      ATF redefining who's a dealer

      This. For the scare, it gets eyeballs and earballs. Which is how youtube channels make money. Fear sells. So far I haven't heard the reality of the ATF actually going after joe blow selling a gun. Or even joe blow selling a few guns from their personal collection. The ATF has had a hard time...

      [LEOSA] Weak hand - two handed shooting. Why?

      This. I've never been in a gun fight. I've never even been near a gun fight. I for sure as shit have hurt my index finger badly enough I don't think I could have pulled a trigger, but the rest of my hand was fine. Jam that sucker hard and no go for a week. Never hurts to practice weak hand...

      Overpressurized rounds safer in a revolver?

      This. You won't reliably detect a double charge because of the possible variation in brass and projectile weight. Very good components might have a grain or so tolerance across them. Average stuff is probably going to be 2-3gr across them. Really crappy stuff might be more, and don't even get...

      9mm case explosion with Gen 3 G34

      Lol, ditto. That and Euro 7.65 browning/.32acp. My Cz50 doesn't't like feeding American .32acp The shorter case web causes rim issues in the magazines and the rounds nose dive and fail to feed with fully loaded magazines. Euro stuff feeds great (Geco, Prvi, S&B, a couple of others). If I load...

      9mm case explosion with Gen 3 G34

      Even with somewhat specialty stuff. I've got about 200 +p nickel plated cases W-W and around 140 FC of the same. Not sure I really need it marked +p, but hey, I can load one or both up for rolling my own XTP loads. Even 45acp, I don't collect much, but I still usually walk away with 10-40...

      M1903 vs M1917

      I did the same thing with a Garand. I think the issue in general is that any kind of peep sight is going to be hard to read in low light. That said, notch sights aren't all that much better. At least for me, in low light. Ghost ring and fiber work okay in low light. Buttttt, a halfway decent...

      Why did ATF make the Form 4 process faster?

      Could just be they finally got the executive leadership and funding in place to make internal reforms. I've got no visibility on what they have going on, but maybe the finished the modernization of some internal applications they use for the review officers so some IT modernization is finally...

      Pre Estate sale suggestions

      Good point. And to the OP’s mention of their health. Depending on if it is a flippant comment or actual diagnosis, if my days were numbered and I had a good idea of how few they’d be, I would go the fastest route on converting what I had to a usable to me or my next of kin form. Even if I...

      Pre Estate sale suggestions

      confirming that yes. This is the way. If they keep it overnight, it has to be logged. Once it it logged, it has to be transferred. There is a narrow exception I think for gunsmiths.

      Pre Estate sale suggestions

      You still have to figure losing 20-30% on the consignment fee. Depends a lot on the shop, but figure you are only going to get 10% more on consignment than if the shop just buys it from you. It’s a better way to go if you are really in no hurry or the shop low balls you. But if you think...

      I LOVE MY.45 CAL 'SHROOMS !

      Ya'll, why the necro posts? You seriously had me reading from the beginning until I got to the "what? If you have two bars pure lead and one bar with 3% antimony, you still have 3% antimony" and I facepalmed. OH, right, now I know why this thread sounds oddly familiar. DOH!

      9mm case explosion with Gen 3 G34

      Yeah, an OOB with a glock would take disconnector defect or a double feed. I guess in theory if the recoil spring is defective or very weak, it could cycle fast enough rearward that the high case pressure would just straight up blow the case out. Brass wears out. Pistol brass not as fast as...

      CFE223 - 6.5 grendel

      I like it in my .223 also. Heck, I like it in my .308 even. My "generic" 150gr Hornady 150gr FMJBT loads (no clue the exact specs) run fast and accurate. I am running a little over MOA on my Sako Forester and about 1.4" for my 18" AR-10.
