    Reloading presses... I got questions.

    I have a Hornady lock n load single, Dillon 650 and a Dillon 1050. The 1050 starts at $1800 and it serves my needs very well. Actually, all 3 of my presses work well. But I use them differently. I have worn out parts on my Dillon 650 press and they happily replace parts at no charge. I...

    Show us your stack!

    That's how I organize things, right out in the open on the floor. It drives my wife nuts. I guess it depends on what your needs are for ammo. That may be sufficient or it might not. I'm not going to post what is on hand in my house. Generally, I keep two years worth of ammo on hand and two...

    Check out Jim Owens at jarheadtop.com is that how you want to compete? I bought mine to shoot the Garand match at Camp Perry, first weekend in August. Always enjoy this match, even if it rains.

    "Carry" .45's: single or double stack, slim, light, etc.

    I'm a big fan of my Sig RCS, officer/commander hybrid. I did a little trigger work on it and now I dont mind the series 2 safety. Springfield EMP is also one of my favorite carry guns. I had to change out the night sights. I really like the trijicon white outline front sight on it now...

    Renaming the AR15 and other "Assault Rifles"

    All of mine are rifles or carbines. Some are battle rifles and others are sport rifles. None of them have ever assaulted, but I'm sure they will if required.

    Which Glock Gen do you recommend?

    I really like the gen4 in a carry gun, 26/27/19/23 the smaller grip works well for me. My gen3 17, 34 and 35 are fine just the way they are. Used for competition only. Several mods including larger mag releases. I was happy to trade in my gen1 17 for a gen3, even though I carried it for years...

    Tapper crimp seating die question

    Don't worry about trimming 9mm brass. Few straight walled cartridges need trimming. Thats correct, you will see shavings or crushing a portion of the case mouth. It will feel different when seating the bullet compared to a good seat. Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 4

    Hammer spring screw, do i need to tighten all the way

    The topic was just the screw, not how to do a trigger job. Replacing (or cutting) springs, cutting the strain screw, stoning, polishing and a few other things make a trigger job. If trigger pull drops much below 7 pounds you will only be able to launch ammo with federal primers. Some of...

    Hammer spring screw, do i need to tighten all the way

    It should always be ttight. But nothing says you can't shorten the screw to reduce spring tension a bit. Take off material slowly and test often. I usually buy a replacement screw before adjuting the length of the strain screw.

    Need the kind of mental help only a THR reloader can provide

    I remember turning my head and closing my eyes before squeezing off my first reload test round. It's natural to be concerned about the quality and safety of your rounds. Probably healthy too. Sounds like you need to shoot some and find out if you are getting the performance you expected...

    When do you NOT carry a firearm?

    Never heard this before and I don't see how the restaurant could become a school simply by the group of people dining at the time. I wouldn't change my behavior one bit for this scenario. A lot of things would have to go horribly wrong in that restaurant before anyone would know I was armed.

    When do you NOT carry a firearm?

    I can't carry at my day job. But I can at my other jobs, so I do. I don't go places that I can't legally carry. The pistol I carried during the day goes on the headboard when asleep.

    Need opinions....Carry pistol

    Your glock and all others glocks have 3 safeties. They don't need a safety like a double action Sig does. Look into the design of the guns, it will help you understand why certain types of safeties are on a handgun. It usually has to do with stored kinetic energy in a spring and to...

    Mandatory BG checks on ALL sales lead to registration of all guns

    FFL holders don't get any details when they run a check. The result is basically pass (proceed) or fail (deny). Their access to information in the database should not be compared to the access of LEO.
