Vlad - Isn't XM193 real loose on a 7.62X39 chamber?..

Congrats!!! I'm interested to hear what S&W says about steel cased ammo. I gave some away because I won't shoot it. BTW now you can change your screen name since you have a modern rifle.

Pipes - Just want your opinion. Any shots taken will be point blank. Think that still holds true?

Bob look at the Burris no lapping there either, though I think lapping is unmnecessary in most cases.

+1

Big +1 The calendar is set up atleast 6 months in advance. Ask me how I know.... Watch for a GLOCK demo day this spring.

If you competed I'm sure you would feel differently. Maybe a compomise can be found.

Spoiler!!!!!! Guess Opie's contract was up! And Gemma is turning into a dirtbag!

Most modern pistols are controled feed and I would not do it. But I can only speak for GLOCK officially. Why do it anyway? Let the pistol operate in the fashion it was designed to operate.

NO, NO. NO!!!!!! GLOCK expressly says not to load the chamber and then close the slide. GLOCK pistols are controlled feed and the rim slips under the extractor as the slide moves forward. I don't want to go into too much detail but don't do it!!!

I remember this topic coming up before. Once a week I unload my pistol, take the chambered round and put it back in the mag, then reload with the same round. I ease the slide down into battery when I load the pistol. I have never eperienced any bullet set back and the bullet appears to be perfect after several dozen loadings. Now if I repeatedly dropped the slide from open lock I would prehaps expect some set back.

WOW! Went so smooth I almost forgot what the deal was... Enjoy!

I have a hunting license and two clay throwers. BTW the license thing is seldom enforced.

Congrats pop! Some stuff you never forget.

Ray - I'll speak slowly and watch my lips.... They have a 5 station set-up like sporting clays at Cherry Ridge...Got that? And I have my eye on a Mossberg 500 Cruiser that you can shoot one handed clays with, Now we're going to trace the letters in the sand... Do just like I do... :wild:

It's all about locality. We could do your trigger at Mastodon as well as anyone else but you on the kind of far.

If we went to CR we could do the 5 station thing for the "hawk eyes" and if I get the Cruiser I have my eye on we could see who can shoot one handed clays.

Hey handsome I have an extensive collection of taps but am on the other side if the world. If you need a metric tap I can shoot ya a drill and tap in the mail.

I've seen Youtube videos that scare the $h!T out of me. There are do's and DONT'S. I've worked with these a bit and all I can say is stay away from the sear and striker. It's your pistol and do what you want just don't endanger anyone else. My rule of thumb is if it is a service pistol it stays stock and unmolested.

Be VERY careful. You don't want to make a machine gun.

CR or Clinton WMA

Jon - You're a hater!

And further more...If I can make it we can have a few pieces of tupperware to use.

Interesting article.
