I've got this new caliper since the old one crapped out on me. The trouble is I have no clue what the absolute function is or, how to use it. I've been searching the net and just can't seem to find details of how to use the absolute function. Any help / links etc. Would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Due to age, Diabetes, and Glaucoma, I think I need to change the sights on my Glock to something easier to see. Suggestions for sight or, sight kit upgrades would surely be appreciated Thanks! ?

Yep that's what it is alright! ? Seems, I've read somewhere that you could replace the firing pin with a series 70 pin to get around that or, is that done for a different purpose? Please correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks!

Thanks for the tips! are there any tutorials on how to go about pinning it? ? Wow, after googling I noticed that to be a pretty common problem for quite a few people. I think I'll try more practice but if I keep having problems I'll probably just trade it in on something else.

I really like this pistol but, when I try riding my thumb on top of the thumb safety I don't always get the grip, safety depressed enough to be able to fire the gun? If I cram the web of my hand into the grip safety then, when I move my thumb over on top of the (thumb) safety it feels really awkward and actually hurts my thumb. I've tried riding thumb below thumb safety and of course, once in a while during recoil my thumb has turned the safety on by accident. Any tips or links I could go to that might help would be greatly appreciated Thanks Folks! ?

It's the all steel very little recoil or muzzle flip!

This is my first glock ever, and I would like to do a few upgrade mods to it starting with replacing the guide rod/ spring combination. Any suggestions on what would make a good replacement? I don't shoot any type of competition just local range and might, consider carry once in a while. Thanks!

I've been told this is pretty much the same as a jericho 941 purchased it used for $100.00 don't know much about it yet but, seems to be solid made and I like the way the slide hooks inside of the frame instead of around it as most semi-autos are. Anyone familiar with these and are they pretty decent shooters? Thanks!

Thanks for the tip!

About Titegroup, if used in a RCBS Chargemaster 1500 remove the powder as soon as your done because it will eat right into the clear hopper tube and even the green base area. Otherwise I have had good performance with it in 9mm. I'm pretty new to reloading so, I don't understand the major,minor load lingo.

This is the first load I have tried with my Kimber Stainless II. 45 acp. Hornady 230gn.fmj, Win brass, CCI primers and Accurate #2 powder. I used 4.8grs. of powder, and an OAL of 1.260" using LEE 4 die set with light taper crimp the press is a Forster Coax. I seated and taper crimped where the rounds were too long to fit the mag. I then, reseated to 1.260" but, did not re crimp again could that be the cause of the unburned powder? powder charge maybe too light or a combination of both? The only other powder I have right now is W231 to try. Funny thing is, at 10yds. 5 shot group had one wild flier probably me, and the other 4 rounds made one hole measuring under 1". Thanks for all advice! Forgot, I also have Titegroup powder but that stuff eats up my RCBS Chargemaster hopper really fast.

I also, put a KKM conversion barrel in my m&p 40 and have been reloading for it and really like it's performance I also, installed one of the fail safe extractors and competition trigger kits. I think, the extractor brand and trigger kit is Apex Tactical brand if I remember right.

So these (will) be drop in barrels also? I already have a KKM drop in conversion barrel so I will probably just stick with it unless, they prove to be much better shooting barrels. I'll be keeping a close eye on this thread just in case though!

I'm looking for group shooting loads along with OAL not for speed, and mostly at 15yds. and maybe 25yds. once in a while. Thanks!
