I have had an Advantage Arms Target Model on a dedicated RIA frame now since November of 2006 and have had fantastic results with it. I have not had any problems at all with the kit. The Advantage Arms kits also offer the last shot hold open feature. I know, I have a grip screw missing!!

FINALLY UNDENIABLE TRUTH THAT JOHN HAS A SQREW MISSING!!!!

I'm almost ready to pull the trigger on a slide refinish and Heinie Straight 8 sight replacement to complete this budget training tool. It will be my range practice go to.

That's probably my next project as well, getting a matching set of sights.

I have a Ruger 10/22 faux M1 carbine idea that's trying hard to take priority though...

Jason, that's what ive done using my 22 conv. Plus doing single hand weak cross draw then single hand strong. That has helped me with weak hand shooting and then switch over to 45

Yep. I honestly have always dropped the ball when it comes to weak hand shooting and drills. I recently had a momentary lapse in common sense and accidentally cut my weak hand thumb with a hobby chisel. Cut both extensor tendons, and had to have surgery to put them back together. That made me realize how quickly a hand can be put out of commission in a SD scenario if a gun or knife is involved. All of your extensor tendons are skin deep and on top of bone, which will act like a nice anvil if they get smashed or slashed. The surgery went fine, and I have about 95% of my range of motion back, and it's getting better every day, but I will be practicing shooting and malf clearing one handed, and with both weak and strong side from now on.
