    AHHHH Case rim keeps tearing off

    Agreed, you need better case lube. Imperial sizing wax, or Hornady Unique case lubes, rub a bit on your fingers, then the case. No more stuck cases.

    cast boolit and the 9mm

    I'm not aware of anyone selling powdercoated bullets commercially, right now it seems like a do it yourself venture. Several vendors sell bullets coated using a different process: http://shop.blackbulletsinternational.com/ http://www.bayoubullets.net/ I've shot several thousands of bullets from...

    You're Ultimate Die Selectiion

    I load most of my pistol ammo on a Dillon 550b. I have 9mm dies from RCBS and Lee, I use the Lee sizer/decaper, the Dillon expander, Lee seater, and a Lee taper crimp die (not the Lee factory crimp). I load a lot of different bullets, and I like the easy adjustment of the Lee seater die...

    Educate me on SW3913

    Slim, accurate, reliable. Great carry gun, comfortable enough to shoot at the range all day. Mine isn't going anywhere.

    Good 1911 in 9mm

    I had an STI Spartan, and a Springfield Loaded, both in 9mm. The Loaded was much nicer than the Spartan in fit and finish, trigger quality, looks, and functionality. Both of those had gone down the road, now I have a Springfield Range Officer in 9mm. It runs 100% on factory ammo and my...

    45 Colt Ruger Bisley vs 45 Colt Regular Ruger Blackhwak

    I've shot them both, and much prefer the Bisley. Personal preference though, it's just about which one fits your hands better.

    Yet Another New Mosin Nagant

    Nice 1934 Finn m27, in a Finnish 28/30 stock. Not unusual for the Finns, who were masters of recycling. Show us a pick of the top of the tang, usually the New England Westinghouse receivers were marked there. There will be a letter with an arrow thru it. Beautiful bore-should be a fine...

    It's here, it's here, TNW M31!

    I got one of these about a year ago. It is a hoot to shoot, and turns a lot of heads at the range. Mine came with about a 27# trigger pull, but the manufacturer was great-I ended up sending the trigger group back to them, they massaged it a bit and it's much better. Still not a target...

    A replacement barrel for one of mine dropped right in as well.

    When buying firearms, does grammar irritate you?

    I can get past the bad grammar and spelling, but those nasty, dirty feet in the pictures make it hard to do a deal...:barf: Photo editing software is free and easy to use.

    Springfield 9mm 1911

    I have the Springfield Loaded 9mm as well, mine has never seen a factory round. 90% of the rounds fired through that gun have been lead bullet, 10% poly coat. I use Metalform mags, I get a failure to lock the slide back on the last round occasionally, but other than that, it's been great.

    Best Shoulder Recoil Pad?

    If you've only got a few rifles, I'm sure the ones that attach to the rifle butts are fine. But if you've got quite a few rifles, and like to shoot several guns in one range outing, I think the PAST pads are perfect. I have a magnum version of the PAST pad you posted a pic of, 30-06, 8mm...

    9mm 1911

    Another vote for the Springfield Loaded, mine is a super gun, reliable and accurate.

    Any Krag owners?

    I think you did fine on price. I see sportered Krags around here going for $250-$350. Some folks asking more, don't think they often get it, though. If the bore is good, it should be a fine shooter, especially with the receiver sight. Congrats!

    Does anyone make a substance...tape to deslick an H&K grip.

    Go ahead and laugh, but I use hockey stick tape. One roll will last forever, so nearly free, and your hand will not slip, wet or dry, hot or cold. Looks? Not so much:scrutiny:

    Reloading question

    I have one of the semi auto Suomi's, and mine functions fine with normally loaded 9mm ammo. I have been using 130g polycoat bullets from BBI, and WSF. How many rounds do you have through yours? Maybe it needs a bit of breaking in, or a lube job?

    1911 weight/recoil question

    Full size steel 1911 is a pussycat to shoot. I'm female, I've taught many women to shoot pistols, and I think every one of them loved the 1911. I used to own a Colt Defender, an alloy frame 3" gun, and currently have a lightweight Officer's, 3.5" barrel. Both are snappier than the full size...
