    What is the safest reaction to armed road rage?

    if you cannot escape or evade, and you're armed, then is when your offensive / defensive pistol training should kick in.... I would stay on the defensive in a situation like that for as long as possible... you should be able to keep him at bay until the police arrive....

    16" Midlength AR Problems

    I also say it's a gas problem... BUT, it very well could be a bad ammo problem... really bad ammo... so I dont' think it's the Ammo, as even the "cheap stuff" should cycle the firearm properly... check for a clog in the gas tube, check the alignment of the gas block, it might be blocking...

    Need some help figuring this out....

    I had this opportunity a couple years back. You want to be fair in the pricing, and keep in mind that the items that you don't need have a lower intrinsic value for you, as they'll just be taking up space, you'll have to try and sell them on your own etc... I figure $500 is a fair price...

    Acceptable Case length variations when trimming (.357 mag brass)

    I've never trimmed handgun brass. BUT, I have measured some on occasion and found a +/- variance of ~.002 and they've always shot fine. I do agree that if you wish them to be perfect, and are looking for the perfect crimp. Trim them and crimp them, and be happy :-) BUT, will that .002...

    5.56 Reloading Question(s)

    I've used both types of primers interchangably in my 5.56 handloads.... I've never had an issue. I try to stick with the magnum primers, just because they're thicker, but both have works quite fine for me.... thousandS of rounds ;-) Mike B
