      Where can I buy “cheap” firewood

      Most MD State Parks specifically do not want you to bring your own firewood to camp because of the risk of insects being inadvertently transported to previously uninfested areas.

      Disposition of Unfinished 80%s post 3/1/23?

      Long ago I posted something on a boating forum about a running my boat aground. Most unepectedly that information came up for discussion more than 10 years later when I was selling said vessel. The experience taught me a life lesson; things posted on the internet live forever.

      Talbot Co, whats the skinny?

      I moved to Talbot in 2004 and really like the slower pace of life (and less traffic) compared to Northern Virginia. While you may have to travel 45-50 minutes to reach Delmarva Sporting Clays, you can also set up your own private range if you have suitable property outside of the incorporated...

      MSP Arrest Man on Gun Charges (Cecil County)

      I have to wonder about the "components used to produce illegal firearms"? Either it's a firearm or it isn't. Since when were "components" illegal unless they are themselves designated as a firearm (e.g. receiver, suppressor, lightning link/dias)?

      How do people pay for machine guns?

      It's not really any different than buying a fancy car or truck, more a matter of where your priorities lie and whether you have cash to spend. The biggest difference is that unless the law is changed, your NFA goodies are likely to accumulate value unlike that new truck!

      Guns on a boat

      If you get boarded by USCG or NRP they *will* ask about weapons very early in the boarding process. Plan for this ahead of time and respond in the appropriate manner.

      R.I.P. DD214 - MDShooters Founder

      Sorry to hear this. It was a pleasure to meet Don (and Norton) albeit very briefly at a couple of the early MD Shooters DSC shoots.

      M17 vs P320

      You can get an 80% FCU and a jig to finish it yourself. It's not that hard - probably comparable to finishing an AR lower - but definitely a bit more involved and time-consuming than a P80. By far the biggest challenge is finding a Sig caliber x-change kit to pair with it.

      Are SBR's legal in MD?

      ATF won't approve the build if it is less than 29" OAL because it violates MD law.

      9th Circuit just ruled that there is “no right” to carry a firearm

      The only people who will starve are those that are so clueless about life that they cannot help themselves.

      9th Circuit just ruled that there is “no right” to carry a firearm

      Let 2A be the catalyst for the Dems eliminating the filibuster. It'll come back to bite them in the ass and then some. Got my doubts about compliance with any serious gun ban anyway...

      FEDEX Delays - Almost 2 Weeks and no package!!

      Two weeks to receive a "two day" FedEx package from Joe Bob's in KS. :mad54: Should've saved the $4.99 freight fee and taken the free USPS shipping option. Probably would've arrived at the same time.

      just bought a knife

      I'm kinda intimately familiar with that knife... it has a leaf spring that keeps the blade moving once you thumb it to get it started. It also keeps a pretty good edge and the only time I've had any trouble with it is when sand got in the mechanism and it became "crunchy" and refused to open...

      Saiga 12

      They are a lot of fun, especially if you make them run smoothly on light target loads.
