Cheaperthandirt.com sucks
Posted 10 years agoSooooo....
If any of you have heard of the recent talk of banning M855/SS109 ammo (5.56 'green tip'), I'm sure you are already mad about the ATF contemplating banning a common ammo.
Buuuttttt.....
Cheaperthandirt.com decided to once again show their shady colors and gouge their prices for 5.56.
One 900 round box is $840.
EIGHT HUNDERED AND FORTY DOLLARS
It is usually less than half that.
This is the same website who saw Sandy Hook and the ammo panic as a way to jack Magpul PMAG prices up to $60 (usually about $15)
I've also heard complaints about the quality of some of their gear.
Not to mention after Sandy Hook, they stopped selling firearms for awhile.
I also remember browsing many sites for ammo and mags for my Hi Power and cheaperthandirt had EXPENSIVE shipping for the few items I was getting.
While I usually try to buy from a company for their product (in the knife and gear community, there are some total douches and assholes who make outstanding stuff), I can say that they will not be getting any money from me.
They have showed that they are more worried about money and not about the firearms community.
Their crappy business doesn't deserve the firearms community's support.

Latest pistol brace talk
Posted 11 years agoSo as many of you know, there are aftermarket arm braces for AK and AR pistols.
These braces are made to strap to your arm and give you more control over the firearm.
However, after an open letter to the ATF, the ATF said that shouldering the brace, like a makeshift stock, does not violate any laws.
After this, the market for the braces exploded.
While it is not as good as a stock, many find it alright for a pseudo stock.
Wellllll...
Last week, someone wrote an open letter to the ATF, (an personally, I think this guy is an asshat for asking this) asking if they could build an SBR (Short Barreled Rifle) and use a brace for a stock.
The ATF changed their mind and said that now shouldering the braces are wrong.
First off, why the hell would you ask a question like that? What good did you think would come of it?
And second, did the ATF just tell us how not to HOLD our firearms?
So what many peeps boil it down to in a nutshell, (and you know the ATF hasn't given a straight answer, yet), is that it is perfectly ok to shoot it on your arm, but if you move the firearm a few inches upwards and back, to your shoulder, you have committed a crime.
I think the whole SBR and pistol ARs and AKs ruling is bullshit to begin with, so their new talk of telling us how not to hold our firearms is major bullshit.
Imma kinda split off a lil bit here to talk about somethin along the lines of this.
While watching a recent video posted by Gunwebsites on youtube, he talked with ATF representatives at SHOT Show, last week, and talked to them about the new brace ruling. He held a livestream to discuss it, and in the video, he said the ATF reps told him that if he had a question, he had to write or send an email to their office (guess they gotta have paper copies). In this part, he said that the rep he was talking to said that many people would send videos of people on youtube shouldering the braces and asking or TELLING that they were doing it wrong.
-WARNING: mature language incoming-
Ok, so pretty much, some 'politically correct' asswipes that call themselves gun owners were narking on other law abiding gun owners for something that they perceive as wrong. They were pretty much running to Big Daddy ATF and saying 'ooh ooh, look, he's doing something wrong!'
They were doing nothing wrong, and I have no qualms against those who legitimately sent the videos asking if that position was ok, but for those who sent them in to tattle-tale on others for doing nothing wrong, I say FUCK YOU! Is our gun community not 'correct' or 'proper' enough' for your little stuck up shit head? Fuck, you remind me of the skeet shooting and tactical cliques.
-tangent over-
So anyways, what do you think of the recent brace ruling.
If you have the time and the interest, I highly suggest watching Gunwebsites livestream video of discussing it.

