Thanks!... Both were gifts from my father. The .357 for my 21st birthday, and the Airweight a few Christmases ago when I was starting to carry more often.
I never keep the rounds for my CCW more than a year... that may be overly pessimistic of me, but I figure, if I need, I need it...
That is the worry that has been building in my mind. I don't know if they are still good until I fire them.
my CCW is a ParaOrdnance P-12.45...
My hands are too small to hold a .45 properly. I can shoot them... but the grip is just too big for it to be a good gun for me.
I will look for the CorBon rounds for both guns. My friend can't replace the bullets I have because he retired from the loading business. What a tragedy that was for me. He used to give me thousands of rounds at a time for free. What a great thing that was. I have never had to buy bullets before. I just used the last 500 box of his the last time I went shooting. :~(
Regarding the Glasers... Have you ever actually shot something with them? - I ask because my same friend (same friend with the loading business later) bad-talked them after an experience he had on patrol as a deputy. He was called to shoot a sow pig that had been hit by a car. He shot it at point-blank range in the head with glasers and it jumped up and ran off. He said he never used them again after that. But we did acknowledge that they are not intended for used in hard bony areas like pig skull, but instead for soft tissue areas. What do you think?
I've seen what they can do... and I buy 'em...
but, I stack glasers and Golden Sabres, two x two... two glasers, followed by two GS's etc... just in case...
too bad about your ammo source dryin' up... I gotta a Dillon RL-550 reloader... I volunteer to produce ammo needed the The New Shire...
