    Anybody do a 460 Rowland conversion on their 1911?

    No, but I shoot one on a Springfield Armory XD-M. Turns your semi automatic into a 44 mag equivalent. You need a much heavier magazine spring which makes the magazines really hard to load. Mine has a locktited compensator on it and a different recoil spring, so it’s not an easy switch back and...

    If posting that link gets you banned, it’s not worth going to that site in the first place.

    Impractical and absurd revolver...

    I carry a pug 22 mag. I use the personal defense ammo. I can hit a 6 inch steel target at 7-10 yards most of the time, like 3-4 of 5. Shot a mink in the chicken coop once. The firearm fits nicely in my pocket. I feel fairly secure with it in my pocket. I live in a rural area without much crime...

    Washington Commanders

    They had no idea that the team will be referred to as the “Commies.” That’s some good planning.

    What are your thoughts on snowshoeing?

    I gave our snowshoes away. You still sink into the snow, your feet are way farther apart than normal. We bought cross country skis, which are much better. Still not my favorite activity. Snowshoeing is definitely my least favorite activity and I’m pretty active.

    Been Feeling Down...Deer Season Next Week

    I’m not motivated either. No one else came because of covid. I guess my interests are changing. I haven’t fired a weapon in a year. I watched a few deer and enjoyed that. I’m probably done for the year. I’m busy doing other things though.

    Olfactory prowess of dogs may help identify COVID-19

    Is that what my dog was trying to tell me? I thought he just wanted a treat or to go outside to poop.

    Mosquito Trap

    I ran them. They seemed to break after putting them away for the summer. They would not start in the spring and they have a one year warranty. I was constantly hauling propane, attractant and buying supplies. I figured it cost me a dime a mosquito. I gave up and now have my yard sprayed for...

    Get out and shoot more

    On the bright side, I’m well prepared.

    Get out and shoot more

    We’ve been living in this house for 20 years. Now the kids are in college so time to move to a more rural area. Today carrying boxes of ammo and bullets out of the basement, all I could think was, ”I wish I had shot more of this heavy stuff!” Don’t let yourself get in my position.

    The loose nut behind the trigger

    I was ready to start googling where it could buy a gp100 like that.

    Old Army

    I have 2 fixed sight 5.5 blued unfired old armies that I can’t get any interest in. I’ve posted them on here a couple times. Timing seems to be everything.

    Rossi 6" 12 gauge Shotgun Pistol

    A 500 smith and Wesson will push a 700 gr bullet at 1200 FPS. I’ve touched a few of those off. I can’t say I enjoyed it though.
