Alright your post got me thinking my crimp was the issue. I started from scratch, started seating deeper until the cartridge fit in my most commonly used 9mm pistols. Came up with 1.065" OAL. Then I worked my crimp down to .378" and everything is 100%. Thanks for all the help.
One last...
Yeah I know the Blue Bullets are 0.355" diameter and the MO bullets are 0.356" however I'm an idiot for buying the 0.356" MO bullets everytime I walked into the shop. They were cheap and now I'm sitting on a mountain of 4000 bullets. Since I had no issues with their .45 and 10mm I figured "what...
Yes to all of the above lol. I checked and they are true .356 diameter. I'm also using a taper crimp die, but in the same station as the seating. On the dummy rounds I'm definitely getting marks in the coating that indicate o-give is the issue. I guess its back to Blue Bullets.
I have been reloading with Missouri bullets in .357, .45 and 10mm without any issues but I have stockpiled a bunch of 9mm in 115 gr that will not pass the plunk test in any firearms that I own.
They're coated 9mm 115 gr at .356 diameter. I've tried the following with dummy loads:

Well that would certainly solve the problem in CA, MA, MD, NY and NJ where permits are difficult to procure. Residents of those states could simply obtain a nonresident permit from a state that issues to an individual whether or not their home state issues.
Places like Levi's are doing this for the sake of the antis and the pressure they are putting on them. As stated above, unless the law prohibits you from carrying you're going to carry. In my home state these signs mean nothing. If it's concealed they'll have idea you're packing and if they do...
I 've done plenty of long guns but nothing with tight tolerances like a pistol. I've got a FEG HP clone and was planning to refinish it with Gun Kote. My question is should I do the underside of the slide? Will even thin coats cause drag on the slide?
Thanks
I work for the gun lobby here in RI and we've shut down the Bloombergers four years in a row. If it can be done in the bluest of blue states Maine can do it. This year is going to be a tough one for us but it can be done.
The whole grandfathering is nonsense. I work for the gun lobby here in RI and every year the antis write legislation that would outlaw the possession of the AR regardless of where and when you bought it. Either sell it out of state (how thoughtful of them) or turn it over to law enforcement...
You need to do what I do. Tie your kids up and force them to watch all the classics. The A-Team, Rambo 1-12, Anything Chuck Norris. After than they'll come around.
Seriously though, my boys are 9 and 11 and they've been shooting a half dozen times in the at few years. Neither is super...
So the picture and description for the gun was the SU-16C but they are trying to ship you the 16CA? And GB thinks this is OK? How the heck is this any different then me posting a Glock 17 and shipping the buyer a goat? (If I follow the story correctly.)
If Gun Broker puts you on the hook for...
