9mmMike Yes, you're right. I meant spring retainer insert, not mag cap. Of course me meaning the right thing and typing the wrong thing doesn't help anybody, does it?

IIRC, once the dimples are filed down, the old mag cap will no longer stay seated, as it is designed to be depressed past the dimples into the mag tube then twisted 90 degrees to lock it in there. If you already have an 870 that you want to file dimples off of, that's something to...

1/2 Bump, 1/2 Update Pulled a couple bullets. Both new Wolf with polymer case coating and the ammo at the center of this thread's inquiry are magnetic. Don't that's news to anyone, just thought I'd share. Does it mean there's a steel insert or just the composition of the jacket? So far, for...

One more thing... If I cannot get a clear determination of C/NC status, I guess I'll have to do the corrosion test. In addition to the original questions, here's one more. 4. Can you list a few currently obtainable rounds that are known corrosives? As you can all probably tell, I'm new to...

+1 for quality on Kel Tec's P3AT .

Backstory: I purchased a case of this 7.62x39 at a gun show. It was advertised as Portuguese, non-corrosive. Upon doing some initial homework I thought I had my bases covered. It wasn't until later that I found some other info that put doubt in my head. I have searched other gun boards as...

No one posted. I don't know if this is because A) no one has seen the movie yet B) no one liked the "thumbs up" icon in the same line as violence or C) no one who saw the movie already thought it was anything special :)

A History of Violence: a movie with a message Mods: the self-defense portrayed in this movie is almost exclusively carried out with a variety of firearms. Several autoloaders and a SxS shotgun. Most of the "graphic" shots in the movie are a result of gunfire and the make-up crew for this movie...

870 HD - empty chamber, safety off, mag full of 00 buck. Glock 19 - one in the chamber, 15 ready behind that one.

Ok, new policy: Every gun, when at home, is chambered and ready. Within reach at all times in the house is an 870 HD carrying 00 buckshot. In addition, sometimes the KelTec is near, sometimes the Glock 19 is near. Now if I can just find a way to conceal the 870 for EDC...:D Thanks guys for...

Correia: Amen, brother. Ready when you are. :D odysseus: As I said, they got him. My theory is, "Everything to end a confrontation, nothing to cause it." I did what I thought was right. If I was single and didn't have to worry about my fiance home alone at various times of day and night, I...

Jhaislet Exactly. I didn't want this guy watching the police approach one of the very houses at which he had just rang the doorbell 10-12 minutes ago. Thanks for that. A little follow up. No police report yet. I did, however, speak to some neighbors on my left and right. He did ring more...

Please allow me to clarify. First,I said "loaded gun" as a lighthearted reference to all the naysayers who say you don't need a "loaded gun" sitting around the house. Sorry the attempt at humor caused some confusion there. Second, I do not carry my Kel-Tec with a round chambered. After...

My fiancee and I were watching TV last night around 10:30p. The doorbell rang. Then it rang again. I had my KelTec in my hand and chambered in less than a second. I did not answer the door, as it is uncommon for our neighborhood. We don't have any kids around that ding-dong-ditch people and all...

In what I'll call "pre-observance" of 9x19, I dumped 200 rounds downrange on Saturday. Only shooter at the range from 4p - 6p located in a small clearing in the woods. Toward the end, the sun began its descent, golden glow all around, kept thinking as I calmly let the shot surprise me, "It...
