Rivet, rivet.
Me too.I'm real happy shooting a 124 grainer at 1350fps in the super
Hell yes. I’m thinking it’d be a sweet cartridge in a SA XDs.I'm thinking I like the idea of the super more and more. Is it just me, or wouldn't that be a sweet cartridge in a carbine?
I am too. There are practically no guns made for it either. I'd have thought one of the semi-custom 1911 makers would embrace the round and own the niche.I am surprised that 9x23mm Winchester is not more popular.
I keep hoping I'll stumble across an old .38 Super P220.
This is NOT one of the guns I load to approx. 1500 FPS. More like 950 FPS

You can safely get a 124 gr. bullet at 1400 fps from a 5" barrel from the 38 Super. This is the lower level of the 357 Magnum from a 4" barrel (which usually isn't 1400 fps but somewhere above 1300 fps).
That's the 1903 pocket hammer right? From what I understand, all of the posters for the movie Casablanca shows Bogart with a 1911, but he was such a small guy in reality, they gave him a Colt Pocket Hammer as it was more his scaleView attachment 868431 View attachment 868432
I've read that somewhere too, and that it was his idea. He was apparently worried that his hands would look too small. Vanity, thy name is Bogart. Well, he succeeded, but what he didn't realize that the 1903 also resulted in his butt looking too big.That's the 1903 pocket hammer right?

Now I have to watch Casablanca again, and pay closer attention this time
