You are using the old Black Responsive theme. We have installed a new dark theme for you, called UI.X. This will work better with the new upgrade of our software. You can select it at the bottom of any page.
You can physically shoot 380s out of a nine but the 380 is straight walled and the nine is tapered. The cases will swell, and five stuck cases would be annoying to extract and is not a safe practice. Also the moon clips probably won't work either. Every 380 I've seen shot in a 9mm required some...
I would consider the accutrigger type sear catch mechanisms to be a failsafe more than a safety. If you pull the main trigger without pulling the middle tab on an accutrigger, the sear trips but catches itself before firing. If you do that to a Glock trigger, you are just kept from pulling it...
Depending on the situation, the reverse plug is more of a necessity than an upgrade. With a bull barrel you lose the bushing, and need the reverse plug to hold the recoil spring in. In short barrel bushing guns you might see such a plug to reduce the offset force on the bushing. I have an old 4...
Prob should have mentioned on a really cold day the velocity can be higher. I figure maybe with the cold the bore shrinks and pressures are higher. Or maybe the chrono calibrates differently in cold. Like I said part of the fun.
At any rate a Chrony can be had for under a hundred and they seem...
I put it off for decades then bought a little chrony. Actually use it a lot more than I thought I would, it is a lot of fun. Helps to have a system to set it up, I try to use the same bench and put some tape on the rods at the height I want my rounds to go through so I can bore sight easier...
I shoot mine left handed and it took me a couple hundred rounds to notice that it was swelled for a righthanded person. I found the stock to be pretty decent.
Heh, when i was a poor college student i broke the front sighf off my glock and put electrical tape over it. Lasted three years rhat way. I have never got jb weld to stick as good as everyone says it does but i suspecf it needs a good surface prep.
Probably cost an annoying amount but we just...
for me the trick is to think about it beforehand (usually means coming up with the justification to buy one), save the money, and jump on the first one you find that meets the price point. I was probably a year away from buying one when I found an upper set up almost exactly like my 5.56 upper...
I had the same issue about twenty years ago on a smith 27, the large frame .357. This was a 1970's vintage gun. In this case, the other end of the pin was held in by the sideplate and it still worked fine. It was only when a gunsmith friend was showing me how to take the plate off that we...
I would worry more about the inconvenience rather than the legality, a friend of mine got traffic stopped by a stater, who decided to run the several guns he had, and then wasted half an hour trying to get the scope mount off a carbine (no one carried hex wrenches back then). He let him go...
I use the YHM's, they are reasonable quality and cost, but mostly because they offer an A1 style adjustment. I tend to set my sight then forget about it. The a2 clicks drive me nuts because sometimes they drift or your buddy decides to adjust your sight all the way over on qualification day...
Have one, it is a lot of fun, and I did shoot IPSC and steel plate with it, but I don't shoot it much anymore for fear of breaking something hard to replace. Reliable, accurate, loud, and spectacular muzzle flash. You gain a lot of velocity lacking a cylinder gap. Some small parts interchange...
My first press was a Lee Turret, and I got very good service out of it. Back then I was a 100-200 round a month shooter. When I got into competition, I picked up a Dillon 550 (2000+ rounds a month). Once you get the Dillon set up, it is fast.
I kept the turret though, I use it for my small...
an associate of mine had one of the older benellis that had a roller handle. I watched him spend about five minutes trying to "unscrew" the bolt handle before I told him you just yank it out.
I am assuming you are talking about horizontal shoulder rigs. The only ones I have seen are custom jobs, I think the old Alessi Guardian was one, and I think Null made an upside down one for the bodygurad 49 type revolvers.
I am somewhat surprised to see that Galco currently lists some of...
I was going to mention something about those type of jams, but did not think it applied here. One of the worst jams to get is when the round manages to wedge itself between the bolt head and the walls of the receiver. The round usually gets bent and lodged on the far side. This jams the bolt...
The only real reason for the ppk/s was to make it big enough to be importable. Most ppk's in the US are US made or pre 1968. Personally, if I am going for a pocket piece, I would rather have the ppk. Otherwise, if the grip is too small, the ppk/s may feel better, or the extra round may matter...
I happen to have one of the rare 28 inch hunting barrels for the 8 shot 500. Used to hunt with it (my state does not have waterfowl, so back then they did not have a mag capacity limit).
for that money you can buy any of the big brand name security shotguns, or you can get a used one and trick it out. Mossbergs can be had pretty cheap brand new, even Big Five has some on sale right now for under $300.
The 870 is smoother, more solid, and durable for shooting a lot. If you...
