    Wet vs. dry case cleaning.

    Recently got a thumlers tumbler. I couldn't believe the results. Here are before and after pics. Note how rough the cases are in the before. I'll be mostly wet tumbling from now on.

    Possible Durham, NC move. Any gun relevant info?

    Looks like the previously mentioned bill passed- no more Durham gun registration. http://www.wral.com/house-roundup-pension-guns-religion-bills-pass/13745536/

    Possible Durham, NC move. Any gun relevant info?

    V8 said: "Overall the people of NC are gun friendly, especially when you get away from the cities and into the rural towns." So True! This is what I was saying about Mebane and Hillsborough. They are a little more rural. In the rural areas, you are the minority if you are anti. But you...

    Possible Durham, NC move. Any gun relevant info?

    Larry, This is all my opinion- YMMV. Durham is a great town. People that live in Durham seem to like it. People that live in Wake County (Raleigh and Cary/Apex) may disagree. There seems to be a minor rivalry between these areas. I once saw a tee shirt that said "I'd rather get shot in...

    Kel-Tec : What's the Latest Opinion ?

    I'm with Old Guy- my PMR30 just works. Ditto on the trigger, noise and muzzle blast- combining to make it really fun to shoot!

    Well yeah that's sure what I said, but I didn't really choose my words well. I had just seen it and I was in a bit of a raw mood. I would've been better off thinking about it before letting it out like that. Let me try to say it better- Americans need to become more aware of what is happening...

    Must see Video

    Not a short video- but a great one. This is a video that will crystallize what you already know, and help you make the case for what gun control really means.... From Armenia to Russia, to china, Germany, Cambodia, Guatemala, to the United States. The consequences of firearm registration and...

    Old Ammo boxes

    Got a box of my grandfathers old stuff recently. He's been deceased for about 25 years. In the box I found a 1952 Alaska non-resident hunting license (he lived on the east coast US but went to AK to work a few different times). The license was $10 which was probably significant then, no...

    MSNBC Poll on new Admin PSAs for gun safety

    Agreed- and there are almost 22 hrs of this day left so I'll skip it.

    sub $400 revolver

    I must be the lucky one. Loading 30 rds into 1 mag seriously stresses the spring in the mag. If not careful you WILL dent the brass. Dented brass=FT something. Once you realize this- more fun than imaginable (just be careful when filling magazines). The flash/muzzle blast and shear quantity...

    sub $400 revolver

    I have quite a few semi-autos (22, 22wmr 'pmr-30', 9mm, .40 and .45). I'd like to add a revolver to my collection. Just doesn't seem right I have all these s. autos and no wheel guns. Doesn't need to be anything fancy. In fact I would like just a good, common wheel gun in a common caliber...

    Minimum acreage for shooting (Wake CO, NC)

    I'd like to be able to walk out my back door and squeeze off a few rounds without creating a reportable offense. I live in Apex, NC on a .5 acre lot. I'm pretty sure if my mower backfires I'll be talking to the local constabulatory. Let alone the discharge of an actual firearm. So I'd like...

    Girls first gun- customization

    Thanks for the input. I'm gonna get her all the appropriate extra items- eyes, ears, range bag etc.. Sounds like laser etching is not a sure thing. If anything I'll do a nameplate or similar on a soft rifle case.

    Girls first gun- customization

    I am getting my niece her first gun. It is a Savage Rascal single shot 22. Here is the link: http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/rascal/ . If you wait on that page it should cycle through to the pink one. It looks like a great little gun for training, with good, adjustable peep sights...

    Niece's first gun- recommendations

    It has been ordered. I decided on the savage rascal. Thanks for all the great advice. Lots of stuff to think about. In the end- single shot and the accutrigger won me over. I'll be posting a "how to customize" question shortly.

    Niece's first gun- recommendations

    Thanks all, great advice. I think I'm gonna start single shot, then she can graduate to a bolt, then a semi auto. That way we can concentrate on the significance of making each shot count, the mechanics of loading, etc. And thanks mp7, I checked the Crickett web site and they have a nice pink...

    "Track" your brass?

    Yes thanks to you and everyone for the details. I've been sorting by headstamp, and I have noticed patterns- like if one type is cracked- the others of tye same kind may be as well. I think for me I'll feel most comfortable sorting by headstamp and making some loose attempt to keep them grouped...

    "Track" your brass?

    For years I have saved brass. Just started reloading. So this brass is known once-fired (except for a few stray range pick ups). I also got a lot from the guy I bought my Dillon 550 from. Several thousand rounds of 45 acp, etc. This is from the seller's collection- I think most if not all-...
