I've been carrying Georgia Arms 9mm +P 124 gr Gold Dot ammo for a number of years now, and have been happy with it. But time has taken its toll on my supply of it. I'm fixing to shoot up the last of my stock of it, and I ventured over to the GA website to take a look at resupply. Uh-Oh...

I encountered a thread over on another board about .30-30 reduced loads using cast bullets. Sounds interesting. Is anybody over here doing that sort of thing? Just wondering.

An acquaintance has an older Taurus revolver that appears to be in decent working condition and has evidently hardly ever been fired (although the finish is very rough with some surface rust -- looks rough but seems mechanically sound), and I've done a quick web search and haven't found anything...

I've got a question, one that I think I know the answer to but I'm going to ask it anyway. I'm going to be giving a handgun as a gift to a relative who lives out of state. No money is going to exchange hands, and the exchange will be face to face. Will this still need to go through a FFL, and...

Ok, we had a collision between geopolitics and handgun ammunition prices and availability over in General Handguns a bit earlier, and it seems that at least part of the discussion over there needs to be over here in L&P. So, here is the place to discuss that. What do our own national policies...

I picked up a S&W 15-2 a couple of months ago. Nice revolver, nice light trigger that my wife especially appreciates. Accuracy is outstanding. But it has this one nagging issue -- I get occasional light strikes when shooting DA. Ammo is my reloads, I use Winchester Small Pistol primers --...

I stopped by Georgia Arms' shop yesterday, and saw that they had some .38 Spl +P LSWCHP's, and picked up 100 of them -- I mean, the price was right at $10.50/50. They are obviously factory reloads (assorted headstamps) in nickel cases, but then again I trust their reloads. Anybody have any...

I just picked up a S&W 15-2 4", in prettty good condition -- some holster wear on the blueing, but otherwise in nice condition. Pinned barrel. S/N is K523XXX. Any idea what the DOB is?

What kind of ammo do you use for just plain old range & plinking use? What about "truck gun" ammo? Does anyone use any of the Russian steel case stuff?

Ok, as I mentioned in another thread, maybe another way to apply pressure to the SF pols and voters is to organize a boycott of businesses that are headquartered in SF or do the majority of their business or manufacturing in SF. Does anybody have a list of such businesses, or know how to...

I've seen .358 100 gr WC's at a couple of websites, and from one of those sites I've gotten some of them pre-loaded in .38 Spl. They seem just the ticket for the recoil averse like my wife. What I haven't found is any load data for that weight of wadcutter. Does anyone have any load data or...

Does anybody know any more details on this? http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/page1/3188695 Sounds like this CCW holder went to the aid of one of his employees and got himself killed, but took out the BG in the process.

Uh, no. For instance, this incident that is currently being played out in Germany right now. So, what does the BG do if he can't get a gun? Uh, use a knife, that's what! And, what can the unarmed populance do about it? Uh, hmm, lemme think about it real hard. I got it: Nothing! This guy...

I was at the range the other day, and after I finished shooting I was checking out at the desk. There was this gentleman there who had a brand new 4" 620. Hmm, it looked to me to be pretty much like a model 66, the only difference I could see was that it was a 7 shot instead of a 6 shot. Am I...

I've got an older 4" S&W 686, I see no dash on the model number. The serial number is AAR3xxx. Anybody have any idea of when it was manufactured? Just curious...
