Nucadet, who made that first slide? Looks like it's set up for an rmr/delta point in the correct way, in front of the rear site already. It's mine. It's a factory G19 slide with milling and RMR cut done by my friend Larry at J&L Machining Works out in Idaho. He's also cutting my M&P slide and has done my manufacturer engraving on my lowers. Does great work! |

That's a lot of detail on the slide. I would not have guessed it was once factory.

I finally had a chance to do a function check with five rounds out behind the barn today - flawless!
I had to modify my old USGI surplus mags that I had registered for a future full auto Tommy Gun. To make them work in my pre-ban semiauto, I needed to modify the mag catch hole (instead of buying a Full Auto mag catch which wouldn't let me run my modern 10 round drum mag)

My .408CT does not need one. I don't know the reasoning but rules are the rules and I respect them. But if it was solely/mainly for sound, I can tell you the .408 is LOUD. REALLY FREAKING LOUD. I already sort of changed the caliber v. club steel rule (.300 WM or less now) and had to buy my own steel so I'll just lie low now.

Thanks
The project was over the past two weeks. The big time saver was using an EGW barrel bushing made to my barrel and slide specs. The barrel bushing fit like a glove and rotated in the slide like butter. I have a few small issues to workout. Nothing like building a gun using wilson combat, les baer, nighthawk, EGW, fusion firearms, regent and PSA. Hopefully a range trip and a few hundred rounds will smooth out my issues. This project was quite the learning experience. Both in how to fit one and on manual of arms. Overall I'm proud. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By zegermanznew:
