      Something cooking in NY?

      Considering that he was really referring to THOMAS Gage, it wouldn't have revealed much. John Gage was a fictional LA paramedic...

      Bail Denied for Gun Possession in Baltimore

      Pellet guns are used in a huge number of street robberies, by little groups exactly like this. So, yes. To me, this sounds like a robbery crew that got caught. And yes, after you smoke your blunt while you're riding around looking to do a bump and run, your car will smell of marijuana, even...

      Active shooter shooting at LEO's?

      I'm not aware of one single set of spike strips in our inventory. Maybe Special Operations has some. Never seen one used ever. So, no.

      Lots of Stupidity in Fell's Point Last Night

      District Court doesn't have juries.

      The Maryland Gun Center

      Glad to see you on here, sir. And for the record, my contacts with the Gun Center for investigations have been extremely helpful. On this forum, some members (by no means all) tend to forget that there are real crimes committed by real bad guys with guns, and that real cops have to deal with...

      Police shoot 20 year old holding rifle

      Yes. Disturbing the peace is a crime. As is disorderly conduct, in a number of forms. There are, of course, definite limits to what those words mean.

      What kind of utilities do you carry on your keychains?

      Other than my regular keys and the funny fob-that's-a-key thing for the vehicle, I just carry a cuff key and a silly little expandable kubaton made by Asp, which I've probably had for about 18 years now... at least once, it's gotten me out of a minor jam (by acting as a reaching stick, not a...

      Recent Meeting with AACo. PD re: LGOC

      Concur. Barring actual emergency circumstances, this is a bad, bad idea.

      AR10 / Any .308?

      I really like my SIG 716 Patrol rifle... cost about twice as much as the S&W M&P-10, but very sweet. Feeding her .308 is the problem, however...

      Auto Ordinance Thompson

      Ordnance. Not "ordinance". An ordinance is a law, rule, or regulation. Ordnance is (military) hardware and equipment, usually applied more specifically to weapons and ammunition. I'm a nitpicker.

      sb281 and law enforcement

      Exactly. And that is my plan, if I ever need to replace another magazine of my own, as opposed to the departmental equipment that I am issued.

      sb281 and law enforcement

      I was never under the impression that police got a "free pass" with this law... I actually thought it was more restrictive (for police) than it turned out to be, in that we did get to avoid the HQL process. Yes, some agencies (although probably not many in MD) do require officers to purchase...

      Letting my son or daughter shoot my Guns?

      There's a laugh... ASAs at roll call? You're a funny guy.

      When to introduce kids to firearms?

      My kids became curious about guns at around 3 or 4, and were allowed to handle (under very close supervision) a couple of different unloaded firearms. I think that helped take away some of the curiosity factor, and we incorporated a great deal of safety discussion and rules into those...

      Accident

      Survey has been around for a good while. Cops have probably been trying to tell people that for a long time, but some folks don't listen. The attitudes of the politically appointed police executives with available media mouthpieces are very rarely the views shared by most rank and file police.

      Police Shootout....Good Shoot? (NSFW)

      Not even really any question as to whether that was a justified use of deadly force. As for not ramming the car when he tried to escape... since he has no idea that the guy is going to shoot at them, he had (at that stage) no reason to use deadly force by ramming the car. At the second...

      20+ round magazines...

      Dealers can send the magazines that they have out of state. Even to another store that they happen to own in a different state, which may happily transfer the magazine to you.

      MSP almost caught up on backlog?

      Interesting... I did a private purchase of a 1911 in May, and got the paperwork in late September, but according to that, it was ND in June. I thought that was weird.
