Dang it.. i've seen him but i cant figure it out... guess what i will be doing at work tomorrow...

Anyone in Ohio thinking of making a trip to Texas any time soon ?

Any suggestions on how to find one?
I've tried google, but everything comes up with rifles in it. I'd love one like that, but dont want to spend the $$

I love the tiger stripped wood

I checked the firing pin, it's within spec. I wish I disassembled the bolt whilst I was out there....

Celt, I see a quote but no message...

Should i discard the dented rounds, or can i use them ?

I may have been too quick to rule out the usual cause for my stuff not working... my self... I disassembled and reassembled the bolt, trying to get the back of the firing pin to line up with the knob. It did just that. Firing pin depth looks good as well.

Ok. I'm out trying to shoot, but with no luck.
I pull the trigger, and nothing. I eject the round, and there is a small dent I. The back.
What's wrong?

Thanks!

.40 S&W is up there now.
It's a 500 round box, so i'm out. Dont want to spend that much in one go.

i went with USAC sales.
Ordered last night and got a tracking number this morning, so far so good !.

Fun to watch

Guess i will check it out.
