Re: Anyone in the path of the Snowpocalypse?

I thought they said that Boston had gotten record snow fall? It's currently 18*F here in Tennessee but on Wedensday night it's suppose to get to -6*F to -9*F here on the Plateau, that's like it use to get up in MI or IN when I lived up there. This is just crazy cold.

Re: Glock conversion barrels ?

Storm Lake makes a pretty good barrel from what I've read. If the time comes for a conversion barrel for a Glock then it'll be Storm Lake or KKM but I'll not get another Lone Wolf barrel, that's for sure.

Re: ATF Seeking to Ban 5.56 Green Tip Ammo

So are we all just going to bend over and take it and smile or have we finally reached out "line in the sand" where our 2nd Amendment Rights are concerned? At this rate it's only a matter of time before all center fire rifle ammo is banned because it'll all penetrate a IIIa bullet proof ve...

Re: Glock conversion barrels ?

When I said that Lone Wolf had "Tight Tolerances" I wasn't equating that to High Quality in any way. I'm simply saying that from my own experience and from countless threads that I've read on the subject that Lone Wolf barrels tend to have tight chambers and little to no lead/free bore/thr...

Re: Obama submits war plan to congress over ISIS

Obama is just trying to cover his butt by having Congress make the decision to go to "WAR" instead of doing it on his own. That way if things go sideways he can blame them and not take the heat. Also, with all of his Apologetics for Radical Islam I'm more sure then ever that he's a Closet ...

Re: Glock conversion barrels ?

I bought a LW barrel for a G30 that I had so I could shoot lead out of it(you CAN shoot hard cast lead out of a factory Glock barrel though so it's really not necessary to get a different barrel) and I ended up having to open up the throat because my handloads wouldn't chamber without sticking into ...

Re: 9mm vs 45acp

If I were stuck with non-expanding ammo then I'd go 45acp all day every day with a 230gr Flat Nose bullet. As long as I can get hollow point bullets to handload I'll go with the 9x19mm because I like having the extra rounds on tap.

Re: 9mm vs 45acp

Don't really plan on shooting that far down range since I'll be using my handgun in a defensive manner so 10 yards would probably be closer to the norm then 50 yards. My G26 carries 12+1(got the +2 on it) unless I put a G17 mag in it then I get 17+1. Sure, you can put a G21 mag in a G30 and have 13+...

Re: 9mm vs 45acp

If this test is accurate,which seems reasonable ,the the .45 is almost twice as good as the 9. If performance was equal then the .45 delivers almost twice as much kinetic energy. http://www.speer-ammo.com/ballistics/detail.aspx?loadNo=23617 http://www.speer-ammo.com/ballistics/detail.aspx?loadNo=23...
