    PC Carbine stock choice questions

    I'm thinking about getting a PC carbine, but I'm mulling over the different stock choices for it. I've picked up the 19122 model with the AR15 grip/stock and I really like the way that fits me and feels, but I don't like the overall weight of it. I've picked up the 19100 model with the more...

    RAR standard or compact in 308?

    Thanks guys, I found a shop with both. Like you DDubya one is just a bit short and the other just a bit long...

    RAR standard or compact in 308?

    Hi Everyone, I'm thinking about getting a RAR for some range time and the possible hint of some hunting as well. Mostly I like shooting targets and have always wanted a 308 for some reason. I like the value for price, the detachable magazine, and the stock doesn't bother me at all even though...

    Should a SRH transfer bar be under spring pressure?

    Hi, I think this is normal, but on my SRH Alaskan the transfer bar doesn't appear to be under any spring tension and is free to move forward and back. I noticed on a Blackhawk that the transfer bar seems to have a little rearward spring tension, so it doesn't rattle when you move the gun. Is...

    How is NVB-444-SPCL / 5232 recoil?

    Hi Everyone, I'm still drawn to wanting to trying one of these. How is the recoil / shooting comfort of this revo compared to a 357 50th? I know they are quite similar in terms of weight, grip, etc. Thanks, Alan

    Glock reliability...

    If that doesn't fix it, I'd send it back for the new ejector. Call Glock up and demand it goes back on their dime, they will do it. They will install the new ejector which has been solving issues for most people.

    Glock reliability...

    Actually I've been following what I will call the "Gen 4 Disaster" for months over at GT and the biggest problem has been Gen4 19's. They at first had too strong a recoil spring assembly for it. They screwed with the extractor/ejector and everyone was getting hit with brass or failures to...

    RL550B

    I love my Dillon 550, it does all I ask of it! I came up with the idea of the Press Monitor because I wanted something to make sure I didn't forget to index it. Check it out at www.pressmonitordevice.com As soon as I get a conversion kit and some dies, I'm going to be loading 44 magnum on it...

    Confused New Reloader

    I agree; I'd go with jacketed or copper plated for your first loading in 9mm. If you want a turret style press (4 pulls = 1 round) look at the Lee Classic Turret, but if you want a progressive look at the Dillon 550. Many people will tell you to learn on a single stage and that isn't bad...

    Mini 14 questions...

    Hi Matt, Thanks for the reply. So you have the tunable block? Was it easy to install? How far does your brass travel with it configured the way you like? Do you use case lube when loading the 223's? Thanks, Alan
