Took possession of it Friday afternoon, and after I took care of some business later in the day I took her home and stripped her down and cleaned her with BreakFree CLP. The fit and finish on that gun is just amazing. I had no experience with Dan Wesson before, but I was VERY impressed. Not...

...because very soon I'll be joining your ranks. :D :D :D I swung by my friendly local fun dealer a couple of weeks ago and asked him to get on findin' me a Razorback, and he ordered it for me yesterday. I already have one 10mm pistol, a Kimber Stainless Target II, and really like it. And I've...

Hey folks. Been reloading my 10mm for a bit, and so far it's been the only caliber I've done it for. I am about ready to branch out and start reloading .45acp as well. The powder I started out with for the 10mm was Accurate No. 9, which has turned out to be a great choice. Now, for the...

Hey y'all. As you may remember, I recently started rolling my own for the mighty 10mm Auto. Been a real fun ride so far. As of yet the only handloads I've put through it are around 200 rounds of 155-grain Hornady XTP, at about 1340-1350 fps on average. My question is for you, fellow 10mm 1911...

From the Central Kentucky News-Journal:

Latest column from Steven Greenhut of the Orange County (Calif.) Register: I saw this in yesterday's Houston Chronicle and was just nodding my head in agreement all the way through it. Greenhut might not have been meaning to pick on David Brooks, but Brooks and those who think like him make...

That's right, friends, I rolled some more 10mm last week on my day off, and this morning I took it out. For the record, one more time: 155 gr. Hornady XTP 14.3 gr. AA#9 1.250" OAL Firearm: Kimber Stainless Target II And to boot, I had a better setup for the chronograph this go-round --...

As detailed before, I made my first 10mm rounds early last week, and I worked up some more yesterday, using the same components & load. What I took: Bullet: 155-gr. Hornady XTP Powder: Accurate Arms No. 9 Load: Minimum, 14.3 grains Primer: CCI Large Pistol (not magnum) OAL: 1.250" Firearm...

Thoughts of a gun owner on the massacre at Virginia Tech

After spending the afternoon tinkering with my RCBS turret press and doing dry runs with the primer feeding system, about 5:15 yesterday afternoon I made my first 10mm rounds. The hardest part was getting the Uniflow powder measure to throw just the right charge...I'd throw a charge, weigh it...

So after shooting .45ACP for a couple of years and 10mm for a little over six months, I finally decided to take the plunge and get into the reloading hobby, with the RCBS Turret Press Deluxe Reloading Kit, case tumbler & Lyman calipers, topping it off for now with an RCBS 3-die set for 10mm. I...

Anybody got a gun that's brought 'em good luck, or am I the only even-slightly-superstitious one here? :D Maybe it's a weird question, I know, but I'm thinking that Springer Loaded 1911 I picked up toward the end of December brought me good luck. The day I picked it up I interviewed for a new...

in response to this... I was rather proud of myself...I was sorely tempted at first to go at her with both barrels. We'll see what she says...

I went to my friendly local FFL a couple of weeks back and asked him to get on finding me a parked Springfield Armory Loaded full-size 1911...and yesterday, I got a call from him saying it came in, finally, so I swung over, filled out the 4473 and picked her up late yesterday afternoon. I don't...

So I've been thinking some more about one of the justifications of the RKBA, and the Second Amendment specifically, the resistance of government tyranny. Many of the anti-gunners out there seem to think this is a flawed argument, as we all know. When they're not trying to paint those of us who...

http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/living/columnists/leonard_pitts/15745817.htm A few choice snippets... I really don't know what to say to any of this, but that it's a sad commentary on American journalism that dreck like this gets published in a major metropolitan daily and the person...

Well, more like two preliminary reports merged into one... So far 150 rounds have gone downrange through my new Kimber. First up, last Thursday after work, I hit the door with the only ammo I could get my hands on at the time, a box of Blazer 200-grain FMJ - the lone box Gander Mountain had in...

...from one of our friendly local gun stores, Shooters Supply in Beaumont, Texas. If you'll remember, about five weeks ago I ordered a Kimber Stainless Target II in 10mm, and as the weeks wore on, I started getting more and more, ah, impatient. Well, I got outta the shower yesterday right before...

Does anyone else here who leans to the right and the Republican Party feel like we're being discounted? I read many conservative blogs from time to time in addition to several newspapers, and the names that keep on popping up as the best chance to get the GOP nomination in 2008 are John McCain...

for my upcoming venture into the Wonderful World of 10mm? I recently sold my car and bought a brand-new truck. As luck would have it, I got a good price for the car and didn't have a down payment on the new truck and so I have a pretty good bit of cash in the bank, enough for another gun and a...
