This is partly a reloading matter actually but - first off does anyone know the twist rate for this? I ask because I have elected to load with a top-end bullet weight. The 105 spitzer SP from Speer - wishing to finish up with a good hitting round. The rifle is no longer in production BTW...

OK folks - this has to be desirable? Guy I am doing some work for (the same guy for whom I recently reassembled his Randall - and posted about it) - came round today and brought this gun. I snatched a quick pic. Second pic is exposed less to show better the legend stamped on slide. Appears...

Interesting gun here - a Randall! Now OK - my knowledge of every 1911 variant is still sadly lacking but I did get the impression this is both a pretty old gun and also not sure that they were made in huge quantities. No SN that I can find - just ''FLC'' on frame above trigger. It's in...

OK wheelie freaks - here is my aquisition from last Saturday at the Tulsa Gun Show - came in to my dealer this afternoon. Though I would have liked to find a good 'dash 2' to have a P&R, this is still very pleasing - very tight, good overall finish and I'd say a 98% specimen. Probably not...

OK folks - if you want to avoid a lengthy ramble, change channels now!! This is the whole skinny! Backpedal to Thursday March 30th - Bonnie and I left home about 9.00am to see if we could get a flight from Reagan DC at 2.40pm to Denver, having to get there before a hop to Tulsa. Note - we...

If so could you PM me please? be most grateful.

One of the guys at a shoot this afternoon was enjoying throwing lead thru his old Mossin - M44 IIRC - anyways he had a can of VERY mixed 7.62x54R - all sorts!!! This one came out after a seemingly normal feeling shot but hey - look at this case (a steel one) - I have seen head sep's and...

Confession - in process of tidying up a post not needed - lost whole thread.! It happens! Let me try and re construct - from cached page pre delete problem. First post from Michael Courtenay - ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Defining Stopping Power Many discussions...

Many folks will have seen this during the thread Bobo had running a while back. The chart has inevitably been a ''work in progress'' as small changes have been made/added. The latest version is kindly being hosted by Marshall at Mouseguns.com and Bobo hopes that any updates will be reflected...

For those who don't get North American Hunter mag' - thought I'd post this pic of latest cover. Maybe just me but I think it is one of the most charming cover pics I have seen in a long time.:)

Well folks - one of them days when not much time on puter - a rare event! All morning and into pm was shooting - but this shooting with my dear son (he's near 29) - always a real treat. The day was just beautiful - even warmed up - could not have been nicer. Wish I'd taken camera but neither...

A few folks may recall my whining about my P12.45's mysery re extraction and actually general function. Well - know what? It really is worth inspecting things closely! Dufus here had not done this but decided as a useful move to replace extractor anyways (thx to CP14.45 for the...

Somewhere - on some forum not too long ago - somewhere in the immenseness of cyberspace - I responded to a thread dealing with 625's, moonclips etc and referred to my (then misappropriated) home made demooner. My intention was on finding it to post a useful pic to show it - but can I remember...

Many folks have seen odd pics of mine over time but as a sorta experiment, decided to put them together as a vid. It is not perfect but seems to work quite well - depending on your connection speed, choose the file to suit. Hope you enjoy. :) Handgun Pics vid - lower res - (3.8 Mb)...

Well folks - pretty good day yesterday tho much was ''work''! The whole deal was let's say an organized ''company outing'', so as to give some play time to a bunch of employees. I assisted as a RSO on the turning target range where we had a competition going on, first prize once scoring done...

I heard from a friend of Dave's (who does not post here much), that yesterday he (Dave) had a fire which pretty much destroyed everything - meaning right now that any holster orders that were not complete and shiipped will be dead in the water. It seems that no one was hurt, which is the big...

The latest issue is out, of Concealed Carry Magazine. It is currently subscription only but I have taken this since issue #1. It has grown in leaps and bounds and has become IMO a definitive publication. I unreservedy recommend it to folks who carry or are considering such. I have BTW no...

I cannot believe folks can be this foolish - great advertisement for gun safety and responsibility huh? Not sure quite what else to say - two very irresponsible young guys. Note - slight language factor!! Crazy bottle shot

Came across this, tho some folks may have seen it - it was new to me - very useful chronicle of many instances involving civilian defence episodes. This link will take you to this month's incidents .... - just select from links on the left to inspect other month archives. This is good work...

HDD's in puters usually have a figure for MTBF - Mean Time Before Failure - measured naturally in hours. I wonder tho if there are any figures for our guns - measured here in ammo thruput. I know some rifles utilizing hyper velocity rounds will maybe have a barrel life of 2,000 rounds let's...
