Tisas Raider build*
Tisas Raider .45 ACP. Shout-out to the person who told me Aluma-Hyde II in Magpul FDE was a color match - it is!
*The build (not just a flashlight and optic):
Pachmayr wrap around grip.
Tisas arched mainspring housing painted to match, drop in fit.
Ed Brown extended magazine release, stainless steel, painted to match.
Harbor Freight WML Gen 2? (no silver stripe but not knurled or ribbed) painted to match. Upgraded with Emissary Development paddle shifter.
Wolff spring kit part #GM-453
I need to hit the mainspring housing with another coat of Aluma-Hyde. I baked it and let it cure so hopefully no durability issues but using a can after the first time is a PIA. I was delayed waiting for replacement spray nozzles to come back in stock.
With the Pachmayrs installed the safety feels a bit undersized. I might revisit the safety.
I haven't done a full spring kit in any of my Tisas' yet. Holy cow the difference between the factory plunger tube spring and the Wolff replacement! The trigger on the pistol was ~awesome~ out of the box. I was hesitant to swap the sear spring. The factory sear spring is much thinner compared to a Wolff or an Ed Brown so I swapped and tuned it and got it pretty close to the original feel.
I was interested in MUESOC vibes when I stumbled on a deal on the Raider. I guess I'll have to make-due with 1945A1 vibes, lol
