  1. Had a p22 since they came out, it was a suppressor host only.   Shot it a few times without the can, not really accruate either way.  Sold it last year and bought a MP22 because of other MPs in the house.  Couldn't be happier, I can run it in almost all of my current holsters and makes a great suppressor host.   My walther thread adapter went right on the MP.  I have also read that the MP 22 was made by Walthers Airsoft division :)

  2. I got some of the PCA plastic brass the other day. First time that I've seen the stuff. I tried the link above but it clears the screen before you can read it.
    I wonder if you can reload it? The plastic, unlike brass, doesn't expand and stay there. I can seat a bullet in the fired cartridge and it seems pretty tight. I know that I can put a new primer in it and powder. What do you think about putting a little pvc glue on the bullet?

    The only thing I would reload into these, would be a delrin plug and use them for dummies.

  3. I thought that it would be a good choice, if i were only going to have one revolver. Alot of my friends back in Wyoming had them in 454 and would get the 45lc wheel also. I seriously started checking prices....nothing but disappointment. They have gone up in price in the last 9 years, i remember a field grade coming into the shop for around $900. Looking for 357 smith now. :(
  4. For Occasional square range use the mag pouches are ok for the price. If you want open top mag pouches look at HSGI taco pouches. If you want flaps for retention look at LBT, Tactical tailor, eagle, SOE. You can also find USGI stuff on auction sites cheap.

    If you are going to spend the money, i would recommend avoiding condor for "go to gear"
  5. The first case would have been a good test case for the Tennessee Firearms Freedom act on the suppressors. Of course selling a firearm to a convicted felon hosed him beyond repair.



    I was thinking same thing. That's probably why he only got 18 months instead of 10 years? ATF "you agree not test suppressor charges and things will be easier on you"?
    Besides I don't think they were marked "made in Tennessee"
  6. KNOXVILLE — A federal judge Thursday sentenced a Rockford man to serve 18 months in prison for possession of unregistered weapons and selling a firearm to a convicted felon.

     

    From Blount today
     
     

    Waldrip pleaded guilty in September of last year to knowingly possessing two silencers without serial numbers and not registered to him in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. He also pleaded guilty to knowingly selling a firearm to a convicted felon.

    According to the plea agreement, Waldrip began making and selling firearms silencers beginning in January last year. The following month, he sold a silencer to an undercover agent of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Also, Waldrip sold a firearm to an individual working on behalf of law enforcement who asked if he could leave the gun at Waldrip’s house stating, “being a convicted felon, I’m not trying to have them pop up, you know, home inspection . . . .”

    Waldrip agreed to this request even after being informed by the individual that he was a convicted felon. The firearm was retrieved by the individual from Waldrip’s house in March of last year.

    Meanwhile, Charles M. Jones III, former owner and president of Tennessee Guns International, Inc. (TGI), was also sentenced in U.S. District Court to serve one year of probation and 100 hours of community service as a result of his felony conviction for importation of goods (firearms) by false statements.

    Jones pleaded guilty to the offense pursuant to a plea agreement last December. The plea agreement also resulted in TGI forfeiting and relinquishing several thousand firearms and firearms parts that were seized from TGI. Significantly, Jones can no longer possess a firearm, since he is now a convicted felon.

    “It is extremely important that firearms dealers abide by the law in conducting their business, in order to prevent those who are not authorized under law to possess firearms, from obtaining guns and weapons,” said U.S. Attorney William C. Killian in a press release.

    “This conviction and sentence is a reminder that smuggling firearms by a Federal Firearms Licensee into the U.S. is a serious matter and will be vigorously investigated and prosecuted,” said ATF Special Agent in Charge Jeffrey Fulton.

     

  7. Has anyone using the chargemaster combo experienced problems with key pad not working or zeroing problems.  Mine has been very loyal for last 6 years.   I used it last monday night, then Tues morning problems.  This has not had any mods done, I am looking for info on doing a factory "reset".  I checked youtube and other forums without any luck. 

    RCBS gave me option to return item with check for $200 and they will send me new unit.  I feel that this is fair...just doesn't work into the budget this month.

     

    Any help appreciated,

  8. I don't use dummies during dry firing. A little hot glue or silicon in the primer pocket if you are concerned about firing pins or strikers. I think any quality semiauto pistol or rifle is fine to dry fire without snapcaps, with the exception of rimfires. I am sure some will quote something from web that disagrees. Each to their own.....Dry fire, dry fire, dry fire!

    My rifle dummies look like the ones in the link above.

    If you wanted you could powder coat some for positive ID
  9. For my pistol dummies I use a lead semi wad cutter instead of RN or ball.  My rifle dummies are drilled and marked with black sharpie.  I only use rifle dummies on the range.  We load each others mags before drills, I had 1 live and 28 dummies followed by 1 live one...during one drill.  Wasn't as funny as it seems.
