How much difference to those ports make on your Witness?

Witness Elite Match:


And a compact:



Typically, I keep the compact slide/barrel on the Match frame.  I like the fullsize, SA frame & the 15 rnds with a shorter slide for carry.  This is my hiking/backpacking gun:

Houlster, how is the compact reliability wise?

Out of the box, I had a series of jams where the front of the cartridge case would catch on the top edge of the barrel as it was entering the chamber.  The edge had a very sharp corner.  (Which frame it was on didn't matter)  On my Match, the inside edges of the chamber opening are very slightly radiused.  I filed a small radius into the top edge on the compact's barrel the same way and it's been 100% since then. 

I haven't shot it a ton, but it's been good since this change.  Probably 400 - 500 rnds total.  I've also had very good luck with my 7 or 8 magazines.  I had to sand down the base plate on a few of the 15 rnd replacement mags to seat fully in the Match, but have never had a magazine or other problem besides the above.

Thanks for that information.  A compact has long been on my list, but never made it to the top at the right time.

I had to sand down my mags as well to get them to fit my Match.

Yondering is that the first Match you have seen?

Mine has the rail


The older models like pictured don't and look a little better.

Yondering

Nope not the first I've seen. I like his pictures though.

Feel free to post more pics of this one!

Pretty much a standard Elite Match other than a Wolf recoil spring.  Thinkin of new sights and some other goodies from Hennings...
