      Hager Hall show next weekend

      Anybody know anything about the show at Hager Hall next weekend? Is the first one out there, or not? I may go depending on about a dozen different things. Oh, found discount coupons also.

      Emergency and Survival Expo

      Not until August, but there is an "Emergency and Survival Expo" in Boonsboro. I'm sure this is relevant to the interests of some around here.

      RAM cycles?

      Hey, did you guys run off RAM cycles? I liked my convenient one stop shopping for guns and bike parts, but when I stopped in today, it looked like they were closed with no forwarding address.

      MSP finally came through

      MSP finally came through. 2/15 paperwork, got the call today. I overpaid for a Vulcan Arms V15 poly lower. Shoulda checked first, but I got in a hurry while reading gunbroker one night. Oh well. I'm planning on a 22 upper at some point. And perhaps a .40 S&W, but the 22 is for sure. But not...

      New 'Mayors Against Illegal' Guns Ad

      New ad by MAIG: According to TTAG, they're going to buy spots in 12 states, paying about $12 million. My thoughts: Could that guy be more of a stereotypical Fudd? Nice divide and conquer approach. To our legislators: "MAIG might drop a few ads now. But I'll be here to vote in 2014."

      Meet the new face of the NRA: Colion Noir

      Surprised nobody has mentioned (that I've seen) that Colion Noir is now signed with NRA News.

      FYI, How a Bill Becomes a Law

      Yes, this refers to the process in DC, not Annapolis, but it's essentially the same in MD. Given how many folks have forgotten, failed, or simply not taken a civics class, it seems a reminder is due: Replace "House of Representatives" with "House of Delegates", "Congress" with "General...

      Issues for a soon to enlist sailor?

      GF's kid is going into the Navy. I believe he has already taken his oath and his ship date in a month or so. Right now, he's staying with us while he waits. Went to the range, and he seemed to really enjoying revolver shooting. Because he has been such a PITA and because he seems to be turning...

      Just wanted to say thanks

      Just wanted to say thanks, not just to people with the fancy 'moderator' tags, but to everyone here. Despite the idiocy that goes on in many threads (even outside the WC), when it gets to the meat and potatoes, guns, this is a top notch board. People are informed and generally helpful. Incorrect...

      Banning assault weapons won't save us from bags of feces

      Only police and military should have bags of feces. NFA for ostomy supplies?

      Lube choice

      I've seen lots of people with 'Molon Lube' in their signatures, but I cannot find it in the stores anywhere. Is it worth tracking down? Is it any better than WD-40 and Miltec?

      Marlin 60 Tube Magazine

      My brother (father? That house, anyway) has a Marlin 60. The West Point model that I think was made for sale at True Value that has a little medallion of a furry woodland creature in the stock. Someone (I think my brother, but he won't admit it) managed to remove the magazine, which then got...

      22/45 Target in stock?

      Anyone stocking a Ruger 22/45 Target? (FWIW, Engage has a Lite and a Threaded model, but I want the Target) New or used.

      LEOs and increased carry

      This is a bit off the path of the other threads on carry, and likely to devolve into the usual LEO hatefest, so I started a new thread. I was wondering if it is SOP when encountering a person with a firearm to clear the gun? Are there different rules in place if it's a person with a permit or...

      Think I found my gun

      Since the GF was going out of town, I decided to rent a gun she probably wouldn't like. I had been wanting to try a .357 revolver for a while. Went to range and got a S&W 686 with a 5 inch barrel and 7 round cylinder. And I liked it! Shot a box of .38 and a box of .357. I'm a lousy shot, but...

      Rights for Felons?

      So you think there are no stupid questions? I may have one... Can a person who is a convicted felon borrow/rent a firearm at a range or private club? It seems to me that a convicted felon cannot touch a firearm under any conditions, but I just wanted to verify it.

      Beretta 92 finishes and sights

      Anybody have any comments or thoughts regarding the Inox finish available on Berettas vs. their bluing? Also, on the current new guns, is the front sight post easily replaceable? Might all be moot points if I find a used one. GF would like to save a few ducats.

      Buckmark pistol questions

      So after shooting numerous .22 lr autos, my gf has decided she likes the Browning Buckmark. She rather specifically seems to prefer what I think is the Challenge model. It was one we rented at Gilbert's, and IIRC, it's a dead ringer for this. I do recall the checkered wood grips and the narrow...
