      Obsolete RCBS press questions

      I broke the primer arm on mine several years ago. I emailed them, and they sent me a replacement for free. So they were still available then, and the customer service was second to none. Believe me, this press owes me nothing! My dad and I got started loading with it before the Gun Control Act...

      Thoughts on buying a collection.... Pros/Cons

      I hope one of the lawyers here will weigh in, but isn't acquiring a gun with the intent to transfer ownership to someone else the definition of a straw purchase? Why would that not apply to selling unwanted parts of the collection as described here in any venue?

      Why Black People Own Guns

      There are four groups of people who I think should not only oppose gun control, but who should passionately embrace gun rights. In alphabetical order: Blacks Gays Jews Women Even the most cursory acquaintance with history and the news will explain why.

      Fmr Lt. Governor, now US Congressman Anthony Brown wants Microstamping

      He was elected from P.G. County. Everyone here is smart enough to connect those dots.

      Roof patching near Ellicott City

      Contact crfakm4. He found & fixed a leak on my mom's roof on the first try that someone else hadn't fixed in half a dozen or so attempts. Nice guy. Likes guns and antique cars. What's not to like about him? :) He's up your way, too--much closer to you than to my mom. I may be able to...

      Maryland Carry Will Never Happen

      Hogan's a major disappointment, as far as I'm concerned. From where I sit the only thing electing him "accomplished" was to get Brown into the House of Representatives, where he can wreak his havoc on the national level instead of having it confined to one state. I'm a lifelong Democrat. I...

      HEY MD SHOOTERS! NEW BLOOD

      Two things to consider, both based on what happens at the club I belong to. 1. It costs $80,000-$100,000 a year to keep the doors open and the lights on. We do not have any mortgages or other debt to service as part of, or in addition to, this figure. We also do not have any paid staff. 2...

      Where to shoot, shop?

      Berwyn, where I'm a member, is by far the closest place to Bowie to shoot. See http://www.berwyn.org. It's also the nicest, friendliest group of people you'd ever hope to meet, though membership is certainly expensive. The general membership meeting is at the DAV on 197 at 7:30 p.m. the first...

      Moving to MD

      Depending on where your family is, you may be about as close if you lived in Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, or Delaware, all better states than Maryland in most ways, definitely including all related to firearms. Something to explore and think about.

      Hello! Happy to be here!!! - Vicki C

      Greetings, and welcome to the wonderful, fun world of the shooting sports! Many people think otherwise, but I believe a .22 is the right gun for ANYONE who's never fired a gun before. The recoil doesn't beat up your body, so you can stand to practice a lot and can concentrate on shooting...

      S&W and Ruger

      You aren't going to like this answer. Emotion has no place in investing. If you buy a stock, buy it because you think, based on analysis of information (which, thanks to the Internet, is more readily- and easily available nowadays than ever before), it is undervalued. Do not buy it just because...

      MoCo Anti-gun Ralley

      I've been talking only to individual Jews and gays, not to organizations in either case. You're probably right about denial. If the people weren't otherwise so intelligent I'd think it was stupidity. I've told anti-gun Jews in so many words that if they are anti-gun they should never utter...

      MoCo Anti-gun Ralley

      There are four groups of people I think should not only oppose gun control but embrace gun ownership passionately: Blacks, gays, Jews, and women. I know pro-gun people only in the first and last categories. And believe me, I know a LOT of gays and Jews. (I know there are many gays and Jews...

      New member, new to firearm ownership

      Well, then you definitely will not be a good fit for MDS! ;) All seriousness aside, welcome. Several have mentioned them, but no one has posted them. So in case you don't know: 0. Always treat every firearm as if it were loaded. (Jeff Cooper didn't include this one but should have!)...

      Kolbe v O'Malley being Appealed to CA4

      This also seems to me to be the sort of case that is almost guaranteed to be appealed no matter the Fourth Circuit's findings. So they may well want to be sure all their I's are dotted and T's crossed since the Supremes are likely to see it.

      Carly Fiorina stance on the 2nd amendant

      Carly Fiorina is the woman who single-handedly almost drove Hewlett-Packard out of business. One of my best friends, now unfortunately deceased, was a retired H-P VP. He was as far left and PC as you can get. Because of those views it pained him more than you can imagine to say that she was...

      Attention Larry Hogan

      Maybe we just believe in letting our elected officials know what we think, not what organizations that could be described as special interest groups think. IOW, the way the system is supposed to work. If Hogan has his shorts in a bunch about the Post article I do not understand why. He said...
