The .45 G.A.P. is a somewhat new cartridge, and I can't seem to find any load data that caters to the reloading supplies that I have right now. I currently have standard Winchester brass, as well as some of the Winchester "Ranger" brass. About 120 pieces total. The only powder I'm using at the...

OK, here's the deal. I had a 30 minute presentation written explaining how important and serious this kind of thing is. I explained what a firearm was, different types, and different reasons people own them. I had a few hand outs that I let the students pass around, and I had a few stories...

Well, the class was a major success. I talked for almost 2 hours. I cant really go into detail, because I'm about to head out for work. I'll explain more when I get home. :D Depicts- I had no idea weather I was going to simply speak the whole time, or try to incorporate some...

52- Thanks. I've arranged a few of the above suggestions into my lesson plan. As far as depicts post, it's no sweat off my back. Apparently he doesn't have anything useful to say, so he brags about himself.:cool: I know what to tell these kids, I have a lesson plan, and I posted here...

Yes. No, I'm an 18 year old senior in high school. I have to do a "senior project" and I decided to do it on gun control. This little class is part of the "product" that is required for it. I wish I could have had a younger group of students, because I'd like to let them know as early as I...

Interesting. Then why could I not trim the ACP cases down to the appropriate length? Is the case thicker to accomidate higher pressures?

Thanks for the input guys, keep it coming. I have a friend in LE that said he has some brochures and what-not that he can give to me, and I still have some work to do on the hand outs that I plan on giving to them. Thanks again guys.:)

Is it possible to use .45 ACP dies to reload the .45 GAP cartridge? It doesn't seem likely, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Thanks.

I have to present to roughly 80 fifth graders a class on firearm safety. What a firearm is, what to do if one is found, stuff like that. The class has to be at least 45 minutes long, and I have no idea what I'm going to do. Can you guys give me any suggestions? I don't want to sit up there and...

Thanks for the replies guys. The only manuals I have are the ones that came with the reloading kit I bought. I guess I need to pick one up. Better safe than sorry right? Thanks again.

I went to the store today and snagged some reloading supplies. 1k federal "gold medal" match large pistol primers, some Winchester .45 auto cases, and some bullseye powder. Are there any loads that cater to these specific brands? Any help would be appreciated.

Theyre back up now. cpileri- You should try again with a different screenname, I don't know what the problem is. If you'd like I'll bring your problem to the mods. You weren't banned were you? I've been there about a year, and probably seen less than a dozen people banned. What was...

I post regulalry on survivors SKS boards, but I can't seem to access the site right now. Does anyone else have this problem? We had a crash awhile back, if it's happened again.... :fire:

Horseradish- If you could find that info I would really appreciate it. If I were to get one I would probably go with the double action. I've shot single action revolvers before and I don't really like it. However I'd really like to get one someday, just trying to find some info about it...

I'm pretty much into milsurp firearms, and the Nagant revolver has cought my eye. I like this pistol, I like it's history, I like the way it feels, and I like the way it looks. There is one thing that is sort of shunning me away from buying one though, and that is the trigger pull. 13#...
