Re: Powder for 5.56 that meters well

For those of you that have found that great metering powder, what powder dispenser system are you using? I'm reloading with a Lee AutoDisk setup, so any suggestions for that would be great. I've reloaded a total of about 25 rounds of .223 using Varget, and it seemed decent although this is only the ...

Re: Got to give a shot out to Smith & Wesson

The 9C mags don't usually come with the finger grip extension. Every time we have called them, they have shipped the extension plates free. Always a pleasure to deal with S&W. I wish they would have extended me the same courtesy when I emailed to ask them about a flat base plate for my magazine...

Re: Shooting around Frisco?

If you find some place like this, please share with others. :) I've been around the Frisco area now for about 11 years and have yet to find a place like that.

Traded

I have a Lee 3 die set for .38/.357 that I would like to trade. I aquired these when I traded for a reloading setup, but I have no need to reload .38 (traded my .38 for the reloading setup :) ). They look brand new, but I have to assume that they are used. The round red case that they come in had be...

Mind sharing the name of this store? I'm always on the lookout for a place to get supplies.

Re: Reloading Scales

This is the one that I use and I'm quite happy with it's accuracy. I'm not loading for benchrest or extreme distance accuracy, but I am trying to make sure I don't blow up my gun or myself with what I do load. :)

Re: The problem with gun shows...

- Charging the credit card fee violates the agreements most of them signed with the credit card processor. If reported, they could actually lose their ability to accept credit cards. Sure, they lose a little bit of the margin on each sale, but they end up making a ton of transactions that they othe...

Re: Build my first black gun - Looking for parts in Austin

Can you give any hints as to what exactly was done to the spring? Or better yet, can you provide a link that shows exactly what to do? http://www.sargenthome.com/15_Minute_AR_Trigger_Job.htm NOTE: I did NOT do the hammer modification....only the trigger spring. But if you google "bend trigger ...

Re: Cargo Pant Pocket Holster Recommendations

My suggestion would be to do what I did. I pocket carry my S&W M&P9c daily. You can't find (or at least I couldn't) a pocket holster for that gun. So, I went to knifekits.com, ordered some kydex and grommets and made my own holster. I designed it after the kydex holster that I had for my S&a...
