Speaking of 1911 mags, any of you guys willing to part with some of your old/worn out 1911 mags? Been wanting to make some speed loaders for my .45ACP Ruger Blackhawk. My plans were to buy some "officer" 6 round mags cut down the spring and mod the feed lips to make them easier to use as SAA revolver speed loader. TBH I'd rather mod some worn out mags than brand new ones.

I know I don't have any worn out 'officer' mags, that one is still going strong. I'll poke around and see if I've got some 1911 ones that I've swapped springs & followers on and that didn't fix em. I'll PM you with the results. :tup:

You can always buy 10 dollar gun show mags... theyre worthless

Anyone need AR-10 mags? I've got two 20-rd(?) ones left over after my dad swapped his AR-10 for a bolt gun. One's metal and one's polymer.

Thanks! :tiphat:

True, but it's going to be awhile until the next gun show. :shakes head:
Hope this virus burns out soon.

:iagree:

My brother in law has one. :tup: Has a rotating firing pin.

I like the Wilson Combat mags for my 1911. :tup:

I do too. I started buying those when my old issue 45 mags started flaking out. I could fix some with new springs and followers, but I'm sure I have 3 or 4 that are just awful.

I have mags from just about everyone. I keep going back to the Wilson's.

I wonder how true this is going to be for some of us. :rolleyes: :bowrofl:

It won't cover the scope i want, let alone the rifle. :shakes head:

I know the feeling. Well a least you will be $1200 closer.

Actually, I have 3 scopes I'm thinking about selling. Might get off my butt an actually try to sell them. Keep forgetting I still have them.

One of the scopes that's on my radar.

That's what I said. :yum:

The background check just to buy ammo and additional ammo tax is unconstitutional.
This is the same Judge who ruled that California's ban on "high capacity" magazines was unconstitutional last year. :tup::tup::tup:

I just read the article. :tup:

I was thinking of buying a Dillon press the other day. Maybe Ill put it on hold and go panic buying some ammo :rofl2:

A Dillon is never a bad idea. :tup:

I hope you can find ammo, it's kinda like powder & primers right now, hard to come by. I'd jump on the web and see who can ship what to you. Good luck.

Midway has M855 green tip cans at a decent price. I think theyre legal here, but I better make sure.

I have an RCBS rock chucker and a Lee Progressive. The Lee is a pain in the *** to keep running smoothly. Wasted so much brass, primers, powder etc..not to mention alot of dies....I had given up trying and just use as a single press. :ugh2:

I have a Rock Chucker that I bought in the early 80's. It's still going strong. :tup:

I've got a Rock Chucker I bought in the early 80's, along with a Hornady Lock N Load. I've been using the RCBS more, so I can sit & watch TV while I prime cases. I like the LNL, it's just a pain in the backside to set up for each caliber. You almost have to have multiple powder measure plugs to make the switch between calibers easier. Part of the issue maybe that I've not spent as much time behind the LNL as I have behind the RCBS. Like they say, it's just practice. :p

Now I'm on Midway's website going over my wishlist....:tup:


$500 and I haven't gotten to powder, bullets & other stuff yet.... :icon14:

:rofl2:

I was changing out the grips on my 1911 yesterday. Had to tell myself I dont need to order new ones...

Don't get me started there.... I was an idiot and tossed out a single grip panel that was laser engraved with blind justice, because it cracked in half. Instead of keeping it and gluing it back together, it went in the trash. :owned: I figured at the time I'd be able to get another set.... HA!!! Not a chance. :icon14:

Lyman Mark 7 Revolution :yum: :yum: :yum:

:tup:

$2,900.00

:ugh2:

For priming the cases. I have 2 RCBS case primers. One set up for small primer, and the other for large primer.

And it can be yours for $149.99 per month... :rofl2:

I've been using the Lee Auto-prime... well, it's more semi-auto I suppose. I've worn out several of the arms that go between the thumb lever and the primer post...:eek:

I really need to find a better media than the green corn cob for cleaning cases. After about priming 500 rounds, my fingers are black... :ugh2:

I have 3 RCBS powder measures. A Little Dandy, and 2 Competition Powder Measures. The Little Dandy, I use for pistol. The 2 other measures are set-up for small rifle, and the other for large rifle.

For cleaning the cases. I've gone from the Lyman 1200 tumbler with corn cob, to walnut. To now using the Hornady Ultra Sonic.

Read about the new tumblers using stainless steel pins and soapy water for cleaning. It's got some nice reviews on it.

Lyman Mark 7 Evolution $2900 :tup:

Lyman Mark 7 Revolution $10,000 :eek::eek::eek:

:yum: :yum:

10 grand. You better be selling that ammo coming out of it.

I like the Lyman primer better. I think the RCBS was jamming up on me IIRC

I just use the Harbor freight tumbler with crushed walnut. Its pretty messy and I dont like having to clean the cases afterwards. Theyll jam my resizing die if I dont clean the dust off well. Might go with the pin tumbler
