H&K USP H&K Hk45 eta: mag release is technically at the corner of the trigger guard and grip, but its the lever type and not a button.

Lee sells theirs as .40SW/10mm. :)

but can throw you off as a reloader since they don't use large pistol primers.

Sounds more like a problem with bad habits than gear.

Already like that in VA. You still have to go through the metal detectors but you just show your CHP to the Capitol Police officer and they wave you through. And this includes Open Carry and Concealed Carry.

I like some of the 2nd gen versions as well, like the 659 and 645 for example.

Good to hear. I just didn't want anyone to think it was a good idea to shoot lead through a factory Glock barrel and never clean it. THAT will not end well. I'm not a Glock basher either, one is on my hip every day, that I trust my life to.

well, that sounds like a winning combination, if you like blown up guns.

I use Unique for almost all my handgun loads (9mm, .38, .45, and sometimes .357mag though I sometimes use 2400) In 9mm I use FMJ, the rest I mostly use cast lead. It's a bit dirty in .38 and .45, the 9mm is pretty clean actually. I thought it was because it was a higher pressure cartridge...

How can a cartridge be obsolete if several countries still use it as standard issue? Czech Republic, Slovakia, Finland, etc. all still use 7.62x39 last time I checked.

Sure thing. First, here's the applicable federal law from the ATF website: http://www.atf.gov/publications/download/i/atf-i-5300-2.pdf And the applicable VA laws: http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+18.2-309 ("Minor" is defined as someone under age 18)...

You're fine. I bought my first handgun from a friend when I turned 18. In VA you only need to be 21 to buy a handgun from an FFL holder (dealer). Private sales, min age for handgun transfer or possession is 18. When transporting it in your car it has to be either in plain view (and can be loaded...

thanks for the report :) . My 64-5 4"HB wears the same Pachmayr Gripper grips normally. It's amazingly accurate with the same 158gr Plated flat points from GA Arms :cool:

I prefer them to the LSWCHP if I'm loading my .357mag up with .38s since I believe it will be a little better at barrier penetration due to it having a jacket. It doesn't recoil any more than my Federal 158gr LSWCHP +P which I use in my .38.

stainless steel S&W autos...they weigh as much as a 1911 and are very easy shooting due to the weight.
