More HK .45 chrono data follows. I'm playing with match and full power loads. Gun: USP45f Barrel: 4.41" Bullet: 200gr jacketed flat point Montana Gold OAL: 1.175" Primer: Winchester WLP Temp: Approx. 60 AA #5 7.7gr 794.0 FPS 158.8 PF 7.9gr 816.7 FPS 163.3 PF 8.1gr...

I'm loading .45 on a Dillon 550, using Dillon dies. About half, maybe a bit more, of my sized rounds (even if I just run them through the sizing die, then check them) don't insert all the way into a chamber check. They slide right in up to the area just above the rim, then bind. They still...

I recently chrono'd some rounds from my USP45, and thought I'd share... WARNING: Some of this data is above book. Use at your own risk! The gun is a USP45, 4.41" barrel. Temp was about 75f. Mixed brass, 230gr Montana Gold FMJ bullets, OAL of 1.255". AA No. 5 7.5gr 687.2 FPS...

I just got my old M&P back from the smith - I picked it up cheap, as it was out of time. It's old and not in fantastic shape, but I needed an old Smith to go with my 1942 Colt Commando revolver. The serial number is 9267xx - when was it made?

I need speedloaders for a Colt Commando (military version of the Official Police). I don't like HKS, much preferring the Safariland Comp II. The Comp II is currently available for the Trooper, Mk III, Mk V, or a different model for the Python. I beleive the Trooper is the same size...

I'm considering fiber optic sights for my competition USP (I carry a USP on duty, too, so I don't want to use a different pistol) for the upcoming IPSC season, but I need some help. Who makes 'em for the USP? I'd need a nice thin front blade, and, if sturdy, an adjustable rear. Barring...

I've posted this on 1911forum, but some competitors may not frequent there... Anyone in Colorado willing to take an IPSC/3 Gun newbie under their wing? If so, please e-mail, PM, or post here. Details/questions follow. *** I'm finally getting the seniority on the job to get some...

Myself and Climb14er are going to meet at the Silver Bullet range, 5901 W. 38th, Monday at about 5pm. He's going to try my PM9 before he buys, and just some target practice. For those that haven't been, it's a small range (six bays?), $12 an hour or as long as you like if others aren't...

I picked up a Colt Cobra last week, dated to 1952 by the guys in the Colt forum. Basically a Detective Special with an alloy frame. This thing was obviously carried a lot, as it has considerable finish wear. Apparently shot little, as the lockup is good and the bore is perfect, and there was...

...and 180B. Seems like a nice little rifle - uses AR15 magazines and fire control, different gas system, very light. Please, let's not stoop to bashing the AR15 - I know about all of the suppossed problems, and have used it successfully for years. Anyone have both? What do you think?

After getting a new toy, I checked the gap on all my revolvers. My backup 642 is at .007". Is this out of spec? Should I call S&W? It isn't the most accurate piece, but I don't practice much with it due to it's backup nature. I'm a little disappointed, and I know that newer Smiths CAN be...

I just picked up another 19, and with the "Revolver Checkout" by Jim March, I made sure it's a nice one. This one has a 4" barrel, cylinder gap at .003", timing good, shot little and carried never, EXTREMELY nice trigger (much better than the 6" 19 I got about a year ago), and very tight...

What's the going price for a 19 in excellent condition? I found a very nice 4" today, tight as a bank vault, and I'm tempted. The price seems high at $380 if I recall correctly, but I think I can talk him down. I've already got a 6" I don't need, and it needs some company now that it's...

I bought my dad a 6" 19 for Christmas, and it needs an action job. Everything is tight and nice, but the trigger isn't nearly as nice as it could be. Anyone have experience with QPR in Denver/Aurora?

Those of you with magazine extentions may want to "bump" check them. My potentially embarrasing story follows: I've an 870 Police model with rifle sights, which I carry in my car on duty. I had a Tac-Star extention with the front sling mount that goes between the magazine tube and extention...
