I've seen many a student trade in that 1911 for a Glock as their daily carry piece. Love my 1911's, but not for defensive use.

Perhaps you didn't run the casing all the way down in the resizing die? That would explain the bulge low on the case.

Dirtbike.....I'm officially jealous of your setup! I've been at it for a decade and don't have a setup that nice!

I've built them from scratch but have always stuck to 5.56. I can't imagine a larger caliber would be too different from the build perspective. The parts are pretty much the same, just bigger! 6.5 Grendel is good. All depends what you want to do with it. Heavy hitting at close/medium like a...

Absolutely true. When the time comes you won't magically turn into a super ninja operator! I fear that too many CCW carriers fail to keep up with the need for training and rest solely on the fact that they have that little card in their wallet.

You don't screw around! Nice progress!

Modifications can go from mild to wild. Absolute MUST.....steel sights. The style is mostly personal preference. If you try to rack the slide using Glock factory plastic sights they can pop right out of the dovetail. I like Trijicon HD's or Ameriglo Operators. Tritium on front and rear with...

I should have specified, I've shot Berry's plated bullets. Not their hard cast lead. I would not suggest hard cast lead through a Glock.

I am. Berry's are good. They are plated vs. jacketed. Not a bug difference in functionality between either type. I've run them with no problems.

The TSA guidlines are pretty simple. Here are a few tips though. 1. DO NOT let them place your firearms declaration card on the OUTSIDE of the case. There is no regulation that says it has to be visible. Have them put it inside the case. Having it on the outside is a big STEAL ME sign. 2...

Like I said...the expert!

I couldn't agree more. I'm attending a 3 day Handgun Class in August and hope to pick up 1 more yet this year. If you aren't training and learning, you've already lost.

Good and bad. Good if you only carry in WV. The bad is don't be surprised if other states won't have reciprocity with WV because of their not requiring any training to get a permit. That's one of the reasons I hope Ohio does not adopt a similar policy. I'm fine with the training requirements...

Barrel twist refers to how many inches it takes for the lands & grooves (rifling) to complete a full rotation. The speed of this twist directly affects the stability of the bullet in flight. Much like a football. If it's rotating too slow you get a sloppy spiral and unstable ball. If it's...

It's great to have a resource like that readily available!

I would guess that the vast majority of us on this site so far are firearms enthusiasts and enjoy exercising our 2nd Amendment right. I'd go far as to say that a large majority of us carry on a regular basis. Given those two assumptions.......how many of us have continued to train beyond our...

Congrats! Some people just have it. I on the other hand have never won a raffle in my life. Keep hoping my luck with change with this G43!!!!!

With a name like MeWe I never even bothered visiting the site. Lol

When you do get started, I always pour my first 10 powder drops into the pan and measure the total weight. Divide by 10 and check my average. Some powders meter better than others as Shawn indicated. When working up a new load I will do 20 of a certain drop and than 20 more of +0.2, 20 more of...

The law states you are required to do the following: -Remain Inside the Vehicle -Keep your hands in a visible location -Inform the officer you are carrying at the earliest possibility That said, there are additional things you SHOULD do to make the interaction go as smoothly as possible...
