Sig P238 7 Round Mag Problem
I bought from Sig their 7 round mag for a new P238. The problem is the mag popped out when the pistol fired and continued doing this. Being a slow learner I figured it was a bad mag and got another one from Sig. Same result. The 6 round mag that comes with the gun never fails. Im wondering if anyone...

Re: December Waiting
For Dec waiting folks. Several people have posted in the Nov waiting room that they are just receiving their license. My wife got hers yesterday and the others seem to be from the period around the first week in Nov. It took 87 days for my wife to get hers and about the same for some other people I ...

Re: November waiting
Wife received hers yesterday. Sent docs on Nov. 3. BUT THE PICTURE ON THE LICENSE WAS NOT HER! It was not even the picture of a woman so it looks like some guy may have my wife's pic on his license. She called and they are going to reissue a corrected license. I see from some other posts here they h...

Re: November waiting
My wife sent in all the required docs on Nov 3 and is still waiting. I got mine last May after only a 40 day wait time. I think the current wait may relate to the earlier fed govt shutdown which may have backlogged background checks. Then there was the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays and a lot o...

Re: "Waiting Room"
Wife completed fingerprints and mailed all docs Nov 3. Still in "waiting for materials" status. I read another post from someone who said he talked to them on the phone and they said they are swamped. Just guessing but it could be the govt shutdown backed up background checks. Another pers...

Re: How much energy is lost from unburnt powder
Sorry I cant help. Thinking about how much powder is not burned is just one of those subjects that never enters into my thinking. But hey, maybe its just me.

Sometimes using this method is all one needs to do just once to check their gun. It lasts for an eternity.

Re: cold weather shooting
The only way Im going to be shooting in freezing weather is if we get invaded by aliens so theres minimal need to blow bucks on specialized cold weather shooting gear. I figure 31 degrees is why they make indoor ranges.

Re: Who carries their gun with a full mag +1?
I load just the standard 7 in my 1911 with one chambered. I figure since a war hasnt broken out in my area since around 1862 that should be enough. If I hear the yankees are coming back I will load the full 8

Re: deputies seize Zimmerman's "stockpile"
Like everyone here, compared to Zim I must have an armory at my house. The # rounds he had = about a morning at the range for me. As for his wife and GF. I smell a couple of women looking to bait him into making a wrong move so they can sell a story to one of the scandal sheet "news" media...

Re: September Apps
Just some nfo for new applicants... It is going to take the state on average between 35 and 45 days to process your application. It may take them a few days less, but not many. You can pound the keyboard accessing the DPS site all you want but it wont speed anything up. Knowing this I just put the a...
