I had to pick up a Glock loading assist thing from my LGS. Works great.

I predict you will be happy with how it shoots. It's amazing, to me, how well they engineered this pistol.

I have a P365, bought about two years ago--on sale plus military discount took the sting out of the price. Great gun, terrific ergonomics. BTW, its either 10+1 or 12+1...not 13+1.

I would put that money towards an old Clausing 8520 mill and tooling. That would be able to easily turn 80s into 100 lowers, and do just about anything else you might want to do in the future.

I, for one, didn't know Valor was a thing of the past. I did read, just a day or two ago, that nation-wide gun sales are once again on the increase.

Nicely done. I would make some kind of support (maybe dowels or threaded rod) for the outer ends of the rifle rack arms. Over time, those will probably droop and fail. Otherwise, I would love to...

For this, I used Birchwood Casey Perma Blue. The re-blued area is inside the stock, so I figured cold blue would be fine.

At this point, photos of the T-bolt are pretty useless. It's a 1967 Belgian made Browning, which unfortunately put it at risk for being a "salt wood" gun. On disassembly, I found that inside the...
