I replaced the dual recoil spring and plastic guide rod with a stainless guide rod, and 20 lb spring, along with a EGW flat bottom firing pin stop. Gun runs great.
My bad, I meant frames cracking. Not an uncommon accusation although I don't know how much validity there is to it. No problem with the one I had but as I say, I read about it at the time and got rid of it. Should have hung on to it and took my chances.Can you repeat what you know about "the slide cracking issue"; never heard that one.
The new Colt 10mm models may have improved engineering & safer designs.
Well this gun is a new production run. i felt that 855otd was good deal from what i have seen around the internet. But wast sure if the 10mm was going to have downfalls even being a Colt.
Then im glad i already bought it haha
If I remember correctly the FBI issued S&W semi autos to their agents. The poor performance was an inability for many of the agents to handle the recoil from what I read. Long time ago and I may be wrong.Didn't the FBI issue them to their agents & then remove them from service due to poor performance? I think that a majority couldn't qualify with them?
