      What did you do at your reloading bench today?

      Prepping some 6.5 Creedmoor brass for some test loads for an upcoming long-range explosives shoot. Decapped, tumbled and now trimming on my new Redding case trimmer.

      MSP advisory on AR pistols with braces

      HKPARTS. They sell the correct stocks for the MP5-22. An A2 stock can be fitted but the receiver dimensions of an MP5 vs. MP5-22 are different so you'll need to modify the stock to fit and add material to it for a solid connection. Tried it. Works ok but buying a stock designed for the .22...

      CMP Shipping to Home

      It is perfectly legal. The CMP follows state law in all cases. The CMP is a licensee and is the only FFL permitted to run an NICS check remotely and ship the firearm directly to the purchaser. They are an FFL. No intermediary requirement. After they clear the background check (they are...

      The gun dealers have any authority

      Firearms dealers are one of the few businesses where "protected classes" really don't exist in practice. An FFL has wide latitude to deny your business even if the transaction would be legal. A bad feeling or a cross word is sufficient. No one is required to sell you a gun. And while some...

      C and R transfers at in state gun shows

      Rifles can be transferred in-state on a C&R. Perfectly legal. You're a licensee. Handguns cannot be per State law. Matt

      CMP 1911's

      Can't transfer an C&R handgun on an 03 FFL person-to-person in Maryland. State law overrides Federal on handguns. Can't avoid the wait or the 77R. All the C&R handgun gives you is the lack of need to have an HQL. And since you transfer the handgun on a 4473, you don't have to log it in on...

      CMP 1911's

      The CMP will not ship directly to an 03 FFL holder for the 1911s. They must go to an FFL. This has been the stated policy since the initial round. I sent a copy of my 03 FFL to the CMP for proof of marksmanship activity but it still went to my dealer here. Yes, you will be doing the full...

      SB118 (2023) - Criminal Law – Prohibitions on Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms

      So suddenly after 20+ years with a permitting scheme that was told to be a "reasonable, common sense" approach to carry in Maryland they want to change the rules because the people are following the process they established? Oh, I get it! Too many law-abiding, compliant people in Maryland have...

      Is MD looking to ban body armor?

      Do you know how many gun shows I've been to where I've seen such signs for both State and Federal "They're about to ban body armor tomorrow! Buy yours today!". I've seen these signs, and still do, for the entire 18 years I've been a gun owner and even longer than that beforehand. It's a...

      Open Carry Risks - Don’t Get Your Gun Stolen

      Same here. I only open carry when I am in remote places. Even then it is selective. I unconcealed a firearm when I was in Arizona as it was getting a little warm with my jacket on and I didn't have another layer I could use to conceal. Today I use a second layer, even if a T-shirt, that...

      How about some GLOCK porn?

      Not very "porny" until you realize what you're looking at. Yes, folks, unicorns do exist. You're looking at one. You know you've got a keeper when your local gun shop whips out your gun to show other Glock fans and see the look on their face when they realize what they're being shown. I give...

      How did you do on B27 for MSP HGP course of fire

      I shot mine on a B34 target. 100%. I actually practice the course of fire on this size target beforehand. Got them all on target. I was having confidence issues for nothing. I shoot just fine out to 15 yards under range conditions. Matt

      Wear and Carry set ups

      I've run a couple of different setups as I've carried out-of-state regularly. My preferred setup is a IWB P365 or 356XL and at least two spare magazines. This is my "deep concealment" primary as I've carried in Florida and it has to be invisible. With a proper T-shirt you can't tell I'm...

      Three to five times a day for a month and only had one day with a happy ending. Trust me, there's a long line of us who would be on the hook for cyberstalking the Licensing Portal! Matt
