    Anyone else have a 500ES?

    There was a .44 mag version too ... that's be the black-cased one.

    What happened to the .500 Special?

    One is a .454 Casull, the other is a .500 Magnum ;) I'm just "thinking of others" when I want a lighter load and a "special" casing to load them in. What I may end up doing is buying some of the Nickel plated brass for my stouter loads, and leaving the plain brass ones for lighter loads. Was...

    What happened to the .500 Special?

    That's usually the first reaction I get when I tell people that. Thing is I guess I got a lucky break. They're both into shooting, they're polar opposites in demeanor, and they were both informed of one another before anything went anywhere fast. Full disclosure seems to work wonders when you...

    What happened to the .500 Special?

    Worst-case scenario, that's what I'll be relegated to. I just feel a bit strange shaving 0.33" off of fairly pricey brass and still have the wrong head-stamping on them :(

    What happened to the .500 Special?

    Last Tuesday, my "Quest for the Big" ended with the M500-4 Backpacker. The saying "A watched pot never boils" could never be so true - I had ordered it 8 days prior to the pickup date. I was never so excited to get it out to the range, but the ammo didn't arrive until Friday. In my haste, the...

    Holster Review: The Treadstone from Overwatch Holsters

    I may have to wait for the LARX-3 then ;)

    Don Hume holster question

    Yeah I saw your first reply and thought "Hmm... must be a delay from my 2nd post." :p I feel like I'd prefer appendix-carry which is why the Wright looks good to me. I believe I'll be putting in an order for it in the next few days and waiting the 8-10 weeks (good things are worth the wait)...

    Don Hume holster question

    I may have found an alternative - anyone here use the Wright Leather Works Cruiser-Tuck? There appears to be an 8-10 week lead-time on stuff over there :o

    Don Hume holster question

    I've just about finished dressing up the 40 Shield as you're about to see below - was hoping someone might share a little insight on personal experience with Dom Hume holsters for Shields. I'm aware they don't make a "Shield-specific" 715 IWB holster (which is quite a shame) - but the PPS model...

    new shield

    I've got that model Uplula too - works just fine on my "Smith and Walther" PPK :p

    LG-489's on the cheap!

    Thought I'd share a little joy I fell in to tonight. Been watching the listings for Crimson Trace LG-489's for about 2 weeks and suddenly tonight, "add to cart to see price" and to my surprise, it was 50 bucks less than most retail listings... Amazon.com : Crimson Trace LG-489 Laser-Guard for...

    Larger magazine for 9mm Shield?

    I currently carry the 7 rounder with the 6 rounder in a pouch on my right hip. (on a .40 Shield) I've debated about longer magazine options for a while as well, and the only real use I could think of for one (as a male) is just to mess around on the range without having to reload as often...

    new shield

    As other's have said, get the Uplula magazine reloader - it makes life so much easier on reloads - especially if you're going to send 100-200 downrange in a session (saves your thumbs!). Other than that, the recoil spring break-in generally takes about 2-300 rounds and becomes a lot more...

    NIB w/missing sear lever!

    When I first started reading the thread I had to wonder if you just bought one that didn't have the magazine disconnect (I read somewhere they made both types, one with, and one without it). Easiest way would have been to show the right side of the gun if it had the Warning message below the...

    Under $50 IWB Shield Holster?

    Someone here is using a Don Hume M715-M for a Walther PPS and says it fits like a glove. If it'll clear the Crimson Trace under-barrel, laser, I'll definitely be getting one. Price - $33.60 :o
