    Where can I get the best price on .45ACP?

    Try www.outdoormarksman.com. Even with shipping, best prices on S&B most of the time, also Winchester White box and Miwall. www.proload.com is also good for Remington UMC. Watch for sales at CheaperThandirt and you can get some good deals. Always factor in shipping, of course.

    Silver Bear Ammo

    I have heard that Silver Bear ammo is made in Russia but is different from Wolf in that it has a plated case rather than laquered like Wolf. So, anyone here tried it yet? More info, please! Thanks in advance!

    Range etiquette question

    I've got an idea for you: Show up at 4:25 with a nice cup of Starbuck's coffee (or some high-end local coffee place) for the lady in the office. Bring sugar in packets, those cutsie little creamer thingies, etc, so she can fix her coffee just the way she likes it. When she wonders what the...

    .22 handguns that are copies of their larger caliber brothers.

    As you mentioned, you already know about conversion units. Here is my range report on the Marvel "Unit 2" conversion for the 1911: http://www.1911forum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=63567

    Wolf ammo in HANDGUNS -- Personal Experience ONLY with 500+ rounds

    Nah, you were just a newbie who didn't know better and you bought a 1000 rounds of the stuff, and you were too cheap to not use it up! (Ask me how I know...) It is no myth that Wolf can be troublesome in some guns. In my Kimber Gold Match (pre-series II), Wolf would get stuck in the chamber...

    Kimber Yin Yang

    Sorry to hear that. I have the Ultra CDP Series II also, and it's flawless until it gets dirty. Then it begins to have FTFs until the feedramp is cleaned. I think if I polished the feedramp, it would keep feeding longer. As it is, it will do about 50 rounds of dirty ammo flawlessly. It also...

    Experience with KY Imports

    I bought a Kimber Classic Gold Match from them for a really good price back in 1999. Gun was exactly as described (new, in box) and they shipped quickly, etc. Good experience with them.

    new magazines what do you do?

    I use a dry lube on them and work the follower up and down and check to make sure everything is smooth. Then, use them.

    Why live there?

    Cowboy, you ask a very good question. My answer can be summed up in one word--family. The relationship of family is more important than the partial restrictions on my freedoms. If those restrictions were greater, then the balance would shift and I'd escape, hopefully with as much of my...

    off-duty cop shot twice playing "joke"

    Alcohol and guns do not mix (at least, not without dire consequences). My guess...cop was drunk, most of the group were drunk. Good thing for the cop it was a .32 or his "wounds to the face" would be greater.

    Right to "drive"

    I think we've got a troll here. Probably an anti who wants to equate our 2nd Amendment right with driving. If that's the case, bluematt, bring up the question fairly and honestly.

    Ammo for 1911 .22 conversion unit

    Thanks for all the info! This conversion unit is the Marvel "Unit 2" which is not their super accurate one. It's about $100 less money and doesn't support a compensator. I think it's supposed to be a Ciener competitor. Marvel didn't issue a list of ammo that he recommends, also he very...

    Ammo for 1911 .22 conversion unit

    I just received my new Marvel Unit 2 .22 conversion for the 1911. Looks great. From those of you that have conversion units, and especially Marvel units, I would appreciate some suggestions on ammo to purchase for it. I haven't bought .22 since I was just a kid! I can't wait! - I...

    "I Just Panicked"

    Mr Mofo, Are you saying that anyone who professes faith in God shouldn't use a gun for self-defense because he should trust in God to protect him? And if he does use a gun he shows that his faith is non-existent or weak? If that's your point (and maybe I'm misunderstanding), it reminds me...

    "I Just Panicked"

    Sounds to me like the pastor didn't have a very good attorney. Spiff, sounds like you would make a good one! Grampster's got it right. We'd have a lot less crime if we gave the benefit of doubt to the good guys instead of the bad guys.
