Still looking for the *right* holster. Probably go for a crossdraw. Bought a case of .357 MAG ammo, 12 boxes of 50 rounds each. Already had a case of .38 Special ammo I had ordered previously. These calibers are readily available via mail order, but in short or non-existent supply at local hunting/fishing stores. Lots of .45ACP around locally, though. Go figure. |

By the time you take your second shot, you've been zombied... :) Practice my man, practice. You seem very hung up on this muzzle flip thing. Once you build your muscle memory, you are back down on the target in fractions of a second. That is the big difference between guys who like slow fire at 25-50 yards and guys who do rapid fire strings at 7 or less. Lately the only thing I have been doing is "extend and fire" a double tap from the retention position with the gun starting in D/A. That gets me used to both trigger pulls and creates the muscle memory for an instinctive shot in bad light. It also reinforces taking your finger from "safe" (along the slide) to being on the trigger ... and back. Most target shooters I see pick up the gun with their finger in the guard! I assume they do the same thing when they hear a bump in the night. I have to admit, I did it too before guys like Ayoob started teaching the finger along the frame thing. Now it is the standard practice. http://gfretwell.com/ftp/elian-gonzalez.jpg The only thing that is not scary in this picture I was taught finger along the frame by the CCW instructor over in Virgina. Never developed the habit of keeping a finger in the guard. Too dangerous, especially with the CZ competition pistol I had. I have a friend with a .454 casul and a short barrel. Muzzle flip and slow cycling are issues. He says decent ammo for it is about a buck and a half to two bucks a round. No thanks. You really need to reload if you are shooting something like that. I never really had an interest in one but I have shot them. The one I shot had a fairly long barrel in a heavy hunting handgun, scoped so the recoil wasn't as bad as a saturday night special Charter .44 mag. I bet that gun was 50 oz or more. It was a big chunk of metal to hold, offhand. The guy who owned it said you really want a rest when you are shooting it. At that point it is basically a carbine. A shoulder stock might be the way to go. I've read a few articles and watched a couple of videos on reloading. It looks too tedious to interest me and several reloaders I know up here have told me that the supplies sometimes cannot be easily found, even via mail order. I am saving my brass, though. More than one local reloader has expressed interest in swapping brass for reloads on some yet to be determined basis, although that makes me nervous because of the varying skills of these guys. I've tried three brands of speed loaders...HKS, Safariland, and Five Star. I like the Safariland and Five Star...the HKS not so much. |

It looks too tedious to interest me and several reloaders I know up here have told me that the supplies sometimes cannot be easily found, even via mail order. Reloading is really for people who want a money saving hobby. If you get a progressive multistation reloader with the foot pedal actuator, it really goes pretty fast. I just used a single station RCBS loader. It was still about a quarter, every time I loaded a round so it was rewarding for a guy who didn't have a lot of money. I also enjoyed working up rounds after I got my chronograph and a range in the basement. I am saving my brass, though. More than one local reloader has expressed interest in swapping brass for reloads on some yet to be determined basis, although that makes me nervous because of the varying skills of these guys. I tend to agree. As long as you are shooting light target loads, a little fluctuation in the powder charge is not a huge deal but when you are loading up around the max, I really want to do it myself I've tried three brands of speed loaders...HKS, Safariland, and Five Star. I like the Safariland and Five Star...the HKS not so much. I have a couple of speed loaders for my OM but I am not sure I ever used them. If you think you will be in that kind of situation, take a semi auto. I paid about .40+ cents a round for the case of .357s I bought, and the .38 Specials are about a dime less. If you are saying reloading is about .25 cents a round, and I shot a real ton of ammo, in the long run, it might be worth doing. If the supplies were readily available, but that's not my understanding. The difference is when you get to performance ammo that can be closer to a buck a round. I just shoot ordinary FMJs or JHPs. I'm not interested in deer, hog, or bear hunting. I just have the speedloaders for play and to show off my clumsiness as I empty the brass into a tupperware box and try to get the speedloaders to load the cylinder, all within a short period of time. This new revolver is much too big to be a "carry" sidearm. It takes longer to load a speed loader than it takes to load the gun. If there is nobody shooting at you, why bother? I told you...for "play." |

Poor harold, still stuck with his lame attempts at 7th grade insults. I find no issues with ejecting brass from a SA. If you use good quality loads in a properly maintained revolver, most will fall out without even using the ejector. I do realize that when you get older, your dexterity starts to fail. Perhaps you'd do better with a less demanding hobby... maybe stamp collecting. |

I asked for a cite about 11,000 gun deaths a year provided by "illegal gun owners." Were they "illegal" before they shot someone or before? Nearly half of gun deaths each year are suicides, should we expect that'll be your fitting end when you've had enough? It would be your fitting end but like harry, you won't come out from under a desk.... You talk big, nobody here believes a bit of it really... |
