So a buddy of mine inherited a .460 S&W. He wanted to experiment with light under penetrating loads with high energy. I wasn't sure. Could you get a 170 grain solid copper round to reach 3000fps out of the 460 S&W hand-loading?

Think they are worth anything? Just toss them in the tumbler to a mirror finish and reload them? ;) DWM SS-1938 marked.

So I've heard of the oh so mythical penetration abilities of the 7.62x25mm Tokarev. So I put S&B 85gr FMJ in a 9" SMG barrel (PPS43C) for even increased boost in velocity up to test. Average 1800FPS out of the 9" PPS43 barrel. So if the pistol velocity pierces armor, the SMG velocity should...

I'm kind of perplexed that vermont has no state gun laws and go by federal laws only. I e anyone carry a pistol open or concealed, and theoretically anyone can carry a rifle or shotgun open And concealed. how is it tHat a North East state right next to New York one of the worst in the nation and...

I have a BP powder revolver with cartridge conversion cylinder .45 LC. Juse fired first 5 centerfire rounds. Has very strange heat signature and powder burns. Looks like powder is burning on the outside discoloring casings. What's going on here? Is it safe to shoot?

OK, so I have a .45 colt revolver, and i'm curious if .45 auto rimmed can be fired through it? And if .45 auto rimmed can be fired through it, then .45 ACP can be fired with moon clips correct? And if .45 ACP can be fired with moon clips, then .45 GAP can be fired with moon clips? Reason...

I'd like the see what variations of (legal, of course) SBS' our members have. Hope to see pump, lever, SxS and O&U represented. Maybe a triple threat. Just trying to decide which route to go once I get my stamp.

I have some checkered plastic grips, and I want a 1/4" circle recession drilled into one for medallion, and a diamond shape recession into other set. Medallions are only 1mm or so in width, and I figure the cuts would be 2-3mm deep to lay below the checkering and be flush with the base of the...

Found a good use for one. Small fish can seek refuge in the barrels.

Lehigh Defense 9mm 105gr ME flesh test This test was done to see the effectiveness of the Lehigh Maximum Expansion 9mm load. First and foremost I want to state that animal did not suffer, and was culled instantly through the head before other shots as per normal butcher routine. Was not worried...

What's a good brand mini reflex sight, like the ones for handguns? I notice most are around the $100 mark.

For carry ammo that's loaded a while, I'll put a dab of oil on each case, brass or nickel - rub it in and around the hollowpoint then wipe it off and load. I know this is not required, but I figure whatever aid in feeding and gliding over each round and into chamber it cannot hurt, not to...

Can anyone identify the grain weights (98-124) and velocities of these rounds on 1-14? Thanks.

Can you name off any model that are extremely finicky, or just will not flat out feed hollowpoint ammo? I'm lucky all my guns are good. I had a P3AT that was slow to load some .380 rounds into battery, would hang up literally for like a second. Had a para .45 Warthawg that was similar. And on...

I want a supertuck style holder for a P08 luger, like the Galco I have for my glock. I don't plan on using said luger for CCW, just when I take it I can comfortably carry it concealed. Would a holster for a Ruger Mark III or something similar work? Any experience? I prefer an inside the...

I'm not sure if this is the right area to post this. I am interested in a weapon in the area, and due to all the fraud and whatnot if I were to pay someone if they could look at said weapon. Thnks

Anyone know where to find this? In +P or standard. Been looking for a while never see it, only 124. No luck on ammoseek either.

Figured I would create a thread where folks could mention what they use for a truck gun in the colder areas of the country - for sure reliability. Dawned on me as it was nearing 20 below zero, with wind chills of over -30. For winter I keep a PPS43 pistol, with dry lube. Cheap enough I don't...

I read in another thread that pistols considered "Curio & Relic" can have a detachable buttstock and not be considered a SBR. Is this true? What classified a pistol as "Curio & Relic"? Are they listed by name and model, or just a year range? And for Curio & Relic, does this cover folding...

Does anyone hand load specific loads to get use of their longer barrels? What grain weights are you using and velocities are you getting? Are their any commercially loaded carbine loads?
