Plastic peanut jars work well for me. Just like akblux uses.

My P85 got the safety upgrad years ago and it did get the MKII stamp on the right side safety. It's one of my favorite pistol, just wish it had a better trigger.

Depending what your plans are for the pistol if you are going to just shoot it for target shooting I recommend the Volquartsen trigger kit upgrade. I did the kits to both if my MKIV's. It shortened the length of pull and dropped the pull down to about 2 to 2.5lb. I also recommend breaking it in...

I have 2 MKIV's and have very little trouble with FTF or FTE. I do shoot CCI Mini Mags and Blazer high velocity. I have also found that light oil on the bolt helps. Usually when the bolt is getting dry is when I will have feed issues.
