Hah! Yes, that will be brandished frequently! I do have a full sized one with many firearms. I just need a quick access bedside unit.

Ditto. 3” 1911 for me.

There’s nothing hippie about being healthy, watching what you eat, and staying fit.

So I have a real quandary for you all. I have a CCW. The kicker is I am a FED employee. I can’t carry on the clock or in a FED building or vehicle. I travel for work 9 months out of the year. You do the math...Kind of a bummer.

How about a battleship with 16” guns?

You mentioned 11 above. 12. You only spend your money on “Handloading” and have no other hobbies, life, or personal interests. You have no kids, family (anywhere), and you look at calendars and realized a decade has past before your eyes. Food is optional, you wear a diaper to stay at you...

I do the same. I have a “reloading journal.” My chronograph allows me to print off the results via excel. I print them out and tape them in there.

Ponder this... If you “handload” Something real special, feel it’s real dialed, go shoot, then replicate that said load...are you then just “reloading” Your hand loads? Seems like semantics to me.

I didn’t know there was a difference. I guess I do both depending on the caliber looking at the definitions above.

You beat me to it. The Park Service is real lame about firearms. Check before you go.

You’re right. You would need to have a population to sample from. Maybe a better way to look at it is an experiment. Change one variable at a time until a desired outcome is achieved. Really, that’s more of the realistic way most of us do things in loading. I found that if you finally get...

excellent. Thank you.

Bingo. Your basically taking a sample. Any higher sample will be more statistically viable, obviously. There’s no argument there. I know of zero people that make up 50 rounds batches to test on their velocities and the corresponding stats. That would be expensive and time consuming indeed...

Glad you like it. I’m saving my money for a Giraud.

I just bought a G19 MOS. I installed standard height trijicon night sights and a vortex venom. I hope to have it out and sighted in tomorrow morning. If I do decide to run it for CCW, the reflex will come off as I know I’m just not proficient with it...yet.
