    Sidearms & Scatterguns What is the Ultimate Combat Pistol? Make your case

    While I am a real fan of the 1911 & its my wife's favorite (CDP) I am old school - an old S&W wheelgun in a 357 or larger gets my approval - 44 & 45 are easy to shoot & make a grand statement, loaded with Keith SWC at reasonable velocities. My IDPA gun center in picture.

    Help with LRB bolt and Fulton receiver

    Those investment cast rec are very hard metal - have you considered something is clearly out of spec, my guess being the Fulton rec, I have never owned one nor understand why others would buy one when LRB / SEinc make better units for similar cost.
