One rebuilt by DS ( new oem double springs/spacer, ring, buffer, breach seal)....it shoots 630-640 fps/jsb 8.44... The other rebuilt by himself ( original oem springs/spacer, b...

LP 50 and similiar owners

A few questions: 1) do you have any malfuntions with your pistol...?(does it require adjustment/maintenance..??) 2) what kind of shooting do you use it for..? Competing, plinkink, rapid fire practice.. 3) as compared to a single shot...do you feel its accuracy is different...(shot with the single sh...
