SA hasn't even announced an XD-M in .45acp yet.

MikeS.

I was able to buy pistol primers by the thousand again this week. I also was able to buy xtp bullets in 44, 45 and 10mm today. Along with W231 & 296. No 2400 or Bullseye. They even had a few cans of Varget. I've heard it is really hard to get. More ammo has come in but still no .380. Not that I ...

MikeS.

Go for the XD. 13+1 and you can get after market mags that are good quality and add 2 more. The XD-45 is the 1st .45 I've ever owned. I REALLY like it. I've got about 3k rounds through it and have had 1 problem. That was on round 2 and was my fault. Check out the site http://www.xdtalk.com/forums/ G...

Hum! Me like! I'd have to call my squaw 3 horses, she's to big to be a pony... At least she hasn't made it to Clydesdale status, yet

Although I have.

MikeS.

Thanks guys!

Hey guys, i asked this a few days ago in Rimfire's primer thread but didn't get an answer. So I'll ask it directly now.

Anyone here have problems with Federal primers being "soft"? My Lee primer handloader says not to use them.

So, what do you think of them?

MikeS.

Hey guys, I'm looking for some of your favorite loads using the above with 1 of the following 3 powders. 2400, W231 or W296. I'd like to use this in my Marlin 1894 and my Smith 629 6". I'd like to see around 1,200fps out of the 629. Alliant (2400) says a MAX charge of 24grains with a 200grn Spe...

I have a Model B bought in 1992 after an earlier one was stolen by a friend of my oldest girl. Insurance payed off and I turned right around and bought another. I have 3 mags for it. I see mags on G'broker going for a hundred plus. This is a fun pistol to shoot but like someone said finding the bras...

MikeS.

My local gun store received 20k of Federal of each of the 4 main types of primers Monday. Yes, Monday Memorial day. The owners met the truck to unload it. They also got numerous cases of ammo in. I bought 1k of small and 1 of large pistol primers. Anyone here have problems with Federal primers being...

MikeS.

I've done the same with my Ruger single-six. Shot LR in the Magnum cylinder.

MikeS.

I learned in '94 about primer availability or lack there of. I too saw this coming and bought ammo, powder, primers, cases and bullets starting back in '07. I get paid every 2 weeks. Every 2 weeks I bought something of the above. Back in January I got a decent bonus check. I picked up 10k primers, 5...

MikeS.

Rimfire, PM just sent. Thanks!

MikeS.

Well I'd like someone to 2x check me before I blow something important off/up. Then we'll see about a report.

MikeS.

hey gang, I just completed my 1st 50 reloads on my own equipment. I've reloaded several hundred on a friends progressive machine. This was on my own Rockchucker press. I used Winchester small pistol primer. 6.9grns of Bullseye and a 158grn bullet. The bullet has the bottom half jacketed and the top ...

16" Winchester platter stacks? How many on here have worked with those? I have. First system was an IBM 1130 with 12k of core. It initially had a single 16" platter. Was later upgraded to a stand alone multi-stack drive. Ran under Fortran. I still use a lot of COBOL on our IRS mainframes.

My Dad was born and lived several years on a ranch just south of Ft Worth. I still have 2 cousins and their extensive families there. Love Texas and it's belief in freedom. In that picture of the Rangers I don't see a single "cowboy hat". What we are led to believe by Hollyweird is what al...

I've been told the same thing about security clearances. I have one and my dealer says I always get bumped to the 2nd level during the call. I've only been delayed once.

Thanks for the info.

MikeS.

Bear done got it! Here is what I posted elsewhere I was asking for help. THANKS Bear 45/70! Ok, after about 3 hours total I got my 600 back together. The video I was watching showed the bolt forward when putting the trigger group back in. On this Mossberg the bolt had to be towards the rear of the r...

MikeS.

Thanks Dave, same video. I'm not holding my mouth just right to get the trigger group past the 2 bars. a real Pain you know where.

I had a big problem with GM back in 1995 with a 92 Chevy van. After the way GM jacked me around on their extended warranty I've sworn to never buy another GM anything. If I needed a full size truck I'd consider a Ford. I like the no bailout thing. I don't need a full size though. I buy Toyota cars a...

My local WM had 20 some boxes of Federal 550 packs last week for 13.97 a box. I relived them of 10 boxes. They were out of all pistol calibers except .40S&W. I also bought a box of CCI maxi-mags for 9.97 a box of 50. I bought a NAA mini-revolver 4/15. A true pocket gun. It rides in my front pock...

