I would have rather had the FDE, but the black looks sharp.

I am waiting for the copy of the BATFE form from the FFL for the free ammo.

Took me about a month to get my ammo.

Got the 4473 today. Faxing it on monday...

I have 400 rounds here right now (200 ea 195 and 197) I am going to buy 500 from Cabela's. That will put me at 1100 pieces of brass to reload.

The timing of the ignition is critical to the safe operation of the 5.7 pistol.

Also, resizing the brass causes severe structural problems in the case neck/shoulder area, as there is a lot of displacement of the shoulder during firing. This is part of the design of the pistol, and it's delayed blowback operating system. As some recent events have pointed out, 5.7x28 brass is probably good for only one resizing, at most.

This isn't like reloading for a 1911.

Please be careful.

Be very, very careful reloading this round.
