    S&W 360 Kit Gun

    Per my usual shopping method, I've been prospecting for a new revolver to replace the '74 "issue" Colt DS. I'd like a revolver, in .357 Mag, as it's my winter carry piece and picking brass to reload from the winter NH snow is a loosing proposition. The selection of choice was the 360 Kit...

    VA ranges...

    Gentlemen: Sorry to hit you again, as I feel that I offer so little in return, but I'm on the road again, this time playing consultant, with the local PSU (People Storage Unit) located in Manassas VA. The nonresident CCW has been out for a month or so, and should be my Christmas present...

    Colt Detective Special Replacement!

    Ladies and Gentleman: My 1974 CDS has now been fired more times than I can count, has a bit of rust, but still retains a trigger which allows me to fire SA from a DA start. It's about time to consider a replacement revolver, I think, and, although I've looked, all I see is J frames...

    MD residents

    Sirs: I've invaded your spaces with a couple of handguns, fired same at the Cresap range, and so can live with having to do a consulting assignment here. The money's good, of course, and "life" could be much worse. But, due to some success, it appears that I'll be here a...

    10mm-08 wildcat

    I'm currently involved with the 7.62x25mm, CZ-52 combination. Potent, AP, and a very interesting combination. But the CZ isn't a modern, combat weapon, nor is the round sure to penetrate level IIIA armor, which, so far as I can tell, half of the criminal population wears. So, how...

    CZ-52 reloading fun and games

    While I'd really like to "work up" my pair of CZ's, it's a bit difficult due to the real, paying job, work situation. In any case, once fired S&BV's in hand, I loaded the only available reasonable powder, Unique, to see what gives. At 5.8 gr, over a WSP primer and below an 85 gr Sierra, it...

    CZ-52 smiths?

    Anybody have a good CZ-52 gunsmith in hand? I'm thinking about a Docter sight mounted...

    On the road question...

    A resident of NH, I find myself in a consulting job in MD, which sucks, but that's another thread. While I know I can't carry, can I have a handgun in the local motel, legally? And, can I hit the range, again, legally? I've a note out to the MDAG, with, of course, no response, and I'm...

    Anybody playing with the 7.62x25?

    Having just purchased a CZ-52, since you've got to use the C&R once you've got one, I now get to play with the 7.62x25 Tok. From the limited load data I've got, it looks like the beast can come within 100 fps or so of .30 M1 carbine ballistics with AA9 and a 110. Either something's wrong...

    MD help and information...

    Currently playing consultant in MD, with the toys left at home. With four weeks between home visits, it'd be nice to bring some down, given that'd it'd be legal and there's a range (where I can collect the brass: reloader, as you'd expect). Any help would be appreciated. Oh, I'm located...

    Swaging Press Questions...

    The time has come to complete the loading bench, and that means jacketed slug production, and a swaging press.... For multiple reasons, power has been selected, and, since I'm interested in hard swaged bullets, that means one of the big ones... My highest interest is in RCE's...

    C&R report...

    My wife yells "HELP!" C&R now in hand, and on file for a couple of weeks, the CZ-52, with a hundred rounds, is now on order! Sounds like fun to me... But there are those random SKS's who need a good home.... And I've always wanted, at least since I started reloading, and reading...

    C + R FFL Questions

    I'm considering applying for a C + R. I'll be buying for myself, not reselling (weapons come in, but the NEVER go out...), and have only a couple of weapons in mind, CZ-52 and M1 carbine, although such things do tend to go to the extreme. Any particular reasons I shouldn't? Responses...

    Swaging

    Having looked at the subject for more years than I care to count, or relate, I'm considering setting up for swaging my own slugs... I'm not sure that it makes sense for lead pistol bullets, but I surely love gas operated rifles, and jacketed bullets are required there... This would be...

    P3AT: working it up....

    Got my P3AT, with an extra mag, as a very unsuprising Christmas present. She got her bracelet, also no suprise, since she picked it out, and so, for now, all's well with the world. As far as the AT goes, it's got 100 Blazers through it, half hollow point, half FMJ. No FTF at all, a real...

    Parts, TSA, and air travel

    For one reason or another, I'm currently involved in out of state consulting, and stay in a residence hotel in Ohio while home's NH. Since, naturally, one doesn't go far from home without something along for defense, the S&W 4516 was brought along, broken down and hidden in luggage in the...

    OH help

    Ladies and Gents: For one reason or another, or merely bad luck, I've picked up a contract in Dayton, good for six months or so, or until they decide otherwise... While I know I've gotta go unarmed ("I'm gonna be naked??? Tight fetal position assumed...). can anyone provide some...

    Bushmaster Carbon 15

    I carried the initial A1 version of the M16, and, for the most part, hated it. But, it was light, somewhere around 6 pounds or so, if I remember, and my "mixed mode" A2 weights about as much, plus or minus a pound or so, as my M1A. Thus, I'd be interested in any experienced comments on the...
