    EAGLE Magazines

    Any comments about Eagle magazines? I found some new prebans for $13.99 each,, that will fit a model 59. They are 17 round. Have never heard of Eagle, but the price makes them tempting.

    Does anyone else like their SW9VE ?

    Does anyone else like their SW9VE ? It seems that every time that I mention to someone that I have a SW9VE, they tell me that they had one, and hated it.

    Remington Bore Cleaner

    Any comments on Remington Bore Cleaner ? I bought a bottle the other day. The store was out of my favorite. It seems to be more of a polish than a solvent. Almost like Flitz. MR.G
