    Would you take a 2 year old to a Gun show?

    x2 on the backpack carrier. I am a single dad, and started going to gun shows again when my daughter was old enough for the backpack carrier (younger than 1). She loved it, as something different to do. I saw plenty of strollers in use as well, and no real problems (the shows we go to are in...

    Guns for Long GunVault

    I had forgotten about this thread. I found one on ebay after posting above. It fits my Mossberg 500 like a glove, as long as the factory stock is on it. It is a clamshell type of a device, and comes with a mounting bracket that you mount to the wall, and there is a quick-release latch on the...

    Are Long GunVaults still available? I can't find them for sale anywhere, and Gunvault.com no longer lists them. Thanks and regards, Michael

    competions in NC

    I used to shoot IDPA regularly at the following (many already mentioned): Pitt County Wildlife Club http://www.pittcountywildlifeclub.20fr.com/index.html Don't think they're still officially IDPA, but I believe they are still running IDPA-style matches. E-mail me off-list at...

    Help Identifying Dillon SDB Dies

    Mike, Thanks for the suggestion, but I ALREADY ended up with an extra NIB set of 9mm dies (buying a complete semi-used reloading package). I keep planning to put my extra die sets on ebay, but never get around to it... You never know when you might break a shellplate on your primary set, and...

    Where Do You Handload Your Ammunition?

    In our last house, we had a 17x24 unfinished office/workshop; however it was still uninsulated (and in North Carolina), so I "temporarily" set up my reloading in a VERY small walk-in closet. I built a bench out of steel, with ¼" plate top surface, legs out of forklift overhead guard material...

    Make your own dummy rounds?

    I made some with the aforementioned caulked primer holes (seemed to be the most durable), and have also tried it with hot glue and pencil erasers in the primer holes. In place of bullets, I used trimmed-down electrical wire nuts, secured with hot glue. They are brightly colored to help...

    Help Identifying Dillon SDB Dies

    Thanks for the quick responses. I called Dillon, and the guy on the phone tried to tell me that 38 ACP was the same as 380 ACP, until I explained to him the simple fact that a 380 ACP case would rattle in the sizing die (and drop clean through). He then looked it up and confirmed that I had 38...

    Help Identifying Dillon SDB Dies

    I just bought some dies (a conversion kit) for my Dillon Square Deal B on ebay. They were supposed to be 380 ACP. The dies are all marked "38 ACP" or "38 A"; The shellplate is a #5, powder funnel "F", and buttons #3. Loaded 380 rounds drop straight through any of the dies. I suspect this die...

    Anybody try 115 gr in 380 ACP?

    Has anybody here tried loading 115 grain bullets in 380 ACP? I have read caveats in reloading manuals which warn about some 115 grain bullets not being full diameter where the crimp is made. The Rainier plated hollow points I use for 9x19 appear to be full diameter at the crimp point if I...
