Lots of good info here!
JeffG,
I certainly agree with the two-pronged test of custody and movement requiring Miranda. But what if I'm cuffed and I start getting questioned? The LEO considers me to be "detained", but I'd sure consider myself "under arrest" or at least not free to leave. That...
It's a really nice range. There is a club you can join or just pay $10 and shoot all day. If you don't have a KDWP park permit on your vehicle that's an extra $5.
The one at Hillsdale Lake State Park is my favorite and it has a 200-yard range. Looks like its about an hour's drive from Lvnworth. Welcome to Kansas.
Veral Smith at Lead Bullet Technologies (www.lbtmolds.com/) sells caliber-specific lead Push-Thru Slugs. They make it very easy to detect a barrel constriction and I've found them very useful in determining when to stop firelapping.

What's really bugging me is the "A.C." stamp on the right side. If that's a scrubbed version of R.A.C., how did it end up on a 1911 NS? Is this some earlier model of Colt DA revolver and not a New Service?
Not sure what it is
Hey guys,
I've acquired a seriously modified Colt and am hoping someone can help me find out what this puppy started out as. Past refinishing removed almost all markings (rampant colt, model, patents, butt, etc.) except for "A.C." on right side just above grip (R.A.C...
