      State law on Military base

      That is a good question. I have a feeling it is as others have stated, dependent upon the base commanders and the Judge Advocates discretion. I can tell you that as far as zoning, environmental, and building codes go; the State of Maryland has no jurisdiction on federally owned...

      SB281 Loophole?

      That is why I added that little statement "banned by the state of Maryland". Maybe my description was not all that clear. If the weapon purchased in PA is on the regulated list in MD, you will have to register it upon becoming a Maryland State Resident (or go through all the HQL requirements...

      SB281 Loophole?

      The way I see it. The State of Maryland has no authority (legal or what not) to regulate laws in other states. Therefore if you are a resident of (say for argument) Pennsylvania and it was legal for you to purchase such weapon in Pennsylvania, the State of Maryland has no legal authority to...

      Hunting, when loading/unloading muzzleloader

      As long as you don't have a cap on (or primed in the case of a flintlock), your muzzleloader is considered unloaded. I often cap mine after I walk a couple yards into the woods and uncap a couple yards before walking out. Yes, Black Powder/Pyrodex is corrosive. However, most of the...

      Sad/ Scary Article

      QuebecoisWolf and wilcam47 in both your cases I would call them sloppy hunters. An honest/respectful hunter would have the ultimate respect for the land owner and their wishes. That is the only way one can maintain an honest long lasting relationship with the landowner. Unfortunately, there...

      MD State Government to Carroll County: IMPOSE RAIN TAX - OR ELSE!

      Natsb, your rain water may run north into the Hanover Impoundment. However, the excess water from that impoundment that is not treated for public use runs downstream to the Chesapeake. Plus, don't forget the discharge from the Waste Water Treatment Plant. Determination of Wetlands requires...

      Sad/ Scary Article

      I have to agree with a lot of the article though. They hit the nail on the head with several points. More and more farms being converted to developments is very true statement. Yes, deer do respond to pressure. The increasing pressure they experience in the woods/fields forces them into...

      DNR is one lame agency

      AB is right. Just go to any US Post Office. If you come across one that doesn't have any left, go to another one. You can also purchase these stamps at any of the National Reserves or Wildlife Refuges because this stamp also gives you yearly access to all the National Refuges/Reserves in the US.

      random question:becoming a farmer

      I guess first off you need to ask yourself what kind of farming you are interested in. And, the second would be (as mentioned by others) is this going to be a hobby farm or your actual career choice. Farming can be enjoyable and personally rewarding. But if you are looking at starting your...

      Stuff to do around Taneytown?

      If you are talking about Catoctin Area (I don't remember the exact Rt#), that is Camp David (the Presidential Retreat). You will not get to far up that road before you get stopped and turned around. And, that includes the adjacent hiking trails to Catoctin National Park.

      MD State Government to Carroll County: IMPOSE RAIN TAX - OR ELSE!

      Concerning the surrounding states, this is kind of where the feds became involved. The President signed an executive order (Obama seems to like this avenue) that nutrient loads be reduced by so many million tons per year (I can't remember the exact amount) by 2015 (with periodic interim...

      MD State Government to Carroll County: IMPOSE RAIN TAX - OR ELSE!

      Yeah! This is a total crock. Especially, since CC is still moving forward with their storm water retention projects. Now if we were not, that might be another issue. The state officials just want their monies, plain and simple. And, they don't care what they have to do to get it. I...

      Restoring 2A in Maryland

      In this case, how about we look at the definition of home? I looked it up and there seems to be a whole bunch of definitions of home. So, now the SC needs to figure out what exactly is a home. Would it be the roof you reside under or the property you most commonly frequent upon? Personally...

      Why does anyone need 30 round magazines or an AR15?

      Boy! This thread is getting long. And, I can agree with everybody’s point. But I believe in gun ownership, so that may sway my opinion a bit. First off when she commented as to why I need 30 bullets to kill someone. I would politely correct her by telling her that I did not have any...

      Help: MD Campground for this weekend!

      You can camp most any State Park in Maryland that has camping facilities. Check out the DNR Web site for the direction you want to travel. http://www.dnr.state.md.us/publiclands/campinginfo.asp However, you may want to check ahead of time because they do close down in the winter. Most don't...
