    Steyr m9a1 breakage

    from what I could see, nothing went through it, I wonder if the holes are just for manufacturing

    3566tsw pistol

    starline 9x23 is what I'm using atm. but UK means only a few people actually import stuff, half the shops then get supplied off those importers. starline don't have any more 356tsw, and even if they did, the uk importers don't seem interested in trying. UK brownells who drop ship stuff, won't...

    Finally... 16-4 4” - Patience is a virtue!

    I'll try loading up some and see what they do. As I can get 32l easier than h&r brass. Factory wise I have only tried 100 rounds of magtech, that's what was poor Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

    Finally... 16-4 4” - Patience is a virtue!

    I've also got a 4" 16-4, I didn't realise they were rarer than 6" Reading through all the above, I'm a bit surprised, my gun is a laser beam with 32h&r but it's all over the place with 32 long. I assumed that was down to the chambering. What brand of 32 long are people using? Or are they hand...

    I'm going to have to see if I can get another fun in 356tsw imported if one comes up. Doubt that's going to be cheap though. Now I just need to find more brass, place I bought some from before is quoting 3 months for more Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

    Steyr m9a1 breakage

    Hi. I have a Steyr m9a1, and had a part of the metal sub frame break off in the lower assy. It looks like the bottom of the recoil spring sits on top of it. It's this a major issue?? Is the gun still safe to use? It's literally hiding right at the front in the exploded diagram If there is...

    3566tsw pistol

    Well I got it at long last. Some issues at proof as there's no published data. So I eventually got them to proof it on 9mm data in the converted cases. As we know that oal is same, and it used same components. They were happy with this. So I got it delivered 2 weeks ago. Proof marks are very...

    3566tsw pistol

    Hi just an update to this, I have the permission from the police to buy it, but as suspected, the proofing is now the stumbling block. does anyone have any actual legit, manufacturer supplied, load data for this ammo? or even any leads on where to go to hunt the info out? I have sent emails...

    3566 limited

    proof reading FTW I think it should read 'higher and higher pressures' thank you! I'm in England. thanks again Bluedot, I'll see what I can do to reword that too. my plan is to use that brass, as per your previous suggestion, but I've had it on order for 4 months now, it keeps being rolled...

    3566 limited

    thank you basically in this country, if I want a gun like this, I have to justify why it could be of historic interest. This is what I have in my justification... Statement to support the application for a variation under section 7.3 pistol heritage scheme Since the introduction of practical...

    3566 limited

    hi, another post about this beautiful gun. still trying to get a feel for its history. From what I've seen so far on here, if I understand right, these were made for the shooting team to achieve major factor with minor capacity? mr Jinks was at that time team captain and had a hand in their...

    3566tsw pistol

    Thanks bluedot, that was a nice read. The English proof houses don't seem to be that bad. I'll call my dealer later next week to confirm, but I don't see it being anywhere near the same issue as him. I hope anyway. Very good point on that load data and a perfect example of never take what you...

    Thanks, but I can't have hollow point pistol ammo full stop, and it's not worth trying to import ammo to the UK of it were ball. I just need brass

    3566tsw pistol

    Honest answer is I don't know, BUT I have had a bp muzzle loader fitted with shotgun primer nipple's, proofed for nitro powder. I supplied the powder and ball. Then told them the charge I wanted to load and they proofed it at that. So I assume they did their test at a % of load above that. I...
