Geee Six, They mostlikly are "pre-60's" If they are in good shape, you might want to have them checked out, There Could be some big $$$$ there. Check with Remington first... I have a box of Winchester 30-30, pre-50's, I know that they were pre-50s, thats when i got them and they were old t...

No way in Heii are they going to feel me up like that, Not unless they say i'm under arrest and read me my right's first. As if I didn't know them. And do I trust the Gov, "NO" are those things safe, Yes, so says the Gov., Do I believe the Gov. "NO" Do I have "ALL" my m...

Thank's for the info, Six; I was able to get a reply from Federal. The "NT" does stand for Non-Toxic and They couldn't say that it takes a Winchester "SP" or Remington 1 1/2 Primer, But did say they take a 0.175 diameter primer, Now, who would guess they are one in the same... Wi...

I would say, I carry the Para, P-10-45... It's Great, never a FTF, stovepipe, etc. ( BUT, I also have to say, I will NOT ever buy, or bet my life on another Para ) The P-10 was replaced by the Warthog, That will FTF, stovepipe every 4-5 rounds... Got no help from para, even after waiting 6 months fo...

Hey Guys, Need some info on a headstamp, 9mm, luger, ( FC NT ) and ( WIN NT ) #1, What does the "NT" stand for ? and #2, Does it have anything to do with the size of the "Primer" ? Thanks!

I TOLD YOU, you would love it, Why didn't you get the PT-99, Thats the one with the adjustable sight! I do love it....As for as why I got the 92 ..well that's simple...I fell in love with the looks of this "Combat" version from a picture....seriously. On the bright side I did meet my wife...

The PT92 kicks-ass ! 8) I got about 170 rounds down range of 115g WWB and CCI Blazer. Flawless operation and reliability with great accuracy. At first it was shooting low at 25 and 50', because I "dot the eye" but once I adjusted to cover the poa with the front sight it was on and shot ve...

PaiN, Did it come with the 10 round mag or the 15 ? I've been looking for some pre-ban 15's, Yea, thats right, Pre-Ban... That dirty word is still used here... :cry:

:wink: I want it ! All I have is the PT-92 AF and a PT-99... If you don't hit a combat target at 50/75 ft. with it, DON'T pin it on the toy.... I shoot more 300's, maybe a 295 now & then, Lots better then my 45's... Also great for double tap's, Good Luck with her... :D

Hey SR9 ! Yea, it has been, Lots of shooting and still working on my range, (I'll never finsh it, Not the way I want, that is). Now that the weather is turning, I'll be around a little more often... Hope you all had a good summer & lots of shooting. :wink:

Nice going PaiN, You will love it... In fact, i'm sitting here typing this with mine on my hip... One thing, Be careful getting a holster, You have the rail, it will not fit a lot of holsters, like the Berretta's.... Now all you need is the PT-99... :wink:
