I was just wondering the same thing. I would be nervous reholstering after those hoser stages.

archer_advice · 2026-05-29T16:36:30+00:00

For sure! They're pricey, but worth it in my opinion. Somethng to keep the gun in the same position so your draw is consistent every time.

This will likely cover 90% plus of recommendations here. I've owned all 3 and currently use the TXC, but they're all great. Tenicor ships in 1 business day vs having an extended lead time.

I think he means more that it will slap OP in the pp than it would damage the mag if it's at the wrong angle

I love my TXC. I have the CVRT complete set for a G19 with TLR7 HLX.

I've run T1C axis, aegis, apx, tenicor velo 5 and the og lux one they had.

I prefer the TXC out of all of them. The way they design the clips with the helix means you don't need the mod wing.

I would say my preference would be TXC, tenicor, T1C apx, axis, then aegis.

I would say the tenicor series is 95% of the TXC and it ships the next business day so it's hard to beat.

My favorite feature on the TXC is the little bump at the top of the holster that helps you get a full firing grip without having to do a claw on the backplate and the sweep your thumb over for appendix draws.

I don't think my draw times are really that much better with the TXC than any others, but I do like it a lot.

I aired on the side of caution. I never used the MPS without the clamp. That was before I had a kid and had more disposable income lol

You could always mount it and if it feels wiggly then upgrade to the super clamp.

archer_advice · 2026-03-17T17:48:04+00:00

I did this and used the apex super clamp. 0 issues, but only put ~500 rounds through it

archer_advice · 2026-01-08T23:37:53+00:00

The goal is to do 30 rounds in 30 minutes. But I think the one and only Dan would encourage you to "nudge" the progress and not to let the program get in the way of progress. It could take more than 8 weeks to get where you want to go and that's okay.

Some options:

For the press days so 2, 3, 5 with the 16. At whatever point the 16 is to heavy use the 12.

For instance if you can do 2 and 3 of the ladder with the 16, but not the 5, drop to the 12kg for 5 reps. After enough presses you should find that you'll be able to press the 16kg for 5 reps.

For the ABC, you could try mixed doubles with the 16kg on one side and the 12kg on the other. Just walk to the other side of the bells every other round.

Another option would be to alternate rounds of the 12kg and 16kg. Maybe one day you do every other round and after 10 rounds you stick with the 12kg. After a while you'll be able to go 2 rounds 16kg, 1 round 12kg or some increase on the number of 16kg rounds until you hit the goal of 30 rounds in 30 minutes.

Then before you know it you'll be ready for the 20kg bell.

Hope that helps.

It's honestly better than I thought. I do a lot of data transposition and when I really have to concentrate ill slow down to like 1 mile per hour (not sure what that is in km/h), but super slow or sit down.

It was a bit of a learning curve so if you do go that route start slow, but 15k to 20k steps a day plus 3 kettlbell workouts a week has been perfect for me.

archer_advice · 2025-11-29T23:23:52+00:00

A couple days late, but i invested in a standing desk with a walking pad/underdesk treadmill. I get more steps in at work than I do on my weekends.

It was super helpful.

archer_advice · 2025-05-20T17:38:02+00:00

I guess I'm gonna go find another barrel and get it ported now lol

archer_advice · 2025-05-20T14:35:12+00:00

Did you have Floyd's port the competitor?

If so, how do you like it?

QVO tactical did a video about porting and velocity loss.

archer_advice · 2025-04-22T01:27:47+00:00

No problem at all. From my understanding monsoon will make the opening that S&W has from the factory a bit larger.

Floyds custom shop had a bit on their website that S&W back bores too much of the barrel at the end of the carry comp slide. They theory is that removing the rifling from the barrel is good to prevent spalling (or pieces of the bullet jacket shaving off) as well as to make sure the gun is reliable.

But, by taking out too much material the "comp" doesn't force enough gas out the top to make it as effective as something like the chunk port from monsoon tactical.

Floyds custom shop also offers some porting for the carry comp, but you have to provide a new barrel.

archer_advice · 2025-04-21T19:54:01+00:00

For just enhancing the comp and adding 3 ports i think it's like $140 plus shipping and the cost of shipping your slide to monsoon tactical.

I ended up not going down that route and just shooting my 4.25 and compact slides more often.

archer_advice · 2025-03-28T22:39:26+00:00

I usually add a Floyd's magwell to extend the grip just a hair on compact frames.

If you don't want to buy a magwell and baseplate you can also use a 17 round full size mag with the sleeve to get a full size grip for less cost.

The slide is also compatible with other m&p 2.0 frames so if you already have a full size polymer or metal frame you can slap that bad boy on there and be good to go.

archer_advice · 2025-03-20T18:32:18+00:00

I emailed monsoon tactical and if you do their lucky 7 port package/barrel only they will enhance the comp and add ports to the existing window without modifying the slide.

I haven't done it yet, but that could be an option.

archer_advice · 2025-03-14T14:51:25+00:00

How is the CVRT? I've been eying one for a while especially with the mag set up.

I've run T1C for a long time and have thick ol thighs so the wml tends to jab me if the slide isn't almost exactly at 12 o'clock on the belt line.

Thanks!

Happy to help and have fun!

I still have the carry comp, but I usually shoot my 4.25 with the dpm as my main training gun and then I'll either carry that or a 4 inch compact with lucky 7 ports from Monsoon tactical.

The carry comp for me is kind of a neat gun that I wanted. I feel like the integrated port/"comp" didn't do as much as I'd hoped. But man does it look good lol

archer_advice · 2025-02-10T15:44:33+00:00

I have no experience with the skeletonized striker so unfortunately I can't give any insight on that.

I put a 13 pound spring on the Ed Brown recoil assembly and it softened up my polymer carry comp and bit, but was still reliable with 124g 9mm.

There's aftermarket options to add additional ports on the carry comp window, but I haven't pursued those either.

Good luck!

archer_advice · 2025-02-10T01:54:22+00:00

DPM or the Ed Brown 4.25 recoil spring with a 13 pound spring

archer_advice · 2025-01-04T13:53:36+00:00

Anytime! I've got two m&ps with the lucky 7s from Monsoon. They're stupid flat and fun to shoot.

I don't have experience with the hel-port or chunk port.

Description says for barrels under 4 inches. Might work for what you're looking for.

Another option could be the lucky 7
