Don't know of West End but I do know where Dunkelbergers is. I didn't see any powder advertised there on th web though.

I'll go check the site now, but I know he's doing the Carlisle gun show this weekend and doesn't have store hours whenever he does a show.

Tough guy to get a hold of. Open every evening for real?

In the original thread, I mentioned that I still have my three originals: a Remington 22 semi-auto rifle, a Savage-Stevens 12 gauge pump, and a Winchester Model 70 308. Until last year I thought I had no interest in handguns, but turns out I was wrong! It's only completed for me (and maybe only for now).

So, I decided to get into reloading. First to lower the drain on my $$$ that shooting a variety of calibers every week has created, second because I'm a tech rat, and third maybe to eventually get into developing loads for the fun of it. Dropped a fair amount of coin on decent, but not crazy, equipment, and now I'm ready to go with one little problem, where the hell do you get powder these days?! I've never seen so many variations on the phrase out of stock. There isn't a single decent broad range powder out there that I can find evev if you are willing to pay the Hazmat fees. These are great times to be a shooter.

I'd have voted the 4" mag as well unless you have something like it, but since you are more into the long guns, I vote Garand. To paraphrase "Animal Farm", they are all classics , but some are more classic than others. You can't go wrong.

More than likely they were just checking for squeeky floorboards

Total aside here, but I shoot every Monday at Heritage too and would like to see your GP. What time do you usually finish shooting? (The wife goes with me most mornings and we never get there before 10.)

Same question as Nelson

I must admit that I have only gone about 6 times, but it was generally on the weekends. Only once the rifle ports were all full, oddly on a Monday,and that was during sighting in season. We never had to wait for a pistol port.

Not only are they two amazing platforms, they are both classic guns. You won't regret it.

No arguement with the tac range being used, just not as a tac range very often. Any time I've seen it used or been on it, it's just to handle overflow from the other ranges, not for all the fancy and expensive features. Personally, I'm there at least once a week and often more and I love the place and the people there. Semi-upscale so the gals don't feel out of place, and very friendly. Best of all are the the people. I just wish the tactical range was not so $$$.

I found a Springfield TRP on this site and paid $900 even for it with no taxes and no fees as it was a FTF in NJ. The point is, if you are patient and vigilent and a little lucky they are out there!

Good luck with that 'cost to the minimum' thing. Set up is $$$, then you get the savings and the die sets are not the nut.

No problems. It stays as is, until it gets more then it'll stay like that!

Get more permits, buy your second GP, then get a semi too as they are different but the same as far as fun.

Oh, and I tried shooting the piss out of it but only bullets come out. I'll have to order the attachment?

I took your first advice but I think it looks even worse that way. I'm not obsessing or anything and it is getting shot quite nicely, but if anyone knew of a simple fix, why not?

I've had no issues with the promags despite their reputation. Hundreds of rounds through them. And, despite the pending vote on regulations buy them, don't let the d__kheads win.

Sorry about the no pics, but I hate using photobucket. I tried to include it in the original post and it was so small you couldn't tell anything. Also their site is slow as ... the gun is brushed stainless and the marks show as shiny spots. They are small, but it would be nice to have them gone.

Maybe that's why the new tactical section is rarely being used. Love the place but it's all about the money.

So, I bought a used 45 knowing there are holster marks on the slide. Does anyone know of any simple way to remove the marks?

They are great and will eat anything without a hiccup. Accurate and comfortable too. Enjoy

Some guns just stand out. That's one of them.
