I've been wanting to install a Majestic Arms Speed Strip Kit on my MkIII Hunter for a while now. I recently found out that Loaded Chamber Indicator (LCI) slot fillers were available also. I removed the LCI years ago because it caused extraction problems. I figured if I'm going to upgrade the gun I would pick up a LCI filler too.

I also picked up some Pachmayr G10 grip panels. I do prefer the look of the wood grip panels. These are much more durable and I won't worry about scratching them.

Here's the gun prior to the upgrades.



Here's the gun with the LCI filler and G10 grip panels installed.



The Tandemkross LCI filler fits well and looks much better.



The speed strip kit uses a two piece bolt stop pin. I installed the 3.2 kit which also eliminates the magazine disconnect feature (that and the LCI are both "lawyer features" the gun is better off without). Now, instead of having to remove the mainspring housing in the back of the grip to strip the gun, I only have to remove the bolt stop pin with an Allen wrench. It also reduces trigger pre-travel by 65%.
