Yes, I have read the many threads on gun safes but have only found a couple of references to Superior Safes. They compare very favorably to a Liberty for a lot less money. The interiors do not seem as nice as a Liberty but still OK. So is there anyone out there who reads this forum who owns one...

I have been extremely busy lately and have not had the opportunity to keep up with the latest on the president's latest interpretation of who can sell a firearm. Can someone tell me if this is indeed in effect and what are the particulars of it. I can't imagine it would be this quickly but who...

Have missed this show for the last couple of years. A nice gun show in Hastings, Nebraska. Attendance seemed to be very slow early which is unusual. When we pulled in after our 3 hour drive we were surprised there were not more cars there. More people showed up but still not elbow to elbow...

I recently picked up a S&W model 19 that has a wear spot on the right side of the barrel that is about an inch long. I know very little about any products that could be used to cold blue this spot to make it look a little better. It really does not look all that bad but a little blue on it would...

Not sure if this has been posted here or not. The state of Colorado made some bold estimates that are not even close to reality and it is costing tax payers a bunch of coin. Of course, there is the usual spin. I don't understand why people can't just say if something works or doesn't work and be...

Been shooting Berry's for a while and have had good accuracy from them in my 9's and 40's. Have some for my 38/357 but have not loaded them. Picked up some 124 grain X-tremes and have not loaded them yet. Have read good and bad about the X-tremes. Can anyone compare? Thanks I have shot...

I have loaded several 357 before but never with 2400. Found some at my LGS today and I have read that several people recommend it for 357 mag loads. I shoot a lot of 38's but would like to load some 357 in a manageable load. I am not one to load to the hot side. I see on the Alliant site...

I was reading the thread about when and where some people carry their firearms. A couple weeks ago, in the evening, it was still light out, I was sitting in my living room eating a taco while sitting in a chair. I could see someone walking up the front porch and headed for the front door. He...

The Tulsa Wanenmacher show has been on my bucket list for a long time now. Never a good time of year for me but I finally said this is the year I go no matter what. Taking the bride along, looking forward to walking and looking at guns for two days. Share your experiences if you want. Mods...

I might have an opportunity to pick up a Ruger in the 7 1/2 inch barrel. I know about the flame cutting but it doesn't appear to be a big problem as it is mostly confined to the 125 and smaller bullets. I haven't seen this particular handgun yet so I do not know how much flame cutting, if any...

Call me confused. I just started to cast my own 45 bullets with a Lyman mold, 220 grain round nose bullet, single lube groove. I have both the .451 and .452 sizers so I am OK either way on this. Most, if not all of the lead bullets I have seen commercially are .452. Then I read in my Lyman...

Missed the Chisholm Trail show at least the last two years, maybe three. Anyway, finally worked out to get down there as it is one of the biggest and best in Kansas and I needed to get out of town for a day. Lots of empty tables, not sure what that was all about. Plenty of ammo of just about...

The way things are going these days in our government, I don't rule anything out. I never thought I would see what I am now seeing, it is like out of a movie and I am nearly 60 years old so I have seen a lot. The question is, given the worst case scenario - they outlaw guns, does anyone...

I am deeply disappointed in PSA but that is another story for another day. I purchased everything to build a complete AR from PSA. The lower went together great and everything worked perfectly the first time for about 20 rounds. The roll pin that holds the trigger in place works itself...

I have a bolt 223 and a Stag, been pretty happy with the usual 55 grain bullets status quo. Recently put together an AR with all PSA parts. The upper is a 16", 5.56 stainless barrel with a 1:7 twist. I fully expect this to be a tack driver of a rifle with this barrel. I have read about twist...

Finally getting around to getting some stuff cleaned up in my man cave which is about half of our basement. We keep most cardboard boxes and fold them for storage and I had quite a few laying around that needed attention. What does that say when the labels on them are from: Midway (2)...

Looking at a couple of Vortex scopes. The Vortex SPARC Red Dot Optic and the Vortex Strike Fire Red/Green Dot scope. I have not held or used either but have read quite a bit about the Strike Fire. This will go on a AR I just completed that I expect to be very accurate. I plan on doing 100...

I just finished putting a PSA AR together, my first for putting a lower together. It was fun and educational. Over a year ago I picked up a scope from Midway not really knowing what I would put it on. Well, now I know. Here is what I have. AR with front site only. Mid length, no special...

I am certain this is a a die adjustment somewhere but I can't seem to track it down. Here is what I am running in to. Loading 9 mm at an OAL of 1.125 I have set the dies from past use and used the quick lock to put them back in I run one case at a time and everything comes out right on the...

I managed to pick up some Berry's 124 grain RNHB thick plated bullets for my 9. I also found a small lot of them in the FP bullet as well. Do you change anything on your load or OAL when you use these bullets? I am looking forward to working up some loads on these. I have been using 4.0 grains...
