      Tokarev 12ga bullpup

      Palmetto had these on sale. I resisted buying one for a couple weeks but finally gave in. I took it out today to try it out. I didn’t think to take a variety of ammo, just a box of Winchester white box 2 3/4” 1 1/8 3dram. I ran 20 rounds through it but not a single one fully cycled the action...

      55g .223 in 7” twist barrel

      I primarily load for precision shooting so the majority of my rifles have either 7 or 8” twist barrels using 75g Hornady HPBT projectiles. I have a few thousand 55g that I use for plinking ammo. I’ve always read that 7” twist is too fast for 55g accuracy. I’m curious if I’d be wasting my time...

      Possession of a suppressor

      I have a couple pistols that can accept a can. Is it legal for me to borrow my buddy’s suppressor for a range trip if he’s not with me? I don’t actually know anyone that would let me borrow one but I’m just curious about the possession issue. It would be a legally owned and registered can, just...

      Glock 22 to 9mm conversion

      Some months ago I bought a Bear Arsenal 9mm conversion barrel for my Glock 22. I tried it with the stock 40 cal mag but had a lot of troubles feeding/extracting. Some time later I bought a couple generic mags for 9mm. They helped but still feeding/extracting issues. Saturday I bought a factory...

      What makes this so special?

      I’ve seen this HK 9mm SP5K pistol on sale at PSA in their email ads. It’s listed at $2999.99. Why $3K for this pistol? What makes it so special? Just curious, Matt

      I broke my Canik Mete SFT!

      Not really broke, I just got it today and ran a couple hundred rounds through it on the way home from the gun shop. While shooting, I thought I’d like the mag release on the right side. It was a simple matter to pop off the slide and pull the catch spring and then flip the mag catch. The real...

      I want a better blade!

      I’ve been carrying this same Gerber design folder for 10+ years. I love everything about it except it doesn’t hold an edge. I’m sure a lot of that is the way I use it. I cut up a lot of cardboard in the course of a week as well as the usual uses. I usually sharpen it on Mondays and it’s good for...

      Wet processing for shiny brass

      I’ve forgotten how I used to get my brass real shiny looking. I was thinking I used Dawn dish soap but I also remember using or planning to use Lemi-shine. I have both the Frankford wet tumbler and a Lyman vibratory bowl. I started last week cleaning pistol cases with the Frankford cleaning...

      Aftermarket case feeder on my Dillon 650

      In order to save more than a few bucks, years ago I bought a casefeeder off of EBay. At the time I was only thinking of .223 so that was the only shell plate I got. Fast forward to today, I’m thinking I want to feed some pistol cases. I don’t find any plates on eBay except Dillon and can’t find...

      Generic pistol loads

      Years ago I got into reloading for my precision rifles and bulk reloading for my ARs. I’ve been on a break for about 4 years from reloading and just recently got started back up. I never really loaded any pistol rounds but have kept all my brass and bought a good supply of components and...

      What’s wrong with my .308 brass?

      I started to process some of my .308 brass this past week. I’m using same full length sizing die I always have. But now hardly any will go into my case gage to depth. They are all stopping short of full depth anywhere from .030-.125 and the won’t chamber in my bolt gun. I went as far as buying a...

      Newby pistol reloader question

      I’ve been reloading .308 and .223 for years. Have never really loaded for pistol with the exception of 20 rds of .40 in a class I took 8-10 years ago. I’ve been saving my brass for a few years and decided to do some processing today. On rifle cases both the neck and body get sized as well as the...

      Camping trip this summer to Maine

      Wife and I are retiring end of May and have wanted to get up to Maine for a while. We’ll be pulling a camper with my truck. I don’t see any way to go other than through NY. I know a pistol is essentially forbidden but what about a rifle or two? I have googled a bit but everything I find deals...

      Illinois gun in my vehicle

      I know I’ve seen this on here before but my search skills are lousy. I am visiting a friend west of Chicago tomorrow. I want to be sure I’m okay to keep my pistol and my PCC in my vehicle for the trip. I seem to recall reading you can carry inside your vehicle as long as you have a license to...

      Beretta A-300 Trident

      I know Dick’s is second most hated around here with CTD claiming the top spot. I’ve been wanting an A-300 wood stock shotgun for a while. Everywhere I have ever looked they are $700 and up. Dick’s has them on sale at $599, pick up in Avon this afternoon. can anyplace else compete on that...

      City boy gardening-watermelon questions

      I decided to plant some watermelons this year. I did it once before and loved the homegrown melons. I planted them just off my back deck that’s about 18” above ground level. I’ve been out of town a couple weeks and came back to find several vines and a couple softball sized melons growing on the...

      Quick change mounts?

      I’m setting up a new bench, 72”x 36” hardwood top. Bench will be firmly attached to the wall. I’m thinking I’d like some kind of quick change system so when my various presses aren’t needed they can be stored under the bench and I have a clean bench top. I’ve seen one company called InLine...

      Furnace issues

      Thought I’d see if anyone has ran into this or knows how to fix it. In our rental house, the temperature is not staying consistent. Thermostat is set at 72. It has dropped as low as 67 before the furnace finally kicked on. I can power cycle the switch on the furnace and it will immediately...

      Purchasing rifle parts

      I’m having trouble trying to buy a few parts for one of my rifles. The rifle is a Savage 11VT. I need the springs in the bolt and a new firing pin. Savage wouldn’t sell me the parts and looking online hasn’t been successful either. I was told by Savage they would only sell parts to one of their...

      FA lower parts kit

      I was looking for a lower parts kit for an AR pistol build I am working on. I have had pretty decent service and performance from nearly everything I’ve bought from BearCreek. BearCreek was my first stop to look for a LPK. A quick search of their site brings up only one LPK for $119.99. I’m...
