  5. Terrible photo quality due to having to reduce the size of the image to get it to post here on the forum, but the dropbox as seen has been good to keep my two Malinois separated from the delivery people.

  6. I like 38 Special and 357 Magnum. It's already been said. Pay attention to reliable data if you are handloading. I have three 357 Magnum revolvers that are mainly shot as 38 Specials. Defense loads are 357 rounds. To me, having a 357 revolver is the most versatile caliber in centerfire revolvers for ordinary use. I handload all my handgun cartridges. Reloading gives many more options over store bought cartridges. For one, I can continue to shoot in this famine. My 357's are a Model 28 Smith and Model 586. The Model 19 is a part time 357 Magnum. All my Ruger's are big single actions.

  12. Got an Email from Apps Training that they are opening a new gun shop at 2611 Lebanon Pk. This would put it across from Green Police Supply/Shpeley Donuts. Looks like it may also be a range. Guess with Buford gone and Const. Carry they are branching out,did not get any other info on it. This is Donalson but GPS is Nashville. Will check it out next week.

  13. We have had a 3 person Early Rifle Elk Hunt donated to us by an outfitter near Missoula, MT that one of our committee members has worked for in the past. It is a backcountry hunt valued at $13,200, however, we will be selling chances on it for $50/chance and we are going to try and reward it at the banquet. Need not be present to win.

  21. All true. The GP100 was a solution in search of a problem. Ruger "bulked" up the GP100, which of course made it heavier. To compensate they did away with the grip frame, substituting the "peg" of the GP series. This made the gun front heavy, not nearly as well-balanced as the older Six series, all in the name of "strengthening" what was probably already the strongest medium frame revolver on the planet ...

  25. All this discussion about balances, and their accuracy takes me back to some of my chemistry classes in college. We sometimes used analytical balances, that read to 1/10000 of a gram. They were mounted on columns that were isolated from the rest of the building structure and were extremely sensitive. The lab instructors often recommended holding your breath while taking measurements, as even though the weighing pans were located behind glass doors, breathing on the machines would sometimes affect the readouts ...

  28. The GP-100 is a fine gun, but it always felt clunky to me. Its just awkward and heavy in my hand. The Six series guns are just so much more balanced and handle like a dream.

  29. I have a beam scale. I bought a $20 Frankford Arsenal pocket scale from Midway just to see it in person. For years now, it's pretty much all I use. It's quick, easy, and accurate. I've become too lazy to drag out the beam scale. Dang! They've went up! That RCBS should be a good one.

  35. I'm new here, and I know this is a necropost, but my experiences here are no less valid. Speaking as someone whom owns a 3D printer (a few years now), has printed miles of various filament, has milled and used Polymer lowers, as well as has been a machinist milling everything from wood to polys/plastics to metals from Aluminum to Titanium and Inconel, I have this to say..... 1) I will never use an 80% poly lower again for an AR. I have milled them drill press/cross slide vise style as well as with a router jig. I've had them come apart in as few as 15 shots (5.56N in a 16" carbine with adjustable gas block tuned to the ammo). Lucky I didn't take part of my cheek off with the bolt when the last one failed and the buffer loop came clean off. The only use I have for them anymore is dedicated .22lr plinker builds. I'm not even sure I would trust the resin mold kit that comes with metal reinforcing bits. Not all poly's are bad, the 80% Glock replicas seem to be OK. 2) For the same reason as above (times 100) I would not even consider using a 3D printed lower for anything other than a cosplay rig for some wannabe, or an Airsoft build or paint ball build might be OK. There are 6 or 7 different methods of 3D printing, however most DIY/homeowner 3D printers are Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) AKA Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). This method is what most people think of, with a spool (or a few spools) of filament material being fed into a heated nozzle and being deposited layer upon layer to build up the model/part. This is great for prototyping and doing one off stuff (see pic). Horrible for production unless you run a 'farm' (a warehouse full). This method has its drawbacks though. Even if you get good layer fusion, that part is still weak between the layers. When designing something for 3D printing, you need to keep this in mind and design/orient the part around this. I have yet to figure out how to FDM print a lower where this is not an issue. I have however printed some grips with out issue. Tried a 1911 style/angle grip on an AR. 3) 6061 billet and 7075 forged 80% lowers are so widely available and cheap there is almost no reason not to use them if you are considering a 'ghost gun'. Currently a forged raw (non anodized) lower can be had for $44 shipped, less in 5 packs (AAO Mfg). Yes the tooling/jig can get expensive. If you know someone who has one, it never hurts to ask. Likely they will rent it out for a reasonable price (with a u break it, u replace it clause), probably with direct guidance so you don't screw it up. Then you are not on the hook for all the tooling/fixtures, and they reduce their over all investment cost. With what I know now, I would way rather by a CNC machine and program a full lower milling from a 0% forging or block of billet than stick another poly on a battle rifle. 4) Legally speaking it is perfectly legal for you to manufacture a firearm from 0% or 80% using any material you want. Sale (and serialization) of that firearm is of course subject to Fed and State laws. 5) FDM printing is great for lots of stuff, like a spent primer catch for an old RCBS JR press, or any other little project you can come up with. I've made biscuit and cookie cutters, storage boxes for hearing aids and batteries, reload sorting blocks etc....as long as you design the part appropriately, it's great. Here is a project I did for myself using my printer. Yep, it flies.
