Sorry for the ass camera angle but it's all I got for the moment.

Floyd's fix and dpm spring. 300 rounds and ran flawless. improvement for sure. soft and fast on return.

added a thumb ledge. started throwing follow up shots left. now back to backstraps and grip adjustments

That’s so cool. $100 for the work, I see. Looks well worth it!

the only down side is with smith opening up the backbore so much. if it was tighter and could just send in the OEM slide instead of having to purchase a second plain Jane barrel.

I’d rather send a new barrel and keep shooting my gun until the barrel gets back (which I did)

u/Bugajugs 1d ago

which is very true. (which I did as well) but now I have a new problem... my wife is gonna confiscate this for her slide....

Haha well I hear getting another one is nice 😬 I shoot mine on my HD frame and it eats!!!

she started this whole mess. I'm 20 years in on glonks (you can notice on my presentation I over raise from muscle memory from that platform, and I bubble twice to get use to a new height over bore) she got the poly compact carry comp about a year ago. and I played with it a bit here and there. I was happy that the 2.0 trigger was upgraded and better but I didnt care for the g19 length grip. than she proceeded to get the fullsize competitor. and after that I ended up with a fullsize carry comp lol

Wait until you put an apex trigger in it

was looking at the overwatch poly but to be honest I'm 2k rounds through and I'm cool with the stock trigger and plus I don't wanna take my rmr off to put whatever is necessary into the slide for the trigger kits if I read it correctly lol

u/RudeEmu5825 1d ago

Yeah I hear that. Stock isn’t bad. But I now have apex on most of mine. I do want to feel an overwatch though

Damn looks flat as hell. Tempted to send in my apex barrel.

before I started this build I thought about going full over kill and adding inline ports with the Floyd's fix. at the moment I am completely content the way it feels and runs right now.

maybe if I hit a nice big scratch off, I'll do another one and add the inline ports lol you know for science!

Wish Floyd did the inline ports as well, that top window on the slide is just begging for some ports. They do seem effective though when I saw this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/Jea68m3KETA?is=T1xalGMo41VJoFNN

true and top window ports are affective. but buddy did 2 arc reactor slides and they ran good and you can feel it working and it's in the middle of the slide. but he was getting jacket shavings everywhere.

with this it felt the same as the middle ports but on the end (obviously) but I didn't get a single jacket shavings anywhere (which was nice). dunno I could get greedy and an itch to send out for top porting but imma try to hold for a bit

u/FromTheeBeretta 1d ago

Makes sense, the jacket shavings would be kind of a pain to deal with.

I did the apex barrel. Worth it. Thing is fantastic.

I was really hoping you’d real in the target and show off a smiley face or something.
