the Reason for my stupid post Hello. Thanks for taking the time to reply. The reason for this dumb post is to see how rifle folks think vs. Handguns:Autoloaders think. This same question was asked there with the only change being I substituted "7.62" for "9mm" My contention is if one...

Always loaned my Dad anything he wanted. Usually about 1/2 my collection was at his place. He died and before I could get there his "church people" wiped him out. Even all the socks and underwear in the drawers, and all his shoes. I told their lawyer that those guns were "registered" to...

It's only been on 20 minutes but seems like 2 hours already.

".452, i have to take exception to your information in post #23: your exploding ported barrel is just fearmongering and has no basis in reality. some references here would be helpful to substantiate your claims. " I must have read that somewhere. I guess...

".452, i have to take exception to your information in post #23: barrel twist rate is not dependent on max velocity. twist rates are in the tens of thousands of rpms, not hundreds of thousands." Hi Murf. Here's the math I used. It is the simplified formula, there are other factors...

Warped, your opinion is noted. Not that I agree but noted. My answer was given for these reasons: In my 28 year LE career, the first half at least, all law enforcement officers in our jurisdiction were mandated to carry a .38 special revolver. That meant 6 shots on duty and usually 5...

+1 Roll crimp Buy a bullet with crimp groove, at slow velocities, about any bullet will do, but at magnum velocities buy hard-cast with a speed limit correct for the anticipated velocity. Read up on gas checks- many loads benefit from gas checks. I've shot a lot of .38's / .357 Mags...

"That said, it certainly wouldn't be my choice of defensive firearm where large agressive animals are the rule" Amen to that. You don't see .22's in Africa. In my day, when some one said Varmint Gun, they were probably talking .22-250, a hypervelocity .224 bullet. Deer Guns started...

Personally I prefer to concealed carry a .380 in civilization, sometimes even less. On the other hand if I need it for the purpose you mean, if I have to shoot it, I would prefer it to be a .454 or a #870 12 Ga. When NOT in civilization, I prefer to open carry my .454 with the #870 not...

Yes I too have decided after much testing on the Super Redhawk, the bobbed version with 5" barrel, model 5517 as my "working gun". The longer barreled version is a bit too heavy and not needed for my "work" (let's call that work- "large dangerous animal defense"). Now for hobby yes, the long...

I can only speak to .45 caliber but my personal max comfort level is with a 328 grain bullet with around 1300 fps out of a .45 Colt case, but Overall Length adjusted to limit its use to a .464 Casull gun. Here's why: Barrel twist rate design is dependent on max velocity to be fired through...

It's a heavy gun due to the blowback action. The company is 100% great about fixing any problems. I had one that failed to feed and they polished the ramp for me free- never another problem.\\ The magazine will fit back and forth between the handgun and carbine. Never had a single fail...

Are you loading them in huge quantities? If not the old fashioned dippers will get the job done just fine. Some folks might say "SLOW" but I say "THOUGHTFUL, DELIBERATE".

MechTech has been around for a while, and the product does work just fine. Originally they made a conversion for a 1911 that had wood stocks. I tried one and liked it and now kick myself for not still having it, because my taste does not go towards the plastic/black gun style. The advantage...

The turning over of the FFL BOOK is fact, I had to. Plus during a routine 3 day inspection of the FFL BOOK by an agent, and since I had to list all the guns on the premises in the BOOK including my own, they found one of my own handguns had been stolen and I had to find it and turn it in. The...

"It's all in the wording. " Amen to that. Half the time I can't figure out what I think I'm hearing and what they really mean.

What is your favorite 7.62mm JHP cartridge? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What is your favorite 7.62mm JHP cartridge? in regular only. not +P etc. thanks

If you mean the actual 9mm bullet-projectile it is a Hornady XTP 90 grain Jacketed Hollow Point.

Ditto that Bro, and I don't face or twit either.

Yes my favorite 9mm JHP cartridge is the 9mm Kurz. Did I misread the question?
