    Yes, or to the point that they have to change tactics to focus on ammo conservation versus defeating the enemy.

    A very wise man. Another issue that I often have to show people in an apples to applies comparison(9mm vs .45) is just how much their performance and accuracy reduces with each shot fired in a...

    What the heck, I just ordered one. I love the 550, but the primer feeder sticking once it gets dirty from deprimed primers is the one weak point to it.

    Friends don't let friends carry .380s.........unless NOTHING else is available. Then, I would pick a deep penetrating, AFFORDABLE, FMJ/TMJ/HC round that I could shoot at least 200rds(minimum) a...

    Yeah, they are kinda like the H&K of old. There is a clue when their competition models come with multiple replacement slide stops in the box(already assuming lots of broken stops). I knew a guy in...

    I was into classic CZs in about 2004. By 2007 they were all sold off. I had a 75b, P-01, 97b, and 75b Shadow. All of them had problems which included parts breakages and wear issues. Maybe the...

    There's no real advantage until you add on the case feeder which is another couple of hundred dollars.

    Yeah, the the speed advantage isn't really there until you add the case feeder at the least which is another couple of hundred. Then you need a conversion kit for the case feeder if you want to go...

    I can't afford to shoot 600rds a week, so I am perfectly content with a 550 and the volume it gives me. The simplicity of it is nice, and caliber changes are a breeze between other handgun calibers...

    I tried out a P225A1. It's a bit easier to shoot and handle than the P239. I think a full 9mm/.357/.40 line of the new P225 would be interesting.....

    My tumbler is relatively small, but it will process 2000 9mm cases with the steel media per batch. Larger units will process much more than that at a time, along with more streamline methods of...

    I guess I am a perfectionist. The Frankford tumbler has a timer for 1,2,3 hours. Usually 1hr is good enough for handgun brass that is relatively fresh off the range and no tarnishing, and 2hrs for...

    No, the wax just keeps the brass from tarnishing and it stays looking new much longer(even after handling). It "might" help with making resizing brass a tad easier, but I haven't noticed.

    I have run almost nothing by DA/SA Sigs since about 2000. My DA pull from the holster is faster and more accurate than many. However, I am faster and more accurate with a lighter SA Sig P320...

    It think the biggest appeal for me to bump up to the 1050 would be that it has a primer pocket swager in the assembly line. At least half of the 9mm cases I get have primer crimps, and about half of...

    How fast do you estimate you are loading with that setup? I pretty much only load 9mm now days, and I am debating selling off my 550b at getting a 650 with case feeder to speed up my process.

    What he said.

    Handguns generate very little heat, and very little barrel friction compared to a rifle. Many of us will go through 200rds of rifle ammo in less than an hour in some trainings,...
