    Jareds jewelers in Hurst, TX now posted 30.06

    I took my wife's wedding set in for it's annual inspection/check-up today and was pretty disgusted when I saw the entrance. A legal 30.06 sign. We've been using this store for 10 years, now we're going to go somewhere else. A friend of my wife works there and has always given us great...

    Have a 10/22 and want to juice it up

    I have a Ruger 10/22 and it's box stock except for the butler creek ext mag release and a Simmmons 3x9 scope. I would like to get a better stock and a match grade heavy barrel and a trigger. Upon looking around, the choices are too abundant. I see that I can easily make it a $1000 plinker...

    I want to make BIG FIRE, need recipe

    My local IDPA club is having a "low light" (aka pitch dark) match on Thursday and I want to make the biggest fireball possible (within safe specs) using my 10mm handloads. What I have to work with is 180gr Ranier plated hp's and either Bullseye, Clays or Unique powder. Since I have never used...

    I took the plunge and started reloading again after 16 years off

    Found a good deal on a Square Deal B with 9mm and 45acp setups so I took the plunge. I've been experimenting with the load for a few days and have come up with what I think works well for me. 124gr Berry's plated round nose bullet, CCI500 small pistol primer and 4.0 gr's of Bullseye. OAL...

    A friend has a 4" Speed Six and I'd like to hook him up with a holster and speed loaders for an IDPA match but I only have S&W stuff. Is it compatible with K or L frame speed loaders? Holster? edited to add: I also have speed loaders for a Colt D frame Det Spl if those might work. Thanks

    S&W 25 Mountain Gun 45LC, can I have it machined for moonclips and shoot 45acp too?

    Title says it all. I'd like to be able to shoot 45LC, 45AR and 45ACP in one gun. That would be pretty sweet I think. Is this doable or do I have to get a custom cylinder? Thanks

    1911: Kimber Ultra MSH shorter than Colt Officers?

    I picked up a steel checkered MSH for an Officers model thinking I could replace the plastic one on my Kimber Ultra CDP with it. No dice, the Colt part is quite a bit longer than the Kimber MSH. Does anyone sell replacement steel mainspring housings for a Kimber Ultra frame? Thanks in advance.

    Shooting SSR in IDPA? Share your views on equipment please.

    I've been shooting my 686 in IDPA for a couple of months now, about 7 matches or so I think. It's a lot of fun and I'm doing pretty well with it. I am curious what equipment other folks are using for SSR as well as what's been tried and NOT liked and why. Here's what I've been using...

    SA V12 1911, hammer follow, cause and solution?

    A long time ago I picked up a used Springfield Armory V12 (ported 5" 1911) that has definitely been shot quite a bit but the price was right so I took a chance. I replaced all the springs, meticulously cleaned it etc. Shot about 2k rounds of Blazer 230gr FMJ without a single malfunction. The...

    Finally shot a clean match

    After shooting 2 or more IDPA matches a month since February, I shot my first clean match (zero pts down and no penalties). There were 29 shooters and I didn't win but I came in a close 2nd. I can live with that. :) How long did it take you to shoot a clean match? I was starting to think...

    Let's see those blued babies

    I'm not sure why but I just cannot resist an old blued Colt, or any blued snub for that matter. Not black, not parked, BLUE BABY! Show me some goodies. :D I picked this up from a good friend. Found the original magazine ad and factory grips on one of the online auction sights.

    90 days in and finally shot an IDPA classifier.

    It was just under 90 days ago that I shot my first IDPA match. Since then I have made a lot of new acquaintances and learned quite a bit. I've shot 1-2 matches a week and have been driving my wife crazy with the whole thing. She has however been supportive and quick to point out the blistering...

    Finding the IDPA gear I want is proving difficult

    Blade-tech has 3-5 week backlog, Comp-tac has not returned my calls, "WTB" threads on multiple forums have gone unanswered. What the heck do I have to do to get a good kydex holster NOW? :banghead: Links to reputable dealers with stock on hand are greatly appreciated. :o
