      Shotgun "registration"?

      If I buy a shotgun from out of state and have it shipped to an FFL for background check, is that gun permanently "registered" in my name? If I sell that shotgun, would it still be registered in my name? Is there a permanent record kept at the FFL designating that the shotgun is in my name...

      Gift shotgun registration

      Feel like I've seem this discussed in the site before but can't find a thread. If I purchase a shotgun as a gift for someone, do I need to register it in my name and then have it transferred to them? Sea like that would be the process but just want to make sure.

      Recommendation for gunsmith specializing in Beretta shotguns?

      I have a 25-year-old Beretta 687 Silver Pigeon that I cracked the stock on prety severely shortly after I bought it (I had it in a soft case on the front of a 4-wheeler while grouse hunting, hit a tree, and did a real number on the stock). Being only 15 at the time, my father had a gunsmith...

      New (to me) Remington 11-87

      Just received a Remington 11-87 with a fully rifled cantilever barrel that I found on Armslist. Nothing too sexy about an 11-87, except I was pretty happy to find one with a rifled cantilever barrel in excellent condition for $450. Once I get some optics to mount on this bad boy, I'll have a...

      FFL fee question

      From the "find an FFL" website, FFLs list their fees for receipting and transferring fee. Most list a long gun fee, a handgun or regulates firearm fee, and a NICS fee. If I purchase a shotgun from out of state, do I pay the long gun fee plus the NICS fee? If so, damn! Between those fees and...

      All kinds of questions about shotgun sale

      I am selling a shotgun, and I have a very interested buyer in Louisiana. Problem is, we are both pretty clueless how to proceed. 1) in a situation like this, how is payment usually made (I don't have payola account), and when is payment made. I assume I ship nothing until I have payment in...

      Help me understand HQL requirement

      Just want to make sure I understand the regulation (and apologies if this isn't the right topic area to ask this. If I have a Hunter's Safety Certificatr that I acquired from the state of MD 25+ years ago, does that satisfy the training requirement? Not clear if it does or if the safety training...

      My first deer

      Until this year, I've been much more of waterfowl and upland game hunter. I'd hunted deer, but haven't done so in years, and never actually shot one. Well, my wife has an uncle in southern MD, and he's been telling me to come down and deer hunt with him for the past few years. This summer, I...

      Colt Single Action Buntline Scout .22 LR

      I just received this sweet looking revolver from the estate of my great uncle. Had no idea he even had this gun. Still in its original box, with original owner's manual and owners cards, indicating it was purchased in Long Beach, CA in 1959. Unfortunately, there was a wire cleaning brush in...
