Lots of good choices for certain. I have no regrets in buying the Dillon Swaging tool. Works great!

Why would you think they would not. Lots of places in this world where they make small pistol primers and they are not made not to work. Right now up here we are getting SPP from Bosnia selling for...

I believe some of the IMR powders continue to be made in Canada, in the Province of Quebec. 700X comes to mind.
The increase in pricing for powders has gone through the roof up here, although...

Diemaco morphed into Colt Canada sometime ago. Colt Canada has a VG reputation for making quality AR15 style rifles I believe the Danes use our Colt Canada rifles. Turdo has placed all AR's under...

I don't get to the range as often as I should with #4 Longbranch. I installed a 4x scope on it. At 100 yards I have shot 3 rounds touching with it. With irons that came with it I am afraid just...

IVI makes all the small arms ammunition for the Canadian Armed Forces to this day. I am not aware of IVI producing brass for the civilian market. They make no ammunition for the civilian market. ...

I had a Rossie and loved it. I still have Rossie '92 in 44mag. I am not a fan of mid barrel open sights so I installed a rail and have mounted a re dot on the gun. Great little shooter. My friend...

No one mentioned the Marlin Papoose. I read about this model years ago and kinda always wanted one. A bit like a bad back itch it just never was going away. Ran into one on one of our gun forums...
An M&P Compact with a threaded barrel. I instaled a 4.25" barrel on it to be able to use it in IDPA CCP Division. It will be the last handgun I buy until we get rid of Turdo I mean Trudeau. He...

Up here in the North West portion of the Great White North we have, but a skiff of snow on the ground on the valley floor. It has been really cold and sunny for the past few days (-20C at night). ...

I loaded for a number of years my Great Grand-dads 41 Long Colt with both Hollow Base and Heel Base Bullets. I even used the lighter Lyman Heel Base mold for the 41 Short Colt. It always performed...
Catchooter thanks for the reminder. Given every mass shooting in the US has a profound effect on our Gov'ts desire to remove our guns from us it is not fair for you to suggest we up here should just...
Daekar I agree one should always, when possible, to help others. My point was that in a mass shooting environment pulling your gun while dressed in civilian clothing more likely got you shot by the...
So you think, likely being shot by a police officer while you wail away with your pocket pea shooter at a bad guy 100 yards or more away is a more ethical and responsible choice for your family,...
Welcome to Uganda.
Man some of your realities are amazing given the 49th is all that separates us. We get most of the news about these mass shootings up here that are used to justify Trudeaus...
For competitions such as IDPA the larger frame revolvers ir 686 or GP-100 have bigger cylinders and the wider arch of the crane allow for faster reloads. That is one reason why I have both. The...
Or reconsider his options. 10 x 9MM = or> than 6x 38spl in any configuration I can think of in a similar sized package. At the very least you can miss more often...:>)
