For those who may not know, this gun will shoot .32 S&W, .32 S&W Long, .32 H&R Magnum and .327 Federal magnum ammo. The only difference in these 4 rounds is case length and powder charge.4 points

I have one and sometimes wish I didn’t. They are entirely too much fun and quite accurate. It’s like a Pez dispenser for ammo. Mine is the basic model with a “traditional” stock. It wears a Sig Romeo 5 on top. Wish I could shoot it every day. Basically, I highly recommend.2 points

It boils down to situational awareness. It may not stop a crime, but it may keep you from being the victim. I was sitting in my truck yesterday while my wife grabbed a pick up order. Two young dudes where walking all over the parking lot. They eventually came and stood in front of my truck talking. At that time I held my P365 in my lap and made eye contact with them. They walked off, but they were still walking all over the parking lot when we left. Typical of my wife, see didn’t see the big deal.2 points

You chose wisely. Reloading is not hard at all but it does require some attention to detail, like ensuring the powder charge remains constant along with bullet seating depth and crimping. Often the equipment needs to be tweaked during a session. It’s best to learn on a single stage rather than a progressive starting out.2 points

As you can see.... there's not a huge amount of barrel to be concerned with bedding I'm planning on taking it as far as the rear sight hump & damming off in front of it.1 point

On the bright side though, I got all the metalwork done today & my pillars arrived from Midway. I'm hoping to set the pillars tomorrow, skim bed the action on Monday & get to the range next weekend!1 point

I used to use gun scrubber but I’m out. I removed the grips and wiped it down with a microfiber cloth then applied the wax with my finger. Buffed it off with a clean microfiber. Gonna do a couple more this weekend.1 point

We know the part about being an heiress is true at least. Who knows about the rest. If she's that rich but decided to still work as a teacher that says a lot. If she was taken for ransom that's better than the motive I originally imagined.1 point

If what is being posted on social media is to be believed this situation is starting to sound like the plot of a movie on the Lifetime channel including a massive inheritance, drug addiction, and the nanny.1 point

I cheated, looking it up on IMDB. The woman is Carolyn Jones (Morticia Adams). Surprising to read there that she her natural hair color was strawberry blonde. Even with IMDB the other guy took me a while, but it appears to be Dan Terranova.1 point

Praying for her safe return and for her family! You just can't be too cautious anymore!!! Always be aware of your surroundings and women and children shouldn't be alone if they can help it. Such is the state of our country. Things are just getting worse and worse.1 point

@ShamGlock our Golden Domers do have a tough year ahead, but I'm optimistic for at least an even season. I think overall champions will be someone we aren't expecting this year. SEC will go to Georgia this year, as much as I'd like to see Bama win it. The Vols should have at least a couple victories home this year.1 point

Sorry to say, but right now is not a good time to start reloading. While the ammo shortage is starting to lighten up, there is still a shortage of reloading components. Especially powder and primers. What little can be found is too expensive for any real savings. You may need to give it a bit more time before taking the plunge. OTOH, now would be a good time to shop for used equipment as some folks are getting out of reloading due to the lack of components. Others bought gear, but never got off the ground. Having said that, I've been reloading on an old RCBS Rockchucker single stage press for about 40 years now. It may be slow, but it still works like a charm. Just finished a big batch of 9mm today.1 point

Smith & Wesson Military & Police 1st Model of 1899. More often simply called the Model of 1899. The lack of a locking lug at the front of the ejector rod and the round butt are specific to this model. This was the original .38 Special as both the cartridge and the gun were introduced that year. This is the beginning of the entire M&P and later Model 10 line. Manufactured from 1899 to 1902. If you give me the serial number on the bottom of the butt, I may be able to find the exact year.1 point

I've posted my thoughts numerous times on TGO about red dot optics on handguns. I am not an early adopter but I have been on this journey now for about six years and easily have 25-30,000 rounds downrange in classes and leisure shooting with optics on maybe 8-10 different handgun platforms. Suffice it to say that I'm not new at this. IMO, optics on handguns are not the future. They are the present. They are here and now and are already mainstream among serious practitioners of the gun. The advantages far outweigh any disadvantages that still remain despite the rapidly evolving technologies in use. They provide increased speed of target acquisition, improved target and periphery awareness, improved target tracking and allow higher degrees of accuracy than iron sights do. Since the dawn of man when the first person picked up a rock or a stick and hurled it at an animal they were hunting or an adversary they were fighting, we used a single plane for sighting and aligning for the throw. We looked at the target. Rocks and spears don't come with a front sight and a rear sight. We looked at the thing we wanted to hit, we tracked its movement if there was any, and our brains and bodies did the rest through prioperception. Red dots allow us to do the same thing. We don't have to process three planes of a sight picture to use them. We don't use the complicated equation of rear sight (first plane), front sight (second plane) and target (third plane) for our eyes, brains and bodies to coordinate between. We look at the target, we see the dot, we pull the trigger. If you're still stuck in an iron sights world, my condolences. If you've tried a red dot and it "didn't work for you"... you might need a competent trainer to help you unlearn your old ways and learn the better way. It's not the optic, it's you. And the only thing wrong with that is not accepting that fact and working past it. The dot is the way.1 point

I think they’d average a hundred bucks apiece or so, as they are all modern. The Knight would bring a bit more. They’d sell, and they’re just like selling a car wheel....no dealers, background checks, etc. Why don’t you read up on them and shoot them a bit before parting with them? A lot of us really enjoy shooting them, and they can be about as accurate as many modern firearms. Their utility afar outweighs their current value in my opinion. Just he sure to thoroughly clean and oil them after firing, as powder and caps are corrosive! P.S. Make damn sure he didn’t leave any of them loaded before attempting to load them.1 point

The value of used muzzleloaders are determined almost entirely by the condition of the bore. They're a pain to clean so many have very rusty bores and the fact that you can't "see" through them makes it hard to determine the condition.1 point
