    Unbelievable Smith & Wesson 41 fix!

    Smith and Wesson sent a replacement! As I had written, I sent a nice email to Smith & Wesson telling of my problem with this firearm, and both that the magazine caused jams in a fellow shooter's Model 41, and, that a Model 41 magazine from my other Model 41 worked without a problem in this...

    Unbelievable Smith & Wesson 41 fix!

    Thanks response Hey -- I wish to thank all who responded to my "...fix" thread! I'm obviously not the brightest lamp in the fixture, and having spent lots (to me) of cash for a Performance Center '41 which presumably (my obvious mistake) came with "tuned to firearm" magazines -- that's the...

    .45ACP head query

    I just acquired a bit of range brass in .45ACP which I decapped, tumbled, and the ultrasonically cleaned. Most looks really great, but when I insert many in a .45ACP cartridge gage (Midway brand) -- the head won't go down to flush as they should. If I run said brass through a Lee bulge-buster...

    C & R License?

    Renewal came yesterday -- May 19th renewal I received the renewal in mail, posting it and $30.00 cheque the very same day. The renewed license -- good for another three years came yesterday. As mine had expired, I rang the BATF and the very nice lady on 'phone sent me a LOA -- Letter of...
