Re: Any rifle reloading people would would give me an hour?

Too far away to give you an hour but will pass along a few things I`ve learned. 1. Don't try to make some super duper magnum round out of what was never intended. Good solid low to mid range rounds will give you years of fun. 2. Find the best components you can. Most of those milsurp rounds you men...

Any rifle reloading people would would give me an hour?

Just as the title says.. I just got my (new to me) Lee turret press over the weekend. The guy I bought it from helped set it up and ran me through reloading some 9mm. I've spend the last month or so scouring websites, articles, etc. on reloading. So between the two I think I've got a pretty decent h...

Re: Gun and ammo deflation suggests now is a good time to take advantage of sales

I'll say, I'm not seeing it. Using ammoseek, 9mm, brass, new is still running around 25 cents per round. Been that price for several months now. Oh, I guess a few calibers have come down but nothing like pre pandemic and probably will never go that low again. I'm just starting into reloading, mostl...

Re: Quick question about 30.05

The very short answer is no, 30.05 signs have no concern to those with LTC. That particular penal code was rewritten under house bill 1927 as it relates to unlicensed carry, they had to change some of the language of the penal code and sign. So that sign only applies to those who carry without LTC.

LOL… I know. I’m always happy to get one over my HOA. I’ve actually won quite a few disagreements with them.

Re: Legal thoughts

I realize this is not a law site. I realize most here are not attorneys. That said, I'm curious of opinions on the following HOA CCR declaration. It specifies "motorized vehicles". Could one argue non-motorized trailers aren't encompassed? Section 9. Vehicles and Parking. The term "v...

My last class Sunday (yesterday) had 23 students. 6 Female 4 African 4 Hispanic 3 Asian / Indian Aged 21 to 75 years old. I have had classes ...

Re: 2023 Instructor Renewals

I'm thinking we won't get the link to the online class & test until after Sept 1st, since that's when most of new legislation tends to go into effect. If I recall correctly, when we have to go in-person for the renewal class, the dates are crammed between Sept to Dec. Just got my email for the ...
