    Clean your guns in a DISHWASHER?!

    Remember that a diswasher cleans by abrasion.. kind of like a weak sand blasting..

    Springfield XD ???s

    It is illegal to use 40 mags in your XD-9. Can someone expand on this for me ?

    Springfield XD ???s

    The grip safety does not stop someone from pulling the trigger when the pistol is in their hand. Isn't it a safe assumption that if you are gripping the pistol, and squeeze the trigger that a discharge is your intent ?

    XD or glock

    Shoot a box through each first, then decide. I did, and am a very happy XD-9 owner..

    loadmaster set-up

    i sent mine back to midway. i think they were used to it, they took it back, no questions asked. Same for me.. The loadmaster setup that finally worked for me was back in the box, and out the door back to Midway.. The powder and case feeding mechanisms once adjusted worked very well. But the...

    Lee Hand Primer = No Federal Primers?

    more sensitive. There was a recent thread here or on Glocktalk concerning someone who recently had a tray full of Federal primers blow up on him while using a Lee Loadmaster. Bottom line, follow the manufacturer's recommendations..

    How good are Promag mags?

    from my experience, you question should be "How bad are Promag mags?". I found them to be junk, a total waste of money..

    Lee progressive

    Lee is the Toyota Corrolla and the Dillion product is like an Acura. Bad analogy.. In reloading it is all about the journey.. any press can throw some components together and make a round. But doing it safely, predictably and repeatedly is the journey.. Remember, the press will pay for...

    Lee progressive

    imho, nope. I tried a Lee but it was a very unsafe press. The attention you spend looking out for the press is attention that should be spent on the task at hand, loading safe, reliable ammo. Sent the pos back after a couple of weeks. Why buy junk when for a little more you can get a decent press ?

    What kind of protection while reloading?

    I wear safety glasses, AND a condom..

    Springfield XD's (want opinions)

    btw, XD40 mags can be used in the 9, which gives you a 16 shot capacity..

    Springfield XD's (want opinions)

    I've had mine for a while now. The grip safety is nice because you never really notice it's there.. The main reason I bought the XD, I was looking for a backup to my Sig and went out shopping, and trigger feel was paramount. Looked at Glocks and CZ but imho the XD has a superior trigger...

    Manual Safety-Yes or No

    A manual safety in a modern firearm is little more than a security blanket for those who can't remember to leave their finger outside of the trigget guard ?

    Lee Loadmaster

    Had one but sent it back for a refund and used the credit for a Hornady Lnl AP... got tired of futzing with the Lee.. Per the prowder drop, I would check and recheck your adjustments as I found this was the one thing that worked reliably on this press. Is the chain properly tensioned ? On the...

    good holster for XD 40

    I use a Fobus and am happy with it. If you want quality leather, then I recommend Kramer... I also have found that a leather holster for a Sig 229 can be made to fit an XD quite easily..

    Any other XD fans here?

    I also am an XD fan. I have gone shopping twice for the Glock I have always wanted, the first time came home with a Sig 229 and the second with an XD 9. Have never look back either... Am very pleased with the performance of both..
