After uggrading to stronger recoil and firing pin springs, the Witness .40 shot tighter groups, but I still had FTF's. But with one of my new mags, not the old one. I need to take them apart and see if it is shorter like one was in my wife's EAA SAR b6p. Boy, did I ever get some hot Federal 165 grain loads. It was flashing like crazy and made twice the noise of the other ammo. Not sure why, but it shot like plus p. Anyway, I am waiting on my final change for my .40, the more powerful mag springs. I only had ftf problems with the tulammo today on the one mag, but I'll bet it goes away with the new spring. Just my thoughts. I hope it goes away, because otherwise it's a great weapon. The sights are dead on now that I hold the weapon correctly.
7-13-13 Got the new 5% increase mag springs and that was the ticket. It was so great to not have one single FTF, while shooting some consistent groupings that are the best I have ever shot with any handgun. My Smith and Wesson couldn't come close to this. Now I am a rookie with handguns, but not guns in general. I am not as stable, nor can I see as well as in my youth, but with practice, I can see myself reaching out to 25 yards with this weapon and shooting consistent groupings. I can't begin to say how pleased I am with this Witness .40 cal small frame that only cost me $302, adding the spring upgrades, then 330.
