The Frog skin wasn't at all difficult to work with. It took a little more to burnish the edges then cowhide or Elephant but it wasn't bad (I still haven't figured out how to burnish Ostrich yet). The quality of my skins wasn't the greatest. They came to me with several rough patches where the...

Thanks, those are all Hermann Oak bought from Springfield Leather. Even the Elephant and Frogskin was bought from them.

I've made a couple, just finished #10 today. You won't see #1 but here's #2 #3 #4 #5 #8 and #10

Can someone tell me if the recoil difference is even noticeable between the 8 and 9 pellet versions of reduced recoil Winchester Ranger?

I'm using the Winchester Ranger low recoil 9 pellet 00 in my HD gun. They also make this in an 8 pellet version. My thinking was, the more pellets the better. But then again, there must be a reason they make it in 8 pellets and there must be pros and cons to each version. What are the pros and...

Can you point me this? Everything I find there contradicts your statement and in fact praises the ST-T2? I don't own one but am considering one and want to get the dope on it, good or bad.

a) 38 S&W Special b) 1 7/8" c) square d) 5 e) fixed f) J177xxx g) MOD. 37 Thanks!

Cheers George, you threw me for a loop and had me thinking I had maybe sleep posted to this thread ;) I read this thread hoping to get an answer to a question I have had since getting that rig. It's kinda on topic and since you were so kind to show off my rig as a good example of a BBQ rig...

I had a similar problem with the two free mags I got from the rebate. I figured out the problem when I had to diagnose the problem I was having with the two mags that came with the gun. At about the 600 round mark (approx. 300 through each mag) the original mags were letting the 3RD from last...

Speer Gold Dots! 250 grain at about 750 fps. It's what i have mine loaded with and I've read nothing but good about them.

When you guys mentioned it might have something to do with the leather it made me remember that i had wrapped the rig back up in the plastic that it was shipped to me in. So essentially the bullets were on the loops sealed in a bag with the leather...duh! I still think i want to try and seal...

(short version) This isn't really a reloading question but know you guys would have an answer here. Is there a way to keep lead bullets from oxidizing while sitting exposed to the air in the loops on a holster rig? (long winded version) I loaded up the bullet loops on my Mernickle rig with...

Here it is...the D-M4LE With the A3 carry handle from Mr. Kassnar. Thanks everyone!

WOW! What else can I say besides...Thank you very much Mr. Kassnar! I passed along your suggestions to my FFL guy and am looking forward to your PM regarding the carry handle! I'm always on the lookout for something unique and knowing that my D-M4LE could be one of the first to have a...

Thanks guys! I have my FFL guy looking into availability and pricing on the D-M4LE. I also asked him to check into getting the A3 detachable handle from Daly. He'll get back to me tomorrow. It seems like I read that the handles were not available separately?? I sent Charles Daly an email...
