Took out the Mrs. AR the other day after she started complaining that it would shot where she pointed it and therefore something is wrong with the gun. My "Yes, dear" :rolleyes: it couldn't be you. As all married men know, the wife does nothing wrong. Well, much to my surprise, the darn thing...

I just tried to make some .223 rounds for a AR15. The loaded rounds are jamming into the chamber and the only way to get them out is to slam the charging bar against the edge of a table. I discovered this while rifle seating a bullet for depth. This is my standard practice when working with a...

Anyone have a pet load that they would like to share? I am using 55 grain FMJBT for plinking and 62 BTHP's for serious shooting. Thanks.

I was looking into a .357 Sig chamber pistol. I am in a cheapo mode and do not want to pay $700 + for a Sig. I am interested in the Glock version, but really do not like the way they fit my hand. Currently, I rebarreled my Beretta 96 to the 357Sig and am a bit leery about the beating the 96 is...

Fast question. What weight recoil spring is needed for a 1911 clone in 38 Super. My loads are medium (about 1100 fps) with a 124 grain fmj bullet. Thanks!

When measuring for a new bushing, can one measure the ID of the slide where the bushing sits, or should one stick with the OD of the bushing itself? The idea is to get a bushing that is a little tighter without going to a full blown match bushing. Thanks, Joe

hello everyone, My question concerns the double feeding on my P35 HP. This pistol has been absolutly flawless until this evening. I could not get through a single mag without at least one failure. I have five magazines, two original with new Wolff springs, three after markets that I don't even...

The other day while channel surfing I popped over to Free Speech TV. FOr those who don't have this channel, it is a satilite station that broadcasts out of Seattle. It centers around "alternative issues". Yep, it is about as far to the left you can get. But I find find some of the programming...

I have a chance to pickup a reciever for a Sten. We know that the actual kits are available just about everywhere. SInce the law of 1996(?) concerning the new manufacturing of civilian subguns, I was wondering: 1) Since the parts are actually breakdowns from existing firearms, would the '96 law...

The quick and dirty of it. I bought a used Llama 1911 clone in .38 Super as a project gun. The gun shoots okay, that's all I can say. My plans are to work on the gun as a summer project and try to take from okay to good or decent. There are no dreams of a high performance race gun, I just want...

When we post (I am assuming that this happens to everyone) a screen pops up that says "Thanks for posting, the modirator has elected to review the posts...." or something like that. Do you guys really read everything before it hit the BBS? If yes, how do you keep from burning out? Just...

A friend recently had the scare of her life when a man tried to enter her house. She was very lucky that the would be burgler was a chicken and when he realized someone was home ran off. She did exactly what was expected of a possible victim, she called 911. The cops responded as fast as they...

Does anyone use a Beretta 92 for Bullseye? If so, would you share any info on your loading data. I have never seen anything in the 9mm line that could be called "match grade". Thanks.

Howdy, Who makes replacement sights for the Beretta 92/96? I would like to change these nasty mil-spec sights with a set of low profile adjustables. Is there enough meat on the slide to mount a dovetail front sight? Thank. Joe

For years I have heard about crimp on the finished cartridge. I usually eye-ball the crimp and haven't had any problems. Browsing through a couple of reloading books didn't turn up anything on exactly how to measure crimp. So, how do you measure the crimp on your finished cartridges?

Does anyone know of a web site that lists smokeless powders and their burn rate speeds? Thanks.

Can someone tell me what the advantages of the "small base" resizing die is? I saw them listed in a catalogue and am nit sure what they are. Thanks.

This is too cute not to share with everyone, especially you dog lovers. Tonight while doing my email, I saw the security lights pop on by the garage. "Stray cat" I thought. It is very nice out this evening so the front door is open with only the wrought iron gate closed and locked. All of a...

Today, my mantra should be "I am a dumb ass, I am a dumb ass". Picked up my nice, newly parkerized rifle from the gunsmith. The one I lovingly prepped and polished, the one that I installed a nice Hart bull barrel on, go her all ready to go. Decided that I wanted a black rifle, so off she went...

Hello everyone, This is an interesting question that I am seeking advise. A friend of mine was recently contacted by the maker of red dot sights in reference to become his sponsor. My friend shoots bulls eye and comes in every year for the Bronze in the Senior Olympics. Naturally I was excited...
