SPEAKOUT High powered rounds = locked breech (think: 9mm, .45 ACP, .40 S&W, etc.). Low powered rounds = blowback (think: .22, .25, .32, .380 and a very rare few 9mm models in the past). But there’s lots more to this! RH Original Reader In 1976 I spotted a new magazine on the rack in a Salem, Mo. drugstore. It had the bold word “Handgunner” on the front cover and a feature story on the P-38. I knew I was a handgunner and had just bought a P-38 so I bought that first copy. I still have it. I became a subsriber and believe I still have most of the issues since that first. Great photos, great articles and great opinions since then. I’ve been pleased! Roger Kahle Austin, Minn. Wants To Learn I want to learn as much as I can about all of the aspects of handguns and target shooting (right now I am at 25 yards). Proper techniques with semiautos and revolvers, the best handguns for target shooting, is there a difference in ammo for successful shooting, and just about everything. The difficulty I have encountered is where to go or where to find someone to coach me in this pursuit. I called the NRA, but they had no suggestions. Maybe it was the person to whom I spoke? It may be why there are those people you described in your column one time. They, like me, really want to learn — but often can’t find the resources. I have been to five gun shops in the St. Louis area and have asked for suggestions/recommendations and it’s like pulling teeth. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

New Loads for 2011! • The patented FTX ® bullet will expand reliably EVERY SINGLE TIME! • Optimized propellants burn quickly, reduce recoil and limit muzzle flash to protect night vision. • Shiny nickel cases resist tarnish and greatly enhance low-light chamber checks. Hornady Critical Defense ammunition is available in these calibers: • 380 Auto • 38 Special • 38 Special +P • 9mm Luger NEW! • 45 Colt For 2011 • 40 S&W • 45 Auto • 357 Mag • 12 ga 00 Buckshot • 44 SPC A stunning breakthrough in personal defense ammunition design. Concealed carry and personal defense ammunition is redefined with the introduction of Hornady Critical Defense ammunition. You may have never thought about the effects of fabric and clothing on the performance of personal defense ammo. But clothing — especially heavy clothing — has a lot to do with how the bullet expands upon impact. Conventional hollow point bullets clog with fibers and fabric as they pass through clothing which diminishes expansion and causes unreliable bullet performance. Hornady Critical Defense ammunition eliminates clogging with the use of their patented Flex Tip ® bullet. Upon entering soft tissue, the tip swells and imparts equal pressure across the entire circumference of the bullet cavity. The result is UnrivaleD bullet expansion and performance everY single Time! Flex Tip ® technology guarantees 100% reliable performance in every situation. Conventional hollow point bullets perform unreliably when encountering heavy fabric or layers of clothing.