The new Taurus Curve, a .380 that forms to your body
Posted 11 years agoOk, lemme start off by sayin I'm pretty sorry about not posting anything for like 2 months.
Rough shit happened and had to get stuff done.
BUT ANYWAYS! :D
Taurus recently unveiled their newest product (well, I think they announced it at SHOT Show, but just fully unveiled it).
Supposedly, this handgun will revolutionize the concealed carry market.
What is it?
The Taurus Curve.
A .380 caliber handgun that sports some rather unique features for a carry gun.
First off (you may want to google it, cuz it's hard to describe it), the grip is curve to the left.
Yes, curved. Like the curve of your body.
Also, the slide and frame are very rounded off. The barrel and slide look rather odd rounded to a smooth curve.
And if that wasn't odd, the gun comes from the factory with a light and laser built in in front of the trigger.
Yes, built in.
It also has an optional pocket/belt/waist clip and slide serrations that look aggressive as fuq. (lotsa grip for racking the slide)
The magazine holds 6 rounds, plus one in the chamber.
The point of this gun is to be a comfortable carry gun that most people can afford and it brings the most practical features stock.
Which at an MSRP of $400 (I think), that sounds reasonable.
All the features and options of this gun are geared toward the concealed carry market.
Which IMO, I think this gun definitely hits a mark.
Even though it is only in .380 and holds 6 in the mag (c'mon, the damn thing is tiny), this gun is actually impressive.
Think about it, how many other guns out there sport this many features and are made to fit to your body, and cost a reasonably low price?
Some many dislike Taurus, but I think they do pretty well for cheaper priced firearms.
Honestly, I like this gun. A lot.
At first I dismissed it as a gimmick or another poor attempt at a new carry gun concept, but this actually has potential.
The biggest drawback is the lack of sights. None.
Besides the laser, this gun has no sights.
BUT, then again the reason it doesn't have sights is because the gun is made to fit to your body and be easy to draw and snag free. (hence, the rounded off and curved design)
So it really goes both ways there.
I hope they offer a model with sights, because this gun really calls my name.
I would go into the .380 caliber and all that jazz, but I'll save the .380/.380 +P/9mm debate for another journal. :)

The Heizer pocket AR?! A 5.56 DERRINGER?!
Posted 11 years agoMany of you have heard of the DoubleTap derringer.
This little gun made by Heizer Defense is a very thin, two barrel derringer made in .45 ACP or 9mm.
While very small and neato, it's high price tag and almost obsolete qualities (it is advertised for the concealed carry market) have made many haters and people who discount it (raises paw).
Last year, the same company released video and press of a new product.
The Pocket Shotgun. A single barrel .410 derringer, that can also shoot .45 long colt.
It is actually a neat little gun and I wouldn't mind having one for novelties sake.
So how much do you expect to pay for this single shot .410 with 3 1/4 in barrel? $125 is max? Hmm, but keep in mind it is a high tech manufacturing company...
$150 max you say?
Try $380.
Yes, you heard me THREE HUNDRED EIGHTY FAAKIN DOLLARS FOR THIS THING.
By now you are thinkin "Is this company insane?!"
Well, yes, they are.
At the 2014 NRA Show, Heizer debuted it's new product in the line of "most powerful small guns in the world."
The PAR1. The Pocket AR.
A 5.56 single shot derringer with what looks like a 3.75in barrel.
And guess what retail price is? $449...
Shooting a 5.56 from a barrel that short will not only be an absolute disgrace to the cartridges ballistics (hardly any powder burn from that short barrel), but you would be far better off with a .22 magnum derringer for half the price.
This gun is a solution to a problem that never even existed.
Furthermore, it begs the question, WHY???
Why make such a product and sell it for a stupidly high price?
Oh I know why, cause there is so many AR owners out there who think "Eye shooot thas bullit in ma rafle, thas pestil mus be jes as gud."
Yes, I am saying that if you pay full price for this thing, you probably talk like that.
So yes, Heizer is a company that has completely lost their minds.

