if u order online, fwiw i went 1911 for the yims and its the most comfy fun i own. pearce rubber grip & whatever plates. 10mm out of full steel body is a snack
No.2609
>>2608what manufacturer did you go with? i looked up 10mm 1911s and the price range is from like $500 on the lower end to almost $2k on the higher end. i'm probably not getting some RIA piece of shit (i have one of their revolvers and it sucks bad, the sights aren't aligned properly at all), but i don't wanna sink too much more than $1k into a pistol either

>>2654>triggereither new spring or assembly. not sure who makes what for em
again just repeating shit i read no personal exp: reset is a lot, spongy wall, and their DA is long. i'm picky af about triggers tho and may not be bad irl
not glock fan either, grip angle makes the sight pic on my natural presentation off. always feel like i'm pointing way off target
No.2657
>>2656oh ok. maybe i just got lucky but i've had zero issues with mine. i'm also not super picky either, as long as it isn't ridiculously light or revolver trigger heavy then i can deal with it. still think it's worth it though it's easily the most comfy gun to shoot that i own

No.2682
got muh hi point 10mm nuclear artillery
fuckin thing is heavy as shit for a handgun, but as a result the recoil is way easy to manage. i only put 50 rounds through it today, a couple didn't cycle properly and i thought it was the gun at first but i looked more closely at the rounds themselves and a couple looked like they had little dents in them near the primer. i did get the cheapest ammo at the store though so i'm not surprised somenof them are faulty. they were tearing some decent chunks out of the stumps i was shooting at though, definitely hits way harder than 9mm that's for damn sure
no regrets for this purchase but i'm still mildly upset i took to long to get that ifg compact
No.2694
fired 100 more rounds through the hi point yesterday and found out it was the magazine causing the feeding issues, just had to bend the feed lips back a little. there were still a few dented rounds that didn't feed properly though so i should probably get a different brand next time if they're letting that shit fly.
any recommendations there?
No.2696
Popped off the 5.7 this weekend. Goddamn that this is fucking badass! It’s the most accurate pistol I’ve ever fired, barely any recoil considering, very nicely balanced. Was having some trouble with the mags on my fal feeding after about 3 full mag dumps. Might just need to oil the bolt better, or the mags might be junk.

No.2702
>>2701nice. i need to get me one of those LBVs at some point so i don't have to stuff my magazines in my cargo pockets and look like a shoplifter when i shoot
btw in regards to the FAL feeding problem i'm not sure exactly how similar a FAL and a PTR are but muh PTR does the same shit sometimes if i've been shooting a lot in one sitting and spraying a little oil into it usually fixes the problem. you using steel or aluminum mags? i have both kinds and i've found the aluminum ones have feeding issues more frequently
No.2703
>>2698the stuff i picked up was s&b. maybe something was up with their equipment and i just got a bad batch, none of the shit exploded the hi point so whatever
i'm definitely gonna pick up some of that liberty shit and play with it at some point tho

No.2705
>>2704nah most of it was just the magazine it worked okay after i corrected that issue save for a couple of particularly defective rounds in that first box. apparently a lot of their mags' feed lips are bent in slightly too far
No.2706
>>2702dont recommend putting oil in your mags in general
getting lubrication on your ammunition may result in excessive load on your locking lugs since you don't get as much friction between the expanded case and chamber wall
i imagine it would be less serious in a roller delayed action like a PTR but you might have excessive extraction speed and parts breakage. not sure if you could blow a case out but the possibility would increase
No.2707
>>2706no i didn't mean oil the mag i meant spray some on the bolt area

as in take the mag out and spray a bit inside the receiver

>>2702>look like a shoplifterlel I feel that feel
>steel or alumsteel, they are all metric, the fal is metric too. idk if the problem is me firing 308 or 7.62 through it. will test that another day
up until now it hadnt been something i had considered No.2712
>>2709unless the springs and followers are shit then then the mags should be ok, steel ones are hard to fuck up unless you're literally throwing them at walls and shit
>308 or 7.62didn't think of that, were you using .308?
No.2713
>>2712I was using both. The most recent times I’ve fired it I’ve had a bit of both, never paid enough attention to which was which though when firing. I will be next time I target shoot though
No.2714
>>2713iirc .308 has higher pressure and there's a very slight size difference. they're still interchangeable obviously since you were shooting bith but FALs were built to use 7.62 NATO. maybe that pressure difference is causing issues?
No.2715
>>2713>>2714the differences are probably similiar to the difference between 556 NATO spec vs .223 REM:
chamber dimension tolerances and case wall thicknesses etc.
on a modern firearm everyone just designs conservatively anyway so it will work fine either way
>FAL issuesDSA is notoriously shitty QC tbh. theres a lot of reasons why things might not be working quite right, all the way up to the receiver being built completely out of spec. sad but true. im still troubleshooting issues with my build on a DSA receiver
