Tried out my new KKM barrel and comp today. Had issues feeding/chambering and slide failed to lock often. Was shooting 115grn Winchester. What readily available, hotter loaded target ammo do you comp guys run? Or does everybody just swap to a lighter recoil spring?

GuestJuly 7, 2020 at 11:24 pmI use Winchester White Box NATO 124 Grain. It is closer to +P pressures and has proven for me to be of consistent quality and cycles reliably. I try to stockpile it when it is available at a decent price. These days it is closer to 30c a round. hopefully this will go back down a bit. I get better performance all around with the NATO ammo, less sloppy ejection on my Glocks and my CZ spits the casings like 20′ away.

GuestJuly 7, 2020 at 11:24 pmLighter recoil spring would help. That comp will bring so much of that pressure down, so recoil spring or stick to 124gr

GuestJuly 7, 2020 at 11:24 pmIf I am not loading my own I run S&B 124. It is still available and decent priced.

GuestJuly 7, 2020 at 11:24 pmUse either 124 (+p ideal) or use a stainless steel guide rod with 13-15 lb springs. You’ll have to experiment. I had to buy 3 different ones. The uncaptured ended up working but I almost chunked it in the creek behind my house before finally getting it in. I was curious on the KKM bc I have tried 5 others. Some you don’t need to change shit, some it’s an utter pain in the ass. If I could walk outside and shoot off my deck I wouldn’t care but going to a range and effing with it sucks donkey balls. For a little more and a lot smaller the Mayhem Syndicate works fine with OEM. So does legion precision comps. I got the shorty and have a buddy with the regular one. THey run like a top. Obviously this won’t help you now but future reference you can use those on any double stack Glock with whatever threaded barrel you want. 2/28 threading anyway. (Except MS THEY ARE PROPRIETARY AS I BELIEVE THE KKM System is. So it cost almost a g43 for the set.
Texas black rifle no change – pretty much extinct
Legion precision – good to goMayhem syndicate- my fav
Arc division Sparc and Sparc v2 – works awesome with right ammo / springs only ( for me ) all guns (esp glocks ) have different tolerances which makes it a crapshoot.
Agency arms – has to f with it.
Griffin mini comp – yes it works. Just not mind blowing like some of the others. Only $60 too.
Suarez g43 and mini (similar time griffin and only $25) get here this week (I hope).
