I recently received my new Milt Sparks Versa Max-2 holster for my Springer 1911 in the mail. I also have a COM 3 by Eric Larson of H. B. E. Specialty Leatherworks for my XD-9. I am very pleased with my COM 3 but wanted to try the VM-2 to see if all the high opinions of the VM-2 on this forum and...

I am considering buying a Dillon 550B to reload .45ACP. I've seen estimates of 400-500 rounds per hour with this press with some of the key accessories. My question is, how long will it really take to process the rounds when considering all steps of the process? This includes not just those...

I recently bought a Competitive Edge Dynamics CED8000 timer. While I have never had another timer and, therefore, have no standard for comparison, this time rates an “A†in my book. It is simple to use, has many desirable features and is easy to read in bright sunlight. It has performed...

:D I picked up my new Springfield Black Stainless Loaded 1911-A1 (PX9152L) this morning and am ecstatically happy with it. This pistol is an absolute beauty with its dark gray flat surfaces and the black oxide (?) accents. It is almost too pretty to shoot! :cool: After field stripping it...

I want to buy a .45 cal 1911 style pistol for USPSA Limited 10 competition with a 5†barrel. My budget is $1000. I’ve narrowed my choices to the following (all prices are shipped to my local FFL): Kimber Eclipse Target II – $965 Smith and Wesson Model SW1911DK Doug Koenig – $930...

I have a chance to buy a used S&W 1911 SC that appears to be in excellent condition. It is at my local gun shop. They claim it was traded by one of their "regulars" and has about 500 rounds through it. They want $675 but I can probably get another $25 off. It comes with one mag. What are...

I've now had my Springfield Arms XD-9 Bi-Tone for a month. During that time I have put nearly 2200 rounds through it. It's digested Winchester Ranger T's, Federal Hydrashok and WWB JHPs. These were 124 gr +P, 147 gr and 115 gr respectively. All fed without a hitch. For the practice range, I...

Has anyone else noticed the bonus in each Wally World 9mm 115gr FMJ Value Pack? I buy these routinely and always seem to get 101 rounds in every box. I know this because I routinely shove 15 rounds in every magazine. By the end of the box, I always have 11 rounds left. Wow, this cuts my...

I had a great experience over the past two days when I participated in a NRA based CCW training session. We spent about four hours going over the “book†part of the program last night. It was based on the NRA publication, Pistol Shooting. It was taught by a local police detective named...

I am looking for a good, moderate cost gun belt. I want one that is stiff enough to retain the holster well yet supple enough to feel comfortable. I am looking for a 1 ½†size. The two that I have found to date are the Rafter S Cowhide belt for $45 http://www.raftersgunleather.com/and the Hume...
