      Why so expensive?

      I know this particular type of ammo is currently rare and hard to find. But why would it be so expensive and this site only has two boxes? Almost every site I have looked has been out of stock. It usually sells for just over $400 a case of 900 rounds. Any ideas?

      Forging mark / logo on AR receivers?

      I have seen this logo mark on quite a few 6061-T6 forged lower and upper receivers. As you may be able to tell in the photo, the mark on this lower is just rear of the trigger opening on the right side (with buffer tube towards you). It looks like an old skeleton keyway hole in a door or...

      357 Sig won't chamber or very tight

      Hello. I just read a great three page thread here called "357 Sig case prep" which is great information, but still had some questions and didn't feel like hijacking someone else's thread. I load 14 different pistol and rifle calibers on a Dillon 550B and have almost 15 years experience...

      +1 Magazine extension for Ruger LCP

      Hello, I have tried several products from Galloway Precision and have liked the fit, function and quality of everything so far. This week I received a very nice aluminum type II anodized LCP magazine extension. It wouldn't fit my magazine so I tried another, and it still wouldn't slide on...

      Drying brass after wet tumbling

      I like to dry my brass on one of my wife's bathroom towels in front of the fire place after wet tumbling. Now that the weather has warmed up a bit, this is no longer a viable option until fall. What are some of your favorite ways to dry your brass?

      Too many 10/22s?

      How many 10/22s are considered to be "too many?" Whenever I mention getting another 10/22 because it is different than any I have, my wife is quick to say that I already have "too many." I'm not even sure she knows exactly how many I actually have. I realize that the standard textbook...

I would like to attend a MD gun show sometime in the near future, but if I can't purchase firearms or reloading components it almost...

      Find Magazine for Taurus 380acp?

      I have a co-worker who is trying to find a magazine for his semiautomatic Taurus in 380acp. Unfortunately, he is not having any success. He only has one magazine for it and it was damaged recently. And to further complicate the issue he doesn’t live near a gun shop and the gun itself only has...
