Elaborating a bit on the 9x18 in the 9x17 Glock 42. FWIW I don't think Lone Wolf would provide a barrel if it wasn't a proven modification. One thing I noted was that the 9x17 case head would slide all the way through the extractor while the 9x18 would not. Firing pin strikes on the primer were not centered. Looked to be a burr above the slide cut for the extractor. When I removed the burr the round still does not slide all the way through the extractor but it now goes far enough for the firing pin to center punch the primer. Now... Pictures!

FWIW with Rotor #5 brass just rolls out of the gun. #6 should make it a little more energetic. When I run the loaded rounds up in the Lee Factory Profile crimp die there is a little resistance. High hopes for this one~!

Did I tell you guys that the E clip that holds the size die decapping punch on my Dillon 1050 broke? Told Dillon.. They sent me a new one free. Also sent me the part number of a 10 pack of them. I love those guys! Just ordered the 10 pack along with a 9x18 conversion and a Powder measure for my 550.

Kind of list my head in the hardwood store yesterday. Was able to resist the Brazilian Cherry and Peruvian walnut but the black walnut was too hard to resist. 7’-10’ boards of 5/4 and 6/4 came home with me and put a nice dent in the wallet.

I just sold a couple of knives on E-bay for the first time since they "improved" their pay process. That process now takes exactly twenty percent of what it sells for. I sold one a while back ( a Strider DB-L). They said since the knife sold for more than a usual knife they were going to hold my money for up to 3 weeks (and they did). The buyer acknowledged receipt and gave positive feedback right away. They still invoiced me for their 20 percent immediately. I think I'm done with Ebay.

Outrageous. 20%? just for hosting some pictures? No thanks.
