      WTB: Pedersoli Pennsylvania Long Rifle .50 cal flint

      Hello, Industry Partners. I'm just starting out on the black powder path, recently acquiring a Hawken .50 cal percussion cap rifle. But I've long dreamed of going a little more old school and getting a Pennsylvania Long Rifle flintlock. I see that Pedersoli has a nice selection...

      Stuck with bad ammo?

      Hey, everyone. I need some advice. A few months back, I made a bulk purchase of some 762X54R ammo for my Mosin-Nagant from one of our Industry Partners here, and now I've discovered a problem with it. I was all psyched because it was marked as NON-CORROSIVE ammo, so I thought it won't be...

      Initial Range Review: Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9 mm

      I'm back from Accurate Guns & Ammo, in Loveville, MD, then the Myrtle Grove range in La Plata, after picking up my new baby and taking her out on the town (so to speak), and let me tell ya, she's a sweetie and a hottie. We made such beautiful music together, we both had to have a cigarette...

      Looking for some Mosin gunsmithing...

      Hello, Industry Partner friends. I have a 1933 Mosin-Nagant 91/30 Hex -- which shoots great and I love firing it, whenever I can get a round into the chamber. But the bolt action is in need of more remedial attention than I, as a noob, am capable of providing at this point in my gun-loving...

      Designated Collector in the house!

      Two days after engaging in his first Curios & Relics transaction at the Nation's Gun Show, somebody just got his Maryland "designated collector" letter from the state po-po when he got home today. Psyche-a-palooza! :party29: As if my bank account needs any more of that kind of...

      Is Depression a CCW Disqualifier?

      Hey, everyone. A couple years ago, my GF was on medication for depression for about six months or so. Looking over the MSP application for a conceal carry permit, would that disqualify her?

      Ruger LC9 for pocket carry: holster? no holster?

      I bought a Ruger LC9 on Saturday; can hardly wait to take delivery. My plan is to pocket carry inside the house. Should I get a holster for pocket carry or not? And if "yes," can you recommend any holster in particular?

      Waiting list protocol

      I posted this in the Water Cooler, but since no one responded there, I thought perhaps it is more appropriate here. Hi, everybody. What's the protocol or consensus on gun customers being put on multiple waiting lists for a certain product? I'm interested in a particular handgun --...

      Would this be legal in Montgomery County?

      Does anyone know where I could find out whether the following conduct would be legal in Montgomery County? Should I check with my chief law enforcement officer in Rockville? Should I check with the MoCo's sheriff's office? Should I check with the Maryland State Police? Or would the Maryland...

      WTB: Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9mm

      Is anyone taking pre-orders for the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9mm? It's my understanding they aren't available for sale in Maryland until July 3, but if someone has them in stock, I'm interested in one. Also, any idea what price point you'll be selling them at? MSRP? Lower? Higher? And...

      My first Mosin-Nagant!

      Just got my first Mosin-Nagant this weekend, and I must say, after buying one, I can understand why people get more of them. To be able to buy such a historical weapon for such good prices -- $150 (probably overpaid) -- is fantastic! And it's a bad-ass firearm too. It looks epecially bad-ass...

      Better for a noob? Rock River Arms LAR-15 Entry Operator2 or Smith & Wesson M&P15-22?

      Hi, all. I stopped into Atlantic Guns in Rockville today to see what they had in AR-15s, and was shown a nice-looking Rock River Arms LAR-15 Entry Operator2, which Atlantic says it gets a very good deal on at around $1000. But being just a noob, should I just start off with a basic like...

      Best Repeating Rifle?

      Hi, everybody. One addition I'm thinking of making to my collection is one of those classic repeating rifles. So I wanted to ask you all: What's the best repeating rifle? Which repeating rifle provides the best bang for the buck? What repeating rifle is the cheapest to shoot and...

      Smith & Wesson desktop wallpapers

      Hey, everyone. I've already searched the forum for this before asking; having found squa-douche (sp?), I've decided to post a new thread and ask if anyone has, or knows of, or can point me in the direction of, a groovy Smith & Wesson desktop wallpaper. Ideally, I'd like to have one...

      Just purchased my first handgun!

      On Friday, I pulled the trigger – pun intended – on my first handgun purchase, buying this Smith & Wesson M&P22 LR. :party29: Of course, I have to wait for my seven-day waiting period to expire. Can hardly wait to get my baby and take 'er to the range and pump a ton of lead down range...

      Shotgun Defense Class

      Just signed up this afternoon for a shotgun defense class at the Gilbert Indoor Range in Rockville, about 3 miles from my house. Being a noob, I figured it would be a good idea -- and probably a lot of fun. :party29: If anybody has any tips -- what to look for, what to look out for --...

      Hello, everyone! Just joined; first post; just made my first firearms purchase last week: a Mossberg 500 Field 12 g shotgun, 28" barrel; and fired it for the first time earlier this week at the Gilbert Indoor Range in Rockville! Psyched! :party29: And I'm happy to have found you all...
