    Autoloader vs Revolvers...

    I chose both. Each have their respective pros and cons. I like the versatility of revolvers for various calibers or loads in each respective model, such as 454 Casull and 45 Colt or 357 Magnum, 38 +P and 38 Special. I do favor capacity, ease of reloading, and ease of use of a semiautomatic.

    How Do You Prioritize The Qualities That Are Important When Buying A Handgun?

    For home defense, I find reliability and capacity to be important. Any revolver, shotgun and rifle will work. For concealed carry, I’ll take reliability, availability of holsters, capacity and practicality. Many pistols I have will work, particularly in the Glock variety. For revolvers...

    I bought a shockwave

    I acquired one on a trade, and it had a brace. I found the brace to be bulky so I acquired a Birdshead Grip. I tried various rounds, and I found low recoil 00 to be comfortable for handling. I attached a side saddle to it, along with a scabbard. I may put the brace, back onto it...one day.

    CAA GEAR Micro Roni Stabilizer: Suppressor Host Mod

    I just saw your question. I still think you’d have to fiddle with the shroud

    Chiappa Rhino 30DS

    Chiappa Rhino 60-DS 6 round 357 Magnum This is quite light for its size. The frame is aluminum which is surprising. The cocking mechanism takes some getting used to since It doesn’t stay back. There is a cocked indicator, though. In double action, which is how I shoot always, the trigger...

    Red dot for GP100

    You have a couple of options. I use a Weigand Rail on my revolvers with red dots. I have used Primary Arms Advanced Micro Red dots, Ultradot Matchdot or even a Vortex Venom. I also have used Aimpoint H1 and T1 red dots. Honestly, my Primary Arms Advanced Rotary red dots have withstood 500...

    Question about using other dies in a Dillon 550

    Background I bought a Dillon 550C for reloading 40 S&W to make subsonic ammunition for my Keltec Sub 2000 (Sub 2K) with a Suppressor. Turns out, I cannot find a lighter recoil spring to tune the rifle for reliability feeding. I single stage my 454 Casull, 460 Magnum, and 500 Magnum on a...

    9mm Glock Mag Atheris Rifle Co AR Pistol

    Since I can customize an AR Pistol with a trigger, folding adapter, and SBA Tactical SBA3 Pistol Brace I chose the pistol. The CZ was my next choice but the safety was awkward, the trigger was junk. The MPX magazines are expensive. I’d still need the guard changed for a suppressor...

    Would like to build a 9mm version of sig Rattler

    True. I did heavy modifications to make mine work. I used a 10” IGB Austria barrel, used a Dremel on the CAA Gear Micro Roni Stabilizer and changed out recoil springs.

    So, I picked up this Glock 19......

    I went to the Glock store and acquired 15 and 13# springs. 15 lb works the best for me.

    Big bore dilemma.

    Arthritis develops and it can be debilitating. Trust me. I’m a radiologist. It’s not worth it. I have 3 454 Casull (Alaskan, Toklat and SRH), a 460xvr, a 500 Magnum (5”). If you reload, it doesn’t take much to get into a 500 Magnum. It has one of the widest range of loads, from 500...

    Trijicon suppressor height sights work and clear your RDS . Will you be shooting a suppressor? Depending upon the load, you may need to consider different recoil springs. SilencerCo threaded barrels are solid. Check out Brownells. Just so you know, the threaded barrels work across Gen...

    Suppressor question

    I doubt that the sound difference would be significant enough to tell. Getting a suppressor that is multicaliber is better than a dedicated one for one caliber. Mine is for a 45 ACP that has adapters for 9 mm and 40 S&W. It works on pistols or carbines. You need to research ammunition as...

    Your Favorite Semi-Auto Pistol Caliber and Why

    For concealed carry, the 9 mm is what I do. The 40 S&W is a very close second, though, I practice a lot more with 9mm.
