      What are your training class plans for 2023?

      If you plan on taking more than 1 class / year at MALC you should go ahead and join 7CCRT. It cost $100, but you get $100 off of most of the classes. There are some great classes - the pistol/rifle classes are good.

      Well, it looks like I'll be around this weekend and I am NROI certified. If you need just one more to open a squad I can help.

      Etched reticle red dot?

      I've got one of those and a couple of the 3x Trihawks. They are very nice.

      MALC Training

      MALC provides very good training. I joined 7ccrt just because I know I will take more than one class a year. So far, I've done defensive pistol 1&2, defensive rifle 1&2, Libre knife fighting (very recommended), Civilian Response to Active shooter, and Situational / Behavioral Awareness. The...

      Springfield Hellcat, tricking it out for fun

      I like mine. It is snappy. It'll want to break your grip after a shot or two. What I did that really helped is I got the medium aggressive talon grip and I put a little patch where support thumb rides on the rail. I do shoot a box of ammo at least twice a month with it just to keep sharp with...

      Cast up some nice 45 cal boolits!

      535 grain Slug that has four petals that fragment on impact. I send them around 1500 fps. https://photos.app.goo.gl/NHFQiyzmSyJsG7ot9

      Cast up some nice 45 cal boolits!

      I'll powder coat them. Typically, I just cast with ww lead and the hp boolits generally fragment when they hit water/gel and the solids generally just pass on though without dumping a lot of energy. We did do some testing on some 40 cal boolits and they expanded nicely. Do in a month or two...

      Cast up some nice 45 cal boolits!

      Finally got around to trying the MP 452-200 mold with the penta points! Cast about 14 lbs. I used some nice clean 1:25 lead so they should expand nicely.

      Springfield Hellcat, tricking it out for fun

      I think smoothing out the internals smoothed out the trigger pull and the different springs dropped the pull weight a little. It's still a fairly heavy pull and still has a distinct wall. With the sentinel, you can still see a couple mm of the top of the sights and some color of the front...

      Springfield Hellcat, tricking it out for fun

      I carry a hellcat with a swampfox sentinel. I have done the following to it: 1) Put talon grips plus a little pad where my support thumb indexes. 2) Polished all internals that contact in a trigger pull (the striker safety plunger seems to be the most important) 3) Replaced safety plunger, sear...
