Most "minimum" password requirements these days are at least 8 characters, with uppercase and lowercase letters, some numbers, and a character or two, like $&@!*+ etc... We've had a lot of folks who only used their SASS number, or duplicated their username for their password, or used words like "password", "secret", "SASS" "Colt" "Ruger" or some other easy password. It's time we caught up to the rest of the big, bad, digital world and keep the scammers at bay. We are still deleting, without notice, personal information such as email addresses and phone numbers from your posts, when we see them.

This is a good idea. Most "minimum" password requirements these days are at least 8 characters, with uppercase and lowercase letters, some numbers, and a character or two, like $&@!*+ etc...

Just delete some of your old messages to free up some room. Then you'll be able to receive messages again.

This thread went sideways. Some posts and responses were hidden.

Yes... Yes, it did. People should be able to state their opinions without garnering personal attacks. Those, and posts that replied that quoted the remarks, have been removed.

I have not seen a 209 conversion made for U.S. distribution. Thankfully, the supplies of percussion caps seem to be flowing again. I too have enough cylinders to shoot a 6-stage match. But, I went with stainless steel, so I just rinse the cylinders and put them in the sonic cleaner afterward. Done. I no longer mess with rolling paper cartridges. On Fleabay, I found some rubber seals for the rear and front of the cylinders, cheap. Because sure enough, you will shoot a multiday match with at least one day in the rain.

same!

I don't use anything on the shells themselves. The shotgun has been properly honed. When I reload the shells I use a MEC Super Sizer to make sure the base is properly sized. Then I use Rubicon Ryder's shotshell sizer, (sold by Scarlett Darlin'), mounted on my cart. It makes sure that there is no bulge at the business end of the shell and tapers it about 3 degrees. (SASS Legal). Reloaded shells, and even some factory shells, have a tendency to flare at that end.

We have a shooter at one of our clubs who uses a CFDA holster on his right side, in every way it looks just like a SASS competition holster. You'd never know the difference if it wasn't for the deflector. He might have had the same person make his left-side holster. It matches perfectly.

See the SASS Wire FAQ forum for the "Cowboy Gunsmith" thread. He is listed under "Texas" as Boomstick Arms LLC