That 22WMR cylinder is hardly a paperweight. The two single-sixes I've shot were much more accurate shooting the WMR instead of the LR. The 22WMR turns the little six into a whole different beast. - Tristan I know , my remark was tongue in cheek due to the cost of .22 Mag vs Long Rifle. Allegedly t...

MikeS.

No help? Darn.

MikeS.

I found a good video for stripping a Mossberg 500 and putting it back together. I've watched the video several times and understand how everything goes back together. I get stuck putting the FCG back into the receiver. It hangs on the 2 bars, shell holder and interrupter. Any suggestion? I've tried ...

MikeS.

I think you have a good fine pistol there. Good for you.

I've never found a Glock that was comfortable in my hands. I do like my XDs though. A G20 might be the only Glock I'd consider. Since there is no 10mm XD. I and several others keep bugging them for one though.

MikeS.

Great looking shop, wish I had 1 like that around here. Keep up thr good work.

Unfortunately not until she is 6' under.

She was evaluated for a lung transplant, not a viable candidate.

Thanks y'all.

I've not shared this with y'all here before but now I will. In 2004 my wife was diagnosed with emphysema. She did OK until June 2007 when she got pneumonia real bad. Spent 15 days in the hospital. Had surgery to clean off the and repair the left lung. From that her emphysema got much worse. She has ...

2 guns I don't understand why I don't own. 1 is an all original Luger and 2 is a Python. As much money as I have spent on gun stuff over the years I should have nice specimens of both of these. Some day...

Nice find on both the Python and the SA.

MikeS.

Another very satisfied Midway customer here as well. Thanks Midway!

MikeS.

I've got 1 of those in SS, it is a lot of fun to shoot.

MikeS.

WD-40 to reseat a tire is old news in the 4x4 off road community. I saw it used for the 1st time about 30 years ago.

MikeS.

That was GREAT, thanks!

MikeS.

Why is that bad man killing them there cute lil doggy type critters??? The lil cute red pups sure would be fun to play with.

MikeS.

Admission to the big show around here is now 12 bucks. Most other shows are about 6. The days of good buys at a show are very far and few between now.

Was he trying to get the new watermelon patch in?

I'm a Life Scout and OA myself. It's a great program.

Doc, a lot of good Masonic brothers there too. I'm friends with a couple Past Grand Masters and the current Grand Secretary. The Grand Lodge is in Nashville. When I was in the state last October I visited several Lodges and was treated like visiting royalty in all of them. I have family that lives j...

Howdy Lever, nice to meet ya!

Of course I watched them on Tv and movies but didn't know anything about them. In High School my friend Karl had a Win. 9422 he bought with the money he made working at McDonald's. We used to take my Win semi-auto 170 and his 9422 and go shoot the afternoon away in the Sierra foothills outside of Fr...

I usually go to 2 shows in my area and neither has jewelry, jerky or beanie babies. Seems like the Harrisburg, Pa does have some but I don't go to it very often. When I stopped in Knoxville, Tn October of 06 they had that stuff and they were frying up fresh cracklins. Boy were they good! The Mason-D...

MikeS.

Very nice!

I've taught my 3 girls and my wife; "A gun is ALWAYS loaded. NEVER point it at something you don't intend to destroy." The first time I took them shooting we shot cans of soda. I told them what you saw that soda can do by exploding and fizzing all over the place is the same thing that happ...

MikeS.

I would never think of doing such as that... Yeah, right!

MikeS.

I recently bought 10mm bullets and brass from Gunbroker.

Y'all saw the pics of the Marlin I bought Ava for Christmas, right? Well we are sorta in the same situation. We totally raised her from birth to 7 years with minimal help from her mother and absolutely none from the sperm donor. Our daughter always claimed Ava on her taxes. We didn't fight the issue...

Howdy!

Nice looking handgun, enjoy it.

Prayers up to all of you. I too lived in Calif. and was exposed to way too many wildfires. I read earlier tonight it is now upto 130 dead. AU will no more execute the person(s) that started these fires then the US would. Both countries have lost their balls. That is about the only thing I think the ...

MikeS.

Speaking of WM I stopped in this morning all they had was 3 boxes of Federal bulk. No Remington or other .22lr. They did have some .22magnum. So I bought all 3 boxes.
