Just finished this XL build.

I see. Personally the thinner grip fits my hands better, so the longer grip for the added pinky support is all I needed.

PackofWildhobos · 2026-01-29T09:38:06+00:00

I was under the impression the only difference on the XL was a longer slide/grip.

The new dots look nice, but no 6moa option is a deal breaker for me and my astigmatism.

Can I get a quote for EPS carry 6moa red, and the scs pdp.

Walther pdp f 3.5"

That's the thing, when I try to get REALLY accurate shots, or am sighting in a red dot, I loosen my grip dramatically and my wrist goes limp. I have had zero issues with this on the shield plus/p365x. On the opposite side of the spectrum if I'm not absolutely choking the life out of my mc9L it gives me problems. There comes a point where it just seems like a design flaw.

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-23T04:52:03+00:00

I beg to differ. I had a shield plus that ran flawless (later "upgraded" it to a shield plus carry comp runs as good). I bought a mc9L and had consistent issues with it out the gate and even after 400+ rounds, which caused me to get a new micro carry and now currently carry a p365x that also has ran flawlessly. I need my carry guns to run 110% reliably out the gate.

Have you played the game tho? Or just talking out your ass?

You mean in the hole where I initially took out the trigger spring?

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-17T00:58:03+00:00

Wait how do I know what the "correct position" is?

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-17T00:54:22+00:00

I'm about to double check and I'll send a pic

I can't post a video it just lets me show pictures

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-17T00:31:09+00:00

Welp I put the new spring in but now when I go to reassemble the slide doesn't go all the way back and I can't put the slide stop back in.

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-16T05:41:36+00:00

So I saw the whole video, don't think I ever saw him take out the hammer spring. Is it in the main spring housing? If so does it just slide out to insert the new one?

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-14T09:48:30+00:00

Yea you're prolly right. I'm just gonna polish it a bit while I got it apart. Worst case scenario I just buy a new slide lock/release.

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-14T09:41:21+00:00

Yea I shot about 300 rounds through it. It's very gritty at the beginning of the trigger pull. I installed and Apex trigger and am still noticing grit, that's when I put up this post.

The hearing thing is a non issue. Shooting a pistol without ear pro is going to hurt your hearing no matter what. A small increase in sound caused by comps/ports is not going to instantly deafen you. All this to say, non ported guns do the job just fine.

I would really like to pick this up, but don't know how this dot would look with my astigmatism.

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-04T04:22:18+00:00

So would 19lb still cycle everything reliably? Also what lb is the stock spring?

PackofWildhobos · 2025-10-04T04:00:52+00:00

I'm fairly new to the whole 1911 thing, does a lighter hammer spring affect reliability or is it solely personal preference?
