    Which 10mm 1911?

    That’s the one I was after but but I ended up buying a RIA GI spec 10mm and it’s a truly great pistol. Period. Mine was $400 and I can’t recommend it enough. I would still like the tac ultra because I have shot a 9mm tac ultra and it’s an incredible pistol for the money. You can buy a better...

    Cross another one off the list.

    Mennonite Machine Gun? I know several mennonites, and they are liable to have the real deal machine gun. Them boys don’t play. They stay to themselves an d they protect themselves rather well. Very seldom do the police respond when the mennonites are victims of a crime because they don’t let...

    Taurus 445 44spl

    What’s your argument here? I literally know people who have picked up a piece of brass from a gunshow or range and decided to build out an entire set based entirely upon a free piece of brass, in such chambering that they never even knew existed. That’s how the 400 Corbon guns I have shot came...

    Pistol light out past the muzzle?

    Local PD has a few who have weapon lights. I talked to one and he is one of the swat officers. He intentionally put a light out behind the muzzle as a stand-off device.

    New toy Rossi R95

    What will you gain out of going to an AI chamber? I know it increases case capacity, and 30-30 has a long neck so that could really change things, but in a short barrel I’m wondering if it’s worth the work.

    Garbage like this realllllly annoys

    It definitely looks cool, but that’s about where it stops. No history, no quality at that price, no use in today’s world… just no.

    Should be simple

    I have a rifle with that setup and I could never get it to turn. I was putting more force on it than I should have and was concerned about bending the barrel or causing damage to the lug. It’s almost like it’s pressed in like a bearing race or something along those lines. Be careful with it.

    22ARC

    I struggle to see the point for a lot of the new stuff that’s coming out. This is one of those. Is it significantly better than the Valkyrie? I don’t have a Valk barrel, or an arc barrel either, so maybe I’m just missing out on something. I do want a superspeed small bore, but realistically I...

    Taurus 445 44spl

    The titanium guns bring a pretty solid penny. That seems CHEEEEP. Of course verify that, but in my book that one was worthy of the argument about un-necessary spending and whatnot.

    I bought a Pinto that doesn’t run…

    A .41 special built like a charter bulldog except not made by charter would be great. Seems right up the Taurus/Rossi alley. S&W would put it in a L frame and charge too much. Would be somewhere in the ballpark of a 10mm auto revolver. As a 10mm fan I would happily get down with that.

    I bought a Pinto that doesn’t run…

    There’s a butt for every seat. Not my thing visually but that’s a heck of a gun. Good combination of all the things. Right caliber, right barrel length, right everything, I’m just not sold on the two-tone thing for revolvers. If it came from the factory that way I would bet it has notable...

    How many have done this before?

    Yes. Not depriming, but trying to hold flat based bullets square enough to seat them. The pinch hard and fast.

    Beretta 71, Finally!

    That whole product line with the open top slides are great guns. Generally pretty soft shooting unless you’re getting into the tiniest of them and even then they are soft compared to similarly sized pistols of the same chambering. The one I want I haven’t seen in person for about a decade, and...

    30-30 loads.

    I do, but they just aren’t nearly as accurate. Accurate is fun. The fact that I’m loading less accurate rounds intentionally just doesn’t interest me and it’s just like loading cheap 9mm blasting ammo. Just not a whole lot of fun to load it.

    30-30 loads.

    No, single. The long pointy bullets don’t want to get along with the feeding mechanism in my rifle and it tends to hang up. I can use light for caliber pointy bullets, but I can’t use anything heavier than about 150gr without it causing issues. I havent taken the feeding contraption apart yet...
