    10mm Glock mashes case edge!

    I recently bought a used Glock 21 (3rd gen, manufactured 2001) with a very nice aftermarket barrel chambered for the 10mm Auto.

    Ransom Rest insert interchangability?

    Do any of you guys know if the Ransom Rest inserts for S&W K/L-frame will also hold a revolver based on the N-frame? I heard that the Pardini GT9 will work on the standard 1911 rests, which is what woke my thoughts.

    S&W XVR 460 without recoil dampening?

    Here in Sweden we can only get a license if it is for a handgun that is allowed in - and will be used for - competition. I'm really interested in the Smith & Wesson XVR 460 and therefor I've been looking at metallic silhuette shooting, where I could propably fit it in the Big Bore Unlimited...
