    Cant get slide off my Sig 226. Help please!

    I have had a Lasermax installed on my Sig 226 which has worked great. This is the setup where the stock guide rod is replaced by the Lasermax guide rod and spring and the laser is activated by the new take down lever which has an internal button. Something had gone wrong with the take down...

    Black soot on my handgun cases after shooting!

    I reload for 9mm and 10mm and notice that there are black soot on the side of most brass i pick up. I dont see this as much with a factory loaded round. I use the Hornady dies that seat and crimp in one station and wondering if maybe the crimp is not right or tight enough??? There are no...

    Reloaded and chrono'd some hot 9mm 147gr rounds!

    First time i have reloaded for the 9mm and decided to go with AA#7 for my heavy 9mm reloads since i use them also for the 10mm 155gr variety. I chrono'd these factory rounds out of the M&P9c which has 3.5 inch barrel and completely stock minus trigger work. I am listing the average of a five...

    Chamber support in the M&P9? How is it??

    I have an M&P9 compact that i love and want to reload 9mm. I have been reloading 10mm for my Glock 20 and immediately got an aftermarket barrel for better chamber support since i am loading hot 10mm loads. I was wondering how the chamber support in the M&P9s were and if an aftermarket barrel is...

    50BMG and amount of crimp????

    I got the Hornady 50BMG kit and have prepared some cases and ready to load and assemble. I am having a difficulty figuring out the amount of crimp to put on the bullet. The ammo will be fired in a Barrett M82 so it will be a semi of course and would require a crimp. The way i set up the...

    Tumbling cases???

    I just got a Hornady tumbler and Frankford Arsenal corn cob media. I put 30 cases of 50 BMG in the tumbler and after three hours the cases look pretty clean and shiny but the necks still have a lot of crud on them. I let the tumber go for three hours straight with four teaspoons of brass...

    Look at my 10mm primer strikes!

    Here are a few brass from my session this weekend. These were shot in lone wolfe barrel from Glock 20. The brass cases are from Georgia Arms 180gr FMJ range ammo which chrono'd 1085ft/sec so is not a nuclear load. The nickel brass you see are from DT 135, 180 and 200gr loads. The cases...

    Best powder for 10mm with lest temp sensitivity and long term storage?

    I have decided to reload for my 10mm Glock 20. I have used to reload for a few years during my college times for my 9mm and 7mm Rem Mag rifle but have not reloaded in 20yrs but still very familiar. I want to load large numbers as in about 5,000 rounds once i have my load worked up. These will...

    Chrono'd 10mm, 9mm and 5.56 today! DoubleTap disappointing :(

    So have been meaning take my G20 to the range for sometime to check some numbers and compare DT to some of the other 10mm i have piled up. I just purchased a nice Chrono at Midway and decided to try it out. Weather was 93deg today so definitely nothing that should limit velocity. I am just...

    I am in love with my new M&P9c!!!

    Well i have been shooting for a better part of 15yrs and i have always been an import guy. My first hand gun was a Sig 226 in 1992. Since then i have always owned either Sigs, H&Ks or Walthers of all kinds. My current everyday carry piece is the Walther PPS which i love. It is slim, accurate...

    XS front sight dead after three mags!

    I just ordered a set of XS Big sights for my Walther PPS and it came in Friday. Installed the sights and really liked how they looked. The acquisition of the front sight is super fast. I tried it with lights off and the front and rear lit up pretty bright green. I allowed the loctite to dry...

    BAR not cycling?

    Best survival knife for under $200???

    Looking for a all around knife. I would prefer a blade length in the 6-7" range. So far i have looked at the RAT-7, SOG Seal Team, RAT Cutlery RC-6, Becker 7 and Cold Steel SRK. The more i read the more confused i am:) Money is really not an object. I would prefer a $200 knife that per say is...

    Weekend fun with my Barret M82CQ pics and video:)

    Took out the Barrett M82 CQ this weekend for some fun. The range i went to only had a 100yard range but i decided to do some controlled shots and also some rapid fire shots to explore the our limitations combined. I was quite impressed actually. All the talk about how the M82 is not "accurate"...

    Red dot on semi-auto pistol???

    I have a Sig 226 with threaded barrel, trigger work, and AAC Evo-9 can on it that is primarily a home gun that obviously will not be carried. I always wondered how a red dot such as Jpoint/Docter or Burris FastFire would work. I think that sight acquisition would be faster comparing to standard...
