Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
You raise excellent and very valid points. The best argument for the type of pistol for bullseye competition has become, and will likely remain, the 1911 frame. With a 1911 22 conversion for the Rimfire aggregate and the .45 for both the centerfire and 45 aggregates, the competitor has essentially t...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
It would be great IF Nelson figures it all out and ultimately produces a 1911 32 ACP conversion. It would require a different magazine like some of those for the other 1911 variations such as the 9mm/38 Super. Don't know about the 38 Special version. Never had or seen one. Have read that there were ...

Re: IZH-35M recoil spring
IF the AW93 spring would work, it would be the earlier model spring - before serial number 20000. I don't think the later model spring (after serial number 20000) comes separately but is rather fixed to the rod. Best to check with Pilkguns to see if they have them and if the early model spring will...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
I suppose if there was a chart that listed felt recoil of all calibers in all pistols that included all possible variations (grip types, compensators, loads, competitor body mass, etc.), then 38 Super would probably be listed as having more felt recoil than the 32 ACP. How much more? Certainly not s...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
"What I'd like to see is someone build a .32acp blowback conversion for a 1911...sort of like a Nelson or Marvel conversion. The magazines could be based on Nighthawk Custom's .30 super carry mags (hopefully someone starts copying them, since Nighthawk wants a ton of money for them)." Perh...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
Bad day at the range. Ransom Rest insert caused problems with feeding and pistol kept doubling. Everything worked great last week with the same ammo. ??? Chrono shot craps. Ordered a new one and will go with the old Hoppe's pistol rest (model 3000?). Will try again Saturday.

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
Now have a MatchGuns MG-4 insert for my Ransom Rest. The weather this week looks great. Starting tomorrow, I will begin testing. The MG-4, initially a 32 S&W L, has an ACP conversion system (Shilen 0.311 barrel and different extractor) designed and built by Jon Eulette. I have several loads that...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
Thanks for the clarification of your earlier post with specifics. Obviously, the T&B 64 SWC is working well for you. Good luck with the conversion.

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
I'm still using mine. It's a SWLWC frame with an ACP top end. I bought it that way, used, from the original owner. It's biggest problem is the magazine falling out in the middle of a string (seriously!). I need to get a new Rink grip for it, then I'll be using it again. Having thought about these r...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
Very interesting, indeed. What kind of shooting do you participate? If bullseye, I imagine that it would be a real problem during sustained courses of fire. You would run out of refire opportunities real quick. If not bullseye, I guess it wouldn't really matter. What kind of pistol is it? Is the mag...

Re: 32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
Thanks for the response. Assuming from it that you have a Pardini HP. Was it obtained as an ACP or was it converted from a S&WL? I wonder if there are other pistols that were ACP or have been converted from S&WL to ACP. The Matchguns MG4 is one other available. About 20 years ago, David Sams...

32 ACP - "Flash in the Pan"?
Several years ago, there were numerous posts regarding the 32 ACP in the Pardini HP. That seems to have stopped. Why? Did folks find the perfect load for the 32 ACP in the Pardini HP and quit posting/discussing as a result? Or was it a effort in futility trying to replace the 45 in bullseye centerfi...

Re: Caring for an MG2E
You don't mention where you are located or where you purchased your MG2E. If you are in the U.S., then you should contact the U.S. importer, Kangbin Chua, who is located in the LA, CA area. (MatchgunsUSA@hotmail.com). He has been extremely helpful with anything and everything regarding my MG2 EVO Ra...

Re: Customized Steyr LP10/EVO10 Trigger
Got one of these. Really like it. Simple like the Morini in that the only trigger adjustments are length-of-pull and angle. Does not pivot like the Steyr. I find the original Steyr trigger offers too many adjustments which tend to get me into trouble always wanting to adjust it. Received it quick - ...

Re: .22 Ammo For Free Pistols That Won't Stick in Chamber?
Have a Hammerli 150. Norma Tac and Federal 711B insert and eject perfectly. CCI is normally trouble-free. The Norma is readily available at a decent price. 711B isn't or is still too expensive for me. An interesting point with Norma Tac is that it works perfectly in my Kart 1911 22 Conversion, MG-2 ...