Large caliber revolvers and handguns
Posted 11 years agoSo, there is a recent somewhat-hype of revolvers and handguns chambered for large bore rounds.
Your first thought is probably the .500 Smith and Wesson.
Well, believe it or not, there is bigger than that out there.
Like the .475 and .500 Linebaugh (most powerful handgun caliber as far as I know), the .600 Nitro Express, and the .45-70 BFR (Big Frame Revolver).
It's not just revolvers, though. Many other semi-autos and single shot handguns are chambered for these monster cartridges.
Right now, you're probably thinking of the Desert Eagle in .50 Action Express. That is probably the most well known large caliber handgun.
Not too long ago at a local gun shop, I was digging through a box of random barrels and parts.
I came across a Thompson Center Contender (single shot handgun mostly chambered in rifle calibers) barrel chambered for .460 S&W.
(also came across a HORRIBLE mall ninja job on a 1887 trench gun barrel, but that's another story)
The Contender barrel looked as if it had been spray painted a dull pinkish color and has been battered. I think they wanted somethin like $350 for it.
(I'll admit, if it was a little cheaper [like $150+ cheaper] I would buy that damn thing and take off that ugly paint)
This, as well as the recent "emergency kit" by Smith and Wesson, a kit containing emergency food, water, and a SNUB NOSED .500 S&W with orange grips, got me thinkin....
What is with the hype of all these big ass handguns?
Is it the "manly" appeal, or is it peeps like me who get a rush (of probably sensory overload X3) when firing massive firearms?
I'm not berating or agreeing with the hype, heck, I would've bought that Contender barrel if it was cheaper, but I wonder what makes the hype of them so prevalent?

Sporterizing military surplus guns
Posted 11 years agoSo as with any firearms enthusiast, I love milsurp guns.
They're cheap, durable, and ammo is usually inexpensive.
But one thing I've noticed is that because they are inexpensive, many peeps get one and then proceed to "sporterize" it.
No problem with making it a little more useful to your needs for hunting or target shooting, like adding a scope or better sights.
But when people proceed to slap tri rails on a Mosin (IMO mosin rails should be illegal) or cut down an Arisaka's stock and barrel, that is taking it too far.
I think that while these guns should be fired and used like any other well built gun, they should also be treated with a form a respect.
Many of us have seen hacked up and "bubba'd" guns that almost scream "HELP ME!"
Actually, for those following my regular FA, my bullpup SKS build was done from a "bubba'd" Yugo SKS.
So while this journal was kinda short and maybe confusing to follow, I wanna hear feedback from yall about yall's opinion.
So down there, proceed to call me an asshole for disagreeing with you slapping a red dot and a foregrip on your K31 or state that you think the guy who painted a K98 like rainbow dash should be thrown in Gitmo.
Let's hear it!

Kel-Tec products (IM BACK!)
Posted 11 years agoSo before I get into this journal, IM BACK!
My life has settled down a little so I can now write some more articles on here.
Anyways...
Kel-Tec...
Recently famous for their KSG bullpup shotgun, which has ran into short supply and is coveted by people (*cough* mallninjers XD) everywhere.
Kel-Tec is know for making affordable firearms with radical designs.
They have accumulated a swarm of lovers and haters, alike.
Here is what I personally think of Kel-Tec:
Awesome ideas, bad execution. Their QC is shit.
I think they have some amazing ideas and designs, but their quality control of their products is shoddy to say the least.
Recently I got to fire a Sub-2000, which only kindled my thirst for one even more.
I also like their PMR-30 handgun. It's a .22 magnum semi auto that holds 30 rounds in the magazine.
Their RFB bullpup .308 has potential to rock the bullpup world (they also have new models like it in the works).
But they need to step up their QC. I understand their stuff is in short demand because they cannot make products fast enough, but I think quality beats quantity.

Hardest/easiest firearm to clean/maintenance
Posted 11 years agoSo I just finished cleaning my SAR Arms PASP 12 gauge.
The actual cleaning was a horror, but that's a different story and not because of the design.
This thing is a solid, well shooting shotgun for cheap, and is easy to disassemble.
But reassembly...
So I got an idea.
What do you think is the easiest and hardest firearms to clean or maintain.
For easiest, I vote any break action shotgun. Simple as can be.
For hardest, definitely the Ruger MKII or MKIII .22 pistols.
Ruger is my favorite brand and the MK series is one of the best .22 handguns out there, but gettin inside of one is AAGGHHHH!
I once had to fix one for a family member and what was intended to be a quick strip and fix turned into nightmare.

