Transparent front sights

Hi all,
has anybody tried out a transparent colored front sight yet? I saw them being offered in red, yellow and green. I am curious about your experiences, if any.

Those are quite insteresting ideas, particularly a random pull weight with each shot. However this could only be implemented over mechanical devices, not just a manipulation of the electric circuit. The delay timer was only a mind game from begin with, of course we did not intend to actually impleme...

Delay timer for electronic triggers

Hi all, while joking with a guy the other day I came up with the idea of a delay timer for his electronic trigger, with a configurable delay (e.g. 3 seconds). You could pull the trigger while at the 12 o clock hold, then lower the pistol into the target area and the shot release would be perfectly s...

Kevin,
thanks for that link! I saw that Steyr uploaded many helpful videos which are well worth watching.

Concerning the original post, there is also a short video on replacing the O-rings

Thanks for the hints. Davids interpretation was my hope too, with M-Large or S-Large fitting a standard or slightly narrow hand while being longer (more grip volume) than a standard medium grip of Steyr.

Has anyone tried their fully custom grips yet that utilize the hand print box?

Männel grips sizing question

Hi all, what are your experiences concerning Männel grips? I am looking for an alternative to the standard grip for my Steyr LP2. I did some comparing with other grips and found that the standard size M is really quite fine concering the width of my hand, but offers to little volume (evidently I hav...

Hi all,
judging from pictures the old LP10 compensator cone is similar to that of the LP2. Do you think it is possible to mount the new cone to an LP2?

And before you ask.. yes, its for the looks and for the feeling of being able to shoot better after buying some new piece of equipment.. : )

Having held this pistol in hands, may I ask you what you think the function of the carbon liner is (on the lighter version)? I was wondering why thy did not fasten the front sight directly to the barrel as on the Steyr LP2. Is this only for looks (carbon sounds fancy too) or does it serve a purpose?

Just to tell the final result, the trigger stop was not the problem in this case (but thanks for the hint), adjusting the sear slightly did the trick. Thanks, all!

Is it OK to tingle with the sear engagement? I do know about mechanics but I am no gunsmith, so basically all I can do is change it bit by bit and check what happens. Would it be OK to proceed like that? In the manual it says that it should not be altered, so I had trusted it to be OK. @scerir Do yo...

Steyr LP2 - adjusting the second stage trigger pull

Hi all, I prefer a rather crisp first stage of around 320-350 gram which means that I need to reduce the second stage pull in order to reach a total trigger pull not too far beyond 500 gram. The problem with my LP2 is that I cannot turn the screw for the second trigger stage out any further. This le...
