      Acting Superintendent, Md state police

      State FOP Lodge is endorsing retired Major Nick Paros ...I've met him before, decent guy and he actually said someone in licensing gave him trouble when he applied to renew his CCW a second time. Said he made some calls and got it straightened out right away so he knows first hand the BS people...

      Just got my Advantage Arms Glock 17 conversion kit....

      That's what I thought but wanted to make sure there wasn't some crazy regulation MD had passed. Thanks

      Just got my Advantage Arms Glock 17 conversion kit....

      I was looking into getting a .22 conversion kit for my Glock....does anyone know if the purchase needs to be done through an FFL in MD or can I have it shipped straight to me from a seller? Thanks

      Question about carry permit

      I just sent in my ccw renewal and forgot to include the paperwork from the 8hour course. MSP sent it back and I had to resubmit the application with the course paperwork, which is just a sheet of paper that has my score from the qual course and signature of the instructor. The course was...

      Long Reach Area in Columbia: Wear your fastest running shoes!

      I used to work Long Reach with HOCO and nothing seems to have changed. HOCO does have gang problems, they just don't want to admit it. Even a decade ago they had ms-13, and local gang graffiti all over the place. The leadership will say the locals aren't a gang, just bored kids playing wannabe...

      Goods For Guns -- Baltimore Dec. 15

      who cares if they get a tax write off? You think gun manufacturers don't donate to charity for the purposes of writing it off.....it's smart business. The whole point of what I said today was that 460 guns which weren't going to be used for any good or lawful purpose, be it recreational...

      Goods For Guns -- Baltimore Dec. 15

      no real connection to reality? is it really completely impossible that there are no positive aspects of the buyback? Even if 1/4 of the guns were operable then thats over 100 guns removed from people who clearly didn't want them, for whatever reason. It removes the possibility that their...

      Goods For Guns -- Baltimore Dec. 15

      As do I.....and in the big scheme of things I think that possibility is worth any negative perceptions that may be created by the buyback. I'd bet my ridiculously meager state paycheck that if someone were on the fence regarding their stance on firearms at the moment then the murder of 27...

      Goods For Guns -- Baltimore Dec. 15

      Agree 100%...just an accident waiting to happen. Regardless if they are junk guns or not they are capable of killing if accessible to the wrong people either through theft or poor storage. Will this buy back decrease the crime rate significantly? of course not.....but I think removing the...

      need help looking for gun for the wife

      sorry, didn't mean to steal Mopar's thunder....I started writing my post and then stepped away and didn't realize he had posted something very similar to what I said before I finished. His ideas are good too.

      need help looking for gun for the wife

      I'm going to go in a different direction here.....all of the above (changing weapons, different loads, gloves, etc) are all viable options but from what you wrote it seems the anticipation of the round firing and the flinching due to fear of the larger round and anticipated recoil are of primary...
