I recently picked up a 5.5" Bisley Blackhawk Convertible chambered in 45 Colt and 45 ACP. I have probably owned a dozen Rugers in 45 Colt and every one of them had undersized throats. This one...

The Caldwell shooting gloves are awesome. Padded palms for comfort with stretchy fabric in the right areas and thin fingertip areas for trigger control or access to your cell phone.
Picked up this 1993 prelock 625 Classic .45 Colt 5" stocking dealer special...

My staff bought me a membership to the local indoor range. Already have one so will be covered until April 2022.
I bought a used GP100 last year that had a damaged firing pin that the seller did not disclose. Sent it back to Ruger and they said it could not be repaired (older style) so sent me a new identical...

Bought a new 750 a few months ago and added the KMF UFO light. My other presses have lights from Inline Fab.
Bought one two years ago and a second one with the lock last year. Carry it all the time and GF has the same gun so mags/ammo are interchangeable. Great gun for what it is.

You are a good man, thanks for sharing!

Hopefully it all works out for you. I used to use a similar setup when I started building guitars before I bought a planer. The wheels seem like a good idea.

Your gun, your rules. I chopped one of my 357 Rossi's to build a 11.5" SBR.

I had the same thing happen in November for a gun part I bought on another forum. It never showed up so I had to go through all the hoops to get a refund which took nearly 2 months. In the interim...

My last Toyota was a 93 Tercel that had nearly 300k on the clock before it threw a crank rod. Haven't owned one since but my mom has had several. Hopefully they will stand behind you on the Prius.

I heard gas prices are projected to go up 15% this summer. For me that is another .45 cents per gallon.

That was a good watch. Rule number one, just shut up!

Wow that sucks to hear. I used a gunsmith one time that took many months longer to complete a job than what he quoted. Fortunately he was only a few hours away in the same state but eventually came...

Hmm this is good to know. I just bought tires for my wife's car but have big expensive tires on my truck and expect to replace them in another year or two.

Agreed, no such thing as too much. That said I have started taking excess brass and selling it after I clean it up. I pick up so much when I go to the range that it basically pays for the gas there...

Bummer. At least you didn't come out to a fire. I nearly burned my house down once from an unattended grill. Now I don't stray too far from anything that puts out heat and tend to stay close to...

I'm with you. When I was in college I worked in a music store in the mall that sold tapes and CDs. Vinyl was long gone by then but it was a good job for a couple years that I took to get discounts...

If I use a spreadsheet to keep track of all my guns does that make me super?

Prayers sent Charles! I can't imagine being in your position but am sure I will be as well one of these days.

Lol that's funny now but probably wasn't at the time. Last year I was driving my old 72 Chevy truck to work and some moron decided to cut me off. I laid on the horn and the contacts locked up so...

I put XS ghost ring sights on my Rossi. The rear sight required drilling & tapping but the front sight was slightly loose in the dovetail. This was fixed by peening the bottom of the front sight. ...

I would buy a Henry tomorrow if it came with a loading gate. I'm looking for another SBR host but the loading tube is an absolute PITA with a suppressor.
