    seperate fact from fiction

    I was just wondering if anyone had an layman’s interpretation of S254, the bill that is now going to the House. I read what the NRA and GOA had out on their websites, but can anyone give an accurate and complete list of the proposals that are included? For instance I heard that there was an...

    Belly Band - 2 Thumbs Up

    Just picked up a Deep Cover Belly Band yesterday at the local gunshop, and was I impressed. For those of you not familiar with these types of holsters, they consist of simply a 6” wide doubled piece of elastic with two pockets sewn into the middle. The ends are fastened with about 14” of Velcro...

    Loading Frangible ammo

    Has anyone had any experience loading frangible ammo? I ran into a guy on the 1911 Mailing list who has and it sounds like it will work, the only problem I have is the lack of precedent to go on. I like having some load data to start with, you know? I have allready made the rounds, my 180 grain...

    Colt Commander Jamming

    OK! I'm going nuts now! My Colt Commander in 9mm, with maybe 250 rounds through it, started jamming. Not even getting to a stovepipe, the old case just never began flipiing to clear the slide. Working the action by hand I could see that the extractor was not griping the case solid, it was sort...

    Magazine Safety

    Hey Harley! I have a bad feeling that I might be a serious abuser of your services in the future! :) My question is on the Magazine safeties that the new S&W autos are advertizing. I have heard it described as something new, but haven't magazine safeties been around for quite a while...

    .22 ammo at Wally

    Went to Wal-Mart the other day to get some stuff and as I made my rounds through the sporting goods dept. I noticed a slight sale on .22s, I decided to pick up a few K. Now I don't purchase a lot of ammo a Wally-world, being as most of my ammo is bulk or my own reloads, but it hasn't been that...

    NICS Question

    A friend of mine in Virginia just got rejected from the NICS. He is very curious as to why he was rejected. I have never ran into this problem, so have no ideas where to go or who to ask about this info. Does anyone have any ideas where he can find this information out? TIA - SCatt

    1911 Sight Question

    My my my, I'm just full of 1911 questions aren't I? Here's my latest... I have a '70 Series Gov't Model with fixed sights. The gun shoots dead on at 25yrds and I like it that way. The only problem I have is that sight pick-up is really poor, so I would like to improve that w/o putting new...

    1911 Bushing Comps

    OK. Since we have a good discussion on custom 1911s going, what thoughts do you guys have on the Barrel Bushing Compensators? You know, the ones that replace the bushing and are only in position during lockup. I was looking into getting one for my Gov't model. -SCatt

    Lee Turret Press

    I can see that we have a lot of Dillon fans here (what can I say, good stuff), but what about the Lee Turret Press? Found a deal for the press + dies for $80. I have always enjoyed my Lee Challenger, but is the turret press OK for the money? -SCatt
