I'm considering going back to my first love, the 45acp. I've narrowed my choices down to the Glock 30S, S&W Shield 2.0 or the Ruger American Compact. Any of you guys have experience with these models that you can enlighten me with?

Choices choices choices….oh my gosh 

Been binge watching the original series on freevee with McGarrett and how did his shoulder holster stay up?? 

It’s interesting watching this old as series from the start, really liked it as a kid….

While some pieces parts are hokey it’s actually not horrible 

Oh and yep, even back then they were anti gun, just not as rabidly unhinged as they are now

Bottom Line: Failure! Everthing but the beverage powder, coffee and Chicklets gum was bad.

I was having a discussion on another forum and it got me to thinking. I've got some 38 special brass in the tumbler right now and figured I'd share the history of how I clean brass, and my current process.

Growing up we didn't "waste money" cleaning brass. Range brass from our weekly after church family activity which was going to the shooting range and picking brass might go through one of the vibratory tumblers but that was about it.

Once I started reloading on my own I kept the same principle. I didn't even have a tumbler for a long time. Brass wasnt too bad just got reloaded, and the stuff that did need it got put in a sock, with the end tied shut and chucked in the washer with the laundry. This method actually worked really well and the wife didn't mind it until a sock broke open one time. After that I got a good ol blue frankford arsenal vibratory tumber and would tumble with walnut just long enough to get it clean enough to load.

I didn't really worry about shiny brass until I started getting into writing, and doing videos and competitive shooting. I started to get a lot of comments along the lines of "your ammo looks like sh*t". So I started running the brass through walnut and then a final corn cob tumble post loading. This worked ok, but very time consuming. I tried some ceramic tiles from harbor freight mixed in with the walnut that that helped, but left the brass looking like it has been wire wheeled.

I finally broke down this summer and bought the bigger frankford arsenal wet tumbler and never looked back. It took a few tried to get my solution formula right, but I finally came up with a cleaning solution that works really really well and leaves the brass like brand new inside and out and doesn't have to run for long periods of time.

Just thought it might be interesting to discuss our various methods of brass prep.

He tried, really tried to behave on a liberal electric vehicle group, but the no politics rule coupled with all the gasoline vehicles are bad/destroying the environment & electric vehicles are always better and don’t pollute finally got to the Rumpster and he could no longer stay silent 

Why is it ev groups are full of pompous egotistical narcissists that get butthurt when anyone disagrees with them 

Musk is bad, Tesla is great but now bad cuz musk supports Trump and wants to get rid of all EV subsidies making them more expensive but Biden is wonderful…….

Oh and the Rivian is a wonderful ev as is the ford lightning & they are the future of pickups 

Sigh…….

Verizon announced they're discontinuing their  text messaging app and suggested we download Google messages. What garbage that is, sit through ads every time and then get "message failed to send, tap to try again. Tap tap tap, still the same result. Since everyone I know texts more than calls, this is a bonehead move! This is like a truck stop discontinuing fuel sales. My phone and my tablet are unlocked so I'll be visiting the t mobile store on Monday. They're cheaper than Verizon anyway. I called 611 and told the girl my thoughts today.
