I have attempted to contact you numerous times to confirm the sale and have not heard from you.  I therefore assume you are not interested so am concluding the sale to another individual.  Should any form of payment from yo arrive I will return it promptly.  Thank you for your interest.

For sale / New Starline Brass for sale
May 20 2014 10:18:32 PM MDT
During the brass panic (which seems to still be going on) I bought too much Starline 10 mm brass.  I still have 500 new cases sitting in the shipping container that I don't feel like I need or will use.  When I bought it from Midway it was $90 plus shipping--total $101.  I'll let it go to some lucky guy for $100 shipped MFRB.  SOLD TO CHARLEY

It goes against popular grain, but I have problems with Wilson.  I have had good luck with Tripp (Cobra Mags) and Check-Mate.

General Discussion / Re: 40s&W in a 10mm barrel

It's been a long time and all the info from "hot" rifles to 105 mm tank (M-60 and M-48 A2) guns is starting to jumble up in my head, but the term "throat erosion" comes to mind when I hear about people doing this.  Logic would indicate that the .38/357 would be an indicator that there is not much if any problem, but it's something I would be concerned about in the hotter 40/10 rounds.  Just don't think it's a good practice.

10mm semi-auto handguns / Re: 40 to10 MM mod
March 30 2014 06:48:22 PM MDT
Lots of folks going to 10 mm in a 1911 are using 22-23 lb. recoil springs along with Flat bottom firing pin stops and 23+ lb. mainsprings.  This is mostly an attempt to keep the ejected brass in the same county with full power loads.

Handguns / Re: Any members opt for the J-frame carry?
March 28 2014 10:28:23 PM MDT
My car/carry piece is a Mod. 60 with wide trigger and snubbed hammer.  While I keep it in a paddle in the car I have always carried it butt forward in my waste band (5 o'clock).  I have way too many others, including an LCP and officer's and commander sized .45s but feel confident with some Federal HPs.

10mm semi-auto handguns / Re: Kimber sights

That's another no.  The slides are cut differently.  The fixed sight has a single plane back from the dovetail and the adjustable has two planes one lower than the other--I just looked at a fixed on a pro carry and adjustable on the target II.

No, they are not interchangeable, Kimber uses its own cut for sights so you have to be careful to be sure sights you buy will fit a Kimber cut.  You might want to look at Dawson Precision.  They make replacement sights for both fixed and adjustable Kimber sights that are fiber optic.  I've installed their FO front sights on both my Team Match and my Stainless Target II 10mm.

10mm semi-auto handguns / Re: rock island

Had one, good gun, upgraded to a Kimber target II Stainless, better gun IMO.  I think the Rock is about the best buy for the money in a 1911 you can get.

I had two .40 STIs and a Kimber 10 mm that I have a .40 barrel for and have found that they all seem to have tight chamber throats.  They needed about .0045 additional chamber length.

The key here is in your first sentence. . ."consider yourself a law abiding citizen. . ."  find out the laws where you are going and comply.  Otherwise you are not, a law abiding citizen.

Reloading 10mm ammo / Re: Reloading Prvi Partazan brass.

Not really enough experience to talk about.  I've loaded about a half box of it maybe twice without problems, if that helps.
