Same here. IIRC it had a starter on the floor. And of course a dimmer switch. Found a familiar pic!

I actually couldn't get the link to load and play. I did a copy/paste to youtube and listened a few minutes ago. Powerful song, a gut punch as mentioned. Thank you for posting @Alleycat72

I'm giving the family fresh pepper spray and an inert trainer unit. Just trying to be practical... and I wanted a fresh couple of units for myself https://pompepperspray.com/ Oh, and cash.

I am so sorry to read this and Prayers sent for Aueagle and his family, and all touched by this loss. Extra prayers for you and yours Greg. God Bless to all.

I haven't fired one but did get to handle, dry fire, and take the slide off of one and "look under the hood" yesterday. The range was busy, so just a quick look. It's very "Gen 3 Glock" like. The grip feels good to me, but I long ago shortened and modified my well worn G19 and this Ruger is very similar. The trigger is good for a Glock-like trigger, Smooth and no glitch, moderately short reset. ETA. I shoot factory Glock triggers fwiw. A lot of the parts looks interchangeable with Glock. I definitely like the sights. All metal instead of the Glock placeholders, good sized and clear to see with my aging eyes. Definitely like these sights. The slide has plenty of holes to accommodate a RDS. From what I've seen online with various RDS mounted there is a need for a quality adapter as the slide does not support a RDS fore and aft. (My slides are milled so I'm biased). Hopefully one will go into the rental rotation soon and I'll get to shoot one. It has potential. But I've been disappointed before LOL Time will tell.

2.7/148 is THE classic .38 load. I use Missouri Bullet Company coated DEWC. Very accurate and mild recoiling. As a matter of fact I have some in my range bag for tomorrow. My Model 10 Smith loves them,

Welcome to you and yours Damien. To quote "Bob Lee Swagger", “Welcome to Tennessee, patron state of shootin' stuff.”

I think Titegroup is a decent powder personally Bill. My preferences are W 231, Unique, and Bullseye. But I'm happy to have any usable powder these days. I have loads that I worked up using Tiegroup and several other powders for 9mm, .38 spl, and .32 H&R Mag/Spl as these are the rounds/calibers I shoot the most. Having options is always a good thing.

OH, I would be hesitant about factory seconds. But that's only as long as I can get primers at a semi-reasonable price. I would never say never,

I've been using SA primers (Small pistol) for better than a year now, several thousand in both 9mm Glocks and all manner of S&W and LCR revolvers. .38 spl. .357 and .32 S&W long and .32 H&R mag. They work great. I've seated them on my Dillon and with my Lee single stage press without problems. FWIW all of my Smith Revolvers have either standard or Wolff standard powder rib mainsprings. Of course the LCR's set off pretty much anything anyway. I have a buddy back in Louisiana that has had good experiences with Ginex. I haven't tried them. I've purchased a fair amount of either pulled or blemished 9mm bullets from American Reloading, but no primers. But I'm tempted to try some Ginex. American Reloading ships their bullets fast, no extra charge and by FedEx. Good solid company from my experiences.

@BigK I believe that was David (Mosley?) (DLM or DLM37015). There's some discussion about him in another thread. Great guy and very knowledgeable. Lot's of good folks in this thread: https://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/133656-762x39-gunpowder/#comment-1744353 @Bill P I haven't seen much of any Alliant Powder for a while now. And $40.00 - $50.00 + for pound when you do see it. And that's usually with Hazmat/shipping or some sort of extra. I have a few pounds left from the more reasonably priced days and delegate it to specific favored .38 loads.

Already have my DVR, or whatever it's called these days, set and ready to watch and record! Definitely a big Taylor Sheridan fan and have high hopes for this last season.

Well that stinks!

I really like this series. Good characters and interesting storyline. Season 1 was pretty darn good and if these 2 episodes are any indication this season may well be better. Surprised me as well to see Taylor Sheridan. Good stuff! He's got "skills".

Thank you Sir. That's what I was looking for. I should have mentioned I'll primarily be using coated bullets, plated, or fmj. More than likely in 9mm for this powder. I'll be chronoing as I build my loads. I've read that about the flash suppressant on Enos, iirc. No big deal for me. I've run across a decent deal and thought I'd give it at try. And Dirty I can deal with. I've used HS 6 afterall.

I know the title says 1973. But we used to buy it at some dive grocery stores on the Edge of the French Quarter in 1972...I think We couldn't afford fine wines like Mad Dog! Sleep a bit in Jackson Square the next morning. Even the bums wouldn't bother us.

Warning! Well life intervened and I was fortunate enough to locate a good supply of powders I had been using for a few decades. I probably have enough Unique, W231, and Bullseye to outlast me. BUT I would appreciate anyone's current experience with this powder. Alliant BE 86. There's plenty of load data available, just seeking any personal experiences and opinions. I primarily handload 9mm, .38 spl, and .32 H&R mag (which really isn't a "Magnum" in my mind...). Oh and the occasional .357 mag.

That's heartbreaking @TripleGGG. Prayers sent

My Lord. Prayers for all. Thanks to all for sharing the information.

I have had the extreme honoring of meeting Ginger. I know she loved her "Daddy". My most sincere condolences. Words simply cannot express my feelings. You have an awesome little angel on your shoulder my friend. God Bless. RIP Ginger. Prayers sent today and always.

Prayers for the family. RIP and Thank you Sir.

Thanks for the head's up. I watched this over the past few days and it's pretty decent. Interesting take on the subject(s). My local cable/internet carrier just added Paramount+ at no additional charge (they charge enough already!). I've been watching 1923. Being a Yellowstone fan I am thoroughly enjoying it. Well made with good characters thus far. Taylor Sheridan does good work.

Congratulations Randy! Thank you for posting AJ.

Welcome aboard.
