Looked at the LCRx 3" .38 Special at a local gun store. Really an exceptionally nice handling gun for my wife, especially the real sights. The only doubt was the white insert front sight blade, a fiber-optic or other might be easier to see against a dark target. Anyone know if this front blade...

Has anyone handled this newly announced Ruger with the 3" barrel and adjustable sights? I've had a hankering for such a small-frame .38 since handling the similarly equipped limited edition Chiefs Special at a gun show, but I wasn't about to pop the $1200 the collector wanted for it. My wife's...

Watched the first few episodes of the fantasy drama 'Intruders', and realized the enforcer/assassin Richard is toting an Arsenal twin-barrel .45 1911. They don't make any deal of it, it only stands out when seen from the business end. I guess the movie prop shop just wanted an excuse for getting...

A quote from an AR manufacturer rep claimed the military was backing off from the .300 Blackout because of instances of troops firing the cartridge in 5.56 rifles. Is this possible? Anybody have a sample round to try chambering it? Please DON't try firing it!

In the November American Rifleman, on page 106, an example of why 'factory load' doesn't always mean safe. The author had been test firing the new Remington 783 for accuracy and function. After trying two types of .30-06 factory loads, he switched to a third, 180gr. Factory loading. On the first...

From the 4/15/2012 Chicago Tribune: "A Nevada man got himself arrested Saturday night after acknowledging to Greyhound security officers that he did indeed have weapons and ammunition in his luggage, police said. About 7:30 p.m. Saturday, as part of a routine security inquiry to all...

“CTD Blogger” posted a BVAC notice that “Due to numerous customer requests for the BVAC 10MM to reach maximum velocity, BVAC had changed the load to 1250 fps January 1st 2012 to March 1st 2012.” However, BVAC noted that “In doing so, we have seen signs of case failures in unsupported...

Been seeing a lot of posts here about incidents of new cases failing, especially in 10mm Auto and .223. I suspect that the run over the last couple of years on ammo and components has lead manufacturers to speed up production to the point that quality suffers. A further factor, that I suspected...

I picked up some Remington 165gr. Gold Saber bullets to try out in my 10mm. Does anyone have experience loading full power loads with this bullet with Blue Dot? I'd work off of the data for 155gr. and 180gr. XTP's to get an approximation, but I'm concerned about the different bore friction due...
