Quick Update... and a shout out to Chris Miller of M&M Outfitters of Lawrence Ks.
I had purchased their Anderson Mfg Upper assembled with BCG and charging handle on GunBroker for $259.95. Apparently, someone goofed up the orders there because what arrived on Fri 01/22 was just the upper only with dust cover and forward assist, but without the BCG and Charging Handle (which they do sell in that configuration). I was able to call Chris, and he had a replacement BCG and charging handle into the post via Priority Mail that afternoon. It arrived this afternoon and all is well. Great company with which to deal. Check them out... https://www.mandmoutfitters.com/

Update: 2nd group of parts "on order" for the 2nd build. Expected Friday. But I still need the FCG, a LPK, Delta ring assembly, flash suppressor and the HG Triangular Cap. All but the FCG are out of stock on Primary Arms, The Geissele Trigger I bought the last time is $165.00 now. Don't know if I want to spend that much for a Geissele but we'll see. I will pick up my P365 on Friday from the FFL. Then we'll see how things go.
I have maybe 1-2 more acquisitions for now, but they aren't for me. One is for my nephew (another Shockwave 590), and another RIA 1911 .45acp for my niece. I'll keep you posted on the new build, as well as the fire testing the 1st build. Thanks!

It was also hard to fit the supplied holster the Tac Pac. I eventually decided to wear it OWB on my Uncle Mike's belt. That, and I took the mag holder I was using with the P320 and tightened it up a tad to get the two extra 12rnd mags to fit snugly. It's f unny. I was watching a YT video where the guy was complaining about how you can actually press the mag release through the holster and it will release. You gotta be real careful when drawing not to hold the holster at that point or it *will* release (I made it happen several times). Not a good thing to lose your loaded mag when drawing. Anyway, the P365 is now my EDC. It fits nicely and I can still draw it and aim quickly. I'll keep you posted on Build #2 and test firing Build #1.

I've had to adjust the holster a little. Tighten it up as it does hold the weapon, but it "rattles" while in the holster. Shouldn't do that. I may end up getting a replacement (and better built) holster. I don't like the IWB mode of it at all and I'm wearing it OWB for now. I just have to draw more carefully as it tends to give way. I think the IWB is a better option but I want one with full loops so it stays put, and it becomes easier to put my pants on with it already on the belt...

I'm generally a Kydex man m'self, but I'll definitely take a look at them. After my "adjusting it," the rattle is no longer noticeable. Still, I think I'm going to look for a better IWB option as I need to be a lot more sure of the ability to draw it from 4:30p position and know with confidence that it will draw.
