      Why do you carry a knife?

      :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: Seriously though, because it's a tool, because I can, it comes in handy sometimes, it's an emergency escape device (in an accident)....need I go on?

      I'm August1410's daughter

      Welcome Maddie! If I ever have a daughter, I hope she's as interested in shooting as you are.

      An EASY and CHEAP way to get a VA CHP

      I didn't take a class per se, but I did arrange some time at the range with a qualified firearms instructor. A half hour was all it took, she agreed to provide me with a letter stating she found me proficient and safe, and I actually picked up a couple things that helped my technique. Using...

      I may not have a license to kill...

      I have one that's even more Bond-esque. Mine reads "Made in W. Germany" on the slide. This one mark adds a small premium to the weapon's value. It's like-new, in it's original box, and has had less than 200 rounds through it. While mine is post-war, it's very cold-war era which is when the...

      Gun Safes

      I got my Cannon from Costco. Great deal too. Retails for about $1300, but Costco has them online for $799 w/free shipping.

      Who taught you to shoot?

      My Dad taught me when I was about 9. He'd been shooting since he was 10 or so, but had also received military training in the Army when he was drafted to serve in Vietnam. I learned the basics of firearms safety early and have never had an accident of any kind. Dad and I have been avid...

      Lambo - Rest in Peace

      I think of him every time I see my MDShooters challenge coin. I had the great pleasure of meeting him when I went to his home to pick up the batch I had ordered from him. He is still missed.:patriot::mdpatriot:sad53: Incidentally, I've had the coin with the black line as my avatar since he...

      Little miffed at a local Range

      I've worked retail too. When I did it, we had to stay open until at least the exact closing hour. Locking up early was NOT permitted. If the sign on the door said we were open til 9pm, a customer could walk in at 8:59pm and expect to be helped. The entrance door was locked at 9pm promptly...

      Whats everones favorite Glock?

      I love my G27. Small, easy to carry, but still packs plenty of punch if needed. It's my carry weapon of choice (when I'm actually in a state that allows me to do so).

      T-Shirt Order Query

      :needpics: First, having not seen these shirts, I'm curious to know what they look like. Also, what colors do you plan on ordering them in? I'm probably in for 1 or 2 in size 2XL pending more info.

      Worst gun you have ever bought...

      There are two for me. The first was a Llama in 9mm. Couldn't tell you the model, was too long ago. Damn thing couldn't shoot 3 rds of ball ammo in a row without jamming. Sold it at a gun show in VA years ago. The second was a Lorcin .380 that my Dad picked up at a gun show for cheap (new in...
