Is this one better than the show at the Frankiln ag expo center? The last two shows I went to there were awful. The whole place used to be shoulder to shoulder. Now you can drive a dump truck thru the isles and not hit anything.

Welcome back.

I started hunting one these down this week. Being a first 1911 for me, this one fits the beer budget to learn with.

Nice purchase. I've been looking around for a holster for my S&W 686 6". All I can find are shoulder rigs. I have a cheap nylon one for toting to the range, but it doesn't due to well hanging off a belt. Cowboy styles work, but that's not me.

[quote name='graycrait' timestamp='1354645815' post='854809'] Flitz on the end of the cylinder works if, like your revolver, is stainless. Flitz will work on the frame too. [/quote] Cylinder cleans up nice with the Kleenbore cloth. Might have to try Flitz on the frame. Thanks graycrait.

Kleenbore Lead Away cloth is what I'm using now. Looks clean until I make another pass on it and comes up dirty still.

Started getting back into knives since I don't have the funds to finish filling up my gun safe. I have a few folders that my dad bought me way back. Recently realized Ka-bar is a good knife. Just looking for a year maybe and any other information on this. https://elqsog.bay.livefilestore.com/y1mz84X-AjjIusyR-RxWwu8DoAfLS2nA3bKlTvcKlxQvWRftENnsOL8Er8ynvFpb-fqhIWWMT0APCv8tmAOm6T-HPxvED4gkheN_lIIlfzIkSZb7d071Dnj5A/IMG_6998.JPG?psid=1

They got my $10. And what JPS said.

.22lr and mag 9mm 38sp/357 .40 12g 45acp hopefully next.

Electric keypad on my Sentry is going on 5 years without a hiccup. I have it located in my garage, wish it wasn't, but that's were had to go.

Cleaning a handgun has never been an issue for me. The one that never seems to get 100% clean is my 686(Stainless). Around the cylinder takes most of the time, but it ends up being free of powder (burn) marks. The frame itself is where I am having issues. Seems like I could clean all day and still be turning the cloth to find a clean spot on the rag. I'm not looking to change the finish or polish it to mirror like quality, just want the residue off. Any suggestions?

Nice stuff right there. I too am curious about the extension on the 33rd mag. I've got two of these, but if I can stuff a few more rounds in it that would be great.

Spring Hill PD used this. One of the local elementary schools was used for training during the summer.

Stopped in this afternoon. Inventory is a little better than their website shows. Pricing is actually good/average compared to the shops in Columbia and Franklin. Had a few AR's from PSA that looked sharp. Dad and two sons operating the place. Still getting inventory going, but looks to be a nice place once stocked up.

[quote name='UncleJak' timestamp='1352834480' post='844911'] Keep the 870. I traded mine a few years ago and regret it. [/quote] Not selling this one. I sold my double barrel 20 gauge a few years ago and kicking myself still. Just thinking about "updating" it. After online searching, I'm thinking I will get another. Two picked out now. Remington 870 (#5077) or a Mossberg 500 (#50780).

Currently looking around for an 18" shotgun for home SD/SHTF type of situations. I have an older 870 magnum from my deer hunting days that sits right now. Being an 870, would it be better just to order an 18" barrel and let it be or just pickup another shotgun? About $170 for the barrel or +/- $360 for a new setup. On the fence either way. Oh and getting the tube to hold 6 and on and on. Seems like a new shotgun would be easier. Did I answer my own question, maybe.

http://springhillarmory.com/index.html Not too much known other than the website. Stopped by after dinner tonight and closed at 6. Might stop in next week. It won't take long to stroll around.

Wife told me about this today. Apparently I've been driving by the shop since Halloween. Website needs help for sure. Anyone know about this place yet?

[quote name='D3vo' timestamp='1351996128' post='838635'] Sometimes reviews are earned, but I purchased 2 G19 magazines and the order arrived promptly via the US Postal Service two weeks ago. One more thing don't believe that 24 hour sale gimmick. This sale has been on at least two weeks. [/quote] I ordered some 33 round magazines without a hitch earlier this year. Cheapest I found online.

He worked there and was OC'ing? Might have to dust off the 686 and check him out tomorrow. Only other time I've seen an employee carrying was at a gun shop, besides LEO of course.

“She was quickly searched, revealing a Walther P22 handgun in her shirt pocket,†Read more: Herald Citizen - Mom arrested for taking gun into school Must have been a big pocket to have a P22 in there.

Purdy. 1911 is still on my wish list. I like my 686 too, just takes a long time to clean.

30mm is a bit large. Most of the regular scopes for 22s are not much smaller, except longer. Most of the ones I've seen online are around 30mm or so. When it's squashed into 4 or so inches its looks rediculous. I'll give a go next week.

Last go around then I'll do the photobucket thing.
