The CZickness XLIII prepping for winter.

Morning all

Spent the evening with daughter at the bench de-priming .223 cases. It was very productive. I kept telling her it was like a slot machine, except you win with every pull. She seems very interested in the process, which is nice to see in a 12 year old kid nowadays. Her interest wasn't something I was planning on, so it's adding another level of enjoyment to the whole experience.

I still drool over this one.

It is top dog in my collection

TD, are you planning on wet tumbling or dry? I do either depending on my mood and patience. With .223, I lube, decap, size and trim, then wet tumble. With handgun, I tend to clean in a vibratory cleaner first, then just run them through the press. The residual rouge from the walnut media acts like a case lube when running pistol loads. It’s messy though.

I'd like a 1911 in 10mm for one of the very purchases in 2022 that I plan on making.

Morning all...

Only issue with a couple hours of late re-sleep yesterday is that I didn't get to sleep until 1am this morning and then was up at 6am

A 10mm 1911 can be a handy tool to have

Morning, Folks. Just got back from the dentist. First tooth pulled as an adult. Went well.

Have a good day, y'all.

That firearm might be the ultimate execution of a CDE. Fine weapon.

Love those grips 88.

GM all. Late bloomer; breakfast w/ Vin-meister and straight home to play on the bench
Thanks to Vin and T-double for making the Colt great again! She's a respectable pony now.

All removed bits (lpvo and such) will be used for the 14.5"er.

That is a great looking simple weapon. Love it.