Clear handgun grips
Posted 11 years agoOk, so here is another informative journal!
In WWII, some GI Joes (our troops, not the action figures, those didn't see service till Nam) would cut pieces off the plexiglass canopies of downed aircraft and shape these pieces into 1911 grips. These were known as "sweetheart" grips, because on the right side, you kept a pic of your gal back home, and on the left side,you left it clear so you could see your magazine and how many rounds you had left.
A rather novel idea, is it not?
Well, some modern day manufacturers (mostly custom makers) still make these grips for a variety of handguns.
The appeal of them is obvious, you can see your mag (some peeps cut the sides of their mags to see cartridges easier), and it looks neat being able to see the innards of the gun.
However, as with any clear plastic or acrylic, scratches show up easily.
But I think that it would be worth lookin into having a set made for one of your pieces.

Inactivity lately
Posted 11 years agoWell, like my last journal on why there isn't much activity, my personal life is getting pretty rough lately.
The icon contest is put on the backburner for a lil bit.
But I still hope to write a few informative journals.
Sorry yall for the lack of activity.

Training or shooting with your "off" hand (bad hand)
Posted 11 years agoRecently, TheYankeeMarshal, a prominent gun enthusiast on youtube posted a video about shooting with your off hand.
Later that day, I tried it at the range.
Shooting with my left hand was like trying to jam a steel jar of peanut butter into the end of a water hose.
Well about three days ago, I broke my right hand.
So my main tool in life has only three usable fingers now.
So this reminded me of the video and how practicing with your bad hand is a good idea.
Because maybe you may have to use that bad hand one day, because your other hand is broke or bandaged or 2 feet deep into a dragon's chest.

Sorry about not many updates, hopefully somethin tomorrow!
Posted 11 years agoYeah, I've been pretty busy and stressin lately, so I haven't updated much here.
Work, school, bills, lack of sleep, no money, not much food, etc. have been keepin me busy.
I hope to have somethin done tomorrow.
I broke my hand last night and think it gave me an idea for a journal.

Exact deadline has not been determined yet, but I will most likely come up with it in a couple days.
But in the meantime, ideas and brainstorming is welcome!

Open carry or concealed carry encounters or stories
Posted 11 years agoSo the other day I open carried for the first time. (this is
jphoenix98 btw)
Overall, it was uneventful and surprisingly no one noticed.
Only reactions I got was one guy's weird look and another guy (who I think was an addict) asking me if I was law enforcement and then telling me about his felony and time in prison (okkkk???).
I also open carried to the range the other day, which was also uneventful (especially at the range), except one guy asking me what I had, so I let him shoot off a few rounds and he let me try his Kel Tec Sub 2000.
So I know some of you out there carry, either concealed or open or both.
Do you have any interesting or rather weird encounters or reactions from others while carrying?
ALSO
I just noticed this page has finally hit 50 watchers.
As promised, I will soon start a logo contest for this page.
I'll keep you posted.

Only reactions I got was one guy's weird look and another guy (who I think was an addict) asking me if I was law enforcement and then telling me about his felony and time in prison (okkkk???).
I also open carried to the range the other day, which was also uneventful (especially at the range), except one guy asking me what I had, so I let him shoot off a few rounds and he let me try his Kel Tec Sub 2000.
So I know some of you out there carry, either concealed or open or both.
Do you have any interesting or rather weird encounters or reactions from others while carrying?

