Hi Ronny,

 

Are Tula primers any good? Never heard of them before. I got to put an order in with Powder Valley this month. If you need to order some stuff let me know, we can split the hazmat and shipping.

Hot deal, free shipping. Too bad the primers are junk in most glocks. The firing pin has to hit harder in order to ignite them. Did not have any issues with them in my 1911 or most other 9mm's I have shot. I had one or two issues out of a batch through the Hk P30l. (this was small pistol primers). Did not have any issues with Large pistol primers through the Jericho/Baby Eagle or Hk45.

 

Keep in mind, Tula is Wolf. Wolf lost the import license so they are rebranded as Tula.

Maks- So in your opinion the 2k Wolf primers I have are dicey in my G34 w/ a light striker spring?

Frank,

 

The Tula primers work fine in my G34. I have the 3.5 connector with the extra power striker spring @6lb (stock is 5.5lb, and the reduced is 4lb).

Paul,

I would stay away from it for your "worked" guns. I have had nothing but problems with it in my G17. That being said you might not encounter any problems in 1911/2011 based guns. I know that PV has Winchester primers I got a case just recently. I have a few hundred loaded production 9mm loads with them if you want to try them out. Let me know.

You might encounter some problems with a light spring. I am still having some light strikes even with a glockworx striker. (It is slightly longer than stock)

Chris- Does that striker spring make the trigger noticably heavier before it breaks?

I don't think so. To me it feels like a lighter version of the NY1 trigger now. It definitely makes a nicer indent in primers though.

 

I have been bringing my disassembly tool and a few springs and connectors with me to Shore Shot to test various configurations in the same outing, for a good apples-to-apples comparison.

So far this heavy striker spring, heavy trigger reset spring, light plunger safety spring is my favorite. I haven't decided whether I like the 3.5 or 5lb connector better though. I am still running a stock safety plunger and striker. One of these days I'd like to try the mechanism with the trigger stop screw.
