  1. The 357 rounds did seem to be a little and I mean little bit more expanded but it could have just been the brand of ammo used. Did not seperate but I only fired three of them though. I need to fire some of the other rounds to see where exactly they are going. I wouldn't be suprised if they were off by a couple of feet. It just even felt weird but the FMJ rounds were as accurate as one could expect.
  2. You intrested in any trades. J/K
  3. ^I noticed it to the other day but I'm a little well built up on 357 sig ammo. I bought 200rds FMJ for $50 at a gun show.
  4. ^I will not buy a LCP until they offer the 10rd mags.
  5. The 9mm Buffalo Bore ammo was shot out of the Glock 19 and the 357 Sig ammo was shot out of a Glock 32. I wanted to make it as comparable as possible. With still some ammo shortages I couldn't find the same brand across the board. I will tell you the 9mm+P+ had no where near as much hand felt recoil as the 357 Sig rounds.
  6. So I bought a box of 9mm+P+ for my 357sig vs all other calibers test only to not be able to hit the phone book with the buffalo bore brand ammo 3rds were fired. I was abble to successfully hit everything with FMJ out of the same gun a Glock 19 and it was hard to tell if they were going high low or just to the side. I am wondering if anyone had any idea what may have happened? Distance was only about 7yrds. Now for the results of my none scientific results. Ammo used 357 Sig HP Gold dots, 125 Grain Hollow Points .40 SW remington Golden Saber, 180 Grain Golden Saber Jacketed Hollow, .45 ACP, Remington Golden Saber, 185 Grain Golden Saber Jacketed Hollow Point Bullet Weapons used Glock 19 Gock 23 Glock 32 SW 1911 5" barrel My results suprised me in finding the entry holes more similar between the 40 and the 45. This may be due to the brand ammunition being the same. The 357 holes were still big but deeper. Again I would like to conduct useing all the same brand ammunition. The FMJ 9mm 115grain rounds went all the way through the book where all the Hollow points were stopped. This is not really a surprise but the 357 Gold Dots were the closest to penetrating completely. They made it to about the last couple of pages. I plan to gather all the same brand ammo and try to conduct this again in more controled setting. I will need more phone books to.
  7. Someone mentioned going to Suntrust, my wife had asked about carrying concealed(deap) while working there and what the policy was and they had kind of the walmart-starbucks opinion for employees and customers. They would rather act like it has never been brought up.
  8. Interesting that no one has ever thought or brought up that a smaller much faster bullet could richoche more/less? I love my 357 SIG BTW!

    Ruger LCR 38 Special

    My wife has the 38 LCR and it doesn't hurt her hand until after about 15rds, the first 10 rds don't feel like much. Talking about ammo it is advised to stay clear of the lead bullets for these but they can be shot.
  10. It's normally people that look like idiots that OC anyway. I don't think other than law enforcement or maybe store owners I've ever seen someone OC that looked like they were intelligent.

    XD trade

    Thats exactly what I see to.
  12. My wife looked at every gun made and shoot many of them and is so extatic about her LCR she has to tell everyone about it. X100 if she doesn't like it she will not carry it.
  13. My grandfather always told a story about being a teenager and hateing snakes. He found a garter snake and went to retreive a gun or shovel to kill the snake only to return to find it eating a copper head. I don't like coming across any snake but I understand needing them.
  14. Hard to find those.
  15. I just read the first post, the original story and it kind of reminded me of Basic Training and going to the range. Everything you did was dangerous and wrong.
  16. Grandpas S&W K frame model 10. It was his duty weapon.
  17. Great advise. It's personal preference.
  18. I was at Sportsmans warehouse in Chattanooga today and the guy working the gun counter told me about all the ammo coming in and he sayd there are getting 20boxes of .380 5oo round bulk pack. Price unknown. They have a lot of every caliber there. I would say they have 1 million rounds of 9mm it's insane.

    My new Glock 32

    The Wally by East Gate had quite a bit of 357 sig when I was there Saturday. I had heard a expert say one time that 124gr +P+ would be equivalent to 357 Sig.

    My new Glock 32

    I couldn't resist and put another 50 roundsthrough it today all of which were in 19 magazines which I have full confidence in know. It's a great thing because I have so many. I am willing to bet it is because of the necked down cartridge feeding better.
  22. Dude third from left, looks like a 500 SW to me.

    Damn, you guys caught me I can't lie about anything. Kevo, I actually live in Chattanooga if you want to get together and shoot it.
