A friend has a collection of photos and pages of documentation his dad wrote about 22 caliber revolvers a number of years ago. Dad was a large format photographer so the 4X5 negatives are superb. He died a number of year ago and his son now has discovered all the negatives and the documents...

"One of John McCain's most celebrated achievements in recent years was his crusade to block a Pentagon contract with Boeing for a new fleet of midair refueling tankers. Incensed over what he denounced as a taxpayer "rip-off," McCain launched a Senate probe that uncovered cozy relations between...

http://bigpinekey.com/Video_Sound/IfIwasaterroist.wmv I have no idea who this guy is, who produced the video or anything else about the video. It does cause you to think a bit about the subject matter.

McCain now proposes to stimulate the economy by temporarily removing the Federal fuel tax. At 18.4 cents per gallon how much stimulation can you generate. Last year I purchases the most gas I have ever purchased as I did a major amount of traveling for a vacation across the lower 48. Personaly...

hopefully the mods will know where to fwd this. I have received a number of e-mails lately from someone who claims to be a firingline member. They keep asking for some dimensions from various pistols. Today/s email was something about building a 32 caliber pistol. From my experience with...

McCain sure seems to be doing a lot of defending of his past for a guy with nothing to worry about. And the fight season has not yet begun. Just imagine how this will come to haunt McCain in the campaign once the primaries are over. http://www.foxnews.com/wires/2008Mar...eating,00.html...

OK maybe I'm just out of touch with reality. But I think the story in the NYT as I read it indicates the Bush administration does not want the court to uphold the individual right under the 2nd. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/17/washington/17scotus.html?ref=us As I read this it appears the...

anyone have any opinions after using bullets made by either Moyer or Meister? I've been looking at there site and both seem to have a great variety of bullets available. And bot seem to know how to ship using flat rate through the post office. Shipping is a big deal for a few of us. UPS is not...

Going back to the 1930 era of the machine gun gangster. Machine gun Kelley is reported to have used model 1911 45 ACP pistols that had been modified to go full auto till the custom drum magazines emptied. Is this a fact or urban myth. This story has been told a number of time by a gunsmith I...

OK I need some assistance from anyone who uses a RCBS little dandy powder measure. I someone to tell me the diameter of the rotors for the little dandy. I was told the Little Dandy came on the market to replace the old Bonanza powder unit. Supposedly the RCBS unit uses the same diameter rotors...

So I reload a number of rounds using 148 grain WC Hornaday bullets with no problem. Then I changed over to using Western 148 grain WC. That is when the problem surfaced. The reloaded Western would not chamber into my revolver. They only entered about a third of the cartridge before they...

I was wondering what the thoughts out there are on using frangible bullets in steel challange matches. It seems frangible cost about 40% of what lead cost in the same caliber. When you talk about 200 or more rounds per day cost is a factor to most folks. Thoughts or opinions.

I'd appreciate hearing from a few steel shooters on their choice for caliber. I'm about ready to purchase/build a semi for myself. There is no sanctioned meets here but at least I'd like to be equipped with a semi that would be appropriate for when I get to a sanctioned meet. I'm preferring a...

I've been searching the web for a complete illustration of the 1911 45ACP and so far nada. Anyone know a site with complete illustrations of this pistol?

I'm interested in opinions (everybody has them) of the Brazo STI semi-autos. I've been thinking of purchasing a semi for steel plate challenge shooting. From past Bullseye I believe that your never going to exceed if the pistol is not capable of shooting better than you can make it score. Now...

I know I came across a page of information once upon a time that had a list of rounds and the required thickness of different steel to stop the bullet. If anyone knows the page I'd sure like to know where it is.

OK I was watching the tube and saw on a shooting program a timed event in which your weapon is placed inside a box on top of the bench. When the shot timer goes off you are to remove the weapon and make a hit on a steel plate. The time between the buzzer and the shot is your score. We have a...
