    Sig rebate

    Well if I had known my Sig 320 came with an $11 million rebate I wouldn’t had sold it.

  2. Well that's my thought anyway, especially in 9mm. Increases noise especially under a roof, building, car, etc. Increases muzzle flash. If added on, increases barrel length. Increased liklihood of malfunction. Increases debris and need for cleaning. Especially a concern if shooting from retention which may be likely in SD situations. This can result in hot gasses in face, possibly metal debris from lead or jacketed bullets. A likely decrease in velocity and even moreso in short barreled firearms. Well that's just for starters and given the rather minimal recoil produced by 9mm.....unneccessary.
  3. I believe that is only true if the case is adjudicated, meaning it went to trial. If simply not charged or tried civil case can still be brought. My HO ins gave me an answer of “it depends” and given the endless circumstances, that seems right. That’s why I’m a CCA member. Better than depending on HO. If they simply pay for any cleanup and property/ medical issues I would be satisfied. Hope never to find out.

    22 LR

    I’m a big fan of Hornady clean and lube. It is a dry lube with no left behind oil to gum things up. Great for cold weather, especially semi auto shotguns. I think it may help your problem.
  5. big fan of your process.....I too start new shooters with .22. Nothing wrong with crawl, walk, run process. Proficency and safety is the key. Nothing wrong with buy another gun as one progresses at their own pace and interest in firearms. Surprising how many instructors as well as students don't understand how tough dbl action revolvers can be to shoot.
  6. I’ll take it. I’m in Knoxville
  7. Not certain that will work in all circumstances. Pistol loads may only use 3 - 4 grains of powder. Brass will vary more than that.
  8. Thought I messed up and double charged a 9mm round. Talking on the phone instead of paying attention. I was having a little temporary issue with my LNL reloader but had a system to measure each round…. just did not recall specifically doing so on one case. So I had about 50 rounds to check. Bought a RCBS collet bullet puller. Great product pulling coated flat nose bullets. No damage to bullets, full recovery of all components. As it turned out…no double charge, but better safe than sorry. I’ve always said one can’t save money reloading if you blow your gun up and/or injure yourself and accumulate medical bills along the way.
  9. Had one. Gave mine to my son, but this was a very reliable, good shooting 1911. Shot it a lot, took a couple of classes with nearly 600 rds fired in each and never a malfunction with standard 230 gr ball factory ammo.
  10. They are a lot of fun especially with friends/family. Even more so if one owns and runs a well-trained retriever. Don't over gun the thing. Medium powered #6 or #5 shot should do fine.
  11. That's because most if not all sheriffs are elected. Police chiefs are appointed, political positions.
  12. I've used quite a bit of BE-86, worked just fine. It has a flash suppressor which I think makes it a little more smokey and dirty. Became hard to find and went to Tru Blue and then it is made in Belgium and no telling when more will arrive. Went back to WSF. Works well and reasonably priced. Stocked up, doubt that I will change unless forced.
