      Reloading Shotshell

      Magtech is what I got. Midway has 12 and 28 gauge in stock. Can't wait to find some black and get started!

      Reloading Shotshell

      Reloading brass shot shells is different from paper or plastic. If you're going to use black powder, there's lots of information. Not so much for smokeless. I'm just starting, so I don't have any personal knowledge to give you, but here are some links that I've found interesting...

      300 Blackout Vs 223

      Oh, and you can shoot supersonic suppressed. With my set-up, it seems to be hearing safe outdoors. Inside a room might be another story, but I haven't tried that yet.

      300 Blackout Vs 223

      To ad to the info already posted; The 300 BO is really versatile. If you want to get a suppressor, its the way to go. 5.56 is much noisier than 300, even suppressed. If you don't mind the second stamp, it's perfect for an SBR. My SBR (9" barrel) with suppressor attached is about the same length...

      SOLD

      I just put one of those triggers in my PF9, and it is better. Doing that, and realizing that I'm not going to shoot the gun all that much, I decided to keep mine. It's a great gun for it's intended purpose. Lots better, in most ways, than my S&W model 38. YMMV

      WTS/WTT Browning model 55 380 auto

      If it helps dating your .380, I have sn 514526 and, according to the letter I got from Browning, it shipped from Browning in November of 1954. Nice piece!

      Fal Build Party!!!

      I guess nobody wants to take the lead. I've built 4 since I first got into the thread. As I said, I have all the necessary tools. I'm thinking that whoever is willing to host, calls the shots on when their place is available. :)

      3-ish inch revolvers pics

      It does look a little racy, don't it? Ok, weird, but it grew on me. ;)

      3-ish inch revolvers pics

      Good luck on that! ;) I've heard other folks say the same. If I ever decide to sell it, I guess it'll have to be at a range. It's not as bad as most people think. Try one sometime. :)

      Somebody say something about a 3" 19? :)

      Fal Build Party!!!

      I'm in. I have everything but the vise, because I can't host right now. I'm available any weekend (if there's not a gun show in Hattiesburg) and most of the time during the week. Metairie or Mandeville is close enough to Picayune for me, if I don't have to be there by 8 AM. :)
