Finally read the FAQs (3/11)

  1. major vs minor.....we should have have super major for us "real" men. We take the bite of the super major 45 and 10mm's, nothing but A's on every target. Yup, super major, the only way to go. Some of my 45's put a dent in the steel, they've got so much power to them... Ah, I'll wake up in a little while and claim that I never said any of this. Really I will. Minor with speedloaders, that's the ticket... michael sousa
  2. It works as long as your hands are big enough for the large frame g20. I have a bunch of standard frame 40's and large framed guns, my hands are about in the middle. I like the g20 with the 40 barrel in it, but watch the conversion barrel for having a short chamber, mine needs to get reamed out more. I load a little longer for the big framed gun than for my standard frames and the rounds don't always seat in the chamber fully. I need them a little longer to work 100% in the 10mm mags. Other than that, I love the big gun. i also use a g21 with the stock slide and with Nik's long slide on it, very soft shooting gun. Good luck with it. michaels
  3. I'm assuming this is IDPA? We had a ruling from the HQ that you had to shoot what was stamped on the gun and couldn't "game" loading shorter cases into 38 spl/357 guns.. We had a gent try to shoot the short colts in a K frame gun and was told he had to use 38 spl's.. Now I'm a gent? wtf? - michaels
  4. usually I leave the bent ones in the driveway and park the truck on them over night, if that doesn't work, I bring them back to the range and give them to some other revo guy just starting out.... michaels
  5. yup, still is, if you really want it, Paypal to acmeproductions@pacbell.net or if you want to send check/cash/money order it goes to Mike Sousa P.O. Box 299, Cotati, California 94931 or give me a call at 707.573.3021 for more info on it.

  6. Is your Safariland 008 still available? Me want! E Mont

  7. Warren is spot on with his info... refer back a few years ago and i posted how to make a cutter for cutting your 38 special brass down to short or long colt size. So far I've cut close to 1800 cases down and they work just fine. Load them up with 170 bear creeks and you've got a nice icore load, about 124 to 128 pf depending on barrel length. Never have to buy short colt agains, just use that range 38 that people leave behind. michaels
  8. If it was me, I'd junk the gun and keep the hearthco moons... michaels
  9. Dave, a really good gunsmith can convert the gun to the 10 round version, or if you're close to S&W they can do it there. I had mine done there and a couple others that I know did the same. Really makes a good gun into a great gun. Plus you can now get the DS-10's and have a great rimfire steel gun. michaels
  10. http://www.lpasights.com/catalog.html I've replaced most of my stock ones as they break with the lpa rear sight. Couple of different models of them. no complaints from me yet on them. michaels
  11. Joel, you can use acmeproductions@pacbell.net for paypal or send check/money order/cash to

    Mike Sousa, p.o. box 299, cotati, ca. 94931

    thanks

  12. without barrel & recoil assembly but with the cut out on top, it's 1.06 lbs - sights are steel dawson rear and steel dawson front. michaels
  13. His sons are now running the business. thanks Mike, found his obit on the web, really was a cool guy, had his finish on a couple of guns and cylinders, he was great to work with. michaels
  14. Yeah...uh....that's going to be an awkward phone call. Walter Birdsong died two years ago. Well now, I called the number and Walt's old message is still on the machine (kinda wierd) maybe one of his kids is still in the business. Or maybe Walt is hiding out. michaels
  15. WE Birdsong & Associates (Black-T) 1435 Monterey Road Florence, MS 39073 (601) 939-7448 This gentleman puts on a coating that is used by the US navy, he loves old guns and is a hoot to work with. Give Walter a call and tell him what you've got, he's a great guy to work with. michael
