      Legal to resell ammunition?

      I am thinking of reselling some ammunition that I will not be shooting to a friend. We are both MD residents. Quantity is likely to be between one and two cases. Does anyone know of any legal prohibitions? Would it be different if I sold it to a friend who lives in VA? I've done a search in...

      1911 grip screw won't stay in

      Aftermarket titanium grips with torx screws on a Springfield 1911. One keeps popping loose. I got a replacement from the mfr, and installed it with some blue loctite, but the screw is just too small for the hole -- and came out again. Not sure where to go next. JB Weld?

      1911 disassembly problem

      Went to clean my Springfield Operator 1911 after a day at the range today and can't turn the barrel bushing for removal. This is because the guide rod is sticking out flush with the barrel bushing. The guide rod is a two piece with a slot for an allen wrench. Efforts with allen wrench are...

      Where will the court challenge come from?

      It's clear to me that the next step in this process will be the courts. Who will be organizing that lawsuit? And how do we sign up to support that effort?

      "Gun Offender" Registry Expected to Pass

      PG County is moving ahead with the creation of a "gun offender" registry. The bill as currently drafted would make any one who violates any Maryland gun law a "gun offender." While the purpose is ostensibly to limit violent crime with guns, the law as drafted is not limited to those convicted...

      PG County Registry of "Gun Offenders"?

      Just opened my Gazette and saw the following info: On May 1st, PG County Council passed CB-14-2012, which will require "gun offenders" to submit all their information to the police and check in with them every few weeks for three to five years, similar to sex offenders. It is scheduled for...

      Trayvon Martin Case -- Another Media Misrepresentation

      NBC to do ‘internal investigation’ on Zimmerman segment As exposed by Fox News and media watchdog site NewsBusters, the “Today” segment took this approach to a key part of the dispatcher call: Zimmerman: This guy looks like he’s up to no good. He looks black. Here’s how the actual...

      File Titanium Grips?

      I have a 1911 with titanium grips. When I strip and clean it, I have trouble getting the slide stop lever back in. I cannot sweep the lever into the notch from below because the square corner of the grip is in the way. I can fuss the lever in there eventually, but it would be much easier if...

      Drug lords targeted by Fast and Furious were FBI informants

      From the LA Times: Drug lords targeted by Fast and Furious were FBI informants The ATF had hoped he would lead them to two Mexican cartel members. But records show that after Celis-Acosta finally was arrested in February 2011, the ATF learned to its surprise that the two cartel members were...

      Is there any easy link to compare the positions of the U.S. Senator and House candidates for the upcoming primary on 2A? Many thanks.

      How reliable does a defensive handgun need to be?

      So I'm spoiled. I estimate I've put about 30,000 rounds through my Glock 19 over more than a decade and I have *never* had a malfunction. Not. One. Then I decided to wander out of Glock world and have had to learn a whole new vocabulary of FTFs and FTEs. I mentioned here a while back...

      Lining it up in iron sights

      As I figure it, there are two ways to do precision target shooting with iron sights. 1) Make sure to maintain your position through the shot, so that when you come back to natural point of aim, you are in exactly the same spot you left; or 2) Have some way of lining up your shot so that even if...

      Adjustable rear sight for Glock?

      Would like to find one for Glock 19, preferably that is sturdy enough not to shift from vibration or general gun handling, and one that does not include an elevated front sight that will make the gun no longer fit in its holster . . . any suggestions?

      Do you have a Bushmaster AR15 Carbine?

      Do you have a Bushmaster AR15 with a detachable carry handle and a 6/3 drum? If so, could you please answer the following question for me: If you turn the rear elevation drum counterclockwise (to the left) to the 6/3 mark, how much further can you continue to turn it before you can't turn it...

      AR15 rear elevation drum question

      I have a Bushmaster Superlight with a detachable carry handle, a 6/3 rear elevation drum and a square (four sided) front sight post. I took it out to zero it at 25 yards as per instructions. Did eventually get shots where I wanted them. However, two things disturbed me: 1) had to move the...

      Glock Ballistics Puzzle

      I shoot my Glock with its fixed factory sights at 7 yards, typically. At that distance, for POA = POI, I have to hold high just a smidgen. My front sight is therefore not lined up with the front sight posts, but is just a little above. Put differently, my Glock shoots low -- and I've seen...

      What does 8/3 on the AR elevation knob mean?

      Eight what? Three what? I understand how to use the reference point, but what does the notation mean? Can't find it anywhere. Or 6/3? Six what? Three what?

      Red dot sight for Sig Mosquito?

      Wanted to add a red dot sight to my Sig Mosquito (.22 LR) . . . apparently requires a proprietary Sig bridge mount to mount the sight. Can't find bridge mount and red dot sight for sale anywhere, including at Sig. Am I missing something? (Other than a red dot sight?)

      Cross-dominant rifle shooters?

      I've been taking new shooters to the range and a surprisingly large (to me anyway) number of them are cross-dominant. This is not so much of an issue for pistol but for rifle it means that if they tuck their right cheek into the stock they cannot see through the sights (with their left eye)...
