This for my PK-380, and some kind of tang sight for my .45LC rifle. TM

Welcome back, how was vacation? TM

Sweet!

Hi Mike, Welcome!! Where in Colorado Springs do live? I like your town. :thumb: TM

This will be a tough series for me. My Giants vs Texas Rangers...... I have actually been to both Candlestick in San Fran, and the Ranger's stadium in Arlington. :beer: TM

You can get them from Colt/Umarex, I think they are about $35, and Able Ammo has them for $30.54. TM

Welcome to the site! I own the Colt, and REALLY like it. :thumb: TM PS, On a good day, I can actually hit what I aim at. Target @ 50yds, BVAC ammo.

:beer: TM

Just got two of THESE from Brownells. Put the first one on my AR in about 7 minutes, very nice! Can't wait to get it out to the range. It really does improve the ergonomics. Going to put the other one on my Colt. TM Well crap -won't fit the Colt without serious modification.

Thanks Bryon - I will give it shot! TM

Excellent work. TM

Welcome! Looking forward to your posts!

Greetings!

Yeah. But the rifle is out of warranty..... :confused:TM

Cops are much smarter than most folk realize... TM

Uh, no. Federal bulk pack mostly. Nothing super hot. The spring is capable of much more than 4 revolutions, and they say I had it too tight. TM

Well, Colt says I had the spring adjusted too tight. (On the original spring). The new spring, (which is a heavier spring per Colt), should be adjusted as follows: With the adjustment screw flush with the surrounding metal, turn it in 4 complete revolutions clockwise. TM

I miss the age of blond jokes. :beer: TM

That would be cool!!! Do you have a link to the carbine?? TM

Don't know if this is "normal" for the Colt/Umarex or not. (14 months and about 3.5K to 4.5K rounds) But the mainspring deformed and wore badly. Started to get some strange functional issues. Paid $12 for new one including shipping. I have never seen a spring deform like this before. :confused: TM

Well, gotta have one. 10-22 Thompson. Looks like a lot-o-fun! TM

Welcome! TM

Very interesting - I will have to look into this - thanks Emmery, and welcome to the place. TM :thumb:

Welcome MSgt! TM

I have been working with Mike Peak of Peak Tactical, and we are trying to get a brake made that threads directly onto the Colt. The prototype that Mike made fits nicely onto my Colt, but changed the point of impact from the OEM comp. I am convinced that this is due to the o-ring grove in the brake. Mike has generously volunteered to make as many brakes as needed to get it right. I will followup as soon as possible. TM :thumb:
