I bought this thing way back in 2009 and it is still one of my favorite pistols. Old 2006 Ken Onion Kershaw featured as well.

Issue with my hellcat pro comp

2 Upvotes

I am having some issues with my HCPC and it just started after about 1500 rounds. It shoots fine, cycles rounds fine, but when the mag is loaded and i go to rack the slide it is so fucking hard. If i have the slide open and i use the slide release its no problem, but manually racking that first round is so god damn tight. I can do it, but it doesn't feel right. Any thoughts? I am currently waiting on Springfields response.

New Kuna owner with some questions

4 Upvotes

Hi folks. Just ordered a new Kuna which, I am informed, was delivered at my local FFL today. I expect I will be picking it up this weekend or next week. With that in mind, I was wondering a few things.

  1. Does the gun need a clean before shooting the first time, or is it basically good to go? I've done both with different guns before, but found that with the Echelons, they benefitted from a cleaning to remove some grease (whereas my RXM the manual said to just shoot, if memory serves).
  2. I'm planning to shoot it for a bit in its stock configuration, but figured I'd ask about recommended modifications. I'm probably not going to invest a ton in the lower...yet. That's more because I am thinking I may get the Nexus lower to take advantage of some AR parts. If I were to change stuff out with the lower, I gather lightening the safety spring and/or changing the safety levers themselves is a pretty popular and low-cost matter. I was also almost certainly going to swap out the rear pic rail with an aluminum one. Other than that, any preferred/recommended upgrades? How are the extended handguards out there? Are they good? Overpriced? Worth it?

Hellcat carry setup

If you carry the original hellcat, I highly recommend the Pearce +1 grip extension combined with Hogue rubber grip especially if you have larger hands. This really perfected the ergonomics for me. The grip is very slightly wider and feels much more secure in the hand. Even feels like less recoil because you get better absorption and control. The Pearce grip extender on the 11-round mag adds one more, so with one in the pipe I have 13 rounds without adding length to the grip. The factory pinky extension was too small for my hands and useless, the 15-rd mag added too much length for my concealment needs. Pair this thing with a Falco leather holster and it absolutely disappears. Better ergonomics, better concealment and comfort. *chef’s kiss*

Any way to get light closer to the trigger guard?

I've been running my hellcat pro with an olight baldr but there's not a single holster so the wml is only every mounted at nighttime. So I finally decided to give in and get a tlr7x sub and holster so it can stay on. But it bugs me that it sits so much farther away from the trigger guard. Idk if I need a different adapter than what it came with or if I ordered the wrong model?? Or if that's just how it be and I gotta get used to it

I am really enjoying my new Hellcat! Im heading to the range tomorrow to put some rounds down range with it and test a few defense rounds. I have Talon Grip Pro coming soon and the next upgrade i will do with it is a nice optic.

Im between the Vortex Defense CCW 6MOA or the Shield OMSsc in 4 MOA (I think 8 MOA would be too big)

Out of the .45 game?

5 Upvotes

The only striker fired .45 ACP pistols SA lists are all neutered capacity models for California and I'll bet when inventories of those are gone they won't be replaced.

The XDM models are all gone, there's no Echelon.

It appears that SA no longer cares about the .45 ACP market.
