Great... I'm glad I wasted money on a second mag..

Alright, well I'll start looking now for replacements.

Maybe, Sunday would be my only day I would be able to get to the range though...

Where do you shoot? I dont want to have to drive far, and could always guest you at my range..

http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1.../all_laugh.gif No seriously though sell them or just throw them away. Both of my UCII's despised the factory mags and I've read countless other posts about people having issues feeding with theirs. Always boiled down to the factory mags sucking at life. I've never had an issue with my Wilson's or Chip McCormick's. :mrgreen:

Yay for presents waiting for me when I get home from 12 hours at work.

Yay for finally having a good IWB holster again!!!
http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...-15-31_663.jpg

Yay for fitting like a glove!!!

They throw a roll in with every order. I got some with each separate order for my belt, holster, extra kydex body for my Sig, and even once when I just ordered extra belt clips and hardware. It's not a big money thing, but it's a cool little signature of theirs.


So are you guys shooting this weekend? I'd like to make it out for a while but I won't be able to spend a lot of cash on ammo. I have a few boxes left, but not a lot. I'm headed to Vegas for SEMA on Tuesday... and that's going to absorb a lot of funds. lol

~Brian~ 10-29-2011 01:51 PM

I think so.. I've been talking to Andy and Steve, so hopefully we will be able to get something going.

looks good. I always keep the light on the other side so I can turn it on with my thumb that would normally be on the fore grip hand, much easier and the momentary on is easier to use than having to take your hand off the fore grip to turn the light on. Just think, if it were on the other side you can just move your thumb an inch to turn the light on rather than move your entire hand off the fore grip to hit the button, unless your a lefty then it makes total sense

I was going to run it on the other side and i still might, it doesnt work well with my normal grip i would want to take on the vertical grip and rail, rather if i grip it normal my thumb goes right up to it and click it on...

I normally would want to grip it and ride my thumb along the side of the rail, but have to take a regular grip for the thumb to be right on the light

Reason I choose that side is the magnifier flips to the left and wanted to balance some of the weight putting the light on the right side..

Well see how it works out..

Thank you Dave!

Yeah it's my Kimber. My buddy Adrian did away with the ambi safety and installed this one from Wilson. I like it more because it's got more meat on it for my big thumbs to grab onto. :mrgreen:

^^^What him said. I got a roll for the holster and a roll for the spare hardware kit I ordered just in case I lose a screw like I did with my OWB one I have from them. :bigeek:
