    Which Handgun Caliber(s) Do You Think Would Be the Last To Go Extinct? The First?

    Specifically the "common" calibers seen in the USA. In my opinion, I feel like 9mm would be the #1 caliber that isn't going anywhere, any time soon. Along with 9mm, I'd also throw in .357 mag, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, .38 Spl, and .380 ACP. I feel that calibers like .25 ACP and .32 ACP have the...

    Colt Python stainless 4" model ... a 27 year old tale that's not over yet.

    I bought this Colt Python new for $750 in March of 1993 from Code 3 Equipment Inc. when I lived in Portland, Oregon. It's my understanding that Colt discontinued the Python in 1990 so maybe this was new old stock purchased from Colt directly or another dealer, but $750 was a lot of money for me...

    Your Favorite Semi-Auto Pistol Caliber and Why

    I'm just having the 9mm blues slowly changing out all of my semi-auto pistol calibers to 9mm. It first started as a cost thing and now has accelerated with all of the new goodies (e.g. Rx optics, Sig phosphate coatings on their service pistols, etc) coming in 9mm only. My favorite revolver...

    Newbie, Want to Reload, Have Some Q's (45/70, 10mm, .357)

    Problem loading revolver rounds... it's been a while

    Okay, here is the story, if you don't want to read it, skip to the next paragraph. ;) I was helping a friend reload some .357 mag yesterday, and it has been a while since either of us had done it. We both remember the basics, but we have forgotten some of the tricks we use. I'm sure some of you...
