I usually wear jeans. I have never tried an IWB holster. Most of the shirts I wear are tucked in. That may have to change. I am a pipe fitter and usually dress very casually. Dress up some on the weekends, but not a lot. I used to be a cop, back in the 80's and wore pancackes mostly...

Just bought a Sig P6 police trade in. This gun is a dream. I need a CCW holster. I need a good, versital holster for most situations. I prefer to carry on my belt. I would primarily use it for just general walking around in public. Any recommendations? Thanks, David

I understand you can get some really good deals on police dept. trade in guns. Where can these be found? Thanks, David

I am considering purchasing a C9 for ccw and a .45 for fun. I don't want to put alot into a gun. Can I have you opinion or a location where I can purchase similar firearms at an inexpensive price? Thanks

I am new at this. I just bought some Ranier 151 gr. copper plated bullets in 356 diameter at a show. The guy told me they were 9mm bullets. I cannot find any powder charge info for this weight and size. I have a Lee press with Lee 9mm dies. I am using W231 powder. Can you guys recommend a...

I just bought a NIB Lee 4 hole turret press, 750 Speer 9mm bullets, 2 Lee crimp dies and a 3 die .38/.357 set for $80.00. I think I did good. I have been gathering bits and pieces of equipment for months to start reloading. I am not familiar with a taper crimp die vs a factory crimp...

I have been looking on ebay for scales. I already have a postal scale here at home. Will it work as good as a beam scale? It weighs in gram and also kilo grams?

I really enjoy this site, but I would like to also get other opinions. I found THEFIRINGLINE and also found some of the same people. Are they one in the same basically, if not what is the difference? Can you guys also recommend othe reloading sites? Thanks, David

Kempf's sells a kit with a Blueberry vibratory tumbler, walnut media and sifter for $68.95. Are these tumblers any good? I was looking at the Lyman Turbo 1200 with auto flow for $81.99 at Midway.

Thanks for your responses so far. My wife and I shoot about 200 rds./mth. We both want to shoot a lot more. We are interested in practicing so we can start shooting IDPA matches. I also want to get handguns in .40 S&W and 45 ACP. I also want to get an M1 Carbine, AR-15 and an AK. We will...

After reading many threads, comparisons on line and talking to some people I have decided to go with the Hornady LnL AP because I am going to start with 9mm, but I will later reload for my 30-30 and 303. I know what I get with the press, but I don't know what else I need. I need a scale, which...

I have read several threads and articles about press types. Let me describe my situation and maybe you can simplify my decision. I currently have 2 9mm pistols, 1-- 30-30, 1-- 303 British and a 12 ga. shot gun. I am not a hunter, but I do want to aquire additional guns(ak, mini 14, m1...

Thanks, a lot for your responses. I love the way this gun shot right out of the box (38 rounds in the 10 ring from 7 yds.). I have confidence that i will get used to it with experience.
