    best 380 under 300$

    Any generation of the Ruger LCP. Mine happen to be Gen 1 and one is plain black and one is the 10th Anniversary Edition. Awesome little pistols. I had another all black Gen 1 but somebody wanted it bad so I reported it stolen.

    Buying 1 brick SPP online,,,

    I went to a gun show near Atlanta this past Sunday and met a vendor that gad LMRPs and they are like hens teeth around here so I made him an offer to trade 1000 LRPs and he said OK. We exchanged numbers and agreed to meet at his store some time this week. Looking at the tag on mine, I paid...

    questions for knife makers pertaining to cooling annealed steel.

    Best way without a bunch of equipment is to heat DARK red- like blood or crayon and stick it in some used glass bead blasting media and just forget about it and let it cool slowly. Next best is 400*F then 200*F oil. Old files are made of O-1 Tool Steel. Look all that tech data up on line or...

    Ruger 10/22 barrel suggestions

    I put one together today with the hammer forged Ruger barrel and a Ruger BX trigger. I did one similar to this a while back and am very happy with it. Maybe I've just been lucky but all my Ruger target barrels have been awesome and I even have 2 standard carbines that shoot .3 MOA (one of...

    Help me choose between two Ruger SAs.

    Well, nevermind then. :rofl: I'd still get that 41. 😉

    Help me choose between two Ruger SAs.

    Go with the 41 just because they will soon go like the Dodo bird. Get dies and brass. You can make anything else if you have to.. 44 ain't going anywhere. Ammo, dies and components will always be readily available. You can grab a 44 any time you want to. I'd jump on that 41.

    I'm glad you told me that. I've been thinking it was a BP for all these years because the nomenclature 30 and 30 together just seemed to indicate black powder because of all the other something - something was for caliber + grains of black powder.. They say you learn something new every day...

    Late to the thread but I got to throw 30- 30 Winchester in there. Another one that morphed from a black powder cartridge. I've loaded some 30- 30 and 7.62X54R with real black powder that I made just to see if it would work. It does.;) Smokes a LOT tho.

    Just finished up a new one today. Got everything, including eye relief set, rings just snug. Got to level and plumb line the vertical cross hair and run it in. Put a BX trigger in there before I even fired it. I have BX triggers in all my 10- 22's so they all pull at 2 1/2- 2 3/4 pounds. A good...
