      Sarah Brady R.I.P.

      My mother always told me, "if you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all". Sarah Brady is dead.

      Virginia Wildfire?

      The last two nights, while traveling I-81 to and from Roanoke, I have noticed a series of small but noticeable fires on the mountaintop just west of I-81 near mile marker 170. This is in the area of Natural Bridge and Cave Mountain Lake. Does anyone here know what is going on? Is it a...

      Seven Day Wait

      I just finished doing paperwork on a T/C Contender. It was transferred through a new shop in Maryland. The owner has a misunderstanding about how days are counted. I told him, "your shop, your rules, but you have it wrong". I have no plans on arguing with the man. I will pick my Contender...

      T/C Contender vs Encore

      I have been shopping for a T/C Contender for quite a while now. A single shot pistol is on my short list. Recently I have seen a few Encore pistols. Is there an advantage of one over the other? Are the barrels interchangeable between the two? Thanks for your help.

      Recommend A Scope

      A friend of mine is building his first AR. He is looking for a scope with illuminated reticule that will not break the bank. He would like a 3 X 9 power but will consider others. Any recommendations? Thanks

      Bolt Hold Open Question

      A friend of mine just built his first AR lower. Yesterday I took him and one of my uppers to the range so he could try it out. His bolt hold open does not hold the bolt open unless manually applied. I know that this is not right, but I don't know what he could have possibly done wrong. Any...

      Handgun Permit Review Board Denial

      On the last day of the month of July in 2013 I received the denial letter from the Maryland State Police following my informal review of denial. I applied during the window provided by the Woollard decision. I was one of the 365. Once the MSP quit holding the applications, I was denied. I...

      MSP Question

      I was curious about whether or not MSP knows about legal long gun purchases I have made out of state. I assume that they have no knowledge about these purchases, but I am not sure. Does anyone know for sure if the MSP has access to purchase records that I have made out of state? Thanks

      KA 73 Ammo

      I just bought 163 rounds of 30.06 ammo. The headstamps read KA 73. I understand that this is from the Pusan Government Arsenal, Republic of Korea, manufactured in 1973. What I don't know, is this safe to shoot in my Garand? I know that someone here will have the answer to my question...

      My First HQL Purchase

      Yesterday I went to my FFL to do paperwork on a handgun that I have been searching for, for quite a while. This was my first purchase made using my HQL. I have made plenty of regulated purchases prior to October 1st. The first thing that I noticed was that the forms have changed. I also...

      A2 Upper

      I just finished my first AR lower build. I have decided that I want to put an A2 upper on this. I am not interested in building an upper. I want to buy a complete A2 upper. Does anybody have any recommendations or any to avoid? Are there any hot deals out there right now? Thanks for your help.

      Tumbling and Ultrasonic Cleaning

      I was just wondering if anyone here both tumbles and uses an ultrasonic cleaner on their brass. If this is something that you do, why do you do it?

      Gun Socks

      My gun safe has gone from full to overfull and is quickly reaching jam packed. I do not want to scratch or mar my rifles. I have thought about putting them all in gun socks before they go in the safe. It would make it a pain to pick out a rifle for a range trip, but pain beats damage. Does...

      M1 Carbine

      I am not sure if this is the right forum for this question or not. If not, Mods please move it to the appropriate forum. I have received conflicting answers by otherwise knowledgeable people. Is it legal for me to purchase an M1 Carbine? I am a Maryland resident and also have my C&R license...

      M1 Carbine

      I am thinking about picking up an M1 Carbine before the end of the month. I am not looking for a museum piece, I am looking for a shooter. Any thoughts on where I might find one for a decent price?

      My wait

      I ordered a handgun from Kentucky Gun Company on 2/24. It arrived at my FFL yesterday 3/14. I filled out my paperwork about an hour after the mailman brought it to them. Now I wait. I hate waiting.

      Talked to Del. Kevin Kelly

      I was at the range today and was surprised by a visit from Delegate Kevin Kelly. I have known Kevin for many years. He is really a good guy. He is on our side. He understands guns and I will leave it at that. I asked him if he thought we had any chance of beating the anti's this time. He...
