      Small circular mark on S&W revolver

      Not much of a revolver guy, but through some trading, I ended up with a 686-4 (which I think it means a mid-90s manufacture.) I hadn't noticed it until now, but there is this small circular mark on the left side of the frame, above the trigger and below the cylinder. I was worried it was...

      Think VA will flip back red (GOP)?

      Moving to VA has been in a long term option for years. Now that I'm at that crossroads, of course VA flipped blue. The recent gun control laws passed and those in the works are giving me pause. There are other far left proposals such as the national popular vote pact and the like that suck...

      address "too much" windage on AR15?

      I'll admit it's probably not "too much" windage, it's just that I'm a little OCD, and would like to explore something that's been scratching at that annoying part of my brain... One of my rifles is an iron sight only carbine and the windage adjustment puts the rear sight about halfway between...

      tape and pistol slides: good or bad?

      I'm toying with the idea of using grip or skateboard tape to cover up the slide cutout on my Glock 34 (to keep debris out) and also to act an aid in performing press checks with the front of the slide. Any thoughts on if this is a good or bad idea? Any suggestions of tapes to try? Right...

      USA Today presentation on mass killings

      Shocker, "assault weapons" are rarely used. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/mass-killings/index.html#title Lots of other interesting stats. I'm a little surprised by USA Today's non-emotional and rather matter-of-fact reporting.

      My new Glock 34 Gen 4

      Just finished dressing up my last pre-Oct 1 purchase: Glock 34 Gen 4. Added Trijicon HD sights, swapped in a Fulcrum Duty trigger and moved my TLR-1s over from one of my G19's. Gun feels amazing. Really well-balanced and points fast, especially with the HD sights. Looking forward to my first...

      gunsmith for FSB installation?

      I have an AR upper that came with a low profile gas block and want to have a A2 style FSB installed in its place. It's looking like barrel will have be notched, etc. Can anyone recommend a gunsmith near MoCo/HoCo that can perform this work? I already tried Atlantic Guns in SS and they can't...

      Looking for a 9mm Sig P229 E2

      Anyone see a 9mm Sig P229 in any shops recently? I'm looking for one with the E2 grips and night sights. Thx!

      Oh, Frosh...

      Not only is he anti-2A, he seems to hate dogs and dog owners too ;) "“It makes it virtually impossible for a defendant to prevail,” said an angry Del. Luiz Simmons (D- Montgomery), the House negotiator on the bill. Simmons said he felt betrayed by Sen. Brian E. Frosh (D-Montgomery), who...

      Grassroots Fight Against Misinformation and Misperception

      My father and I were at the rally in Annapolis Wednesday. We returned with new sense of hope that the process can work. It really was an honor to have stood next to so many of you. We have momentum in our favor at the moment, and we've now got some attention. But as we all know, the...

      M&P22 Dawson Precision Sights

      I got a S&W M&P22 pistol a couple of months ago. It's been the only .22LR semi-auto pistol that has never failed to function, and it's been super fun to shoot. My only real complaint was the sights. I never could get the front sight to be bright enough (even with various paints), and I was...

      ruger sp101 in 22

      Howdy all. I've been kicking around the idea of getting a small .22LR revolver for plinking fun and introducing new shooters to the sport. I've been looking at the Ruger SP101 in .22LR. I haven't heard about it, except that the trigger is a bit heavy and rough. Anyone here have...

      Just bought an AR!

      After shooting a buddy's AR and realizing how fun it was, I bit the bullet and bought one myself. I was deciding between a Daniel Defense V3 and a Colt 6920 Magpul w/ rail system. I ended up going with the Colt because it was a bit less expensive and had cool M4 markings. While waiting for...

      Glockworx Trigger Makes Me Love My Glocks

      Short: Just replaced the factory trigger on my Glocks with ones from Glockworx (Duty version - basically the non-adjustable version of the Fulcrum.) Now I love my Glocks like never before. Expensive for what it is, but totally changed my shooting for the better. Long: I grew up...

      ghost ring installation on bead front sight shotgun

      I have a Mossberg with a bead front sight and a drilled and tapped receiver. I assume installing a ghost sight on it will be pretty straight forward. As for the front - would it make sense for a gunsmith to replace the bead with a front sight or would it make more sense to replace the...

      Mossberg 590 Mag Cap Sling Q

      So I just got my first shotgun, a Mossberg 590. The stock already has a sling eyelet, but the front does not. I see that the mag cap is drilled and threaded. I'm assuming it's so that it can take a sling eyelet. Q: Are these eyelets pretty standard sized or do I need to find something...

      Thoughts on the Springfield TRP?

      Hey 1911 folks, I've been eyeing a "modern" 1911 for some time now, and a TRP (non-railed armory kote) popped up on my radar. And now of course, my lust is welling. I've done some research (various websites and this forum) but I wanted to see if there are any specific insights any of you...

      Hi there - new member here

      Greetings MD Shooters. I'm new to the forum and glad to be here. My dad taught me to shoot when I was young, and have been hooked ever since - but a long stint in MA put a hold on gun ownership. Now that I'm back in MD, I'm happy to be shooting once again. I'm looking forward to...
