      Kathleen Parker WaPo editorial

      I don't think Parker always gets it right, but this is pretty close. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/kathleen-parker-an-impotent-gun-control-solution/2013/04/09/cb6a6770-a153-11e2-9c03-6952ff305f35_story.html?hpid=z6 For example, she says something like - None of the proposed...

      REPR regulated, LE901 not?

      This is likely a noob question, but I just can't find an answer. Why is a LWRC REPR regulated in Maryland while a Colt LE901 is not?

      Funny teaser on Kojo Nnamdi show opening

      Fairly good NYT article on women shooters

      I don't agree with all the sentiments expressed, and am a bit offended by the stereotype of men in it, but overall it's pretty fair. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/11/us/rising-voice-of-gun-ownership-is-female.html?hp&_r=0

      Discussion on PBS about guns

      This is a surprisingly even-handed discussion considering it's on PBS. You can skip the first two minutes with the administration-leaning narrative. Unfortunately, you can't skip the commercial. The conversation is with Bruce Hartman, Sheriff of Gilpin Co, Colorado and Charles Ramsey...

      This burns me up

      I've sent off emails to politicians both state and national and was getting ready to send another round when I got this from Chris Van Hollen. Needless to say, I did not "express support for increased gun control." Quite the opposite. (My first message to them is here -...

      MCPD gone silent on scanner

      Yesterday I noticed I stopped getting Montgomery County PD calls on my scanner. I re-initialized and re-loaded my scanner data just in case there was a problem but it didn't help. I'm still getting Fire and Rescue calls, so I'm pretty sure the scanner's working properly. Does anyone know...

      Liberals own guns, too

      http://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=63197 Comments in the linked thread led me to finally address something that has bothered me since becoming a part of the shooters' community. I repeatedly see the label "liberal" thrown around as being synonymous with "anti-gun" and, by implication...

      Looking for shotgun locking wall mount

      Anyone know of a locking wall mount that will accommodate a Benelli M4 with ghost ring sights? I have a Mossberg Loc Box, which I like. I've also looked at the ShotLock and Piece Keeper, which are nice looking units. However, the ghost ring won't fit in any of them and I haven't found...

      MD CC application questions

      I'm new to the MD CC discussion and I have some rookie questions: I read about one of the ongoing lawsuits (forget which) in which MD claims a high percentage of CC application approvals. But since they pre-disapprove us with the requirement for documented threats, assaults, etc., don't...
