I think I misread his post. It appears to be a statement and not a question. -
Same reason, chicken coops only have two doors because if they had four doors, they'd be chicken sedans I always called a crotch rocket a sports bike

"Hey, if Staccato can get that much, we should be able to as well. Never mind this is our first 2011 and we can't even make our striker fired flagship pistol safe."

I've had one since they came out. I admit it hasn't gotten a lot of use, and most of what I've fired through it has been 9mm. Be advised it isn't exactly a 2011, it's more of a Para Ordnance clone that uses Para pattern 38 Super magazines and parts. It's also a heavy bugger. Mine has run without any issues. The only TCM ammo I've used has been Armscor branded and it's still around and not too expensive. 22 TCM doesn't make a whole lot of sense IMO but it's pleasant to shoot as long as your ear protection is good.

I have a few centerfire pistols with mounted RDS, looks like 8 currently according to this photo. For the most part I don't send guns out to be machined; I tend to buy them factory cut because I don't like the idea of sinking a lot of additional money into what is basically a commodity item. The exception is the CZ P-07 which went to Jaegerwerks who did a fine job. When it comes to electronics, I've learned to be a late adopter because something better and/or cheaper is always just around the next corner. I've tried several RDS brands and settled on Holosun for the best combination of value and features that I want. The Trijicons are reputedly tougher, and made in USA, but I don't really care for them too much. The RMR type 2 window is too deeply tinted and small, though it does sit a bit lower than the Holosuns. The new RMR HD is much better, as is the SRO, but I don't feel a need to spend the money at this point. I'm using the Vortex Defender CCW on the Tisas because the window is larger than the micro-Holosuns, and so far I'm pleased with it. I like the Agency AOS optic cut on 1911s because it is widely adaptable to guns that have already been milled for low mount sights such as Novak, and offers an integral backup rear sight. It's also relatively easy to machine without a CNC mill, which is attractive for me. I am considering going back to some of my favorite 2011s and 1911s and cutting them for the AOS plate myself. Springfield sells the Prodigy with this setup, but their screws are too short and too small for the job they're asked to do. I've dealt with several Prodigy setups where the sight and plate have let go due to insufficient fastener penetration into the slide. Mainly I deal with it by fitting longer 6-48 screws to get more than 3 threads into the slide. Unfortunately using screws that are too small, and not milling a tight pocket to reduce strain on the screws are still somewhat common issues among pistol manufacturers. CZ and Canik both use M3-0.50 screws and I have had to extract multiple broken screws out of these slides. There's usually no reason they can't be tapped for 8-40 or something similar, and that's what I like to do.

Hello all, I moved here recently from Georgia. We had an excellent community of gun owners at Georgia Outdoor News. I was hoping (and glad to find) that Tennessee has a similar community of like-minded enthusiasts.