I just noticed this page has finally hit 50 watchers.
As promised, I will soon start a logo contest for this page.
I'll keep you posted.
.357 or .38+P in small revolvers
Posted 11 years agoWith the recent trend of small conceal carry revolvers hitting the market, such as the Ruger LCR and Smith and Wesson J frame revolvers, there comes a slight issue in ammunition and caliber choice.
Ok, I really can't continue without explaining this: for those who do not know, .38 special will fit and fire in .357 magnum chambered firearms, but not vice versa. The reason is because both are actually .357 in diameter (.38 special was called 38 because it was thought to sound bigger and better). .357 mag was actually created from .38 special, but it is a much higher pressure round and has a longer case length than .38.
Anyways, most of these small revolvers come in .38 special and .357 magnum. Most modern .38s can safely shoot .38 +P ammo. +P ammo is a special type of ammo that is loaded hotter and produces better ballistics than standard ammo, however it creates much higher pressures than normal ammo and cannot be used in some guns (mostly older ones).
So here is what I am getting to: these small revolvers typically have small barrels, maybe 3 inches at most. .357 mag reaches peak performance with a 6 inch barrel, anything below affects performance almost drastically. .38 special does fine in these guns, with less noise and recoil than the .357. Of course, .357 does give a little better performance, even out of these little barrels. But, that's where .38 +P comes into play. With .38 +P you can get almost the same performance from a .38 in this size as a .357 in this size or maybe a little bigger.
Personally, I think that the best option for small revolvers is .38 special with +P ammuniton. I think .357 mag in such a small gun isn't really accomplishing much other than a huge fireball and a hurting on your wallet. But I don't dislike .357, hell no, it's my favorite pistol caliber. I just think that a .357 shouldn't be used in small guns, it greatly degrades the power and performance of the awesome round, while .38 can fill the role very nicely.
So what do yall think?
Do you think .38 is better or .357 mag in small revolvers?

Happy memorial day (and sorry for absence)
Posted 11 years agoWell today is the day we honor those who fought for our country!
Let's remember those in our lives or that we know who answered the call of duty.
Also, I have not been updating the page because I have been in the process of moving.
Now that I am all caught up, I will up update this page more often.

Carrying, concealed and open
Posted 11 years agoEspecially in the United States, there is much talk over citizens openly or concealed carrying firearms.
Many states allow citizens to openly carry a firearm without a permit of any type.
Five US states even allow concealed carry without a permit.
However, most states require a permit for CCW (concealed carry weapons).
This permit is obtained after submitting a form, paying a set amount, undergoing a background check, and your form being approved.
This can take almost 100 days. Most states also have an age limit of at least 21 to CCW, as well.
There is debate even in the gun community of open carry vs concealed carry.
Let's be honest, concealed carry is definitely much better than open carry.
That way, no one know you have a firearm (peeps tend to get freaked out), a criminal will not notice you are armed and attempt to attack you first in a hostile scenario, and police officers won't spend half their day harassing you over why you are running errands with an XDS .45 on your hip.
But open carry is usually allowed with no permit and at a lower age (in my state of MS, you can OC at 18).
Open carry is also abused by gun owners, as well.
Some try to support their rights by walking down the road or in a public place with an AR on their back or somethin like that.
Really dude, I mean I support gun rights as much as anyone else, but I think we can all agree that doing somethin like that is simply causing public unrest and making gun owners look like crazy fools.
Recently, there has been an open carry campaign launched called Every 2nd Counts. On the 2nd of each month, you are encouraged to open carry to raise awareness for gun rights.
I am usually not a fan of open carrying, but I am considering doing it for this.
So do you guys CC or OC any?

