    First squib in a 9mm

    Cheers guys, I've only been reloading a couple of years - and today, I got my first "squib" in a hand-loaded" 9mm. It was about 80 rounds into the batch, it "felt" and "sounded" normal - but it only put the slug into the rifleing - just enough to keep any other rounds from loading (THANK...

    Multiple charges

    Cheers guys, I've read a lot of posts about "multiple powder charges in one case". Can I ask how/why? I've only been reloading a couple of years, but when I started, I figured out real quick - no matter which stage of reloading I'm in, if I'm interrupted, I leave the charging handle...

    I just HAD to laugh!

    Cheers all, Earlier tonight, I'm in the dining room playing on the "pute", she's watching "Ghost Whisperer" on the box. I'm really not paying attention to the TV, but all of a sudden, I hear out of that room: "Christ, get her a GUN and teach her to use it!" Now this is from a woman who...

    For the Hawaiian members

    Cheers, On Channel 4 (HNL) last night, they did a blip about HI's gunlaws (strictest in the Nation) and then added this little tidbit. After the Xerox shooting, the local PD has Officers that talk to your personal physician about your mental stability before they will clear you to...

    Shotty "behind the door"

    Cheers guys, I've read many post on multiple forums that talk about having a "shotty" behind the door - why not put it ON the door? My 870 is mounted on my bedroom door. Using cheap stuff bought at Home Depot or Lowes, it's very easy to mount one that is off the floor, basically "out of...

    A retired border patrol agent shows some common sense This letter sent to Tennessee Senator Bill Frist from a retired border patrol agent, and it has more common sense than all the bull being spewed from the Senate, with the exception of a few sensible representatives. Dear Senator...

    Tela-tubby with a gun

    Cheers, I didn't see this, but was informed by a very good friend that this morning on cable, channel 2 ran a filler story on the morning news about some woman who'd bought a "Tela-tubby" for her son's 2nd birthday. This is one of those toys that "talk" when you squeeze it's hand...

    NRA - don't they talk to each other?

    Cheers people, I'm a "seasonal fire pilot", un-employed right now. I start again in a few weeks. Last season was BAD. I made 55% of what I did each of the pervious two years. OK - It's tight right now. Not a problem - except for the NRA! I've gotten THREE calls today from the NRA...

    Any "tunnel rats" out there?

    Cheers people, I flew "slicks" for three months in Nam - then I got transfred to "guns" - but I covered a bunch of "t-r's" and I would like to know if any of them survived. My tours were mostly III corps, but I had some "out of country" experiences also. I believe my e-mail is valid -...
