    Aftermarket 1911 mags

    After you told me it was a Galco I realized I have one of those in black for my 5" 1911. I bought it for almost the same reason. I thought it would be more comfortable to wear when I was traveling in uniform rather than wearing my duty belt. I could just tack on when I get out of the car.

    Aftermarket 1911 mags

    These are my edc holsters. The clip holster is 45 years old. I got it when my Lt. told me he didn't want to see my 1911 stuck in my waistband without a holster ever again. A rookie doesn't mess with the Lt. The other is a Tagua. It conceals well even under just a shirt. Both are very...

    Aftermarket 1911 mags

    Harrison makes a really nice u'notch rear sight that fits the milspec rear sight slot. They also have a corresponding stake in front sight if your 1911 has such.

    Aftermarket 1911 mags

    I like the MecGar because they don't have a spacer bar on the back side of the mag, the front is slotted to keep the rounds in proper position. Plus they hold ten rounds. Plus they have a much better price than the others. I bought six if them for my Sprinfield Ronin lightweight and they have...

    Spike hunt 1-24-2025

    I was on a lease many years ago where the first few years we shot nothing but 2 1/2 or older spikes and does. I shot a lot of spikes over the years. I can attest to the fact there are no better tasting deer than a spike from south Texas. Bon apetite!

    Home Insurance

    Insurance is regulated by state government and the insurance biz has a powerful lobby. I think federal regulation of insurance would create an additional bureaucratic monster.

    Home Insurance

    Heck, I believe our devices listen to our conversations. I can just talk about something and the next thing the product is showing up on facebook or in spam.

    Texas AG Paxton has filed suit against Allstate for planting tracking software on customer's cell phones and then collecting and selling the data collected to other insurance companies, which is a violation of state statute.

    Home Insurance

    At least you received a renew notice. A number of companies are dropping policies in areas that cost them in claims. I would imagine that a good bit of California won't be insurable going forward.

    .243 85 grain Partition

    Currently one of my 243s is loaded up with 90gr Accubonds. I looked back over my deeds with the 243 and I think I've only killed deer with the 100gr Corelokt, factory, and the 100gr Sierra Game King.

    Ramshot Grand 270 Win

    Grand and H1000 are next to each other on the burn chart. The difference is I can get enough Grand into a 270 win case to approach max load. You can't get close with H1000.

    Effects of Temperature and Elevation

    My load work up and sighting is generally done at around 50' of elevation and from 80-100 deg f. I could use up more brain cells than I can afford to give up worrying about the difference out to 400 yds when I'm hunting most anywhere else, but I still do. I set my drop tables at 5000' of...

    ***UPDATE....Calling any Winchester expert...

    What cartridge is the rifle you are wanting to convert. You'll likely need a different magazine box and a follower spring in addition to the trigger guard assembly.
