First experience with a Paddle release pistol, took my new VP9 to the range today. First shot (3 times) grouped very good just above bullseye. But, for three times it did not feed the 2nd round. I fed the same ammo through my Beretta with no problem. Came home, and after thinking this through...

Your Double Action Revolver? Do you shoot single action for better accuracy like I do? The trigger pull is just too darn long, I have never practiced enough DA to achieve any accuracy.

Just curious, what is your preference in a taper crimp on this .38 spl. lead. Into the crimp groove, or just before or just after the groove? I have seen it done both ways, any pros or cons? Click on middle picture for best view of bullet style. http://www.acmebullet.com/bullets/38-CAL-158-RNFP

Just got a new Galco Combat Master leather holster. As most, stiffer than heck but nice looking. Galco sells a product called DRAW-EZ SOLUTION FOR HOLSTERS. Got me to wondering, would good old WD40 work as well? Or might it damage the leather? I doubt it would be bad for the gun finish. Any...

I would like to install Fiber Optic sights on my M&P Compact, and was hoping someone might offer some suggestions, as to brand and so forth. I looked on Truglo, they offer some for the M&P but do not specify if it's only for full sized or the compact series. Waiting to hear back from them. Also...

I have no idea, what does it cost to ship UPS a handgun to a FFL in the USA? I read it has to be an "Overnight" air shipment? SN

My question is for those who own a PX4 Storm Compact. I own one in 9mm, that has maybe 800 rounds or so being shot. Today at the range, after the slide locking back when empty, after inserting a full mag the slide didn't want to return after dropping the slide release. I didn't give it much...

Anyone know where I could find, a replacement Barrel for a Beretta Centurion 96 in .40SW? Finding the shorter barrel for the Centurion series, seems to be a problem. Appreciate any ideas out there! SN

I need a replacement barrel for a Beretta Centurium in .40 SW. Does the Beretta 96FS use the identical barrel, or being a Centurium model does that require my getting a different barrel?

Just curious, if anybody sells their reloads. Not commercially, but just to friends or club members. And if so, what might be the potential liability in doing so? It has run through my mind, as I have over 10K in my various calibers on the shelf. Didn't intend to "stock" that much, it just...

Picking range brass is a Disease no doubt, and it leads to having several thousand rounds of loaded ammo on the self! Why do some of us let it keep growing? How many is just plain too many? I'm sitting on about 9,000 rounds now, in 9mm, .40SW, and .45 ACP. Why do I rotate my stock as I hit the...

I reload with lead cast bullets, and using my Lee equipment do taper crimp with the Lee Factory Crimp Die. The following statement is from a reputable cast lead Vendor, how many agree with him? As per his website: Please do not use factory crimp dies for cast bullet reloading. Cast bullets...

I'm a long time customer of Mike's at Mastercast Bullets, Carbondale, IL. Just wondering if they have gone out of business. Been trying for a month to contact, phone and email with no response at all. Anyone know what's going on with them? Regards

Running into more small primer .45's, Federal, Blazer, etc. If one wanted to mess around with the "mix", and changing out your Primer equipment, any reason one would need or want to go with a "magnum" (WSPM) rather than a regular Small Pistol Primer (WSP)? I'm sure the small would ignite the...

May have a chance, to buy a Colt 45 ACP Enhanced Officers Model 0918E Mk Series 80 in bright Stainless. NIB never shot. I hear they are somewhat rare. Anyone know what one should pay for it, and it's value? Thanks SN

Gander has a Beretta 96 black frame with SS slide. They tell me, as I can't find that variation online any other place, that is made special for Gander with that slide. Anyone else come across this? For Gander, price didn't seem out of sight $669), like a lot of their other guns. Mainly...

Had my mine made up, looking at the Sig P220 Super Match, then I look at this guy's video and his opinion. Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puT5mqhaFAk Need the Sig (and others) owners thoughts and opinions please. Regards, SN

I have used this Lee product for several years now, bought the "Kit" from Kempf's Gun Shop. I run in batches, as I did not like the "Index" system. A friend now wants the same setup to get started, any suggestions as to best Vendor/Prices from those recently buying this product? I just started...

After many rounds, today my S&W 1911 crunched 2 casings as they were ejected (out of 100 rounds). Caught somehow, and smashed the mouth of the casing into a "V" about in the middle. What gives? SN
