  1. Winning is a by product of most of the things mentioned in some of the latest threads. Training on the proper techniques, mental conditioning and practice. You can train to win battles but the war or being best in the world is most times out of our control.
  2. Does the thumb safety work without the slide on? If not then the safety is not fitted properly. I took it apart and the safety works OK with the slide off. So does that mean the notch in the slide is the problem?
  3. As far as having the MSDS's for the ingrediants on sight for your employees, you should. OSHA can always sight you under the General Duty Clause. As far as your end users if they are using it in small amounts, IE clean a firearm with, the warnings or MSDS info contained on the container it is puchased in is usually adequate. Check out a can of WD-40 you will see a basic MSDS right on the container.
  4. The thumb safety gets stuck in the up position and I can't get it to release. I have put 2 different safeties on it but they both do the same thing Any help appreciated.
  5. 22 cal. won't quite do it, but 40 and 10mm do just fine. I did it to mine and it wasn't because I had a replacement. Hope this helps.
  6. It's a Bushmaster Carbon AR-15. I had more trouble with the white box Winchester than with a box of Wolf I had with me at the time.
  7. I test drove this AR last evening, it would run for 5 or 6 rounds then fail to feed the next round. I tried 3 different mag brands, the OK brand was the most reliable. This is chambered for the 5.56 nato round and I was shooting .223, could this have been an issue? Any help appreciated.
  8. Has anyone had this problem with the Champion, the slide locks back before the mag is empty. It happens with 10 and 7 rd. mags, and 230 grain rn ammo. A mag problem, recoil spring, or what? Thanks for any help.
  9. Well he took his 45 XD out and took one that weighed approx. 800 lbs, the first shot did bounce off of the skull which caused a little excitement but he got it down and it's now in the smoke house. Thanks guys for the advice and stories.
  10. Who is currently making speedloaders for the 10 shot 617. Just got one and have a bunch of ammo to burn. Thanks guys
  11. My son is going on a pig hunt going to be shooting probably inside of 50 yds. Anyone out there ever shot one with a 45 acp? I am concerned about penetration of the hide with a 900 fps load. Thanks
  12. I expirimented with wearing both lenses and then took the left one out and now just shoot with one in the right side for the front sight. Might be worth a try.
  13. The last one I seen was a 22 long rifle but it was at Impactguns.com. I am not sure if they have any more at this time though.
  14. The accura bullets are .399 - .400 in diameter and average .717 in length.
  15. Thanks Raul, I will take some measurements tonight. Just test fired a couple of rounds, doesn't feel too bad. Thanks again Shoot fast accuracy will come!
  16. These bullets are Accura West Coast series. I am loading to an oal of 1.273, I have not loaded up a full mag in the model 20 glock but they look like they will be alright, if not they will go in the revo.
  17. Anyone out there started working up any kind of loads using a 220 gr. plated bullet and n-320 powder? I have pulled up a few 40 s&w loads for a start but my chrono buddy is up in the mountains chasing bambi for a week. Thanks guys

    Base Pads

    Probably been covered before but, who makes extended base pads for the 20/21 model besides the Scheer thing?
  19. One way to look at any competitive endevour is that it gives you the opportunity to take all that you have learned and expirienced practicing and apply it. When practicing ahoooting or other sports I take breaks in whaat I am trying to accomplish and flat screw off, whether that be loading up a mag and just going nuts on one close target, shooting hoops with the off hand, trying to fade a golf ball when you are a hooker for life or whatever. Then prior to competing focus solely on those things you have practiced succesfully at and the results will amaze you.
  20. I am having trouble getting reloads to fire consistently in my 625 or 610, using federal primers. What action work do I need to have done to eliminate the problem? The 625 is a performance center gun and the 610 was worked over by Cylinder & Slide. Thanks for any help you guys can give.
  21. Thanks for the help guys, the hydra shok measures 1.251 oal. I am going to tear the mag down later. I brought some 40 loads I shoot in an STI that are 1.230". Thanks again
  22. The one and only mag that came with this handgun will not accept factory 10 mm loads. The OAL is too long so as you load it up the ammo binds up in the magazine preventing it from feeding. Has Kimber mis-marked any single stack 40 mags or is this just a freak quality glitch. Also what damage can be done if I do shoot 40's out of this gun. Thanks Jed B.
  23. The 1050 is set up to load 40s&w. The problem I am having is when I set the bullet on the seating station and cycle the machine the case and or the bullet are being damaged at the case mouth. This happens mainly with nickel cases more so that brass. Anyone out there have any suggestions? I have tried opening up the case a little more and has helped a little.
