I just joined this forum; in fact I do not normally join forums or social media websites. I do however enjoy the ascetics and beauty of firearms along with the find craftsmanship of gunsmiths in addition to the joy of sport shooting and now reloading that I believe it was a must to join this forum. My father was a an Oldsmobile and Smith & Wesson man. He lived for a new black Oldsmobile automobile each model year and the collecting of Smith and Wesson firearms. It was a tragedy when most of his collection was stolen so I will never enjoy those wonderful early Smiths as he did. To compensate I collect a few old ones but now I can truly say while Glocks are nice nothing feels as good or shoots like my M&P 45. As a newbie to reloading I also seek all the advise on and sources for reloading supplies and tooling.
