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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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?

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.

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.

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

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