    Range, Al. Near Brewton.
    Thought I had a trade deal worked out. Talked my bride thru changing the trigger out on one of my glocks. Complete, with 3 rd test fire. Slide release spring was giving her trouble.
    Trade fell thru but my bride learned how to do another gunsmithing task becides building AR lowers. I'm a very lucky man. :)

    Cleaned up this PSA lower home build. Might trade it off at the next Hadji show for something new. Just not sure what would be fun to take to the range? I've never owned a lever gun....

    The relocker part it the hardest part of that job. I would have replaced it with an S&G.

    Ran QC and boxed about 6K .223 rounds
    Yes, that relocking piece is a challenge and I was so happy that there was no glass break locking mechanism in this one. The original was a La Gard and it gave me 14 years of good service. Using the 3000 was more plug and play so I went that route. S&G is good technology for sure.

    Nice work on the rounds, much respect.

    Busted out my NY reload... a la Jim Cirillo fame. These are 2 S&W Model 10-5s. Need to add a Colt Cobra to really complete the set tho!

    They are both plug and play ;)

    My buddy was off this past week and loaded 12K. The first 2 buckets were 50 ct boxed and the 2 buckets we didn't get to will be bulk 1K packs.

    I've been sorting and organizing some of my pistol brass that for years has resided in various smaller receptacles. .45 ACP, .40 S&W and 9mm are now in new 5-gallon buckets...damn, I have a lot of brass.

    I also loaded some jacketed & lead.44 mag ammo for my Model 29.
