I use shock buffs in my 5” guns and have never had one break up. I do keep my eye on them and change them out when some minor wear shows but long before they would break, normally well in excess of 1,000 rounds. I also use a shock buff in my 4” EDC X9 as the were designed to run with a buff...

Congrats! I’ve been reloading since the 70’s, old school single stage reloader. It is very rewarding to tailor the load to your purpose and at times the individual gun. Making better ammo than you can buy at far less of a cost is certainly a winning situation. Since I’ve retired, reloading is...

Just e-mailed Bryan today about getting my third set in just the last three months.

A 1911 in .45 is the king of guns. I always carry one but do own a couple in 9mm. Much prefer to and enjoy shooting a .45 more than the 9’s. With that said, over the course of this summer I have shot about 3,000 rounds of each caliber. Probably that many 9’s due to not wanting to deplete my...

I bought my first set about 2 months ago. As soon as they arrived and I saw how very well made they were, I ordered a second set. Great grips made by very good people.

124 gr for range use, for carry 147’s.

I’ve been able to get primers now and then locally. Just paid 48 for a thousand this week and that is the most I have paid, so far.

Was at Sportsman’s Wharehouse today and they had some Federal .380 American Eagle for 25 for 50. Could have/should have bought some for myself but with a two box limit, bought some 9mm for my daughter.

The grips arrived today and they are fantastic. Very grateful for the generous offer from CECannonJr. Very much appreciate the offer and now the wonderful grips!!

Didn’t get to the outdoor range this week but have been pretty regularly. No crowds in the winter but normally one other person either there when I arrive or before I leave. No one stays very long. I normally shoot about 300 rounds a trip in the summer but have been shooting just 100 in the...

I’m over on the south west side. Don’t think I’ve ever gone this far into the winter without running my snowblower but know it is certainly coming soon. I was at my main outdoor range last week, rather cool but pleasant. All three of the outdoor ranges that I belong to are open, one has a no...

My typical shooting year is outdoors for the spring, summer and fall. I typically concentrate on shooting drills from the holster with three IDPA target stands. During the winter myself and another gentleman open up our private clubs indoor range one day a week for open shooting. During the...

If they are not high primers, a heavier mainspring could be needed.

I certainly understand your concerns. Most outdoor ranges that I frequent have little to no supervision. This is both good and bad. I shoot during the week when traffic is very light at the range. When someone that I do not know comes, I will take a break and watch them for a bit to see how safe...

Looks great, someone will be very happy.

I’ve been shooting .45’s all summer but took out my 9mm CQB Commander to the range as it has been feeling neglected. Felt like shooting a .22. Ran through 300 rounds shooting drills from the holster and absolutely no discomfort after I was done. My Commander is a couple years old and now has...

^^^ Living that close would be dangerous to my wallet. :)

Don’t actually drink that much anymore and am more inclined to have a single malt Scotch but my beer of choice is either Dogfish Head 90 Minute or Bell’s Two Hearted and they are coming out with a double Two Hearted which should be very good.

Thinking you’ll get some answers if you post a new thread instead of attaching it to this one. :)

Totally agree, I have Criterions and 55BN’s with shark trim for all my guns and a Sparks shark belt. Also S-4C’s and D-4C’s for everything and a couple left over VMII’s. All my carry leather is Spark’s. Took me 40 years of carrying to find it but once I did, I’ll never try anything else as...
