    Possible New Gun Store/Range May Open

    Thanks to everyone that gave information/opinions based on personal knowledge. That's what I was hoping for. I had also checked out the website before posting....and that made it seem like a decent place, but sites can be deceiving. Really glad to hear about a friendly, courteous, and...

    Possible New Gun Store/Range May Open

    There was an article in my local community newspaper, saying that a new gun store and indoor range is being proposed for a location less than a mile from me. It would be a Shoot Point Blank store. The article goes on to say there are about 30 of them across seven (7) states, but this would be...

    American Handgunner Magazine?

    Thanks to everyone who left an opinion.With the price for this subscription being only $1.16 or $1.23 an issue (5 years or 2 years), it would be hard to go wrong. I take all media with a grain of salt, so I'll be subscribing for the entertainment factor. As I mentioned, it's the only gun...

    American Handgunner Magazine?

    I just got an offer in the mail to subscribe to American Handgunner magazine for $14.77 for 2 years, or $35.00 for 5 years. Even knowing that there are only 6 issues per year, that's a pretty good deal. That is the only gun magazine I've ever subscribed to and that was about 4 decades ago. I'm...

    Hand primers and arthritis

    I also have the RCBS tube fed bench primer and have been using it since the late 70s. It has plenty of leverage so you can avoid tiring your hands, but it also gives you a fantastic feel for seating primers. I've never ram primed, leery of using too much pressure. I load in batches and because...

    Gun show observations

    I've only been to a couple of shows and I'll go again. I too look at them as sort of entertainment and something to do for a few hours. The ones near me are usually about $5 to $6 for entry and have free parking, so I'm not out much even if it's a dud. The last one I attended was good for me. It...

    Is your interest in guns narrow or broad?

    I got my first handgun about 40 years ago and have only owned handguns and worked at improving my handgun skills since. I've never owned a rifle or shotgun....just never felt the need or desire. I enjoyed handguns too much.

    What has happened to THR

    Oh yeah...I like the THR Test format much more. To me, it's much easier on my eyes and more distinct.

    Cabela's Discount Card: Bullets or Ammo?

    How do you guys get these discount coupons mailed to you? I've purchased from them in store, but that wouldn't have given them my mailing info. However, I've also ordered online using my info and picked up in store, so I'd think they have my info, since it had to be given during the ordering...

    CHP Card Question

    In Wisconsin, it's a simple hard plastic rectangle, like a DL. It's very plain, white, with the information in black letters, and the only color being the state crest. In fact, mine is coming up for it's 5 year renewal and when I called the Attorney General's office due to a problem renewing...

    50 Round MTM Caseguard Ammo Boxes Now Hinged

    These were an especially good deal. I placed this order during my birthday pricing period and these only cost me $1.46 each....and they didn't increase my shipping costs.

    Lyman 50th Edition Reloading Handbook

    My manual arrived today, but I haven't had a chance to look it over very much. There's no doubt that it'll be worth every penny for me since my others are old enough to vote. I was concerned that the hardcover might get banged up corners during shipping, but it arrived in pristine shape. They...

    50 Round MTM Caseguard Ammo Boxes Now Hinged

    I just got an order from Midway USA that included 10 50 round MTM Caseguard ammo boxes in blue for .40S&W. I usually include 5 or 10 with orders to make the most use of the shipping costs. I was surprised to see that they've altered them. They now have the actual hinges, like the 100 round...

    Lyman 50th Edition Reloading Handbook

    It's been a long time since I bought a new reloading manual, so I decided to get this 50th edition if I found it locally. I dislike shipping charges. I'd put it in my Midway USA wish list just in case I put an order together before finding it locally, but it was backordered. On Monday, I logged...

    Xtreme bullets processing/shipping times?

    I ordered on May 1st, the first day of the 20% off sale. Although I was in no rush for them, I wondered what was up when I got no email regarding shipping and time went on. I got them a little over 2 weeks after ordering.

    Heads up X-treme bullets has 20% off May 1st

    Roval, you should be good to go. I just checked my email and the 20% discount is still going on for May 5th. I also ordered Sunday morning, but haven't heard anything from them except the initial email confirming my order. But again, it really doesn't matter if it takes a while since I'm in...

    Heads up X-treme bullets has 20% off May 1st

    I'm in no rush for these, but just had to take advantage of the deal, so if they ship sort of slow, it's no big deal to me. On the other hand, I ordered about 9 hours after they sent out the 20% off email on the first day, and I haven't received any email regarding my order shipping, like others...

    Heads up X-treme bullets has 20% off May 1st

    I got that email from them yesterday too. The best discount I've seen from them was 15% a few days after their Black Friday sale. 20% was just too good to pass up, so I've got 3000 .40 coming. 8 cents each is pretty nice.
