Atlas Tooless Guiderod vs JHP Mega Test- Oh Crap Gun Prodigy Build

1 year ago

The JHP Mega Test was put on hold due to premature lock back of the Atlas Tooless guiderod...and sheep. But no sheep today and I hopefully have the fix from Atlas that corrects the issue. So today we will continue testing to see if all of the fixes and upgrades that I put into the Springfield Prodigy 1911 DS 4.25" to make it my "Oh Crap Gun" was worth it. What makes it worth it? Well, I'm looking to see if it will function with different bullet brands, weights, shapes, sizes, etc. If it will run it all, Great!! If most, I'll take it. The point is that I need to know what it can and can't do.

...and sorry about the stupid auto focus
