    Primer/powder search engines

    As long as its not a requirement to sign, my UPS guy will leave them. Was thinking that perhaps because its a Hazmat material it might require a sig. Thanks for feedback.

    Primer/powder search engines

    Do you have to sign for the primers shipped from Capitol? I've got some coming on a day I intended to do something else.

    Primer/powder search engines

    Good to know that Capitol Cartridge appears legit. Thanks for feedback guys. Pricy for SPP but it doesnt look like they are going to get any cheaper any time soon. I'll share some with local reloaders as I won't ever use 5000 primers.

    Light for a Dillon 550

    Got them on both my 550's. Highly recommend.

    Primer/powder search engines

    I ordered the above last Wed (13Apr) and got a comfirmation right away but lady on phone said they were running behind and they should be sent early this week. Getting a bit anxious and wondering if I have been scammed.

    Mauser HSC in 380 Recoil Hurts

    Bought a Ruger Max 380 couple months ago and carry it in OWB regularly. I do reload at less than factory strength so it is a fun shooter and not snappy. Surprisingly light, accurate and functional. Holster also fits the Ruger II 22cal perfectly which I carry at times, depending on circumstances.

    Colt Light Weight, Date Manufactured?

    You're right...I tried it this morn and got 1967 as well. Don't know what problem was the other day when it didn't work at all. Now I know...thanks guys.

    Colt Light Weight, Date Manufactured?

    Coyote: thanks a lot. I think thats it...1967. I was thinking somewhere in '60's to '70. Good to pin it down.

    Colt Light Weight, Date Manufactured?

    Checked it there and not listed...at least nothing similar. I run the number with the LW , without, etc.

    Colt Light Weight, Date Manufactured?

    I have a Colt 4" barrel 45acp, in like new condition, don't believe it has ever been fired. Serial nr is 498**-LW. I know the LW stands for light weight, but can anyone give me an idea when it was made?

    A Small 22lr

    I recently bought a new Ruger LCPII 22lr and it functions extremely well on good ammo and is more accurate that I would have ever expected. It weights about 10oz empty and has a nice safety which I like. I carry it almost all the time.

    New Sig P365 in .380. Why??

    I have a Bersa BP9 and a Walther PPS 9mm, both of which I like. Then I got a Sig 365XL and the recoil is much more tolerable. I think it is because the Sig has a wider grip. Therefore I suspect the Sig 380 will be a nice guy with light recoil for those of us who need it.

    East german makarov

    The Makarov's in question, were made in Bulgaria and E.Germany after WWII and copied from the original Russian Mak. Nothing different other than sights.

    What is FFG Goex powder used in?

    Have several cans given to me, all sealed but one. What is the value of a can? I have no real need for them.

    East german makarov

    I've had both German and Bulgarian. Many Bulgarians came new or LNIB and were nice. German's were usually used with some bluing wear. All shot without ever a failure for me.

    First time for 200gr SWC in 45 ACP, which powders to try first?

    I have a bunch of 200gr SWC lead and find that 4.8 Hp38/231 makes for nice moderate load. I even load down to 4.5 which works in most of my 45's, except the Kimber 4" Pro would fail to eject once and awhile. Put softer 20lb spring in vice the 22 it came with and that works. I shot a lot of...

    This Hellcat is stinging my trigger finger

    I know what you mean. I had that with a couple of 9's, both of which were single stack, fairly thin grip. Never fig out why so sold them. Had a Kahr CW9 and never had that issue, also recently acquired 365XL works for me. It has a wider grip and I'm thinking this has something to do with...

    I'd sure love to carry my P365 comfortably.

    Nsomniac: I understand your concern and share it to a large extent. My CC's for long while were Kahr/s all of which have a long smooth trigger pull more akin to a revolver. Have bought and sold a couple of 9mm's with triggers too light for my taste. Mainly too little take up. But fairly...

    What was the first handgun you ever owned and how old were you when you got it?

    I was 12, right after WWII. Put 50c down on an H&R 22 at O.O. Ruftys in Salisbury NC. They put it on lay away and I put a bit down each week till it was paid. Bullets in those days were about 18c a box. No parents approval required. Truly the good ole days! LOL That store was still in...

    A message from Hodgdon

    Primers are the only extreme shortage I've encountered. Local reloading store seems to have had a fairly good supply of powder, at least the type I use....HP-38. He did say, a couple weeks ago, that the two cans of HP-38 I bought were his last and no idea when a new supply might come in...
