For a pure range gun, I'd probably go with the Springfield due to the steel frame, as it should hold up better as round count goes up. But either should serve you well. I have 7 Kimber 1911's and they've all been great from the start. My most recent Kimber is a LW that I got mainly to use as a...

Well OP, you inspired me. I just found a pre-safety JM .357 Marlin on Gunbroker for ~$1000 after taxes/fees, and it's now on its way. But to answer your original question. A blued steel & walnut, milled, lever action gun with the fit and finish of a Marlin given the current value of a dollar...

I've gotten some really good deals over the years, and I've overpaid a bit a few times. It all balances out close enough for me. The overpayments are usually from gunbroker once the fees and all are added in. But sometimes that's the only way to find exactly what you're looking for. Plus I...

I have a Tac-Sol on mine and it works great. (It's actually a Tac-Sol upper but they're supposed to fit both) https://www.midwayusa.com/product/2192115598

The metal competition one? No, the leather pouch? Sure. Not out of the ordinary around here. But like I said, I routinely carry them in my pocket. I've had no issue with them bending or deforming. Regardless, I'm still curious what about the moonclip caused your issue?

They actually fit pretty well in a speedloader pouch for K/L frame guns. There are also carriers made specifically for them, though they're geared more towards competition. I pretty much only carry my N-frames as woods/hunting sidearms, and usually throw the loaded moonclips in my pocket. They...

I am curious how you determined the moonclip was at fault? I have 3 S&W 45 acp revolvers, well over 100 moonclips (Wilson Combat & Factory S&W), and I've never experienced anything like that. Even when shooting 45 Super loads. For a quick reload I would much rather deal with a quality...

1978 pre-safety JM Marlin 1894 in 44 Mag. Williams receiver peep sight with a fiber optic front sight. A handy rifle that's fun to shoot and accurate with 240 XTP's and JSP's @~1600fps.

Yep, but it's still hard to find data for, and when you do it's all over the place. For example, the "loaddata.com" link you shared shows a 45 Super load of 7.3 grains Longshot with a Hornady 230 gn bullet. My Hornady 10th Edition shows max 45acp load for 230 gn as 7.4 grains of Longshot. So a...

It's hard to beat Lee. They work and they work well.

I know there have been a few threads over the years, but none that I saw recently. 45 Super is a round that data is not really readily available for. I've messed around with it a little in a G21 and S&W 625's, but am now setting up a 1911 for it. Does anyone have any 45 super loads they want...

I like 230 grain Remington Golden Sabers and 230 grain Winchester Ranger T. They can usually be found in the 50 round "LE" boxes for under $1 per round. They function perfectly and shoot accurately in my 3", 4", & 5" 1911's, Glock 21, Sig P220, AR45 and of course, my S&W revolvers. The Golden...

1911s are by far my favorite pistols to shoot. Here are a few of mine

I like 870's and Model 12's, but overall I have to go with the 870 for a few reasons. My '63 Wingmaster and my '59 Model 12

I planned on waiting a bit but caved as well. Mine is one that shot a bit to the left but that was easily fixed with a sight pusher. I love this little gun. Easily the best feeling/shooting pocket gun I've ever handled. No hiccups so far with Golden Sabers, Gold Dots, XTP's, or FMJ

I'm a fan of Mission Archery's offerings, especially for kids/teens, because of the wide range of adjustability and the price point. Draw length and weight can be fine tuned and adjusted as they grow. Mission is Mathews "value brand" My oldest is now 16 and has a Mission Craze he's been...

I've pocket carried .380s for 15+ years. The Keltec P3AT was my first, and is still the smallest & lightest, but the hardest to shoot well. Kimber Micro replaced it for a while. Same capacity, better trigger and sights, more manageable recoil, and much easier to shoot well. But much heavier...

Beautiful gun! I'd have bought it all day long for that price. I have a 2 tone frontier scout from 1958, but unfortunately mine has been modified for adjustable aftermarket sights. On a positive note, that allowed me to get it for $200 a few years back.

Though if its a tapered cartridge being fired in a rifle chambered for straight, that might explain the blowby, and fouling.

I don't have experience with the other 2, but I love my Mustang. I use it on a 22/45 Tacsol upper, a 22/45 light, a 10/22, a Bergara BMR, and CZ452. Super light, no impact shift, no first round pop, almost movie quiet. I do pretty much only use it in the long configuration. That said, it has...
