    Just looking for some feedback

    I'm looking at picking up a springfield operator or champion operator here shortly. At the moment I'm favoring the champion operator. This gun will likely be used mostly at the range, and occasionally carried, but I'd also like to get into some single stack USPSA. So I'd just like to hear...

    About NC handgun law ???

    I relocated to North Carolina about a year ago and I've finally got time to start building my gun collection back up again. However, I've ask local gun gurus and done what research I was able on the internet and I've been unable to figure out one thing; In order to purchase a handgun in NC...

    Do you trim pistol brass?

    I've been loading 9mm and I've been getting inconsistant OAL's. I'm usually getting +/- .002 I believe this is due to varying case lengths. I wasn't too concerned with it when I started building this load, but now I've worked it up a bit. Because of this I'm using a OAL with 'room for error'...

    My first 9mm reloads

    So I shot some of my own 9mm reloads today, and I'm happy to report that I did not blow up, nor did I destroy my gun. Great success! This first batch was a bit underpowered, I had a vew FTE's. I think I can solve that by bumping the charge up a little bit.

    1911 or S&W 686

    Hey fellas. Well I've made up my mind, sort of. I'm going to purchase a new gun at an upcoming show this month. I've narrowed it down to a 1911 (most likely a Para Ordnance) or a S&W 686. It will be primarily a target gun and fun at the range. Might get a little bit of carry, but I have...

    .357 Sig Unpopular?

    So what's the deal with this round (.357 sig)? It doesn't seem too popular. I'm really not aware of any LE agency that uses this round. Metro PD here in Vegas only approves of 9mm, .40 S&W and .45 auto for duty carry. And several local shops I've been in around town don't even keep .357 sig...

    I picked up some ''once fired'' brass at a gun show, I was getting ready to tumble and sort them when I noticed some of them had un-hit (live) primers. Do I need to take any special care when depriming these?

    Clays and 9mm

    Well I've done quite a bit of forum searching, and read a wide range of opinions on Hogdon Clays (not Universal) for use in 9mm. But this past weekend I found a steal of a deal on an 8lb keg of Clays I couldn't pass up. So I should point out that I'm reloading for plinking purposes...
