  1. Maybe, but what where they doing in 2011 with all their overpriced stuff? Seriously I think they just want to be able to say they have it, just like you said.
  2. How many grains are your WC and what powder are you using?
  3. It is most likely do to your new, tight chambered LW barrel. You can get the barrel reamed by sending it back to LW.
  4. I fixed it for you.
  5. I use a single stage press so I can't really comment to the quality of that turret press. A turret or a single stage is all I feel comfortable about using. The kit is priced at $119 on Midway but is out of stock.
  6. I bought a lot of HSM and I thought it was great quality. It was very clean and clean burning.
  7. Taurus 1911's and PT92's are exceptions to the Taurus sucks rule, all others... I have never owned a Hi Point but there are some guys that swear by them for HD and EOTWAWKI. I have owned a lot of Keltecs and I personally like the P11 better than the PF9. The P11 is generally cheaper, half the recoil, and uses S&W magazines. It really isn't too much larger either.
  8. City of Knoxville officers will not get Sigs until August or later.
  9. No, the SD is supposed to have worked out the kinks.
  10. Walmart on Gunbarrel has 100rd WWB 45 Auto for $40. There is about 7 boxes as of 4pm.
  11. I have completely decided against it. Replacement barrels are $260 so I would have to rechamber it or find brass and reload for it. That means finding large primers and 45acp rounds. If I could get it rechambered for $100 I would be sitting in it good.
  12. So you don't want to know when a truck is coming in? That makes absolutely no sense. I understand resellers are knowing when it is comIng in but how do they have anymore of an advantage than you? You know everything they know. Quit taking your frustrations out on buisness'. I happen to know of a store that has had 22lr on the shelf almost this entire shortage. It isn't even that overpriced. I don't need it,so I am not going to buy it. How is this? You go find it. How fare is that? I wanted 9mm bad enough that I was going to sell my 9mm's and go all 40 if I could not find 9mm this week. I was more determined than others to find it. If you were determined you would have found a way to be there also. As for the resellers I am sure there were some in line but stop buying their crap and buy it before they do.
  13. I can understand 1k or 2k limit but 200?
  14. Only being able to produce 50rds a hour is not draw back enough to sacrifice knowing each round is perfect. I have no interest in a progressive set up.
  15. I was desperate enough for the 9mm that I thought I would give it a try standing in line to see of the 9mm came in. If I was desperate enough I would camp out there and quit my job. I went there today and people had been standing in line for hours waiting to see of it would be put out. Here is the deal, they sell it as soon as it comes in. If it comes in after closing on Sunday do you really expect them to wait until the following Saturday to put it out? This week ammo was available at 1145 AM on a Tuesday. What do you want them to do? I can't help it if you have established a job where you have to work a certain time and can't make hunting ammo a priority. I had the exact opposite talk on the Walmart thread about some friends I have in management that put out 3 random boxes when no one is looking. Someone complained about that method. What the hell do you want people to do?
  16. I stood in line outside, as soon as the manager came in he told the 15 of us that they did not receive a truck. He said the ammo will be put out as soon as it is available, anytime on Tuesday or Wednesday.
  17. I believe Sportmans Warehouse has handled the situation extremely well. I have walked in at 4pm on a Tuesday and purchased 22's lately. I stood in line yesterday and they said try back on Tuesday or Wednesday because the truck did not arrive. They said it would be put out as soon as it was unloaded and stamped.
  18. There is a very creditable member on here, I think his name is Zybsco or something similar, who has owned a 40 and a 9 Shield. He said the 40 has a slight bit more recoil than the 9. I got rid of my shield only to add another S&W J frame to the collection, I just love J frames. My dislikes of the Shield was the safety, the disasembly I didn't care too much for, and I just couldn't quite convince myself there was an advantage to a Shield over a Baby Glock. The Shield absorbs a lot more recoil than a baby Glock, I would say the 40 Shield had less felt recoil than a G22. If I had it all to do over again I would have kept the Shield.
  19. Shields are nice, even the .40's have little to no recoil.
  20. Yeah I know. Just because they sell them for that doesn't mean people want to buy them for that. I have been running scenarios through my head. Buy the derringer and buy a box of ammo. Find someone reloading .45acp to pull the bullets and reduce the charge. I will shoot a few for familiarity and save the others. Maybe one day I could pick up a 45acp or 45lc/410 barrel. I can't imagine the barrels are cheaper than $150 though.
  21. I have wondered the same thing. The 45 Win Mag is a rimless round. I would have to have the barrel recessed as well.
  22. I was thinking 2 familiarization rounds and then 2 to carry hoping to never use it. Apparently it has less ft lbs of energy than a 44mag but barely.
  23. I couldn't imagine shooting full power mag loads. 20,000 psi loads like 45acp recipe would be the max. I was disappointed to see that replacement barrels are almost nonexistent.
  24. I found a deal ($235) on an American Derringer but it is a 45 Winchestr Mag. What would you do. I can reload but I doubt I would ever find brass for it. Even if I were to find factory ammo it is as hot as 44mag. I have never seen barrels for sale for American Derringers either
  25. I assume you are talking about the $12 Glockcollector Sport Combat holster, it is a great holster.
