I would like to clean this magazine. How do I disassemble it? The bottom plate is different from other pistol magazines that I have seen. TIA

Some fellow at my gun club suggested that I use this. I have been using Hoppe's Elite and he said this was much better. I would like to hear from guys who have used this product.

The die in question is a Lee .32 ACP sizing die. There is a lot of accumulated crud inside. Is there some easy way of cleaning this out.

Does this powder have a fast burn rate? I seem to feel a sharper recoil when I use this in my hand loads. TIA

I have a large number of primed .32 ACP cases which need to be resized. Obviously I will remove the decapping pin before doing this. With the pin removed, is there still any danger of a detonation? I would like to get some advice on this, especially from guys who have done this. TIA

I have a type 1 model of this pistol in .32 ACP which I shoot regularly. Over the last 15 years I have shot more than 10,000 rounds through it without any problems. About half of these were hand loads. But the magazine has never been cleaned and it must be filled with crud. I cannot...

The pistol is the newer model and I have had it for about 3 years. In that time I have put about 1500 rounds of factory ammo through it without any problems. So here is the situation. When I push an empty magazine into the grip it goes in easily and locks in place. However, when I put 7...

There is a gun show coming up this weekend and I am thinking of getting one of these pistols. I would like to know if there are any specific problems with them. A guy at my club said there was trouble with the magazines feeding properly and that new mags were almost impossible to find. Please...

I just saw one of these in a gun shop. I would rate the finish about 90-95%. Mechanically there are no problems and the barrel is pristine. It also comes with an original box. The price is $275. I have never owned or fired one of these guns. So I would like to hear from people who are...

Several weeks ago someone here posted a site that listed where to purchase hard to find items such as powder, bullets, primers, etc. I neglected to bookmark it and would appreciate it if he would post this again.

I shoot .38 special with 148 grain lead wad cutters. The accurate, light recoil load I have been using for some time is 3.1 grains of 231. I have used up my supply of 231 and the only powder I was able to purchase lately was a 4 pound jug of Tightgroup. I would like to hear from guys who...

I load .32 ACP, .38 special and 9mm. Over time I have used Accurate #5, 231 and AutoComp. All have produced considerable fowling with AutoComp being the worst of the three. I am searching for a powder for these handguns that burns more cleanly. I have read some good things about Tightgroup...

I would like to get some info about this pistol and some idea as to it's current value. I don't know how to post photos here so I can only provide a detailed verbal description. I purchased this handgun around 1960 when I was involved with Bullseye pistol shooting. Over the last several years I...

I have read many good things about this gun, but I do have one question. How heavy is the trigger pull on this pistol? Is it more than 5 pounds? This is important for me because I am a senior citizen with arthritis in my hands.

I am thinking of buying one of these for use as a shooter since I have read good things about them. I would like to hear from guys on this board who have had experience with them TIA

I just saw one of these in a case in a local gun shop. It was described as a World War II bring back. It had the BM on the grips indicating it was issued to the Italian Navy. Judging from what I could see I would rate it as Excellent following NRA standards for antique guns. I would rate...

I have had my press for about 5 years and have been very pleased with it. Here is my problem. After loading many thousands of rounds the end of the clear plastic PVC tube became so stretched it would no longer stay in place on the end of the ram. I then sliced off a small piece so the end...

I am a very senior citizen. For years I have had a Keltec P 32 as my carry weapon. However, old age and arthritis in my hands has weakened them so much that it is difficult to shoot this double action pistol accurately. However, I can shoot very well with my single action 1903 Colt. Although...

I have read about people making the front sight orange so as to offer a better contrast in the opening provided in the rear sight. Can I do this with some sort of tape and if so, what kind? I have tried using orange colored fingernail polish but it also smeared all over the sides of the front...

I have always carried an automatic for personal protections. But advanced age has now made it difficult for me to work the slides on these guns, so I am thinking of switching to a very light revolver. Guns such as the Ruger LCR, the S&W Titaniums, and others of this genre. I would appreciate...
