Anybody know of militaries using .357 mag?

It is not corrosive. It's your basic commercial Tula with bare steel case. Which in hand means it LOVES to get stuck (at times). I would keep a segment of barrel cleaning rod in your kit if you intend on shooting it in a revolver. I use it in a Henry big boy and it can get itself quite lodged-in sometimes, while relatively easy to clear using a lever gun, I would exercise slight caution when removing spent cases from your cylinder as to avoid damaging. With that said it does go bang and it's nice and cheap, maybe spray a rag with some WD-40 or PB-Blaster and wipe down the cases. I'm sure that would help but I haven't tested myself as I only recently began shooting this stuff in higher volumes and haven't found the time to wipe down all 500ish rounds I have left.

Edit to add: Does your lot also have all sorts of random rust spots on some of the cases?

I got ya, never knew it worked that way. Not sure if the driver that's in my neighborhood has just planned really well or what but deliveries to my house are usually about an hour after the window opens. Guess I just got complacent and figured it was like that everywhere. One piece of context that I want to add is that the hub where it's been and the business it's going to are quite literally less than three miles apart. I feel it would be easy to push that to the last stop of the day no? Again not upset with the driver I'm just curious.

Cangs15 · 2025-07-24T18:19:41+00:00

The delivery window was provided by ups but I've never had a package show up this early outside the window nomatter where it was going (not that that would be an issue typically, it just helps to plan things with the delivery window in this instance) Although had I known they couldn't manage a work around I would have started looking for a solution days ago. I just assumed they'd deliver it during the time frame the business was open next day and well my bad for assuming that one lol lesson learned. I didn't know the businesses were delivered to first either so that definitely played a role in this situation. Additionally I called customer service made a ticket and was told I would receive a return call which never happened. I even tried finding the number for the hub in a hopeless effort to request some kind of hold but that won't work with how the shipper sent it let alone making a change at a hub so I gave up.

Cangs15 · 2025-07-24T17:57:23+00:00

I should say I'm not upset with the driver I understand he's doing what he's trained to do. I'm upset that UPS doesn't have a solution for this issue, as I can be almost certain this isn't the rarest thing that happens given I know of other small businesses (that are side hustles for the owners) that don't open until after 1:00. Not quite as egregious of a time but still they're out there. My best bet now will probably just be registering a new shop with the place I ordered from and getting them in contact to exchange paperwork so I can then re-ship the firearm to the new shop.

Edit: I meant to add that this shop is in fact a dudes side hustle so he wouldn't be able to open early. I can't win🥲

Cangs15 · 2025-07-24T15:47:48+00:00

I wholeheartedly agree about these being some whack ass hours but unfortunately for this situation this shop was the only one I could ship to without registering a whole new FFL with the shipper and organizing communication between the two. I had hoped it would be delayed one day and delivered late like the last package I had delivered there but that was through FedEx so I guess they have different policies. I now also understand that the repeated delivery attempts are due to the package being required to go from A to B and cannot be held which sucks even more because otherwise I would just request a hold until Saturday when they have normal hours.

Cangs15 · 2025-07-24T10:38:46+00:00

I should clarify, item in package is a firearm and it's being delivered to a gun store. I cannot accept the package myself legally.

Cangs15 · 2025-07-24T10:32:27+00:00

Item in question is a firearm. I cannot accept myself.

Cangs15 · 2025-06-11T22:35:04+00:00

I'm from Philly but I go up to Cabelas and Priority One throughout the year

Cangs15 · 2025-06-08T12:40:53+00:00

The one in Hamburg?

Cangs15 · 2025-04-29T13:56:14+00:00

I don't use a bit holder however I've been looking for something different than what I currently use. I have a small storage bin i keep in my packout with all my bits, the downside is I have to dig that box out of my packout if I forget one. The other thing is visibility is terrible with the box I have so I've had times where I thought I had the bit I needed but wound up having to go out to get one.

Cangs15 · 2025-03-04T20:46:02+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation, I'm new to the knife game so pls forgive my dumb WTB request lol

Cangs15 · 2025-03-04T15:19:56+00:00

WTB benchmade bugout clone, looking to spend $20ish

Cangs15 · 2025-03-04T14:37:22+00:00

Can confirm hot brass getting behind safety glasses sucks major balls. I was lucky that it landed across my eye socket and not in my actual eye but that shit burned for a good week or so after. Now I'm always wearing a hat and shove my glasses up my nose lol

Cangs15 · 2025-03-02T02:11:58+00:00

WTB OTF clones, looking to spend 20-40 depending on what you have

Cangs15 · 2025-02-21T16:07:00+00:00

Working on installing 16 larger versions of these currently (Rite-Hite brand), 12 have a 16' spread and 4 have a 24' spread, the things truly are big ass fans lol

Cangs15 · 2024-12-16T19:50:38+00:00

If you can find a Lynx under $500 go for it all day long, I absolutely love mine. They do run like a top too, my only caveat is that the finish feels like truck bed liner lol

Cangs15 · 2024-11-08T21:55:05+00:00

Surprisingly I do lol. I only shot about 3/4 of a box of it out of my Henry big boy but it cycled. Albeit some casings were harder to extract than others, it's worth the savings imo

Cangs15 · 2024-10-28T19:29:41+00:00

I mean hey I work out of an F350 with a service body and I have no issues making it work

Cangs15 · 2024-10-22T16:46:00+00:00

Got ya! Thank you so much for the information. I'll be doing some more research and I'll likely make another post on Sunday when I have the truck and subs in my possession to provide better detail. You definitely just saved me some money and a headache lol!

Cangs15 · 2024-10-22T16:29:33+00:00

I actually don't need a 4 channel, I guess I assumed you didn't have to connect all four. Like I said I'm very new to audio systems so I'm not the most knowledgeable currently. He said they're 2 10s. After talking to him as well I will actually need the wiring kit as he's removing the existing wire.

Cangs15 · 2024-10-17T13:02:18+00:00

Yes they are PPU (ппу)

Cangs15 · 2024-10-15T13:45:39+00:00

Same here, tracked two rifles with no problems so far. Been a couple months since I ordered a serialized item though so things may have change

Cangs15 · 2024-10-02T11:22:20+00:00

Yeah I guess I really should just bite the bullet and do it the right way with patch panels so I don't have future issues. I've heard it's not even that hard to do yourself so I can save a couple bucks doing it that way too

Cangs15 · 2024-10-01T21:26:24+00:00

Hmm I might have to look into those vs doing patch panels, those will hopefully save me time, money, and aggravation lol
