      Gregory Prakas, PG County Sheriff candidate

      Does anybody know anything about Gregory Prakas, who is the Republican running for sheriff in Prince George's County, particularly his views on RKBA? I haven't found much about him at all on the net, and a search turned up no threads here. Thanks.

      .38 S&W top break loads

      Does anyone have any loads, preferably using Bullseye or Unique, for .38 S&W to be fired in a Smith & Wesson top break? (I wouldn't think of actually shooting a top break by a "lesser" manufacturer.) The gun has been pronounced healthy by an excellent gunsmith. The top break locks up tight...

      2A presentation at Library of Congress, June 24

      I'm not sure of the best place to put this. So I'll put it here. Michael Waldman, author of The Second Amendment: a Biography, will "discuss his work" (that's the phrase in the announcement I read) in the Library of Congress Mumford Room at noon on June 24, 2014. These presentations typically...

      Auto inspection in W. Va.

      What does the West Virginia automobile inspection amount to? I have a special interest car that I don't want just anybody digging into. At what age are cars eligible for antique tags in West Virginia? Do cars registered as antiques need to be inspected? Do any parts of the state have...

      "Possess" & "Receive" meaning in SB281

      I haven't been able to find the answer to this question. What do "possess" and "receive" mean when used in SB281? For example, say I'm at the range and allow someone else to fire my gun. One meaning of "receive" could be that he takes the gun from my hand. One meaning of "possess" could be...

      Need photographer for birthday party June 29

      I need to hire a photographer for my mom's birthday party on June 29 in Riverdale Park, Md. Any recommendations? I would like TIFF or other non-lossy format, but expect I'll have to settle for high-resolution JPEGs. Neither she nor I will consent to the images being posted on the web or...

      S&W top break

      I have an old S&W top break. From what I can figure out from the Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson, 3rd ed., p. 84, it is a .38 double action, fourth model. It used to be possible to push on the hammer with the action cocked and have the hammer fall. A gunsmith who I won't name told me the...

      Sighting in a K31 Schmidt-Rubin

      Any ideas how to set the sights on a K31 Schmidt-Rubin so I have a prayer of being on paper at 100 yards? I'll be using Prvi Partizan 174 grain factory loads. Thanks.

      Evernt planner in P.G. County?

      Does anyone know of a good event planner in P.G. County? I want to throw a 90th birthday party for my mom in late June. At the moment I think the list of people to invite is around 100, but I'm sure some will not show. Thanks for any leads.

      Uberti .44 S&W Russian copy

      Are there any dealers who are likely to have one of the Uberti copies of the .44 Smith & Wesson Russian? I'm potentially interested in item no. 348650. Pictures, specs, etc., are at http://www.uberti.com/firearms/top-break.php I'd like to have a look at one before I buy it. Thanks for any...

      Sabot hulls

      I have several fired hulls from Hornady sabots. Can these be reloaded, or are they just trash? Thanks for the info. I've done a lot of metallic cartridge reloading, but know nothing about reloading shotshells.

      Jeanne Marie Laskas buys a gun

      This seems like the best section for this post. If the moderators disagree, they can move it (like they wouldn't even without this paragraph :)). Jeanne Marie Laskas, who used to write a column in the Washington Post Magazine on Sundays, seems to have bought a gun. See...

      shed construction

      I need to have a shed built in the back yard. What I have in mind is something like a steel building from Sears. The existing shed also needs to be demolished and hauled away. Does anyone here do that sort of work, or know someone competent, honest, and pleasant to deal with who does...

      Springfield 1903 rear sights

      I searched the archives and didn't find anything specifically about this. I'm considering buying a Springfield 1903. Not an A3, the version with the ladder rear sight. How accurate are they? Assuming I can actually SEE the target at 100 yards, could the gun be sighted in to hit it, and be...
