STI Pistol "A Closer Look" (2 of 3)

[JPEBeard]

Hi, Do you have a video on reloading? Like to know what powder, bullets, and primers you use. I will be doing this with 9mm, 40, and 45 acp.

Thanks,

[nictaylor00]

@JPEBeard I did a video on the Dillon 650 and spoke some about reloading for competition. Would you mind emailing me your question on reloading data and I can respond with more specifics than YT will allow in the comment box.

Another great video. Do you know of any good books on the subject of race guns and silhouette shooting.

[nictaylor00]

@knightingalesaid I can't recall any books on the subject. However, you might want to check out the Brian Enos Forum. Brian Enos is one of the founders if you will of modern day IPSC. His forum has tons of info on there, more than I can stand to wade through. I mean you can probably read for days...

[mrhartge]

cool vid NIC...

you shoot standard IPSC?

what type of hammer set are you using?

could you post a vid that show hammer installation?

again cool vid ..

[nictaylor00]

I shoot USPSA Limited with that gun. I think it is not IPSC standard legal but I am not sure. I bought that gun used and have not really done any modifications to it. I'm not sure who's hammer is in it. I suspect it is an STI. You want to see how to intall the hammer into the frame or fitting the hammer? Fitting a hammer and sear is a bit beyond my abilities but installing/assembling one is ok. I did that video on pain killers and was at home sick. I might have the flu right now so maybe soon

[mrhartge]

bummer ... get well soon NIC...

i wanna know how to install the Hammer, Sear & Sear Spring in my eagle without going to the shop ...

its legal if you dont use the Dawson Base plate...cause it wont fit in the IPSC BOX if you use it...

thanks for the reply NIC

@mrhartge Great video . Very informative. ever think about putting tis info on a dvd ? keep up the good work .

[nictaylor00]

@rottenapple4u I had'nt really given too much thought about a DVD. I made this video since I was getting tons of questions about the guns I used. I figured it was easier to make a video than to keep typing up replies. I recently posted some video of AR15Targets 2-gun match and have already fielded a few questions about the rifle I used. I'm thinking of making one and describing the rifle and explaining my choice of accessories. Thanks for the compliment!

Did you disable the grip safety or does it come like that from STI?

[nictaylor00]

I disabled the grip safety. I think there is a liability issue if the manufacturer does it. You can also buy a part that bypasses the Series 80 safety componets. This helps to improve the trigger quality. However, shops that sell that part don;t call it by what it is since you are using it to bypass a safety. I think they call it a series 80 Spacer. I'm Pretty sure that all STI guns are series 70. atleast the competition ones seem to be.

What is the height and width of the dawson precision optic front sight you use on the STI Edge?

[nictaylor00]

measuring from the top of the slide to the top of the rear of the front site is .180. And the width is the .09"

[redpenguin01]

Awesome video.. just bought a 1911 today, gonna use that grip. Thanks.

[nictaylor00]

I may feel wierd at forst but stay with it. You'll be surprised. Which 1911 did you get?

[aznlonewuff]
