8K is HUGE!!! Though not that unreachable now that I have the 650 pumpin out huge amounts of 45. I guess I'll have to test the longevity....I'll give you a report if any thing ever goes wrong.

So after a bunch of research on the 1911's I've finally come up with the final answer. This was my first GunBroker deal and was easier than expected. I found many people questioning the reliablity and quality of recent Kimber's, well this one seems to have proven itself after 10yrs old and 8k down the pipe. Along with the deal were 3 mags, bore snake, new wolf spring(16lbs). No oem handgrips, no box or papers, but a clean serial numbe. What kind of a deal was this, for $680.01$ Opinions are welcome......hit me!!!

FedEx always leaves it at my doorstep without a signature, so just use my address...though no gaurantees you'll get the exact amount you ordered. ....for the 9mm....if you can make a drive to the Outpost, they had a pallet full of 1k boxes. I don't recall the exact price, ~$390.00, call before you quote me.

I'll attest to the awesome deal!!! At the counter when I was being "sold" my first handgun, S&W MP9, the guy said "oh...and you can use the rebate which gets you two additional mags!"....I thought wow, what a sales pitch....(Would I buy a car if it came with 2 more spare tires?).......sold on the gun!!!.....mags came about 4-6weeks later.......BHO came into power......mags went up.....happy loyal customer.

I like showing up at the range with a self made can of heat, .45 230gr RN. You can shoot until your hand hurts.

I think a kinetic hammer should be on your list of items to purchase. Its always nice to salvage a bullet every now and again. JMTC

Like I said....I already knew the answer...just didn't want to take a 45 min drive to exchange them. Anybody want to buy 3K of CCI 350's??

I know when you ask question, you most likely already know the answer. So here goes! I just got back from the Bench and looked at my purchase of 3K primers. They are CCI's 350 (large pistol magnum). I thought I had purchased the 300's(large pistol). So the question is, would anyone here use the 350 instead of the 300 for .45 auto 200gr SWC with win-231? Thanks for the opinions ahead of time.

MusicMan, Check this out....I just posted It http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17748&page=3 What are you talking about with the wheely's taking more than an auto. I'd love to here how to get a little more umph/ft/sec??? Oh..if you live close enough to check out the new machine, we can drink the blue kool-aid together.

Take a look at my new set up!!!!! Just got finished setting up my 650. I put out about 100 rounds in 6 hours. Now that's it up an running....watch out zombies:D

A 625 is an awsome piece.....here's a picture of a FTF at an R&K downtown for $475.

I'm in the same boat as for cost..... You should search this forum for the name "Uselton's." Let us know what you find. Welcome to the site!!

Looks like I'm going to have to get an XD45 to see if I will have the same problem.

Welcome to the group. (south Franklin myself)

I got back from the Expo in Franklin. Just as predicted....nothing really of interest. Ammo sales are still jacked up....that probably why there were so many cases still sitting there mid day. I figure it's like going to the museum, $10 to look around. A little history and some education.

I think you have to use about a 100 grit on your hands, then it might grip better. The first and best 9mm I've ever purchased!!!!

Those are some good deals if you can't get anything local!!

That's very nice of you....too bad I live I live in the middle of the state.

I would wonder if that would ever leave my safe.

2 on the left are speer and the 2 on the right are IMI brass. You will notice on the bottom of the casing that the two brass cases are not right! This happened while belling and priming the cases. I'm using RCSB dies and have a single stage press. I think these two brass casings are a smidge to big and don't fit in the dies properly. All the other 200 brass cases fit flawlessly. This is also posted for help on another site. Thanks in advance

There have been way to many one hour lunches which have turned into 2.5hrs sessions. Its the work of creation that I love. 300gr HP .50ae boxes of 50 at a time. I'm not sure what is going to give me Carpel Tunnel first, single stage loading, or the firing of the DE .50ae. JMTC

I just got headquarter's approval for a safe. That means clean out a large corner in the garage and ebay about $1500 worth of stuff. Mark is a nice guy willing to show the noob a quality product. I will try contribute my knowledge as I go. "If you build it they will come" This is a green light for future purchases.

Good call on the "transferring from her to you!" They are all mine....yah, that's the ticket......I will definitely curbside check in. If someone does have a "pimp" pelican case that they are willing to lend for trip to-and-fro....I would be honored. Thoughts......(Remember the PIF section)

Wow....that thread is really long and very confusing. If I can summarize what is going to happen then. All guns are divied up to me..cool..The long guns can be aquired, no FFL, and then transported to TN. The handgun will have to be transfered via FFL. and then if I wanted to ship the long guns to myself: Here the link from that previous post: http://www.nraila.org/GunLaws/Federal/Read.aspx?id=60 The excerpt from that site, under "Shipping Firearms." -A person may ship a rifle or shotgun to himself, in care of a person who lives in another state, for purposes of hunting.- This tells me that if I wanted to ship the long guns back to myself, for hunting purposes, then that would be OK. If I still don't have this correct..please let me know. Also, what is the cost break down of buying two gun cases(TSA cert) vs. FFL for 5 guns? Thanks
