Greetings! I am soon planning on replacing some handgun and rifle sights. To the best of my recollection, there is supposed to be a unique direction for removal and installation, but I forget which way. In order to remove a dovetailed sight (when looking from the breech) is the sight...

I am acquiring a bunch of the Norma 9mm 65gr frangible bullets for a stage of an indoor pistol match that mandates the use of frangible bullets. Because I could be as little as 6 weeks post-op from back surgery, I'm using my 380 instead of a 9mm Luger in order to minimize back rock from recoil...

Greetings! I have been in the work force for the better part of 50 years, and I've never had dealings with Workman's Compensation, until now. Please excuse my dumb question and the ignorance it highlights. Does Workman's Compensation actually compensate time lost from working while healing...

Greetings! Has anyone here purchased a program car through Enterprise Car sales? With my 2 teens heading off to college this fall, and normal activities, I think I have to become a 2 car family. Sadly (or maybe fortunately), a new car isn't in the cards. Has anyone here purchased a used...

Greetings! I don't know exactly why, but I'm a fan of the 380 cartridge and many of the pistols that fire it. Perhaps it's a combination of my age, my disabilities, and my ability to place effective shots within usual self-defense ranges. I currently own a G42, a Sig P365-380, and a Mauser HSc...

Yesterday, I drove an elementary school to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. After I was loaded and waiting for an opportunity to pull out of the pickup line, I was sideswiped by another school bus in what amounted to a hit-and-run accident. I called 911 moments after the impact, and at 20...

Greetings! Back when Lehigh Defense was manufacturing the Extreme Defense and Extreme Penetrator ammo, you were able to purchase the loose fluted bullets at an attractive price. Does anyone know if these bullets are still available for reloading, and where you can get them? As always...

Greetings! I have a minor dilemma. I inadvertently received a level 2 holster for my P365. I personally can't visualize carrying a CCW pistol in a level 2. I know that most of the competitions that I enter don't allow holsters with a retention device. After experiencing the Shoot House at Sig...

Greetings! I have a quick question about the LCI on the slide of a California compliant Shield Plus (or any other state that requires an LCI). When a round is in the chamber, does the LCI interfere with the sight picture? As always, thanks in advance for your help!

Greetings! I was wondering, can a 3.1" California compliant Shield Plus barrel and slide fit on any S&W Shield Plus receiver without requiring any modifications? Looking to make my slightly older Shield Plus PC 4" a little more versatile. As always, thanks in advance for your help!

Greetings! I am about fed up with the high tech electronics in my GM truck, and on the verge of trading it in. I have a Chevy silverado half ton 4x4 that I love, but the Onstar system that I rely on is on the fritz again. This vehicle was purchased new in November of '22. In November of '23...

Greetings! Might anyone here have a later model GM vehicle that has had issues with the communications module? I have had my Chevy 2022 (refresh) for almost 3.5 years, and the second module has failed. The original module lasted about 23 months, and the replacement module barely lasted 12...

We frequently see a question in this forum along the lines of, "do you carry with a round chambered "? Everyone has their opinion, and I don't fault their opinion. However, I have to wonder how respondents have trained which have led to this opinion. Hence, I've put together this survey...

Greetings! Perhaps I'm stuck in the 1970s when banks paid reasonable interest, but ... This morning, I checked the savings account that I recently opened with Wells Fargo, and I was in a state of shock! My 30 day deposit of $1000 garnered the grand sum of $0.01 in interest! Can anyone...

Greetings! I have acquired an older SDB die that is exclusively for the 38 Special (#20102). Yet Dillon is currently listing a 38 Special/357 Magnum die (#20240). The 38 Special only die appears to have been dropped. What is the actual difference between the two dies? I would imagine that...

I am contemplating putting a Novak sight on my Glock 30 Gen 4 because of the ability to adjust the sight . My question is, how long can you expect the tritium vials to work? As always, thanks in advance for your help!

A friend gave me his Dillon Rt1500 since he has upgraded to a Gracie trimmer. Looking at the dies for the Rt1500, they seem a bit limited, since they are a combination sizing die and trim die. Is anyone aware of anyone that might make a trim die that doesn't incorporate a sizing die so a...

I apologize in advance if this question has been asked before, the search feature is not working. I realize that the 5.7x28 round was developed for the P90 as a personal defense weapon/round. I'm trying to visualize how effective this round would be as personal defense round: small diameter...

Greetings! As many of you are aware, it is becoming increasingly difficult to locate Alliant Unique powder, which is a hallmark for "Skeeter Loads". Honestly, I'm not all that familiar, or comfortable, using burn rate charts, so I could use a little help. What is a currently available...

Greetings! Will a holster designed for an M&P 2.0 fit a Shield Plus, provided barrel lengths are equal? As always, thanks in advance for your help!
