    Purchasing Automatic Knives

    I live in Michigan where "out the side" opening automatic knives are legal and im interested in a Buck 110 Auto. However every site I go to states you must be some form of military or manufacturer to purchase and I cant find a store in state that sells them. I have gone to "Knifecenter.com" and...

    Lee Reloading Stand?

    I have a Dillon RL550C and a Redding Big Boss II press, will they mount on the Lee stand? For clarity, I mean 1 mounted top side with the other stored on the bottom shelf.

    Redding Dies Worth It?

    Are Redding reloading dies worth the extra cost over Lee reloading dies? Im a casual reloader, do it more for fun than out of a need for extreme precision. I currently reload .223/5.56, .300 Blackout, .40S&W, may start .44 Magnum and .44 Special down the road.

    Hornady Powder Measure Rust?

    My LNL powder measure is developing minor rust spots on the bare metal surfaces. I havent experienced this on other metalic bodied powder measures. Is there a powder safe lubricant available that wont require me to disassemble and degrease the powder measure before every reloading session?

    Reloading Bench/Stand Suggestions

    I recently purchased a Dillon RL550C press and need a proper stand for it. Im currently using a poorly constructed bench I made from pallet scrap and its just not up to the task. Ideally a reloading stand would be better as cost and space are a concern. Any input is appreciated.

    First Progressive Press Input

    Im considering investing in a progressive reloading press and find myself torn between a Lee Loadmaster or the Dillon RL550C. The 550 has a fantastic record and warranty, but the Loadmaster is roughly half the cost but requires a bit more tinkering as I understand it. Any input would be...

    Flame Cutting?

    Im certain this topic has been beaten to death, but I must ask. What causes "flame cutting" and how does one avoid it? Ive heard some say it is the result of regularly using hot loaded ammunition and others say it is the result of using too light of a round resulting in un-burnt powder...

    Revolver Timing?

    I have 2 S&W X frame revolvers (460v, 500) and have found that if I slowly pull the hammer back 1 or 2 cylinders dont lock up before the hammer on each pistol. Though they do not lock up, they are extremely close to doing so. Each pistol has less than 50 rounds through it. I'm not overly...

    Shoulder Holsters?

    I've been carrying iwb for 2 years now and find that it causes me great discomfort. I have a variety of minor issues that affect my stomach and lower back and having a tight belt aggravates them terribly. I've tried wearing a variety of suspenders with little success. I'm considering a...

    Concealed Carry Suspenders?

    I found wearing suspenders makes conocealed carry significantly more comfortable for me, however my suspenders have a habbit of coming out of adjustment in the shoulder strap length. I currently wear "Perry Y-Back Belt Clip Suspenders". Looking for something that will attach to my belt and...

    Gun Lubricants?

    I've recently heard of people using canola oil on their firearms for lubrication and storage. I have found mixed results in my quest for answers and hoped I could find more solid information here. I myself have a preference towards 10W-30 motor oil at the moment, but if I could use something...

    Tool Marks On S&W 460V

    Was doing a cleaning on my new S&W 460V and noticed this mark under the forcing cone. I've already sent the photo to S&W, waiting on a reply. What are your opinions? Not certain if this should be concerning or if its simply an asthetic flaw.

    .45 Colt in .460 Magnum Pistols?

    Recently purchased a S&W 460V and was wondering if it was adviseable to use the hotter .45 Colt loads in the .460 Magnum? I know the 460 magnum pressure far exceeds the 45 colt but I wanted to be certain I wasnt overlooking something. I have also heard that the 45 Colt can be hard on the...

    I recently made the leap into bullet casting for my S&W 500 and purchased a LEE 440gr gas checked bullet mold. Could I avoid using gas checks if I used reduced loads?
