Ok .... no more a threat - a promise now!!  I have just taken a pic of some A-merc 9mm ..... I had little trouble selecting these 11 rounds from box of 50 ... remembering I have actually fired off some already.  So - shall we say - that maybe 25% or so bullets are deformed with creased jackets.  Shucks - incredible.

In the pic - the worst and most obvious ones are back row .. 2nd and 3rd from right ... the far right rear is not good but looks worse cos of light effect.  Front row left appears normal but ain't (front row 2nd from right too).. hard to get em all stood there with blemishes showing properly.  Take my word .. ALL these bullets are defective, and ''excremental'' in nature!

OK - ready for this!? ;) ...........

Hope someone will give us a *shout* when the newest *American Handguner* hits the news stands.   Most of us don't have a subscription..

I went over to a local Border's Books today, and didn't see it on the shelves as of yet.  I'll certainly post if I do see it in a store.

The 1938 Nazi Weapons Law is alive and well in the United States, and is called, "The Gun Control act of 1968", and is enforced by the modern day gestapo, known as the BATF.

Ahhh, did you see it on the stands?  I went to the local Borders again today and it still wasn't there.

BTW, I've seen a reference to the new issue of "Handguns" magazine also having the Rohrbaugh on the cover (unconfirmed). :)

Here in East Tennessee, the last issue is still on the stands -- the "Big Bore Madness" issue.  I'll keep checking.  The truth of it is that I should just subscribe to the magazine.  It's one that I always purchase off the stand anyway.

I'm worn out thinking of reading this magazine article,  I already know about the pistol anyway.. Probably more that the writer can discover to write about.  
So, I've got holsters to build, and no time to look for that book anymore ..   ;D

RJ:

I'll buy two and mail one to you.  Anyway, you need to concentrate on creating works of art, not looking for magazines.  (In that regard, I sent you a PM last night.  The wine was old and I was partaking.)

The American Handgunner issue with the Rohrbaugh article is at local newsstands now in my area with the Rohrbaugh pic on the cover and a Roohrbaugh centerfold.  ::)  Just thought y'all would like to know if you haven't already seen it. It's a very positive article!

Texas Bob:

I lost permission to bring Playboy into the house years ago.  Keep me informed of any articles of which I should be aware.
