    Marine Special Operation Command Order 4000 Colt Rail Guns

    We are forgetting only MARSOC is getting these, not the entire Marine Corps. Recon has been carrying 1911s forever so it's a no brainer their "next of kin" gets them too. The Beretta M9s we had were garbage and I can tell you first hand the effectiveness of a 9mm ball round. And as lucky as I...

    Another Finn Mosin in the house

    Toivo, I have to ask if you have any family in MI? Haha. Us Finns are all over up there, I'm a Harvala which is family with Ruusis and many Koskis. I am in the process of collecting Finnish firearms because of my family's heritage and history. I can't get enough of em.

    Fully auto and failures...

    The 240G I carried would not run without lube and being properly cleaned. Never had a squib since it was all military ammo but I did have some internal parts break, and I went through a ton of barrels. Mk19s will not run without LSA either, you can pee in them, dump water in them or even...

    Take a look at my freshly refinished "Royal Blue" Colt 1991A1 Compact Clark Meltdown

    I need my Ruger mark 2 done like that. But I don't think I'd want to shoot it anymore haha.

    Finally drank the blue Kool-aid.

    I could have built all the brackets myself as well but I had the money set aside for this so I just got their stuff. Now I just need to expand my caliber selection. Anybody have any kits they want to get rid of? Haha.

    problems with bullseye metering

    I use BE for all my pistol loads and it is close enough. 4.3gns for a 180gn lead .40S&W. My Dillon will barely if at all deviate, maybe .1 and being that I'm under the max load by a bit I'm fine with that. For .45ACP I've gone up to 5.3gns behind a 200gn lead blob, my FNP 45 liked that quite...

    Finally drank the blue Kool-aid.

    Yea I tried a few rounds with the factory round ball handle and after a while it bothers my hand, just like the one on the Lee did. I switched them out and it's much better.

    Finally drank the blue Kool-aid.

    Yea so far I am happy with it. I've loaded about 500 .40 with it and they are all exactly dead on COAL and powder charge. Impressive.

    Finally drank the blue Kool-aid.

    I did get a few upgrades on it, might as well. It replaced a Lee Loadmaster, the lee worked good I just outgrew it. Now I need to get the other calibers on this and I'm ready to go.

    Reloadable 45 ACP Brass?

    Cleaning rod with a 12ga bore brush. From muzzle to chamber, pushed it out.

    Reloadable 45 ACP Brass?

    Stay away from aguila or whatever, it has the cannuleure that will become the weak spot and then leave half ofnthenbrass in the chamber. As me how I know. Terrible iPod picture.

    American Classic 1911

    I just picked one up the other week and I love it. I got mine for $325 out the door so I can't complain. I added a WC full length guide rod, match trigger and polished the barrel and sear/disconnector and it runs perfectly. It has eaten anything I have fed it so far and is very accurate. I use...

    Fingerprint Cards?

    What happens if you forget to put the address of the agency that fingerprinted you on the cards? They were signed by the official but no address. How screwed am I?

    XD questions

    I own quite a few XDs, These are just about my favorite handguns. My XD40 doesn't like SWCs so I just don't load them, I stick round nose or flat nose and they shoot fine.

    Help me pick which one.

    The only reason for buying a Charles daly is the price. And this is old enough there would be no warranty anyway, and Charles daly just came back into business under trans world firearms out of Harrisburg PA again. It was still made in Philippines and imported under KBI so for parts and specs I...

    Help me pick which one.

    Yea I keep thinking 1911 since I don't have any I actually shoot. I do need variety and I need a new carry gun and something I don't have to worry about. I have a lot of expire nice with 1911s and can shoot them fairly well, and I already have a hammer .45 (FNP-45Tac) even thou a 1911 is a far...

    Help me pick which one.

    XD .45 or Charles Daly 1911. I'm torn. Which one? The XD is about $40 cheaper and comes with 4 mags and all the XD gear. The Charles Daly only has one mag and but has a brand new barrel and some cosmetic issues. Both are .45s obviously, I already have a bunch of XDs but never can have enough...
