  1. I have owned and used 22 mags for many decades. I would pick one over a 22 LR any day. Currently own one of the new lefty CZ 22 mags. Have not shot it yet but she sure does look good.
  2. Just picked up a D10. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. But a $680 pistol looks and feels like it has a $1500 price tag.
  3. Lived in and hunter Alaska for 35 plus years. I was convinced the best thing to carry was a big bore revolver. 454 Casual, 500 S&W, 500 JRH, etc. Pretty much owned and used then all. Some of my friends started carrying semi auto 10mm's and it slowly sunk in they are a better choice. A few buddys started out with Glocks but most have switched the the Springfield XDM's and carry a mag full of 200 grain hard cast bullets or 200 grain Hornadys. Much easier to get off multiple shots with a semi auto 10 than any big bore revolver. Even though I still own plenty of big bore revolvers I now own a Springfield.
  4. I bought the Springfield based on results from a couple of guys I personally know and it was highly recommended. One of my friends loads it with stiff 200 grain hard cast loads and carries it for bear protection in Alaska. He mentioned he did change out the spring as well. Doubt I'll run into a bear on my walks but 2 legged creatures scare me even more as well as stray dogs. I'll stick with 180 grain Hornady XTP's
  5. Picked this up from my dealer last month. Springfield XDM Elite in 10mm. Mag holds 16 (2 mags included), decent trigger, red dot ready, 4.5 inch barrel. Plenty of pistol for the delivered price of $566. Ambidextrous mag release and slide release. Sights are easy to pick up.
  6. The Ultimate came from Shooting Surplus https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwiKj9TRgNT7AhUZhIkEHV3fCrIQFnoECAkQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fshootingsurplus.com%2F&usg=AOvVaw2lWo8SoWCp8zRYHIPchrZi I paid $1090 plus shipping. When trying to locate these, search for both Tisas and SDS Imports.
  7. They just keep on getting less expensive: SDS Imports US Army 5" Barrel .45 ACP 7+1 Rounds - 1911A1 : RK Guns
  8. I just picked up one of their SSR models (stainless, Novack sights, ambi safety, light rail, etc) and a Ultimate Match model with hand lapped barrel, adjustable sights, ambi safety, mag well, etc.. Both are a heck of a lot of gun for the price. Here are some photos of the Ultimate model.
  9. Buds price is $376 plus sales tax with a credit card Kygunco charged $319 with no sales tax using a credit card How is Buds less than Kygunco?
  10. You will never outgrow a single stage press. I been using them since 1965 and they do a great job. Now, If I were shooting a couple hundred rounds a week I would consider adding a progressive.
  11. My favorite? The next one! Have a bunch but a couple of unique ones are a new 1886 in 45-90 and waiting on a Big Horm Armory in 500 S&W.
  12. Kentucky Gun Company must have got a huge batch of the .45's. They are selling them for $319. SDS IMPORTS 1911-A1 45 ACP 5in Black 7rd » KYGUNCO
  13. I priced some of the new models last year, $3500 or more. Am sure they are nice. They sure look bad azz! I went with the Desert Eagle in 44 mag.
  14. Seems very expensive to do. Add in state sales tax as well as gunbroker fees. Then pay income tax, possibly state income tax, and social security tax on the profits. Not saying it doesn’t happen but that is a lot of cash to lose to show a paper trail that can be easily investigated.
