I have 13 rounds of 45 ACP Black Talon left from when they stopped selling the original run. I switched to hydra shock.
-
wow. that had to be difficult. but what a SKILL to learn!
-
thank you! see, we are smarter than we think!

if my insurance company didn't have doctors, nurses, and lawyers on staff trying to figure out how not to cover what I pay them to cover my doctor would have more staff to care for me and spend less time arguing on how to treat my illness.

Slipped my mind but that is a concern. I can find 230 gr 45 acp right now but factory loaded 357 ammo is hard to find. If I couldn't find heavy, full power 357 I might go with 45.

I believe the .357 mag is the most versatile handgun caliber there is. It's also the best fight stopper. Still love my .45s for carry and I shoot them better than revolvers. I want the redhawk 8 shot .357 but I'm like you, can't bring myself to shell out the bucks for one right now. oh yeah, my 357is the 4 inch ported fully polished. It hurt my wallet.

If that is 150gr 30-30 it has tripled in value. I had my wife pick up 3 boxes early last year at $15.99 a box. Last time I was forced to go to WW they had .22 WRM, 12 and 20 ga shotshells and nothing more.

I'm a HUGE fan of .45 acp for personal protection from two legged predators. For backwoods hiking where large fou legged predators roam, I would carry the .357. of course I have an 8 round .357 but even with six gun I'd take the .357 with 158 grain full power loads.

add in I have seen people asking $1 each and more for LRP and LPP. it will get better but we will never get back to pre 2019 prices.

I've been there. distance is not the issue. I've spent my limit for the year and don't want to trade my only wheelgun. -
that's a sweet looking rifle. squirrels beware!

Procter & Gamble would be one. I don't care for most actor's personal political views but I still watch TV and movies. NFL and NBA are out of the question though. Bet most watch SEC sports that support the liberal teaching Colleges. Ford and Chevy are built outside the US gor the most part. Harley Davidson uses more foreign parts than Honda's Goldwing. It's all a crapshoot and as one member put ot on another post if we boycott everyone who doesn't follow our political/religious beliefs we will end up naked living in a cave. that being said, still pissed at Hornady, will NOT watch Ellen and think Rosie O'Donnell should be publicly flogged. NIKE is banned for life for supporting Kopernick. we all draw the line somewhere. so what does that have to do with bobsguns new Henry? Congrats bobs, I'm bummed with no pics too.

I had just started shortly before all this mess hit so I don't have a stock if powder or primers so I am stuck. I have powder and bullets but primers as we know are scarce and very expensive. Since primers are the most time consuming component to make, the ammo manufacturers are going to get the bulk of what are produced. I only have dies for .45 acp and 30-30 so I haven't been loading. I have enough to load up about 1000 rounds of 45 but I only have a few LRP. 30-30 loaded ammo is near $2 per round so my Marlin has not been fired in two years. Very sad but I will sit on the 80 rounds I have and shoot my .300 BO for now. my recently purchased .357 mag is in the same boat but .38/.357 is starting to become available again!

Easy to see why most single shots sit in the cabinet with so many better options available. I would never have bought one had it not been for my grandfather giving me his. not practical for the hunting I used to do. I had a store branded bolt action built identical to my hunting partner's Mossberg goose gun save for the 4 inch shorter barrel and adjustable choke. Used to hunt Canada Geese when I lived up north so that was what was useful. The fit and finish on my gun was well below what my friend's Mossberg displayed but it was a field gun, used for hunting, and all I could afford at the time. It would be pretty useless to me now. On the 410, I wanted one to build a custom snake charmer/tactical style just because. I ran across and old Iver Johnson 410 that resembled my 12ga, I can't cut it up but I had to buy it for it's simple elegance. I don't need it, it serves no purpose, so is it useless? Not ot me, it is just a working piece of mechanical art. It is useful in my eyes if I never pull the trigger. some of us are collectors, some shooters, some see firearms as merely tools. so many sub sets in just those categories. BUT in my eyes there isn't a useless firearm, only some less useful to me. yep, I talk too much

no. see above answers If you want a custom 44 mag contact Hamilton Bowen. If it can be done, he will know. Just be aware that it would cost more to modify the 44 special than to buy a comparable 44 mag.

you have my prayers,

I shoot less often than I would like due to ammo cost. and I prefer steel and wood myself. I was looking for a wood and stainless mini 30 when I bought my AR. Black powder has never interested me until lately, I'd love to get one of the Uberti revolvers to play with. I don't have a large collection and only three plastic pistols. two are specifically for carry when I need something light. Since we are discussing our most useless firearm I can't include AR in the mix. It's quite versatile and tons of fun to shoot, I don't really have useless since the one I never shoot is a keepsake and I bought a box of shorty shells to knock the dust off of her. Even the ones I've sold because they were of little use I'd like to have back. Oh well, enough rambling about everything for now.

Thanks David. I'm glad I joined.
