Well, I guess you can start from my middle of the road formula. 9mm., Berry 147gr round nose, copper coated bullet, 3.4gr Titegroup, COL 1.150, crimp .378, bullet finished Wt. 210.2gr.. Use SAMMI charts for a place to start. Bullet length determines COL..

Thanks for the info. When I had my Glock, it seems they were replacing springs pretty often. Now, I can relax with the Ruger PCC.

I see sites with the PC carbines springs available. But, I can't find any info on when to replace springs. Which one's to replace and when, or are springs replaced for a reason? I guess I can find how many pounds of retraction of the trigger and bolt I have, but I don't know when it's best...

My LC9s pinches my finger! So I looked at the trigger. The tip of the trigger is what pinches. I got the Dremel out and ground down the trigger. Just the front tip, to make the trigger feel straighter. It seems to help, sitting here at home. Let's see how it goes at the range. If we...

I had some trouble with the bullets shape. It was more round than conical. The bullet hit the hold open detent. It was sticking out to far and catching on the bullet. I'm not sure this is the same problem, but take a look.

I'm not good with pictures. Sorry. But, when you take the mag apart, remove the floor plate. To slide the floor plate off you have to push the the mag insert thru that little hole in the floor plate. What your pushing is the bottom of the mag insert. So, slide the floor plate off and you...

I think I fixed the problems, but wondered if it was just me or did others had the same trouble. The last round in one of my mags would not load. It got stuck and I had to hit the slide to force it to chamber. It seemed the follower was rough and not as smooth as my other mags. I sprayed the...

This is a problem with a lot of pistols. I don't have a large hand and still I get pinched between my finger tip and the trigger guard. The problem could be solved if the manufacturers would open up the trigger guard. Make it bigger!!! Or, make the trigger follow the trail of the guard.

It's happened to me a couple of times. While shooting the slide locks back. I pull the slide back, hit the slide lock, and everything is fine. I think I'm causing the slide to lock back. In my grip, my thumb is just under the slide lock and I think the recoil is causing me to hit the slide...

Well it seems we are finished with weight of pull and are into grip. I can't resist putting my 2 cents in..... if you are a right hand shooter and use both hands on the gun.... grip the gun with 70% of pressure in your left hand and 30% in your right. It seems to free the trigger finger so...

I love the CL9s's size for carry and it's smooth trigger. But I prefer about an 8# trigger pull. I have it in a couple of my guns. I have seen too many accidental discharges with light trigger pulls, myself included. Great for target shooting but for self defense I prefer a heavier pull. I...

Has anyone seen a replacement trigger spring for the LC9s pistols? The trigger pull is smooth, but lighter than I like. With my Glocks I can choose a whole array of parts to change the trigger pull, but not that often with other brands. Different strokes for different folks.+

I have both and the trigger pressure is about the same on both, BUT, the LCP has a longer pull.

Let's try this again. I said it was a joke. I said I have a LCP. The pull on the LCP is the same weight as the LCP II, only the length of travel is much longer in the LCP. I have had rounds go off before I was expecting them to. I guess I'm the only person on earth that has happened too. I...

It's a spring that causes the trigger to be an 8# trigger. It's actually a joke. I mean it works, but I don't think it will last long. Just glued on. But, that 8# pull feels a lot safer on a SA trigger. MY LCP has a 5# trigger, but the travel distance is pretty long. The LCP II has the...
