I sent in my P30 light LEM trigger in August and just got it back. First impressions, his work is impeccable : the slide cerakote looks perfect (my slide was beat) the plate appears super stout and my Holosun had to be hard pressed fit into the plate/optic (which takes so much stress off the screws which I really like). He sent screws for both RMR and Holosun with screw bit to fit perfect for screws so you don't strip them (the little things count). The iron sights are tall and visible but not in the way. Very please so far. Just popped on my Holosun.

A few pics for your perusal :

In the age of CHPWS hack jobs, this is so refreshing to see.

Yea, thanks guys. I was bit worried, even when you go with the best, until you get it back...you worry for a minute. The Dot pops right into my window/POA very naturally. Good stuff.

Wish he’d do work on the HK45. I have one that could use trigger work and an optic cut.

I would like to get my HK45 done as well, makes me wonder if there just are not enough people out there to warrent tooling up.

Looks great. Take that out to the ranch and pop some targets at distance.

Why did you choose to mill for a plate and not direct for RMR?

Looks like the slide isn't wide enough for direct mill.

That is how the LTT system works. Like the Beretta, you don't have enough room to go direct and it's a plate system.

I believe some of it also has to do with internals in the slide that would get booogered up if you went direct mill, but I could be wrong.

Looks like it sits well on the gun... fairly low profile.

Rhino, you are correct as I understand it. When I first saw the plate, I was thinking “ how stupid the plates sticks over the edge a c hair” . Then I put the dot on it and the fit was exact. The plate also offers the rear iron, just like Vulcan did on my 1911 mill job.

C-grunt, you bring that million dollar 308 out to the ranch mi amigo!! Yea we will give it a whirl Saturday.
The dot already lined up perfect to irons which made me smile.

Going to be HK day at the ranch. P30, VP9, HK45 ( would love to get a dot on that) and maybe an MP cinco clone.

Very nice PB. My P30 is left wanting now.

Shot this gun today and shot it well. Ran a couple drills after sighting it in. Both Mark and I played with it. Only issue I had is going back and forth from a P30 with LEM light trigger to a Stacatto is not ideal. But once I settled into my P30, it was money.

I took a Dremel to my old holster to make it optics ready, now its carry ready, very cool. Great carry gun now.

That thought goes through my mind every time I look at a new pistol in the gun store. Probably saved me lots of money over the years.

The HK mag release lever gives me nightmares though, I’d hate going to and from that.

Probably very wise. I change guns all the time when I shoot competitions, not ideal but its fun and good training just not optimal to do ones best. A lot of people hate that mag release, never troubled me.

Oh I actually like the mag release, I would just feel the need to only own and train on it. I know I lack the time and ammo budget to master one pistol right now, much less different grips, triggers, and controls.
