    Springfield 1911: Bad Feeding Problems with Reloads and Rainer Bullets

    WHoooo! Good News!:D Removing the extractor enabled more effective troubleshooting of the reloading issues. Amongst all the issues I had adjusted my expanding die up. Not the mandrel, but the die itself. It looks like the entire case wasn't getting properly re-sized. I also tried a longer...

    Springfield 1911: Bad Feeding Problems with Reloads and Rainer Bullets

    I'm using 200 RN Rainer (plated). I used to load everything to 1.245-1.250 until all these issues arose. I only started loading shorter to try and get the gun to work. I will load some up tomorrow night or Tuesday and see if they cycle better. Hopefully I can isolate the issue without an...

    Springfield 1911: Bad Feeding Problems with Reloads and Rainer Bullets

    I removed the extractor entirely and cycled it some more. I'm still getting jams, although they are less frequent and a little different. Before I could see the bullets hung up on the extractor. The jams are happening on the last 1 or 2 rounds, mainly the last one in a magazine. Pictures of...

    Springfield 1911: Bad Feeding Problems with Reloads and Rainer Bullets

    I checked the tension. It was VERY tight. I made the mistake of buying from a shop rather than just midwayusa. The place said they had adjusted it "properly". I loosened it significantly and did the "shake test" with an empty case and a loaded bullet. That helped a lot. I dropped in a 18...

    Springfield 1911: Bad Feeding Problems with Reloads and Rainer Bullets

    I have a Springfield Armory 1911 in .45 that has seen 5+ years of normal use. http://www.springfield-armory.com/armory.php?version=4 It's probably had ~4-6K rounds through it. Awhile ago I started having failure to feeds and extraction problems. Turns out the extractor had broken off. I...

    How long til panic stops?

    Panic Buys I wouldn't just assume that bans aren't going to happen. Obama wanted to pass an AWB during his first term, he just didn't want to pursue it until he was guaranteed in his second. The most recent shootings with ARs have brought more media attention. Not to mention the fact that...

    Trouble with the cops.

    Alright last night I posted this topic and I had taking sleeping medicine, so I wasn't on the ball. Also, I wasn't rude, an *******, or snappy to them. I had just been fixing a computer (to no avail) for 2 hours before my little police run in and I was in a little bit of a bad mood. Getting...

    Trouble with the cops.

    I was leaving a friends house today @ around 11PM. I crossed from a country road to a freeway (65 speedlimit) and was driving. I had just been shooting which made this even more fun/awkward. I got pulled over by two cops (double teaming w/ 2 cars). I was under the influence of nothing during...

    Tuck gun into waistband, gun goes boom. Common?

    If you put a gun ANYWHERE, especially in your pants you deserve to blow your butt off. An IWB holster costs $25 or $30, it's not alot. Edited for language. Family forum, lad. Let's keep it a bit cleaner. -Tuner-

    A student in Detroit needs some advice

    cruncker's answer is the perfect answer. Your outward arm muscles are weak. You knock someone's arm towards their chest and you should easily be able to draw and fire.

    UF student arrested because someone got scared at the sight of a gun

    I would sue the police since he didn't have a deadly weapon and he didn't assault anyone. You would win.

    Why are pistol grips evil?

    Because politicians areretarded. They make guns easier to shoot, so they must be banned.

    Planning against future gun control

    The picture is true considering HR 1022 shows signs of passing. On another note I plan to max out all my credit cards buying guns and run away from my debts.
