    Max 9 question

    Well… range time went OK. Still low left about 60% of the time but only by about 3 inches at that worst. That is all me as I have a recoil flinch with this gun. Had a similar problem with a P365 I owned. I shot my 3” EMP 9mm and no flinch…weird. Just need to practice more. I did get better as I...

    Max 9 question

    Last mod done… Friday I will test out the new trigger and just installed Dot. The Dot is the Ruger ReadyDot. No windage or elevation adjustments and no battery. Made specifically for the Max 9 to co-witness with the fixed sites. From Ruger : “The fiber illuminated reticle adjusts to varying...

    Max 9 question

    I think you will be fine. As far as I can tell it did nothing for the pressure needed to fire the gun. All you replace is the trigger itself. It does eliminate a good amount of the take up but it didn’t affect the pressure needed to fire the gun and the reset seemed the same to me. I am just not...

    Max 9 question

    Trigger came in the mail today. Install was pretty simple. Took me about 35 minutes and the GP video was very helpful. Only issue was the thumb safety spring popping off. Took a few tries but I got it back in place. If dry fire is any indication, it is a major improvement over the curved...

    NJ? Get a Rope! I was created in Albuquerque, NM but for the last 30 years, Texas has been my home. If you google Cowtown, you will find that Fort Worth comes up. “Wasn’t born in Texas but got here as fast as I could”. I get uneasy anywhere North of the Red River 🤠

    Max 9 question

    sage advive, thank you. Im am not a gunsmith by any stretch and have not slept at a holiday inn. I believe I am mechanically inclined enough to get it done…. We will see? I replaced the trigger and springs on an XDM a couple years ago. It took 3 attempts to get everything working correctly. The...

    Max 9 question

    Well that is encouraging. I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Trigger should be here in the next day or so. Once I get it installed and have a chance to shoot it, I will leave an update with my results.

    Max 9 question

    I am considering installing the flat trigger from Galloway Precision. I was wondering if anyone here has done that and how you feel about it from a shooting perspective? I have always struggled with curved triggers, add to that shooting a Micro with fairly large hands doesn’t seem to be a plus...

    .44 mag ammo for Whitetail

    Don’t hunt dear but do hunt feral hogs with my Henry Big Boy in 44mag. it has yet to fail knocking down the porker. They stay down. Not all we’re killed with the one shot but they weren’t going anywhere. I dispatch them with my .45 if they are suffering. All have been sows. The smallest around...
