That looks like the gas block on my bushmaster ORC. Compare the sides of the two pins, push the smaller side to the larger side. Usually, ejection port side to safety lever side. Before you do this you may want to make sure your muzzle device isn't pinned on though. You may have a loose gas...
I broke my decapping rod for my 223 RCBS die tonight. It broke inside the decapping pin holder to where I can't get that piece to unscrew. Anyone have a spare laying around?
I've loaded a couple thousand 147 gr Cnfp cast boolits using 2.8 gr of titegroup. It is very a very gentle but accurate load for both my Smith 3913 and my XDs.
Both windham and bushmaster have their carbon fiber versions that are running between $650 and $800. While many people bash the carbon for not being the most durable things in the world I have one and am not in the habit if dropping my guns, nor am in a combat area where they would be beat on...
As the title says I'm looking for someone in the St. Louis area that would allow me to shoot a box or two out of their 1911 style 10mm. The 10mm round intrigues me and I love the 1911, but I really don't want to buy one without shooting it first. I'd be willing to buy the ammo and pay for the...
I just saw on the Buy Sell Trade: Accessories that THR member Taktical is again taking orders for his hybrid and full kydex holsters. I just wanted to give THR an updated review of his holsters for a shameless plug. I currently have 3 hybrid holsters and 2 hybrid mag pouches from Tak. His work...
Just had a thought and wanted to see what everyone thought. If I have a lee universal decapping die and the expander balls for each caliber I load, can I put the expander ball in the decapping die and have essentially a
neck sizing die without buying anything new. I have no idea if this will...
I filled one of my holes with JB Weld and drilled it out to 1/16 or 1/8 I don't remember, and got the required hole to make 2.5 gr of Titegroup for my 147 9mm cast loads.
Mine was 45 acp (200gr swc 4.8 gr 231) out of my brand new colt 1911. I held it with my left hand (I'm right handed) with a thick glove on.
I was so excited when the smoke cleared and I still had 10 fingers.
I know ultimate defense in St. Peter's had a couple of FNX-45s in black and one in dessert tan last time
I was in there. Might want to give them a call.
I'm in the same boat as you looking for a 1911 in 10mm. For the value I'm leaning toward the RIA tactical 10mm. Everyone who has a rock seems to love them and for $600 retail kind of hard to beat, I'd love to have a long slide fusion but that is not anywhere close to the budget right now.
I've carried my XDs in 45 everyday since October, probably 1000-1100 rounds through it with no issues. I've convinced 4 other people to purchase one and they have the same experience.
Last week I purchased the 9mm model. Besides a smaller hole it may be better than the 45. You will not be...
Rc- that is a good question, but I have deprived and sized before trimming.
Splatter- thanks for the advice. All of my cases have been well within spec and they will have to stretch considerably before they will need any trimming.
I'm having issues with my lee trimmer system. When I chuck up the case in my drill and insert the stem attached to the cutter, the piece of the stem that fits in the flash hole is touching the chuck and keeping the cutter from trimming at all. Should I take a grinder and cut that piece down a...
