I've been thinking about doing something other than putting holes in paper targets. There's a club not far from me that has IDPA matches every month. I have just started reading about the rules and what is involved in the sport as it sounds like a lot of fun. I plan to attend a couple of...

I went to the range yesterday and found a bunch of 9mm brass that looked like this. What causes this? Oversized chamber? The brass also feels scored just next to the black stripes. I tossed a few in the tumbler and this picture is after an hour in corn cob media.

This is my nightstand gun and I think I finally have it to where I want it. I added the Streamlight a little while back along with a Powder River trigger kit. I took it to the range last week and was wanting a pearce mag extension. I picked one of those up as well as the Talon grips. I also put...

I've been looking to add to my carry collection lately and after handling the S&W Shield in 9mm, I decided that I wanted one. So I went to the LGS tonight to pick one up and started to get the revolver itch as well. I had a S&W model 620 a while back and sold it to fund a different purchase. I...

I was hoping to find out from some of the experts here about this lead. I am in the middle of a demo job that was a doctors office. We have to rip down some walls and one room has lead sheets under the drywall. This was the xray room. So far I would approximate that I have about 600 lbs. of...

I bought a Kimber Super Carry Pro a while back and I really like it. It was a toss up between it and the CDP. I'm glad I went with the SCP because I love the rounded butt. I do find myself really drawn to the color scheme of the CDP though. So I was wondering if it is possible to have the frame...

A short time ago I picked up a standard frame 1100 in 20 guage. I have since torn it down and started to refinish it. So far I have completed the stock. I stripped it down with a lot of chemical stripper, that Remington finish is tough! Then I sanded, down to 400 and filled the grain. After...

I went to a gun show this past weekend, and I picked up a used 20 ga. 1100 for, what I thought was, a good price. I paid $320.00 for it, but it needs a little TLC. My wife wants to try sporting clays in the spring, and I would like to get the gun looking nice for her. Before I dump anything in...

I recently got a new camera and figured it would be fun to take a few pics of my toys. Kimber Stainless Target II, .45 ACP, Carbon Creations grip panels, extended slide release, Ed Brown Snakeskin MSH. My favorite gun in the safe. Kimber .22 Rimfire, Hogue wraparound grips, my wife's...

Well, for anyone interested, I settled on a final load for my Kahr P380 this afternoon. Since Santa left me some 95 gr. FMJ bullets under the tree, I have been wanting to get out to the range and try the loads I worked up. I used Titegroup, Bullseye, and W231 and I made 3 different loads for...

Well, I pulled the trigger on what I thought was a good deal on Ebay. A used MEC sizemaster for $129, with shipping, $143 and change. Judging by the pictures and the sellers feedback, it seemed like a pretty good value. I have been wanting to add a 12 gauge reloader next to my LNL. Now to start...

Well about 2 months ago I purchased a new Kahr P380 to go with my new Concealed Carry Permit. Unfortunately the slide kept locking back prematurely. I made sure I was not limp-wristing it, I tried different types of ammo, I even tried filing the slide stop a little, but to no avail. I called...
