One day I was fooling around with the strain screw and noticed how much better the double action pull was with it backed off a little
Next time I took it out I got regular misfires. I bet the same thing happened to that gun and maybe a lot of cartridges with primers a little harder than standard.
I once bought a few hundred rounds of surplus 9mm ammo. My Nephew and I decided to do a lot of plinking with the cheap stuff. We were shooting a Browning HP and a Beretta model 92, a real early one with the mag release on the bottom left of the grip.
The Browning which had never misfired or jammed, would almost always fail to fire on the first hammer fall but would fire every single time on the second. The Beretta would fire 100% of the time with the first try.
Nothing really wrong with the Browning, just a lot of sub machine gun ammo not really intended for pistols. It did make me like that Beretta tho.
Tell me about how you all carry your hardware. I wear boots, jeans and t-shirts mostly. Hard to hide major caliber pistols. In the winter with flannel shirts and jackets it is not so much of a problem.
What methods and holsters do you all prefer?
Thanks

I have done the same and after 50 rounds or so the strain screw would back out further untill finally there would be a misfire. So I bought a couple of used springs from the local gun smith and using a handheld stone, I weakened the spring over a two inch area. After about three tries I finally got it. This was before Loctite. Now I know how to use Loctite and a trigger pull guage. LOL
