      Hiking in Cunningham Falls SP

      First I did a long hike from the Manor area trailhead up to Cat Rock. Did not see many people on Thursday besides some guys from PATC working on the trail. It was 4 miles up to Cat Rock and I did a rock scramble to the top. Sunday I did a short hike from a parking lot on Rt 77. It took about an...

      visited Gettysburg yesterday

      We went to a lacrosse game at Gettysburg College and then had lunch at Fourscore Beer Company. The food and beer were good. It's not far from home, so I would like to spend some more time in the Gettysburg area. The Glen Rock area also seems cool, just north of Baltimore and off the beaten path...

      Tikka rifles

      Any experience with Tikkas? I am thinking of a T3x Lite in .223 Rem for varmint hunting. Starting to reload some heavier bullets and am having a hard time finding any dealers around Baltimore County. Any advice?

      Where to buy hunting gear in Baltimore area

      Such as a tree stand harness, hunting boots, etc. Besides Bass Pro or Walmart, west or south of the city preferred. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      re-blueing Blackhawk barrels

      I need to have some custom front sights installed on Ruger Blackhawks. This will require re-bluing after removal of the original factory sights. Can anyone recommend a local gunsmith that can blue revolver barrels?

      Schrader's Outdoors deer hunting

      Have you hunted with Schrader's Outdoors down on the Eastern Shore? I am thinking of a deer hunt and hear they have doe and buck hunts. Did you have a good time?

      How many squirrels needed for stew?

      Went out Monday and bagged a squirrel with my Grandpa's old 16 gauge H&R. Boy, I forgot how tough it is to skin a squirrel! It was a good size, but I cut the meat off the bones and put it in the freezer. I think I need at least a couple more to make a good stew. Any good recipes out there? Let's...

      The NRA is in deep trouble!

      Maybe you all already knew this. I thought it was just some shady dealing by La Pierre. But it looks like the organization and the board have violated non-profit regs and committed possible fraud. The Gangster Capitalism podcast seems to lay it all out. Not sure how they can survive this mess...

      .222 Remington?

      I have been researching this cartridge and am impressed with the accuracy and history in benchrest competitions. Recently there was a video of ptarmigan hunting in Sweden using a 222 Remington on skis. It seems like a really cool cartridge, economical for reloading, and it would be a great...

      Getting back into reloading

      It's called Virus reloading! First time in a long time, I casted boolits for 45 Colt and 357 Magnum. Got the old RCBS Lubrisizer up and running tonight and sized about 150+ boolits after heating up the machine. Now just switch over and size some for 357. I will have plenty of ammo, but when is...

      Colt’s new 1911s: legal in MD?

      Looking for the M45A1 and LW Commander in Gallery of Guns, these come up as “restricted” in MD. WTF! No 1911s permitted? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      870 18 inch barrel for cheap

      I got a used barrel for my 870 Express and it matches the parkerized finish nicely. It’s for blasting buckshot and slugs, with a nice brass bead. It cost only $140 from Numrich. The bore looks great and has a little wear on the finish. It’s my 4th 870 barrel, but I like the old pump gun. It’s an...

      Palmetto State Armory upper in 300 BLK

      Very much thinking about a complete upper from PSA in 300 Blackout to slap on top of a Colt M4 receiver. Any legal requirements to consider since we live in the crazy state of MD? The idea is to get a 16 inch barrel to go with. Also, does PSA make complete rifles which are good for MD? PSA just...

      Big Horn Armory lever guns

      How about a hybrid Winchester 1886/1892 in S&W 500 or 460 Magnum? Intriguing, I am thinking about the Model 90 in .454 Casull, but 3K+ is not cheap! bighornarmory.com Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      Schrader’s Outdoors for a hunt?

      Thinking of doing a one day whitetail hunt there. I just don’t have a lot of time for scouting and in general with family stuff going on. And no private property in the family either. Has anyone had a good hunt there? Any recommendations? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      10 mm pistol?

      Shot a Colt Delta 10 mm last weekend and it got me thinking that I need one. Ruger 1911 looks nice. What’s your favorite 10 mm? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      Where to find HKs and Walthers?

      I was at Freedom Armory last week and was looking at Walther PPQs, very impressive. That was the first striker guns that I found to be maybe good enough to buy. But that is in PA. So where is a dealer who stocks plenty of Walther pistols? I liked the PPQ Subcompact and the M2. And to top it off...

      Ruger Mini 14 buy

      Yeah, I am thinking about a Mini 14. A new ranch rifle with wood stock goes for $959 at the LGS. Always wanted one and it seems like a good idea, given the possibility that the idiots in Annapolis might try to put through an AR ban. Anyway, I always wanted one and it seems like a good idea. But...

      Guide boat fans?

      I am finally getting that guide boat after test rowing one years ago in St. Michaels at the small craft festival. I have used canoes and kayaks for years, but these guide boats are very fast row boats and even more stable in open water. But I am looking forward to doing some fishing with my son...

      FK Brno 7.5 mm pistol

      Geez, if I only had an extra $7K lying around, I would pick up one of these. It is the new super pistol, very accurate and lethal out to 100 meters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=32&v=iqaR8AkWuxI
