      Is HQL necessary if you already have MD gun permit and want to add concealed carry?

        The other example I can think of is if you are in Baltimore City, and only need a firearm for the day. So you put down some money, go commit your felony, and then return it to its owner.

      Barrel Threading Needed

      Considering the prices of shipping things, I strongly suspect Duffy's is going to be the way to go. Just wanted to cover my bases. Thank you.

      Barrel Threading Needed

      I am looking to get my 300 win mag Ruger M77 with stainless barrel threaded for direct connection to a suppressor. I had multiple people recommend Duffy's and I have requested a quote. Can anyone recommend any other local businesses in the central Maryland area?

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      I believe the plan is to fly into Fairbanks and drive. One in our party is planning to drive all the way in from Iowa, so we will have a vehicle available. From the road, it is going to be a long, long walk to camp. This is why I want to have the lightest rifle I can get away with.

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      The way I see it, anything that has been around for over a hundred years and is still widely used must be highly effective. I haven't used mine yet, but I picked it up from the classifieds over at Maryland Whitetail a few years back. I am certain it will be thrown into circulation one of...

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      Self-guided, but two in the party have done this before. 20E. As a non-resident, I need 50" antlers or antlers with 4 or more brow tines on at least one side. Flights are from Sept. 7-18 I will keep that advice in mind. That is what I am hoping for.

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      I'm curious, how would the user do it? Typically higher end scopes these days will have a parallax adjustment feature included, but what would you do for a fixed parallax scope? Also, using the factory service department means factory prices and not Amazon prices. I'm not the world's...

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      Thank you MeatGrinder, I will consider your advice. Why yes. Yes I did say "rimfire." What you have to remember is, that this thing is a Leupold. No mere .30-06 will shake it apart. In fact, all of the mechanicals for both scopes are completely identical. The only difference between the...

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      Thank you, DO. I will also add to my post in having read through the owner's manuals, the other difference between the two is the parallax distance. The rifle scope is set to be parallax free at 150 yards, while the rimfire is set to 60 yards. At the maximum of 7x magnification and the...

      Leupold on a Moose rifle.

      Good day friends. I am planning to have my first road trip hunt, all the way up to the Last Frontier. My first instinct was to get some big honking elephant rifle. But after doing my online research and looking at the kind of ground we will be covering (a week in tents and walking with a...

      Shotgun Patterning Ranges

      When I asked this of my friend who just purchased a duck boat over the weekend, the response was "Anywhere and everywhere 6hp can take us."

      Shotgun Patterning Ranges

      Didn't know such a thing was ever made.

      Shotgun Patterning Ranges

      Thank you all for your input. A lot of good information there. The patterning was requested specifically because it was discussed in the hunting safety class. None of us know how well he can actually shoot, because he had never fired a weapon of any sort before the shooting test. I will...

      Shotgun Patterning Ranges

      Good day. I recently recruited a coworker to join the hunting community. He has passed his hunters safety course and purchased a 12 gauge SXP. We both live in Baltimore, and he would like me to help him pattern it before duck season. I did a search of the forums and was not able to turn...

      Nigeria, another example of why gun control will never work

      Sometimes it is the preferred method here. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/05/30/third-man-charged-in-suspected-new-york-ms-13-machete-murder.html
