    Bullet for 40 S&W H&K USP

    I'm going to start reloading for my son's 40 S&W H&K USP, but I haven't a clue about which bullet to use. I have never loaded this caliber before. I'm thinking in terms of 165 gr. Sierra, but I don't know if this is best. For home use if needed. I heavier better? I am well versed in ballistics...

    No lube in lube ring. O what can I do?

    I need help to solve a small problem. I have some LSWC bullets with some or all of the lube missing on the lube ring. Can I buy the lube and replace it in the ring? Is the lube in a jar? Is it thick/thin? I have no experience with the stuff. I probably have seen it sometime somewhere, but...

    Ruger Blackhawk rear sight issues

    I brought my New Ruger Blackhawk to the range Friday for a test run. The pistol shoots as expected 1/2 to 1 in groups at 10 yards. However, and there is always an however. The rear sight does not respond to elevation changes, either up or down. The point of impact does not change. The bullets...

    Colt Police Positive 38 Special, circa 1919

    Can anyone tell me how to remove the left side plate? Also what/how to remove the cylinder latch? Or does it come off with the plate? The cylinder/yoke assembly is already off. No problem there. The revolver is rusted in many spots, but I have been soaking it in oil for the past 4 days. The...

    Colt Police Positive .38, circa 1919

    My brother-in-law gave me his Colt Police Positive .38 revolver to see why the action "won't work", as he describes it. A lot of oil all over has solved most of the problem, but I want to go inside and check everything. It's been on the top shelf in a closet and has developed some rust. The New...

    LPA rear sight on my Charles Daly 1911

    OK, OK, I know it's a POC, but it's what I got, except for my SA 1911's. :) Anyway, the LPA sight tears up my hand everytime I operate the slide. I want to get a smoother rear sight, like the Novak Lo-mount, but I need to know if anyone even makes a dehorned sight to fit the LPA slide cuts...
