      Carroll County Gun Club

      If you are in Westminster and want to shoot trap there are at least four clubs within about a 15-20 min drive. Carroll county gun club, Coon club, North Carroll Rod and gun club, and Mount Airy Izaak Walton league. A bit further and you can go to Carney Rod and Gun Club. All are nice places to...

      SHOTGUN PoRn

      You can call Browning. I did and they told me all about a Superposed that a family member was inquiring about. Very helpful and answered all my questions during the initial phone conversation. One Browning Place Morgan, UT 84050 801-876-2711 800-333-3288 Turned out it was out of his price...

      Optic Recommendations Glock 40 MOS - 10mm

      Yes, Sage Dynamics does video tests of many different optics and those videos are very informative. As far as being able to depend on it, if it shatters on one drop test than it might not be something to depend on. I agree with you that it is an option for Comps, target and plinking. I do...

      Optic Recommendations Glock 40 MOS - 10mm

      Check out Sage Dynamics torture tests on optics. Here is one on the RMR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yzpJBrLU5U The RMR withstood multiple drops onto concrete with only cosmetic damage and never stopped working. The SRO, while offering a much bigger sight window, was shattered and...

      Red dot for heavy recoil

      Check out Sage Dynamics on youtube. The guy puts red dots through some serious torture tests including a drop test on the sight while it's mounted on a Glock onto a concrete block from shoulder height. RMR seemed bullet proof and continued to work after repeated drops, while the SRO took major...

      Amateur Radio FAQ

      When I first got licensed (took tech and general the same day) my local club lent me a full set up. I did take a class with them prior to taking the tests. They lent me a Kenwood ts440, LDG antenna tuner, wire antenna, power supply, some coax and other accessories to get me on the air. And a...

      Add me to the list of people who were motivated to get a license from this thread in general and K31 in particular. I check this thread almost daily to see what additional information I can pick up on. And yes, this hobby has cost me more money then I first thought it would, but I have fun...

      Beginner trap shooting competition

      All good advice. Go to one of the clubs when they are open to the public and tell them you are new. They will put you on a squad with people who will help out. I had never shot a full round of trap and mentioned that when I first showed up. My first shot I had the wrong barrel selected...

      Amateur Radio FAQ

      When I first got my license I borrowed a 40 meter wire antenna and hung it up in my backyard about 8 feet off the ground. If I remember correctly each leg was just over 32 feet. Granted, I was not working QRP, but 85 watts isn't a powerhouse. I made lots of contacts with good signal reports...
