    Pistol caliber carbine

    I contacted Smith and Wesson in May of last year about a pistol caliber carbine built on the M&P platform. I suppose if enough requests are made someone may listen. Attached is the reply I received.

    DPMS Oracle

    I grabbed it yesterday just before they closed. Picked up ammo and a red dot for it also. Brought it home. Read the manual, watched a few videos and then stripped it down. Cleaned/lubed it and mounted the red dot. Now I just have to get to the range. Thank you all for your advice and...

    DPMS Oracle

    Thank you all for the input. I'm going to buy it today. I don't want to get into the work week and miss out on the sale price since they have a no rain check policy on firearms.

    DPMS Oracle

    I am looking for my first AR platform rifle and I see that Dunham’s has the DPMS Oracle 5.56 for $499. It is optics ready so I have to account for a sighting system. The main purpose for the rifle is to familiarize myself with the platform and home defense. The only accessory I plan on mounting...

    What powder are you searching for?

    Earlier this month I found an 8# jug of Unique online at Midsouth Shooters Supply. On the same order I ordered 8# of HS-6 and 2000 primers to dilute the hazmat fee.

    Pistol caliber carbine

    +1 on affordable & M&P mags. I've been holding off waiting for the Sub2000 to become available with the M&P mags. I'd be happy to wait a bit longer for a S&W.

    M&P 40 to 9mm conversion?

    The Storm Lake 40 S&W to 9mm conversion barrel for my M&P40c arrived yesterday from Midway. I put about 150 rounds through it today. 3 different 115gr hand loads and WWB 115gr RN. Flawless drop-in conversion. A 9mm factory barrel would reportedly do just as well ($65 S&W vs $165 SL:eek:), but I...

    9mm 124gr target load problem.........

    I was just searching the forums for 9mm OAL issues as you were posting this. In my 2 reloading books (Hornady 7 and Sierra 5) they list an OAL of 1.100 for 115gr RN. I've loaded a few hundred and haven't been pleased with the results. I opened a box of WWB 115gr RN today and they measure 1.160...

    M&P 40 to 9mm conversion?

    I just got notification from Midway that the Storm Lake 40 to 9mm conversion barrel for my M&P 40c is available. I should have it by Monday. My reason for wanting the 9mm was because I just started reloading 9mm and I like to test my work before I let someone else shoot it. It was more cost...

    Love the 686s - pic thread

    Not the most practical revolver in my modest collection, but absolutely my favorite. If my torso were long enough it would be my carry gun:D

    Hello from Michigan

    Hello. My name is Bill. I joined about a month ago and have been gleaning the forums for some top notch information on guns and hand loading. Thanks for a great site.
