  1. S&W 640 in 357 mag has a pinned sight. I replaced my sight with the Big Dot. Comes on target real fast at close range.
  2. I am a Glock fan, the G19 is hard to beat, but I have never own a SW M&P in any caliber. One day I'll buy a used one. I tried to buy a M&P 45c but we couldn't agree on price.
  3. Can this be edited someway by person who posted classified? On some other forums it has an advance editor that gets you to title to make corrections or edit "sold".
  4. The Ruger Mark II is drilled for a rail and the Mark III comes with one or you can add a mount that clamps over receiver and barrel.
  5. I receive today 500 Berry 124 g plated FP bullets to load some 357 Sig on my Dillon 550B this weekend.
  6. I like the Ruger Super Redhawk in a 44 Mag. This is an all around hunting/plinking gun. I have had several and then I had to have a Super Redhawk 454 Casull. This can put 300g bullets out at 1550fps. This round is expensive to shoot unless you reload. I would like my 44 mag back.
  7. I would be interested in your results. I've never tried #7 but have used #9 in 454 Casull at around 1550 fps and a 300g xtp bullet.
  8. I too am shooting out of Glock 33, recoil with Accurate #5 is not bad.Does Universal Clays burn clean, what velocity?
  9. I setup my Dillon 550 to reload 357 Sig today. I used 8.3 g of Accurate #5 with 124 g bullet, approximately 1100fps. #9 data said compressed load. I tried using Berry's 124 g round nose but could not get 1.14" OAL(per Accurate website) due to taper on bullet. I had some Hornady 124 xtp that I was able to set OAL at 1.152, just where bullet started tapering. Grouping was decent, but Accurate #5 burns dirty, not clean. Does the Accurate #9, which I have several pounds, burn any cleaner. Do you get compressed loads with bullets seated correctly? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
  10. I have been convinced, for I ordered a Crossbreed Super Tuck for by Glock 33 and/or Glock 26. Now a wait of 4-6 weeks for delivery. thanks TGO
  11. I added a SS guiderod and pearce grips to mags on my G33, seems to have helped some. Guess I'll just have to shoot more and adjust. I sure do like the 357 Sig ballastics. Now to find a good holster for daily carry.
  12. My DeSantis IWB summer special (leather) does good while in standing position. Uncomfortable in sitting position especially in car. Carry is about 4:00. Will the Galco Kingtuck or Crossbreed Super Tuck eliminate the pressure of gun inprinted on lower back/kidney area?
  13. I'm thinking about ordering one for my Glock 33/26. I have a DeSantis IWB that I use now. It carries the Glocks good and somewhat comfortable. What does the Super tuck give you different from a good IWB?
  14. I have a Glock 33 Gen3 that I would like to have the ability to shoot 9mm rounds, cheaper. I know I'll need a 9mm conversion barrel, will I need a 9mm magazine also or will the 357 Sig work? I know Lone Wolf makes 9mm conversion barrels, who else does and which is better? If I do this conversion, should I keep my Gen3 Glock26? comments/help. thanks
  15. I am only aware of two gunstores in this area - Toliver's in Manchester and Outpost Armory near Murfreesboro. Are there others in middle to SE Tn? Looking for one with assortment of hand and long guns,ammo, reloading supplies.
  16. I have both the Glock 26 and the PM9. I like them both but the PM9 is my pocket carry, sweet trigger, accurate and reliable.
  17. I finally found a used G33 on Gun Broker at a some-what reasonal price, if it weren't for shipping. My FFl should receive next week. The G33 has dual springs, how do you replace springs on recoil rod? The rod does not appear to come apart on my G26. On by G36, I order dual springs contained on ss guide rod at 19#, 2# heavier than standard. This helped recoil on the G36.
  18. I will have to try one of the Knoxville Expo shows but a 2.5 hr drive one way. I have been to many Birmingham shows when I lived in Alabama, great shows. I will stick to TN shows, just incase I find a handgun I cann't live without.
  19. Enjoy your new Gen4 G19. You picked one of the best Glocks on the market. I have a G21 in Gen 4 and my G36 and G26 are Gen3. They are like potato chips, can't just have one. I have a G33 Gen3 on the way.
  20. Group size was much better after VQ trigger and Mark II hammer bushing. I shot three different brands of ammo: CCI Mini-Mag average score 92.5, PMC Scoremaster average score 91.5, and Remington Thunderbolt average score 89.0. On standard 25 yd target at 12 yards, all 40 grain bullets. Might install my red-dot optics to see if I can get more 10's, but I hate to add more weight.
  21. I found Viola range but never shot there. I have a 25 yd and 100 yd range cleared on my back 5 acres. So I can shoot so long as weather is good. Thanks for the trigger advice.
  22. I installed VQ trigger, removed magazine disconnector, spring and Mark III hammer bushing and installed Mark II hammer bushing.I lost safety detent for a while. I crawed around on floor and finally found it. Put gun back together and adjusted overtravel screw and trigger screw, then used blue loctite on threads. Trigger feels alot better. I will put some ammo thru it tomorrow and see if bullet impact group tightens up. thanks TGO for help
  23. New VQ trigger and Mark II hammer bushing to be delivered 3/5. Do I have to disassemble Hammer, sear and trigger groups to install, or can I just remove hammer pin part way, remove Magazine disconnector and spring, raise disconnector, then remove trigger group, install new trigger, lower disconnector, install Mark II hammer bushing, then install trigger pin and hammer pin? It looks like just pulling hammer pivot pin and trigger pivot pins part way out that this can be done. comments
  24. I have had both PM9's and a PM40 and all were flawless, no malfunctions. Accuracy, trigger pull, and weight/slimness are better than a Glock. I own three Glocks and like them too. My experience with Kahrs has been excellant.