Big caliber rifles & 1000 yard guns
Posted 11 years agoOk, first off, sorry about the inactivity.
Now that the stress of finals is over, I have more free time.
So here is today's journal.
One of the most recent hypes in firearms is large caliber rifles and rifles made to shoot 1000 yards.
While I won't doubt that hitting a target at 1000 yards is completely satisfying, some don't buy into the hype.
Most notable of this hype is the big ol American .50 BMG.
Possibly made most famous by the military, hollywood, and video games, the .50 caliber is a half inch, approx 650-750 grain projectile.
Some are even packed full of sweet explody incendiary goodness (there is other incendiaries for other calibers, but you can get a lot into a .50 bullet).
But at approx $1500 for the cheapest rifle (which cheap .50s are a entirely new journal for the future) and $4-$12 a cartridge, many cannot afford such.
Many other large caliber rifles are just as expensive, for example, the .416 Barrett and the .338 Lapua.
Both are awesome long range rounds, but like the .50, they ain't cheap.
It is best to reload ammo for these, to save money and to make optimal rounds for your tastes.
As far as 1000 yard guns go, all of these are main contenders, but some argue that even the .308 (7.62x51) is a 1000 yard round.
Sure you would be aiming very high and the bullet would barely be scootin by the time it reached the target, but it can do 1000 yards.
So I know some of you out there have large caliber guns and thoroughly enjoy shooting them (I describe shootin a .50 as concentrated orgasm).
What do yall think about the big caliber hype and do you have one of these puppies?
Do you think it is something that would or should fade away or will it grow stronger as the shooting market strives to imitate the latest and greatest military hardware?

BULLPUPS!!! Love em or hate em!
Posted 11 years agoSo everyday I dream about that day (which will be next month!) when I get my first bullpup!
Bullpups are firearms with the action (bolt, magazine, etc.) behind the trigger group.
This makes the gun shorter and more well balanced, while still performing the same as a full sized firearm.
Some famous examples include, the Steyr AUG, the FN FS2000, the TAR-21 (or the Tavor on the civvie market), the SVU Druganov, the L85/SA80, the FN P90, and the FAMAS F1.
These neat guns have sparked fans and haters since their emergence around the 1970s (really the design comes from about the 1940s, but it didn't become noticeable until about the 70s).
Some love them, some hate them.
One issue among them is loading, as the magazine is closer to the shooter's body and some require you to reach under or over the gun to operate the bolt.
Another issue is trigger linkage. Some have less than satisfactory triggers, and unlike some others in the firearms community, I love to shoot fast. I do not want a trigger that I must release completely to reset after each shot.
With the popularity of these guns growing each year and new concepts being released to the market, many are making strides, while some are lacking *cough* kel-tec *cough* :P
So do you guys like pups?
If you own any or have experience with them, which is your fav?

The importance of recording serial numbers and descriptions
Posted 11 years agoOk, I am a hypocrite.
I realize that now, but I have corrected my errors. X3
You'll find out in a sec.
Alright, let's say your home is broken into (knock on wood!) and the burglars bust open your gun safe or find your hidden gun shelf bookcase, or whatever. You're precious firearms are gone. You fall into a weeping pile of mess on the living room floor. It is almost as if you lost a child.
BUT WAIT!
You remembered you keep hidden a few copies of your firearm's serial numbers, descriptions of each, paperwork, bill of sales, and photos of each!
You turn these into the police and they eventually find and return your babies back into your arms.
You promptly bear hug the crap outta them and tuck them in bed that night.
Ok, anyways, the point of that is this:
It is extremely important to record the serial numbers of your guns, a detailed description of each (scopes, locations of paint wear/patina, color, etc.), any paperwork from FFL purchases, as well as bill of sales from private sales, and photos of your guns. Make multiple copies of these and keep them tucked away safely.
In the horrible chance your home is broken into, you have hope of finding your firearms.
Really, this should also be done with all valuable possessions, such as TVs and computers, but here we are just talkin about guns.
If you do not have this info, there is a very little chance you will get your guns back.
It's like all or nothin.
Anyways, I have always thought this was a good idea, but never did it until tonight (mostly because I have been living in a college dorm and my firearms are at my parent's, but next month I will have my own place).
I really can't stress how important it is to record info on your firearms.
It could one day help you find them again.

Do you prefer traditional firearms, modern, or both?
Posted 11 years agoWith the new age of firearms, it seems most guns nowadays look like a piece of industrial equipment with more rails than a train track.
But then we have those older beauties.
The wood stocks, the stainless barrels, the classic bolt actions, the recoil operated semi auto action, etc.
Most of us like a mix of both modern and traditional arms.
So do you guys prefer modern, traditional, or a lil of both.

