    Ruger Security 380 lite rack

    Let us know what you think once you get a chance to shoot it.

    1911 load question

    I've never loaded that way, but the reason, I presume, is to eliminate the possibility of the top round hanging on the ramp. The top round is least supported in the magazine and most likely to nose dive into the ramp. This isn't an issue for ball ammo since it will glace off and up to...

    Did my pistol sight swap.

    You may want to add a little loctite also just to be sure your sight won't go flying off while shooting, the front sight especially.

    Rmr bullet discount code for THR members

    Please send me the code as well, when you get a chance. I'm hoping to do a batch now that components are coming back in stock.

    Ruger Max-9 slide lock problems

    Wow, what an insulting response from Ruger especially since they clearly ignored everything you sent/told them. I am not familiar with the Max-9 specifically, but have faced similar issues on other pistols. Here is what I would do, if you don't want to just sell it and move on. You can weld...

    New primer brands?

    What caused the crushed primers, was the primer pocket too shallow, or was the diameter too small, or both?

    Winchester White Box 9mm in a... Black Box?

    I was always told this restriction was to prevent backstop damage at indoor ranges, and reduce the risk of sparks/fire at outdoor ranges. The real risk is the projectile obviously, but brass ammo is "always" loaded with lead/copper, so the range will just black list everything that isn't brass...

    Kahr CW 380

    I had a poor experience with their .380, and even after several trips back, it never ran reliably. Disappointed to hear the .45's also have issues. I have been looking at them for what seems like forever, but never bought because of my experience with the .380. My PM9 runs like a champ though.

    9mm is making more sense in revolvers these days

    This is it exactly. The plethora of small 9mm autos out there already fill this niche for anyone who is sensitive to ammo prices and wants a CCW gun. And if it's just a CCW gun that someone wants, then you're competing with all the .380's out there too. As a fun gun, sure it has appeal, but...

    UNDERWOOD Shipping Mistake?

    Yes, and with the box in hand they can confirm the number and product inside. The thought wasn't meant as an attack on you OP. I don't doubt what you've said here, but there is no shortage of scammers out there, so Underwood would be wise to confirm things.

    UNDERWOOD Shipping Mistake?

    I don't know Underwood's motivation, but if it were me I would want to first make sure OP was being truthful and an extra box of ammo was sent. With the box in hand you could check for lot/age of the ammo, and make sure it wasn't counterfeit or old ammo trying to be passed off. Then you...

    UNDERWOOD Shipping Mistake?

    I've never gotten the wrong ammo, but anytime I have received the wrong product, or extra, the company always wants it back. I don't see the harm either, I didn't pay for it and they cover shipping, so I'm only out the inconvenience of dropping off the package. Maybe I would have an issue if...

    Any problems with officer model 1911s

    I don't know if there is anything inherently unreliable about them, but my experience was not great. I have a Colt Defender in .45 acp that had every issue you could imagine. I sent it back a few times, but Colt did the absolute minimum to attempt to fix some of the issues and ignored the rest...

    Brownell’s

    A few months ago at least. From what I've read it's insurance in case it gets stolen after delivery. Ar15com had a good thread about it a while back with comments from Brownells.

    Browning 1911-380, feedback and reviews?

    Good thread, I've looked at these several times, but the lack of reviews and the non-metal frames always put me off. The lack of reviews especially, I didn't want to risk buying a headache for something that would essentially be a range toy for me.

    .380 ACP the Red Haired Stepchild?

    I'm glad someone caught this. Also, since it was designed by JMB, it can't be that bad...

    1911 hold open issue

    Well it could be a timing issue or the slide short stroking, but since it only happens during rapid fire, I'm inclined to think this is the issue too.

    RIA 1911

    Why not just get another Springfield? Was there something you didn't like about it?

    Herters .22 LR

    The current production Winchester 22lr leaves a lot to be desired, which is disappointing since it used to be my favorite ammo. Not too expensive and cycled everything. Now though, it seems the QC is non-existent.

    BREAKING: Worth v. Harrington (D. MN): Judge strikes down Minnesota's under-21 carry ban

    I don't see how you can justify them legally post Bruen, so it depends on how much the lower courts (9th especially) want to fight with the Supreme Court. The wheels of justice turn slowly...
