Does the US military use US-made ammunition in their sidearms? If so, is there a specific brand of ammo? What sidearm model do the various branches use?

The press is great. I DE-prime with the press, but I use the RCBS hand primer to prime all my loads. I've owned this setup for about 7 years, so not sure when this press came out.

Hand primer and single stage press. Less to worry about. I can concentrate and take my time.

I prefer to keep my setup as simple as possible. All the essentials are within reach.

Yup, good old Winchester W231 has been my most accurate powder for .45 ACP.

Yipes.

Absolutely. This will be a combined effort between China and Russia to divide the world's forces onto 2 battlefronts.

Love this!

Same. And reasonably priced at about $20 per box of 20 rds.

Weather and comfort are the only reasons I change. In winter I will always wear OWB, but covered with a shirt/sweatshirt. In summer I will generally carry the same, since I work from home, but will opt for IWB when I hit the grocery store, etc. I've also found myself changing pistols only for...

My number 1 is NO DISTRACTIONS. I reload at night, once everyone has gone to bed and I can concentrate on that and nothing else.

Dude.....great job on staying aware. Glad you're OK.

If my reload data is correct for my 45-70, with 300 grain Nosler Partitions traveling around 2,300-2,400 fps, you're looking North of 3800 ft lbs of energy, if I'm not mistaken. I'll take what I've got.

LOVE THIS!!!

That was my carry piece for years until my hands needed a break. Traded a guy for an XDS in 9mm.

So glad I picked up my Marlin 1895 for $450. Such an amazing gun!

HUBBA, HUBBA!!!

Besides a different sight, I might add a wrap to my lever handle. https://hellhoundleatherco.com/products/marlin-lever-wrap-kit

Agreed. Not sure the OP wanted a conversation on the tactical disadvantage of open carry, but I certainly support the right to carry a firearm in any way, shape, or form.
