Hopefully things are finely settling down. I order some 124 grain 9mm from RMR Wednesday and got them today. Down to about my last 1,000 small pistol primers hopefully I can find some local that are not $100 per 1,000.

PSA has had some uppers and build kits at decent prices. Also AR15 discount has some barrels and other parts on sale if you want to go that route. Stag has some 308 stuff in stock but haven’t checked prices.

What I understand they are good guns I have been meaning to get one for a while. Decided I needed a new carry gun instead so I got a shield plus

Shot my new shield plus put about 200 rounds thru it ran awesome and shot the same. Only put 6 HPs thru it but they ran fine also.

I picked up my shield plus today now just to go fire it see how it does. The shop also told me there currently on the back order list for 9mm ammo said could be 8 months

Mine should be in early next week. I need to grab a couple more mags for soon

We’re did you find gold dots at need some fresh HPs

Anyone have a shield plus or fired one yet? I think i am going to pick one up. I held one Friday and liked it. Want something smaller than my daily carry G19. Was planning on picking up a 1911 then then the shield plus came out.

I grabbed some Varget should have grabbed some accurate #5 also last time I was there I got 200 primers.

I found some powder today at tn gun country they actually had several different kinds

I was there for a while this morning I was a little surprised by the number of guns on the tables was not expecting that many. I also handle a shield plus performance center. Was hoping to find a standard shield plus no one had them.

Took a remington 1100 up to guns and leather years ago to try to get a gas tube for it. He told me it wasn’t worth fixing and offered to by it for a crazy price. I said no.

I live in just up the road from the fairgrounds in Dickson but really don’t want to get out in the weather. May try in the morning.

When did they start carrying reloading supplies? I hope the continue to do so I go there some what regularly. I did get a couple hundred primers a couple months back at TN gun country. Only allowed 200 per day.

Has anyone seen any 1911s recently I was told by a LGS that Rock Island is currently not producing any due to constraint on products in higher demand. Said it would be probably April before any came in. He also said Kimber was doing the same and was about a year behind as well. Springfield is also focused on higher demand items.

I think I read a while back that most wal marts we’re going to stop carrying all ammo.

Anyone have a Rock Island 1911 tactical in 45 ACP? Thinking about picking one up just looking for some feedback. How well do they run and will they feed HP ammo for carry? Little ashamed no don’t have an1911 in my arsenal yet.

If anyone is out and about please be more vigilant that normal.

They are saying the building the bomb was in front of was a communication building for att

I just saw they are getting ready to re enter the area with cadaver dog. Hope this is not a sign of things to come.

Last Saturday the Reloader bench a little powder bought some lil gun to load 300 blackout with. They had some various pistol powder and no primers. Selection was pretty thin.

Finally got back to the reloading bench and loaded some dummy rounds at 2.090. Still to long seems to be hitting the rifling. Very hard to cycle the bolt and scratches on the bullet. Also the moves forward so something is not right. I have never loaded 300 blackout or used H110 not sure how it acts when shorter than recommended COL. going to 2.78 seemed to be better. So Bear Creek barrels have short chambers? You guys think I would be safe going this short? At this length it’s still only about halfway in the cannelure. I think I should be ok going to this length as long as i stay at minimum charge weight.

I want to learn trigger works and action tuning to start with and gradually getting to barrel fitting and learn 1911 work

Anyone have suggestions on some good books to learn gunsmith ? I have done an AR build and a few other minor things. I really enjoyed putting my AR together would just like to learn more.

I have visited Wyoming a couple times awesome place just do not think I could handle the winters.