Scout rifles and scout style scopes
Posted 11 years agoIn the early 1980s, renowned and expert gunsmith and firearms expert Jeff Cooper designed and promoted the concept of a general purpose "scout rifle." According to his specifications, the rifle must be bolt action, 6.6-7.7 lbs unloaded, overall length of 1 meter or less, forward mounted telescoping sight of low magnification (scout style scopes), ghost ring style back up sights, a "ching" sling, must be chambered in .308 (most common) or 7mm-08 (also can be in .243 with a 22" barrel, and there was even a "Lion Scout" in .350 Rem Mag), and should be able to shoot 4" (2 minutes of angle) at 200 yards.
The design has not become very popular, but has made it's appearance in the firearms community.
There was issue with the recoil of the .308 out of the shorter barrel of the scout rifle, so Cooper approved the 7mm-08 for use in the scout rifle.
The most quintessential scout rifle would be the recognizable Steyr Scout.
Cooper worked with Steyr to perfect the rifle and now it is know for its odd appearance, integral bipod, forward mounted scope, and spare mag holder. This rifle was even chambered in .376 Steyr, known as the "Dragon Scout" (watch out you reptile fuzzies!).
Savage, Ruger, and Springfield have all also released their versions of the scout design, with Ruger's Gunsite Sight beginning to becoming popular in recent years.
The most distinct feature of the scout rifle is the forward mounted scope.
On scout rifles (and now even on many guns), a low magnification, long eye relief scope is mounted just forward of the receiver (I personally love this design).
The scout rifle is a quite interesting design, made for an all round utility gun.
It's popularity has slightly rose in recent years, but it still remains not too popular.
Hopefully this design will take off more, with more companies releasing guns based on the scout design.
What do you guys think about the scout rifle and the scout scopes?

Do you like steel or aluminum cased ammo?
Posted 11 years agoOk, many cheap or surplus ammos are steel or aluminum cased.
These aren't meant to be reloaded, just fired.
They are pretty cheap compared to brass cased ammo, but some people find issue with these ammos.
They seem to work better in "cheaper" guns with looser chamber tolerances.
I personally haven't found issue with steel 7.62x39 or aluminum .357 (actually found more issue with lacquered cases, steel or brass).
Do you have any issues with this ammo, or do you happily feed your guns with it for cheap?

The Taurus Judge: self defense miracle or novelty range toy?
Posted 11 years agoBack in 2010, Taurus produced a unique revolver known as the Taurus Judge.
It is a revolver chambered for both .410 shotshells and .45LC.
In it's initial release, many members of the firearms community scoffed at it, calling it a novelty.
Back in the day, small company MIL produced a similar revolver known as the Thunder Five, which was not very popular and was pretty much a fun range toy.
But as we all know, the Judge exploded in popularity.
Now you can even buy ammo in packs of 6 .410 buckshot shells and 6 .45LC self defense rounds, specifically for the Judge.
But while many hail it as a close range self defense wonder, is that really the truth?
In order to keep from being an AOW (any other weapon, as per BATFE regs) shotgun, the Judge has rifling at the end of the barrel, also for accuracy with the .45 Long Colt ammo. This causes the .410 shot to spread out a little in a circle, combine that with the common short barrel of the gun, shot spreads very fast from this gun.
Still, many hail it as a novelty and excellent snake/varmit back up gun.
Because, let's look at it this way:
That little bit of rifling, and that short barrel ain't gonna get astounding accuracy and power from either .410 shells or .45LC rounds.
Now Taurus does make a bigger version that holds 6 shots instead of 5, and also sjhoots .454 Cassull.
This is the Taurus Raging Judge, which was initially revealed at SHOT Show to be a 28 gauge revolver (they were gonna try to revive the old 28 gauge shotshells).
But the ATF said it was an SBS (short barreled shotgun), so that was the fate of the the Raging Judge.
Rossi makes a carbine version called the Circuit Judge, which is actually a nice design and firearm (I hope to get one).
So what do yall think about the Judge?
Good self defense gun or another fun toy?
