    Lyman Reloading Handbook 49th Edition

    Thank you to each of you that responded to my question. I never expected such a detailed reply. I've been giving it some thought to get back into reloading after 40 years. I sold my Gold Wing, my Corvette, I don't golf anymore, I don't bowl anymore so I need a hobby now that I've joined a...

    Lyman Reloading Handbook 49th Edition

    When I look at the data for a cartridge, I see the letters BC and SD with numbers after them under the bullet type pictured. Can anybody tell me what that stands for? It's been 40 years since I reloaded and I used a Speer Handbook and don't remember seeing this before. Can anybody help...

    LC9s Pro magazine problem again

    I'm thinking about getting an LC9s Pro and have been reading the threads about the magazines dropping for unexplained reasons. There's mention of USA magazines and the ones made in Italy. Now I understand from reading the threads that the ones marked "Made in Italy" work better than the USA...

    LC9, anything good about it??

    I've been reading this forum for quite a long time and I see mostly bad remarks about the LC9. Don't get me wrong, I own one but it makes me wonder if I should trust it enough for carry. With all my doubts, I bought the new LCRX because, basically, I'm a revolver man and have been from the...

    LCRX...Got it

    I would gladly post a photo if I new how. I have pictures on my computer but don't know how to get them to show up here. I've done it before but my age and ignorance is showing up more and more these days.

    LCRX...Got it

    I went to my local dealer to get my name on the list for the new LCRX and he stunned me by saying he just got 5 of them in a day or so ago. So, needless to say, I bought it right on the spot, so they're finally arriving at your LGS.

    LCRX..How long to wait??

    Well, Ruger sent me an e-mail telling me of the LCRX. The only drawback I've had for the LCR was DAO. I'm a revolver guy but I do have an LC9 and have been looking for a light weight .38spl revolver like the LCR but not just DAO. With this new LCRX, they got my attention. I called Ruger to see...

    Magazine spring question

    Ok, thanks for the input. I feel better now but the 20 year test might not work since I am already 65. Haha!!

    Magazine spring question

    How long can you leave a magazine fully loaded before the spring loses it's stength to advance another round? I have an LC9 that I carry and use for home defense and it doesn't get the range time you guys seem to get. So the magazine stays fully loaded 24/7. I'm a revolver guy with not much...

    Added a new LC9 to my lineup

    A lot of you guys are experienced with the LC9 already and so I thought I would ask if there is anything I should know that isn't in the owner's manual? I bought the Blackhawk pocket holster because I knew that was the way I'm going to carry it. I've tried carrying my .380(Bersa Firestorm) in...
