    Not Ideal, But Ordered some 38 Super Bullets

    I am not necessarily desperate, but indications are that I will be if there’s no improvement in product availability, so as Mick Jagger sang, You can’t always get what you want! I ordered 1000 bullets, 38 Super, 121gr JHP .356” diameter. I’m guessing if I can load Berry’s plated, which are .356”...

    First 1911, Gangster style

    Since I have been getting more and more into guns and building up my collection of them. I knew I had to have a 1911, but since I’m a younging and as some of y’all older gents know. We have to be different and unique about things. So a .45 wouldn’t just do ( don’t worry, still gonna get one!) I...

    A Tale of Two Colts

    In my thread asking for feedback on the Colt Delta Elite, forum member bannockburn asked me to do some photos and a range review of my pair of Colt Competition Models. It's taken me a little longer than I though it might, but I'm happy to oblige! First up, the stainless Colt Competition in .38...

    Dan Wesson Moon Clip conversion - 9mm/38 Super or 38 Short Colt?

    Hi guys, I started this thread a couple of days ago opening up my quest for a 9mm or similar revolver for quick moon clip reloads. Lots of good advice was given. I talked to Tom at TK Custom and he said he could convert Dan Wesson 15-2 cylinders to accept moon clips, and/or rechamber for...

    Moon clip revolver - 9mm / 38 Super / 38 Short Colt?

    Last summer I took up in earnest my quest for a moon clip revolver for general shooting and maybe some slightly-competitive action shooting. I started this thread asking about 9mm and 45 ACP revolvers, with my main condition being that I didn't want a stainless steel finish. Settled on the S&W...

    Loading the 38 Super

    Hello all I have been loading my 38 super with 13.8 gn of lilgun under a 124 gn hollow point to get my velocity at about 1340 fps which I need to keep me shooting in the major power factor group. My question is does anyone know of a comparable powder that might not require as much to get the...
