Anyone here do any reloading? Brother and I are looking at going in on some reloading equipment. Will be reloading primarily 9mm and .45, oh, with some .357, and um, a fair amount of .38. But primarily 9mm and .45.
Anyway, wondering if anyone had some suggestions on equipment.

Don't know much about it.
Glocks do best with factory ammo.

I was curious about that. I have a Glock 21 now. I also shoot a Glock 26 that I got my dad for Christmas a few years back. I am trying to talk Mrs TFO into letting me get another Glock in .45, either G30 or 36, haven't made up my mind yet. Factory ammo is the only thing I have ever used in either of the Glocks I shoot now.
So what kind of problems are we talking with reloaded ammo in Glocks?
I wish like hell I still had my Colt. But I traded it off. About two months later Colt anounced no more pistols. I still kick myself in the ass over that.

"So what kind of problems are we talking with reloaded ammo in Glocks?'
Jamming, ejection problems, and the infamous KAPOW! self-demolition on the .40 cals.
I like the Glock but not so well I want more than one of them.

Was afraid you were going to say that.
Glock hater. LOL... Seriously, I never expected to own a Glock, it just didn't look like a comfortable gun to shoot. Then I got one of the baby Glocks for my dad for Christmas one year and got to playing with it. I am now a convert. There are a few things I would prefer it have in the safety area, but for dependability they're hard to beat.

It's every bit as safe as a DA revolver, which it was designed to replace.
I bought one because a 1911, which was my first choice, was too big for Mrs 101 to handle comfortably.
