    Sidearms & Scatterguns cant make up my mind glock or 1911

    Re: cant make up my mind glock or 1911 when you find a glock that is still functioning accurate and ready to rock with no major breakages when it passes the 500,000 round count, I will consider one until then I will keep my 1911 and change the recoil springs out every 5,000 or so.

    Re: Need 155 gr.SMK for my 6.5 Swede Try 140gr. SMK, Gameking or Nosler BTHP with the right load you can get 1/2 MOA or better. Actually 120s should do even better, but I have not got around to loading them yet.
