  1. I'm with you there!!! The only match primers I ever bought was at a going out of business sale, and I already bought all the regular primers he had.
  2. I know there's one of those converters laying around here somewhere. If I can find it, I'll PM for your address and send it to you. The problem, however, is that the digital converter you'll need to buy to make it work would cost nearly what you'd spend to buy a small digital ready TV.
  3. Send me the primers if you're scared of them. Seriously, it does happen, but you'll likely never see it happen again. I've heard it claimed that some primers require a heavier strike to ignite than other brands. It appears in the picture that you had a good, solid strike. For whatever reason, the primer was bad. When you punch it out, look and see if it contains priming compound. That is very uncommon. I've had a couple of misfires with factory ammo through the years, but I can't remember any with handloads, except some that were due to a weak mainspring in a 100 year old revolver.
  4. People have a hissy fit at the mention of religion in schools. How the hell is the green movement not a religion. It certainly isn't backed be any scientific facts. It is a group of people putting their faith into something they can't prove exists.
  5. Smith and Wesson Revolver.
  6. Thanks guys. Shall I swing by and pick you up, Garufa?
  7. Sounds like it should work well. I may look to see if my wife has any pillow stuffing left. Dacron I believe it is. That would be easier to place over the powder than the oversized piece of gasket paper.
  8. Is it so that I can drive to Anniston Alabama with cash and my handgun carry permit, and return home with a Garand? If so, how's their selection? When's the best time to go? Any other advice you could give would be appreciated.
  9. I've sold hundreds of them, and I've yet to ask for any "papers". The only problem I've had is getting home and wishing I'd have kept it.
  10. You might need rice for june bugs.
  11. Here are two of quite a few casualties that fell to me and the boys this afternoon. We shot several carpenter bees, bumble bees, and wasps. We think the cicadas will be fine sport soon. I'm having good luck with 2.5 grains of Bullseye, then a 3/8" wad cut from gasket paper, then filled to the rim with walnut media, and capped with another gasket paper wad. The only trouble I've found is getting the first wad to go down into the case straight. I seat the second wad with my bullet seating die, and crimp it in place. These aren't any louder than a pop gun, and are deadly to insects at 6-8'. THanks for the suggestion. This is a lot of fun.
  12. I looked this morning, and mine does have a staked front sight ala GI issue.
  13. I went to buy an LC9 this morning. Picked it up, laid it back down, and came home empty handed. It appears they took the LCP and bastardized it. It was top heavy, you could see through the gap between the frame and slide, and although the LCP works fine without a safety, some genius decided the 9MM versoin just had to have one. On the plus side, if there was one, it was cheap, and the sights were easier to see than the LCP's miniscule front sight and groove in the slide.
  14. My mistake, sorry.
  15. No, that's way too high! Why don't you PM me this guy's name and address, and I'll go straighten him out for you. $650 for most anything with a picture of a horsie on it is a fair price nowadays.
  16. I think my RIA Commander has standard dovetail slots. Doesn't the Officer's Model?
  17. The lady in the ebay video will soon have a silicone leak if she practices long enough.
  18. Me thinks this thread will get a very large number of visits.
  19. Am I the only one who thinks scotch tastes exactly like diesel fuel?
  20. Welcome to Tennessee and TGO. Thank you for your service to our country. I'm sorry to hear of your not so pleasant introduction to our state. If I found a person in my home or business uninvited, I consider them to be a threat. A corpse is a lousy witness in court. I'm glad to see you didn't form your opinion of the entire state upon this one incident.
  21. Sorry, I was referring to the banner ads. I agree that I've never seen a pop up ad here either. Sorry for the confusion.
  22. Do you receive extra advertising dollars when a forum member clicks on a pop up ad here, or does it go simply from traffic in the forum. I ask because I'll make an effort to click often of it helps.
  23. Parabellum over at the Sig forum is a good guy. He used to own the smith-wesson forum. If I were a Sig fan, I'd hang out there. Good info, thanks for sharing.
  24. If you buy a quality holster, molded to the gun you are buying it for, a thumb break is no more than decoration, and possibly a hinderance.
