    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    <Deleted Insults> Some notes: Varying recoil spring rates of a Glock 29 will vary the amount of pressure force that resists the rearward force of the slide - The problem of this of course is that it increases the force in which the slide returns to battery - which is why a variable rate...

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    You obviously don't know what you're talking about. I'll tell you why I say that: Once you work up 10mm loads to approximately the max SAAMI pressure for that cartridge, the 20# spring will no longer work in your pistol. The pistol will fire the first round, it will fail to extract the...

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    I already promised I would produce a video of this with my firing the hottest loads I am able to stand with it. BLUEYES: Thank you.

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    It is not going to be 50AE power...but it's probably going to feel like the equivalent of a .45/70 chambered in a Desert eagle, from an energy to size of frame ratio perspective. The gun will handle it - particularly if the recoil system is designed correctly. This would probably not work on...

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    You guys apparently do not have good reading comprehension. I clearly stated that it was not a 10mm chambering. I will not discuss the chambering associated with this project, since that is not up for discussion at this time. I can appreciate concerns regarding the fear of my breaking a...

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    Guys, limiting the distance the brass eject is NOT the primary purpose of going with a higher rate spring. The primary purpose is to absorb recoil of the SERIOUS rounds I will be firing in this pistol - think along the lines of the .460 Rowland. It's not .460 Rowland, but it will certainly...

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    Sam - Thank you. I appreciate your point regarding the request for serious answers only. Obviously, one doesn't need a recoil spring for a T/C encore (I've owned one in the past) and while I can appreciate the humor of duct taping two 20# springs together, that's probably not going to work...

    Serious recoil springs for serious recoil.

    Looking for a 40# recoil spring for a Glock G29. Anyone know where I can find such a high rate spring system? Most of the big name gun spring companies only have 23# max available for this gun. Thanks, TW

    Reloading 40SW

    I am considering using a 10mm to 40 conversion barrel in my G29 and loading up 200 gr. xtps in to around 1600 fps. In other words, realistic .41 S&W power. Now I might have to get serious with recoil springs on my gun. Right now it only has 23# wolf in it and the 10mm @ mid 1200 fps loads...

    Reloading 40SW

    Clark, Did you ever find a recoil spring that had a high enough rate to resist the force of those hotter loads - and do you have any idea what the rate was? 35-40 lbs. or so maybe?

    The latest issue of "Rifleman" with the Ted Nugent interview

    ...and another thing. The NRA doesn't always support the second amendment, either. They support what their elitist executives support - and that's as far as they go. If they really supported the second amendment there would not be so many federal laws that contradict it - and there...

    The latest issue of "Rifleman" with the Ted Nugent interview

    Ted Nugent is a blow-hard deleted - <Sam> He might have some good points every once in a while, but he's basically an arrogant jerk with a lot of money that he got from being a very popular semi-talented musician in the late 70s and 80s. The bottom line is HE thinks he is more intelligent than...

    Loading .40 s&w

    Clark: If you wrote a book, I would buy one. If you sold aftermarket barrels, I would buy one. Costs within reason, of course. ;)

    Gunbroker vs. Gunsamerica

    I am a very happy and satisfied customer of Gunbroker.com and a very dissatisfied and unhappy former and never again customer of gunsamerica.com. Gunbroker rocks - gunsamerica is amateurish and I would recommend nobody ever go there.

    My custom kimber hi cap: VIDEO

    That is correct. The frame was built by Bul. The slide and several other parts by Kimber - but the entire thing was marketed and sold as a Kimber pistol. The only thing I have modified is the front portion of the trigger (it used to be square - I rounded it) and I added the light rail. The...

    My custom kimber hi cap: VIDEO

    Davidsdivad: Some people get a little paranoid about gun safety. It's okay - better too safe than careless. atlbis: I understand your criticism, but as Davidsdivad pointed out, there was no mag in the gun, the chamber is open and no round in the tube the camera lady (my wife) and I were both...

    Ok, so not the greatest acting - but it wasn't acting at all: just off the cuff to show how speedy and reliable this gun is to potential buyers (the gun is for sale on gunbroker) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mnoO70P-JI Let me know what you all think.

    Apparently riot gun for wilderness survival = fail

    I find this thread funny. Folks, it's not about the gun. In fact, you can harvest grizzly bears without a gun. I didn't even see the backpack, but based on any descriptions I read on here, it's WAY too big. Backpack in Alaska in WINTER shouldn't weigh 50#, and that includes extra...
