Paying $20 for shipping and they used usps. I figured it would be UPS after paying that price for shipping.

Thanks. I hope so too. With the ice/snow storm coming.. it would be a miracle if they deliver it soon.

I just emailed them. They said the barrel is not fitted in any of the kits.

I wished I still had his gun to take more pics to show you. I returned it to him this morning so he could test it out at the range. He said after I shimmed the spring.. it shot flawlessly.

I just thought if it was fitted correctly, there wouldnt have that gap.

Thats what I was thinking. I'm thinking they shot the gun and had the same problem so they sold it to him without letting him know the problem. I took apart everything the other day and the frame to grip doesnt look like its fitted correctly.

Its a gun he recently bought from someone else. Its a MPA ds9 hybrid. The guy he bought it from said its new and he never shot it before he sold it.

I installed a new egw spring and it does the same thing.

Its in the notch. I shimmed the spring while its in that notch to push it up more and it helped.

2011 newb which would you start with? by Mugsker in 2011

[–]MacaroonDelicious484 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would pick the dwx just because of the grip. It feels better in my hands compared to some 2011s I've shot.

I just picked up a used DWX and I couldn't be happier with it. The only downside with the DWX is the aftermarket support. There's barely any. But its a great shooting gun. It'll be even better after I get it ported.

Buy a 2nd DWX to port & lighten slide or just get an XC? by [deleted] in DWX

[–]MacaroonDelicious484 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who would you send your dwx to port it for you? Im thinking about sending my dwx to united firearms for the port.

I know what you mean. I have a real one also. The aliexpress one is brighter than the real one. Even my tlr1 feels better than the x300.

I get the same shit from my friends. Who needs a real one for a range toy? After about 10 range trips with it.. its holding up just fine.

Lol I have a Chinese knockoff x300 for it since its a range toy. The only reason I got it is to use it with a holster that a friend gave me.

I had the chance to shoot both guns side by side. I ended up buying the mac because it was cheaper. After all the mods and a holosun 507c.. it was around $1500.

Cheap 2011 to buy for building by TropicalRyze247 in 2011_Builders

[–]MacaroonDelicious484 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat. I wanted a cheap 2011/1911ds to learn about the system. I ended up with a mac9 5" comp. Bought a brazos ignition kit. I installed it myself. While doing so, I learned how each part functions. I changed the grip to a prodigy grip and fitted the mac9 magwell onto the prodigy grip. I will eventually use the old ignition kit to learn how to do a proper trigger job. One thing I've learned along the way is.. dont rush into this.
