WHoooo! Good News!:D Removing the extractor enabled more effective troubleshooting of the reloading issues. Amongst all the issues I had adjusted my expanding die up. Not the mandrel, but the die itself. It looks like the entire case wasn't getting properly re-sized. I also tried a longer...

I'm using 200 RN Rainer (plated). I used to load everything to 1.245-1.250 until all these issues arose. I only started loading shorter to try and get the gun to work. I will load some up tomorrow night or Tuesday and see if they cycle better. Hopefully I can isolate the issue without an...

I removed the extractor entirely and cycled it some more. I'm still getting jams, although they are less frequent and a little different. Before I could see the bullets hung up on the extractor. The jams are happening on the last 1 or 2 rounds, mainly the last one in a magazine. Pictures of...

I checked the tension. It was VERY tight. I made the mistake of buying from a shop rather than just midwayusa. The place said they had adjusted it "properly". I loosened it significantly and did the "shake test" with an empty case and a loaded bullet. That helped a lot. I dropped in a 18...

I have a Springfield Armory 1911 in .45 that has seen 5+ years of normal use. http://www.springfield-armory.com/armory.php?version=4 It's probably had ~4-6K rounds through it. Awhile ago I started having failure to feeds and extraction problems. Turns out the extractor had broken off. I...

Panic Buys I wouldn't just assume that bans aren't going to happen. Obama wanted to pass an AWB during his first term, he just didn't want to pursue it until he was guaranteed in his second. The most recent shootings with ARs have brought more media attention. Not to mention the fact that...

Alright last night I posted this topic and I had taking sleeping medicine, so I wasn't on the ball. Also, I wasn't rude, an *******, or snappy to them. I had just been fixing a computer (to no avail) for 2 hours before my little police run in and I was in a little bit of a bad mood. Getting...

I was leaving a friends house today @ around 11PM. I crossed from a country road to a freeway (65 speedlimit) and was driving. I had just been shooting which made this even more fun/awkward. I got pulled over by two cops (double teaming w/ 2 cars). I was under the influence of nothing during...

With multiple people it seems to me that it's whoever you are nearest or facing.

Always keep a loaded mag w/ a gun. ALWAYS: even at home, the range, the car, etc.

Girls w/ guns = totally and incredibly hot.

SA is wonderful. Lifetime warranty. Much > than kimber.

If you put a gun ANYWHERE, especially in your pants you deserve to blow your butt off. An IWB holster costs $25 or $30, it's not alot. Edited for language. Family forum, lad. Let's keep it a bit cleaner. -Tuner-

Huge liar. Don't listen to any salesmen, ever. He was just selling his wares.
