never had this happen, was shooting and made a mistake on my run, so went to clear the gun. I dropped the mag, racked the slide to eject the live one and dry fired it at the ground. When the hammer fell the entire slide flew off the end of the frame! Plop, complete on the ground. I picked it...

I just got a carbine that takes glock mags and I want to fuel it up with a couple new mags. I have a few ets mags and they work, but I tend to like mags with metal lips so I’m looking at factory mags or any others that have metal. The only other I’ve seen is SGM, but they don’t seem common, or...

I've been using a couple scopes in 1-4 power on my comp AR with good success. Namely a Burris tac30 and an swfa 1-4 (non HD). They were both very nice and effective scopes but I felt like I'd like a little more mag and a FFP reticle because, well they are cool. I had briefly owned an HD swfa...

Heyo, I have a s&w N frame 25 that I'd like to refit a fiber optic front sight to. What are the options for this? I've included a pic of it, and it's 1/8" wide. Not sure what height I'd need or any other considerations, but I sure would love to have a nice bright dot up there. Thanks.

Dialed in a cam for powder check since I miss my powder cop so much, but no more stations means I couldn't use it. Came out pretty well.

I'm working up 748 for my match 223 load and wondered if magnum primers would be smart to use?

I want to buy 100 cases and I was thinking about milsurp once fired but then read that without collet sizing they cannot be sized by FL die. This puzzled me so I got looking for other brass. Premium brass like Norma and lapua is pretty expensive but Winchester is reasonable. Not great...

I have a compact 10-20 leupy that came with a bulky bag but I want something like a sock or maybe just some retained caps or shomething? I was thinking a neoprene sock like I use for my scopes, but somehow have it retained on the optic would be ideal. Here's what it looks like. Anyone know...

So I primed a large batch of 223 the other day and as usual a few had a little looseness to the pockets. I tossed one in to the bin and the primer fell out. Now, I noticed it was a bit loose, and I heard a strange sound when it hit the pile so I tried to find it and sure enough the primer fell...

This single stage must be the best one out there. Maybe not for every task but pretty much every task can be handled and with extreme precision and ease. It's heavy, smooth, highly adjustable, highly ambidextrous and adaptable, large and straight. It eats primers for lunch and disposes of...

Needed somethings to speed up my forming time on bigger runs of brass. This little mod has increased my forming speed by at least 50% and makes for a much better rhythm too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsJDojyOLr8

I've been going around with my progressive setup and have been fairly happy with the Redding pro die set for a few years. But I really like the Dillon set with the quick check clip removal system and most of all, the spring loaded depriming stem. Well I sold all my other dies for 45acp and had...

The mechanical nerd in me loves presses. I've hardly seen one I wouldn't want. I want one of every kind! I have so far: Lee reloader C press Lee classic cast SS Dillon BL550 Mec size master 12ga And the flagship, a LnL AP I can't justify owning another press, ever, because these will...

So I think I'm going to try a set of X dies for 308 and see if I like them. The reviews seem very positive. I know they have a specific starting trim length to work from. However I usually trim sized brass in my trim-it! motorized trimmer which indexes off the shoulder. I'm not sure if I...

My Redding set is labeled for both, but is it inherent?

Just for fun. Has a USB port to charge the lithium battery. Works great.

I've used many brands of dies at this point and I've liked features of different brands and appreciate them for different purposes. One question though, when we find an adjustment with Redding or rcbs dies that have a simple lock ring with set screw, what keeps the dies from loosening in the...

So, using the Hornady case activated powder setup is great. However changing between cases isn't as convenient as one would hope, because all cases are different in height. So I'm thinking the other day and wondering why they do it like they do. I'll try to explain. The powder measure is...

So, I drag my gf out shooting quite a bit. She has her own 10/22 and she's a good shot, but the everlasting shortage of 22lr ammo and the fact that all the ammo for my weapons is free (to her) means she doesn't get to shoot the rifle much. She's been wanting a pistol for a while, and I'm...
