Noob question here. Never done any competitive shooting and thinking of trying it out. I live in Washington county so Thurmont is only 40 min or so.
I see in April they have Steel Challenge, IDPA and USPSA (plus a 2 gun). What's the difference (overview)? I remember reading some threads a few...
My brother and I were talking about this recently, and via a search I found ICE FDT (https://icefdt.com/). Anyone know anything about them, taken their classes, etc?
I rented one along with a M&P Shield and a P365. I loved everything about it but it wasn't as accurate (for me) as the others. At 5yds, my 10-shot group was like 5" for the GX4, vs 2" for both the 365 and M&P. I loved everything else about it, and I still hit the silhouette, but I plan to get...
For sale is a lightly used (several hundred rounds) HK USPc .40, made in Germany. Comes with original box and two mags.
I purchased it as a v1 but installed a light LEM kit. I kept the manual safety but have the original parts if you wanted to go back to v1 or remove the safety. Includes a...
It seems pretty clear to me that you have to treat dogs the same as human threats (probably akin to someone with a knife). During my W&C class they pointed out that in MD we're not a Stand Your Ground law, so we have a duty to retreat as long as it's safe and practicable to do so. Unless someone...
Just talked to a guy at a gun store that bought one off of Wish for like $60...it was red LOL. Drilled a hole in the end and started shooting, said it was great, on par with commercial suppressors. No guarantee how long it will last, etc, but for the price it's prob worth a shot.
Here's a guy...
I built an AR pistol with a BCA barrel and have the same issues, it struggles to feed. One issue seemed to be with the CMMG mags, the edge of the case catches on the front of the mag. I dremeled the front edge to be lower and it seems to help.
For ammo I've also been using the Deer Season XP...
I got two of these when I bought some feather flags, I don't need them anymore. Might work for gun/rod cases, but they're not padded. Free to good home, pickup in Hagerstown or I go to Frederick weekly on Fri nights and we could meet there.
They measure 7" x 60", lay pretty flat and open pretty...
I found an almost-full box of .270 Barnes X bullets, see pic. Qty is 49.
Would trade for .22ammo or ammo/components for 9mm, .40, 350L.
Located in Western MD but I'm in Frederick almost weekly.
Yeah, as others have mentioned, it appears they got trigger happy and then realized they couldn't do a rule (they mentioned it being guidance, not a rule) without a longer comment period. My guess is they'll wait til Biden is in, appoints a ATF director, then form a rule with official comment...
Thanks for the heads up OP, I'd never heard of Open Fields doctrine. It's pretty disappointing and I can't see how this is legal. I understand that outside people can't have an expectation of privacy, esp in a truly 'open field', but some of these cases (wikipedia, agweb) where DNR are using...
I just got my BCA pistol length upper and I've been sighting it in using the Deer Season XP ammo. I bought a CMMG mag and was getting relatively consistent FTF (every other round or so). I noticed that even when I tried hand stripping the mag, rounds were getting caught on the front edge...
I got a BCA upper too, and I'm using the 150gr Deer Season XP ammo from winchester. Just putting some rounds thru it (pistol length) but so far so good.
I agree with others that I'm not sure I'm going to spend the money to reload it. Considering it's a hunting round for me, I got the Winchester...
I live west of Hagerstown. For gun ranges, there's the Izaac Walton league and the North American Rod and Gun Club. I think the South Mtn R&GC is just for hunting/fishing, no range.
I used to be a member of IWL, they have nice ranges, everyone I've met has been friendly, and it doesn't seem...
This is awesome info and just what I was looking for. Thanks especially on the heads up on Endo mags as I hadn't heard of them, and to you/Outrider on the MP5 heads up.
I think I've decided to start with a 350 Legend over the 300BO for hunting. If it's too much recoil in a pistol I can always...
I probably wouldn't go this route as I'm trying to keep the costs down and I know how much HK values their stuff. I think if I went the AR9 route I'd go with Glock mags.
