I've never much cared what he said, she said, it's like rumors in the work place, If I find a product that I like, THAT is what I use, when I was doing security work in Memphis years ago I always carried a ruger security six (yes I still have it), back then all there was in auto was a 1911 colt or springfield, both good guns but at that time I prefered the 357 mag., the point is if you like the xd then over look anyone else's bad mouthing, could be because they were beated in comp. by a xd, some people are pretty shallow. On my part I have two xd's the 45 and one of the new xdm's in 40, I feed them both factory and reload ammo and they eat it all
, I'm sure the mp is a fine wepon but it's also the latest, hence the hipe. Keep your xd's -
That is one great web site

Thanks heckler, merry X-Mas

saw a interesting item in a gun shop the other day, a rock island double stack, but no magazines and the owner of the shop had no knowledge of which magazine would fit, I have pars for my para and springfields would they also fit the rock island (45 acp) thanks

you could just go to the atf website, it is very informative, but very long and drawn out. At least it was the last time I was there, I did'nt think you could change one out, period., or was that just on the west coast

Shoot what suits you- never let gear hold you back.
shoot what feels right to YOU!, if you get into the equipment race there is no turning back
good luck and good shooting

I've got two, both non-loaded military, one remained 45, added bo-mar rear site and dawson nose cap, wilson beavertail, kart barrel it will use the springfield or para magazines with dawon base pads and get 16 or 17 in magazine (can remember getting old) every now and then had ftf issue but was bad ammo, ajusted that and it rain fine. Other on had rebuilt in 40 by local gunsmith and never did run right
, put them away 3 yrs ago when remodling home and health became first priorty, but that's all done now, hoping to restart next year, bottom line if you have a GOOD gunsmith slightly modifiy your springfield hc and strighting your magazines and good ammo, it will run like a striped ape -
Anyone else noticed that ar-15, ak's, and sks's are flying of gunshops ranks, they tell me that rifle sales have jumped 100% in last two weeks, gee I wonder why?

I am very happly employed and have not been downsized YET!, when to gun auction yesterday and got a great deal on a new XDM (no mags) and a mini-30 with two magazines. Estate auctions for guns are better, someones private collections that their family does not want or will never use, bought a great looking browning auto-5 about 3 months ago, normally seems like fall is when the most auctions are, if you can afford to go you can find some great deals there, depending on what you want

the little red thingy
, it happens, order the spare parts kit it has two or three of them plus just about any other part that wears out or brecks over time -
any guess on the magazine cap? with or without a magazine base
-
Shotgun News and Gun digest hold my insterest the most, and what ever is in walmart and the grocery store, but the last couple years when the Handgunner has put out their gun catalog of the coming year, you have to take it with a grain of salt, they will list guns that ARE NOT going to be for sale because the manufacture is not makeing them, like the S.A. 40S&W in 1911 format that they have had listed for years, that S.A. still has not made, except for a very short run about 5 years ago
, although they could make major bucks if they would put it in high-cap 1911. -
+1 on hydra-shok 230 in 45acp, with good placement it should have good stopping power, I would never reload my carry ammo, if for nothing else to keep the lawyers happy.
-
the only reload I do is 45 and just starting on 40, the S&B seem to work on the 45 and haven't come across any in the 40 yet, I toss all amerc and military brass, the amerc in just totall crap and the military is too much of a hassel
-
buy it, much faster than turret, dillon's warrenty should cover the older models, and if it's not right you can always have it rebuilt by dillon, you'll like it
-
you'll always get the right answer to the problem on the this forum, the only stupid question is the one NOT asked
-
amazing how it take's so many small parts to make one work, good luck!
-
Also use the search engine here... there are hundreds of posts on reloading, brass, powder etc etc.
I'll try to find a better way to search, thanks...

there are no stupid questions

if it's real it's prob a old colt or ittica, leave it alone it's more of a keeper than a fixer

only problem I have had with high primers is my bench was kinda loose and not pressing up on the handle hard enought, that's why the make bullet pullers,however I learned very quickely why to stay away from military brass in 45

starting low and working up while using a chrono is the safety way of developing any load, better safe than sorry on the shooting range
