    a general reloading question, and a question about presses

    I just finished reading the nra guide to reloading. I had one question from it because I haven't seen much people post about this. The guide recommends that you resize and trim the brass as necessary, for some reason I thought this was more applicable only to rifle rounds. I'm wondering since...

    meprolight adjustable sights

    Was wondering if any has had some experience with these? They appeal to me because they can be cheaply had from midway and that they are tritium and adjustable at the same time. I wouldn't mind having the front sight being a different color but then I'd have to purchase another front sight...

    post to a reply from the past...

    I posted before that my gf wanted a .44 anaconda because she's a recoil junkie. Someone on this board mentioned that I should be looking for a .454 casull for her.

    Now mind you this wasn't the first time. She had gone two other times. The first time was with a bunch of friends. Since there was so many people there I rented a taurus pt 99 and got 100 rounds with it. I showed her basic safety and how to load the pistol then I took a step back and let her...

    .45 to 9 mm conversions?

    I've been pondering this possibility of this conversion for a while. This would be the best for me as I would only have to purchase one gun. I was looking for a 9 mm to just shoot around sometimes, and a .45 for home defense. I was pondering on getting a charles daly .45 in stainless for home...

    opinions on 92fs vs pt 99

    I've always liked the beretta 92fs design but after getting used to the hk locked and cocked option I searched around to see if I could find something like a beretta 92 fs that had this feature.
