    Hot .45 Colt loads out of moonclip-capable revolver?

    So, I'm interested in picking up the new Redhawk 45 colt/45 acp but I wonder about the lack of support around the part of the rim on heavy colt loads where the cylinder is relieved for moonclips. It reminds me of the "not-fully supported" chambers in glocks. Has anybody seen any issues come from...

    .327 Federal Magnum vs Body Armor, Tokarev comparison

    I have searched the internet extensively and have not found the answer to this question. The 7.62x25 Tokarev is well-known for penetrating body armor. Reputable gun review sites have confirmed and demonstrated this fact. Then along comes the .327 Federal Magnum. While not particularly...

    SP101 or S&W 632 for .327 magnum

    I think I really want a .327 magnum. I should have bought one years ago when they first came out, but I just never got around to it. Anyway, what are your opinions on these two firearms? Please keep the discussion just pertaining to these two, I don't want a SA .327 or a taurus. Thanks!

    Anybody ever purchased from F&M Reloading? How was your experience? I'm looking really hard at the Lyman T-Mag II and they have, by far, the best price on them. Any info would be helpful!

    HBE Leatherworks holster for my Glock 36, a review

    I placed an order with Eric Larssen of HBE Leatherworks for my Glock 36. I settled on his Pro-Slim IWB holster with a few custom touches. First of all, Eric is a stand-up guy. I love that he runs his own shop and has turned his passion/hobby into a viable alternative for us gun owners and those...

    rechambering/reberreling a revolver?

    Hey all, I'll start by saying I am not really a revolver guy. But I am interested in picking up a Nagant. I want one to keep stock, and I'd like to rechamber the other to shoot .38 spc (or .357 :D ), but barring that I would like to be able to shoot .327 federal. I know it would be expensive...

    VERY upset at classic arms

    I ordered a Polish Tokarev from classic arms over two weeks ago. Had the FFL send their copy out to them the same day. Over a week went by, called classic arms and they claimed to not have the FFL on file... actually, they claimed the FFL had expired. One, Classic Arms should have gotten in...

    AMD-65 or M10-545?

    Hey all. Trying to decide between these two rifles. AMD-65 fires the 7.62x39 and costs $100 less than the M10-545 which fires the 5.45x39. 5.45x39 is way cheaper, 7.62x39 is more readily available. I can hunt with either caliber. I'm leaning towards the AMD-65 but have a thing for the...

    I'm getting into handloading. One question.

    I've read the "Basics" at the top of the forum, but I have a basic question that wasn't covered in that sticky. What's the difference between primers? I plan on reloading pistol ammo almost exclusively, *may* get into reloading for my mosin eventually. But what's the real difference...

    Where is the surplus 7.62x25?

    Anybody know where any good surplus 7.62 Tok is? I haven't seen any lately... best price for quality new ammo I've seen is $18/50 rounds of S&B, but that is the same price as Federal 9BPLE ammo for 9mm! :banghead:

    7.62x25 Tokarev

    I know the American standard for this round is .308 bullet diameter, but I've heard quite a few people reporting (the majority, in fact now that I think about it) .312 diameter barrels, after slugging. Has anyone reloaded 7.62 Tok with a .312 diameter bullet? What recipe and velocity were you...

    Glock 36 magazines

    So, I've found two sources online of Glock 36 mags. One is Midway USA for $22 and the other is Botach Tactical for $20. Midway says they're factory mags, Botach eludes that they are but doesn't say it outright. Does anybody know for sure, or should I just spend the extra $2 a pop and go with...

    Winter Carry Weapon... .38 Spc, .357, .357 Mag, 10mm?

    I have a question for you guys. I am in the market for a winter carry weapon. I am weighing my options. I want, of course, the best terminal performance against heavy, thick winter clothing. This weapon will be carried in a pancake holster, so size isn't as big an issue as it is for my summer...
