    I need to check the FP stop EGW sent me--it was the part number they recommended for flat bottom. Ned, is adjusting point of barrel impact if required as simple as a shorter barrel link, or would I need a pro to weld a shim into the frame?

    Also, really stupid Rookie Level one... when I'm taking material off the FP stop to fit it into the slide and extractor slots, is it better to file/stone across the entire width of the breech-side face, or the back of each side tab, or to try to open up the slots? Granted, this may be cart before horse since my slide won't even be MADE 'til 4th Quarter, but just playing with parts now I can tell the extractor slot and FP-stop tab are too tight to fit together without a little tuning. Then there's the ejector... I'm getting too much conflicting info here, original spec on .45 Super was a longnose more like a Commander and some suppliers are telling me "Government or even shorter."

    This was supposed to be a spare beater that I got cheap. Was having a ton of light primer strikes.
    Started as Colt Competition 9mm
    Had Colt Custom checker front strap strap when it was sent back.
    Still had an occasional light strike after being returned.
    Ok, I wanted a project.

    Harrison Cutom parts:
    HD hard fit firing pin stop
    Slide stop
    Oversized trigger
    DLC coated hammer
    Sear
    Disconnector
    Extended Mag release

    Stan Chen parts:
    Thumb safety
    SI maxwell

    VZ Operator II grips

    First time fitting most of these parts and I'm pleased. Ran 200 rounds through it today. It ran like a sewing machine, not a single hiccup, it just worked.

    Picked this guy up yesterday.



    Planned on holding out for one of their new Parkerized versions, but the price was too good to pass up.
    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.
