I placed an order on 3/3/21 So we are past 16 weeks, still haven’t heard a thing from them.

My conclusion today is small rifle primers can be used in place of small pistol primers, if loading 38 special for revolvers. I reloaded 22 ea. Winchester brass cartridges, charged with 4.8 gr of W231, using 158 grn Berry hollow point bullets, using small rifle primers(CCI). and 22 ea. Using...

Looking for holster for sw 686 plus with 3” barrel. Any suggestions welcomed.

I clean all my pockets, I have had some primers not seat deep enough when I first started reloading...From then on I cleaned all my pockets. I guess if you doing a thousand at a time it is tiresome. But I rarely load more than 200 at one sitting so it it not a big thing. I use a pencil wire...

Thanks to “Walkalong” I got my w231 from 3rdgeneration tonight,,,

Good news! Replaced the recoil spring only. Shot 28ea. Federal 230 ball ammo and 7 reloads (Hornady fmj bullets in Winchester cases with Win 231 5.6 grns, typical reloads for me). Bent cases gone......!!, the spring replacement is a Wolff 16# recoil spring (#41916) which was 6 1/2” new, but...

I have a 92S and it is accurate, love this gun. I put in excess of 400 rounds the first day I got it, and it ate everything I put through it. Blazer, federal Remington. If an old Beretta is this good how great is a new version? I almost bought a new Beretta but an RIA tach II 1911 caught my eye...

The book by Joe Poyer, Model 1911 and 1911A1 has a good section on extractors. Referred as types 1,2, and 3. I have the type 1 (WWII) with the 20 degree on the face, type 2 (post WWII) the face is straight, the type 3 is more of a commercial extractor with an extended straight face. Which you...

Ok...thanks for the feedback! Here’s a little more info, the recoil spring Is 6” long, 30 coils. I have a type 1 ejector, in that it is not square like a type 3 but the face is at 20 degrees. It is a Colt 1911A1Pistol so I am reluctant to do anything that would change its’ uniqueness. So I...

Why are the cartridges bent and galled on my CMP 1911. Used Remington 230, ball ammo.
